I think tights deal with the short skirt issue very well. Of course I <b>would</b> say that since I just bought a short dress to wear with tights! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-knits#post-1393939 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 14:14:05 +0000 Robidi 1393939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful color on you! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-knits#post-1393903 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 12:41:22 +0000 donnat 1393903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice. You skirt isnt too short. I do know how you feel though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-knits#post-1393902 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 12:38:30 +0000 Neel 1393902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Weirdly, I don't have problems wearing shorter tube skirts. But I want tights for flared skirts! Just makes me feel more covered!</p> <p>Fun outfit Shannon in your most flattering colors. And aren't those docs one of the best buys </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-knits#post-1393901 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 12:36:51 +0000 Deborah 1393901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous! And I don't find the skirt too short. I wonder would an opaque tight give you a little more coverage to make out feel more comfortable? Just a thought as I think this is fine:). The dark red is such a divine colour on you Shannon and you are the reason I purchased a dark red top recently:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-knits#post-1393896 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 12:29:46 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1393896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been having issues with shorter skirts on myself lately as well. &nbsp;I think yours looks great though. &nbsp;I really like the proportions of the outfit and think the shorter skirt elongates the legs and is very flattering. &nbsp;That color is fab on you too and the black seems to really put it at center stage where it belongs.&nbsp;</p> <p>Have a great day Shannon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-knits#post-1393893 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 12:26:18 +0000 Jaime 1393893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that color on you Shannon. I feel the same way about above the knee skirts and dresses - why do tights make us feel so much more comfortable? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-knits#post-1393892 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 12:26:06 +0000 Anonymous 1393892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks rich and cozy, Shannon! I don't think the skirt looks too short. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-knits#post-1393890 Mon, 10 Nov 2014 12:24:58 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1393890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I realized after I got dressed this morning, that everything I'm wearing is a knit. And I feel sooooo cozy and comfy as a result!</p> <p>I started today's outfit with the EF Dark Tulip skirt. This skirt borders on too short for my comfort level but paired with darker tights takes that discomfort out of the picture. I would not feel the same comfort with bare legs.&nbsp;I then chose a knit black tank and then topped that with the Dark Tulip asymmetrical cardigan. To keep the leg line from being chopped up, I chose my black Docs for footwear. My black leather handbag and red specs, gold watch and wedding band finish off the outfit.</p> <p>Thoughts on this outfit? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Skirt and cardigan: Eileen Fisher (eBay)<br />Tank: Sears<br />Tights: Hue<br />Boots: Doc Martens (eBay)<br />Watch: thrifted<br />Handbag: Danier Leather</p> <p> </p>
