Awaiting arrival with beaded brow, quite literally.<br /> <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/120965382536?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&#038;_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2648#ht_500wt_1066" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/120965.....500wt_1066</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-maxi-skirt---am-i-asking-for-trouble#post-692883 Mon, 13 Aug 2012 20:00:09 +0000 rae 692883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What about something secondhand, made before this dreadful era of high cotton prices? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-maxi-skirt---am-i-asking-for-trouble#post-692831 Mon, 13 Aug 2012 18:45:12 +0000 RoseandJoan 692831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Go commando? It is highly unlikely to cause any embarassment in a maxi. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-maxi-skirt---am-i-asking-for-trouble#post-692826 Mon, 13 Aug 2012 18:40:29 +0000 Heather 692826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I dig a maxi skirt, and I think you are right about construction being key. Wishing you luck, friend! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-maxi-skirt---am-i-asking-for-trouble#post-692823 Mon, 13 Aug 2012 18:37:08 +0000 Mo 692823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm thinking (if the construction is right I guess) I could tuck and belt at least half of my tanks and short sleeved tops into it (so a dozen outfits or so). The trick is the right construction - drapey enough to move with me, but not clingy. Not so easy . . .<br /> Back in the 90's I'd just wear mine with crop tops lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-maxi-skirt---am-i-asking-for-trouble#post-692803 Mon, 13 Aug 2012 18:26:44 +0000 Heather 692803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Malina, check out this blog post from Kendi Everyday:</p> <p><a href="http://www.kendieveryday.com/2012/08/black-and-white.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.kendieveryday.com/2.....white.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-maxi-skirt---am-i-asking-for-trouble#post-692798 Mon, 13 Aug 2012 18:23:34 +0000 Mo 692798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I used to have a thick, full, white maxi around '91 that I loved to death. Moving from L.A. to Vegas around that time, it was indispensable in the heat.<br /> Lately I've been craving a new maxi. My green one stretched out and so I purged it before moving here. On to the white - the newer skirts seem to be rayon and modal and fabrics that I know can show panty lines at the drop of a hat. I am not going to buy a maxi if I have to then wear 'support' underwear or a slip or other hot item to make it look okay. The idea is easy breezey. But I don't want chiffon or a gauzey material.<br /> So . . . am I headed for disappointment in looking for a modern day white maxi? I have these 3 in my sights so far, for an idea of what I'm looking at. <a href="http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/search.jsp?q=maxi+skirt" rel="nofollow">http://www.urbanoutfitters.com.....maxi+skirt</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/160862477174?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&#038;_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2648#ht_4043wt_1002" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/160862.....043wt_1002</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.intermixonline.com/product/splendid+foldover+maxi+skirt.do" rel="nofollow">http://www.intermixonline.com/.....i+skirt.do</a></p> <p>Or, do any of you have a fab recommendation that is lined or otherwise not panty line panic inducing lol? </p>
