I think I am staying away from natural linen color from now on.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-chance-for-this-skirt-keep-or-purge#post-1004494 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 23:00:04 +0000 Jjsloane 1004494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's not bad, but just ok.&nbsp;Do you need to wear a slip with it? Can you wear without the self tie belt? What does it hurt to keep it?

I think the colour washes you out, and if it's not as fab as your other things, you won't be wearing it very often. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-chance-for-this-skirt-keep-or-purge#post-1004485 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 22:51:39 +0000 ManidipaM 1004485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I quite like it but it won't see much use in a fashion season/years of loosey-goosey or draped tops. It then depends on how long you keep stuff for fashions to change. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-chance-for-this-skirt-keep-or-purge#post-1004365 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 19:09:17 +0000 MsMaven 1004365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a twin to a skirt I had in 1977. &nbsp;I know this is a classic style that comes around and around, but I still say let it go. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-chance-for-this-skirt-keep-or-purge#post-1004359 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 19:04:52 +0000 Ingunn 1004359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you have your answer already Love the wedge Cons! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-chance-for-this-skirt-keep-or-purge#post-1004353 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 19:01:50 +0000 rachylou 1004353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No, that is not working for me.

BTW mine was definitely SSB Maybe its time to let yours go if you aren't loving it now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-chance-for-this-skirt-keep-or-purge#post-1004297 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 17:40:03 +0000 Adelfa 1004297@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a linen skirt that color that I used to adore. Have totally stopped wearing it.

This one seems so plain in comparison. Your outfit is super sporty and fun though. I love the Cons in this.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-chance-for-this-skirt-keep-or-purge#post-1004190 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 15:11:48 +0000 goldenpig 1004190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote pass it on. I had a very similar linen skirt from Banana Republic that I used to wear a lot about 10 years ago, but when I joined YLF it got the purge vote.</p> <p>We are grey wedge sneaker twins! (Sort of, mine aren't real Converse). That top looks great on you--nice color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-chance-for-this-skirt-keep-or-purge#post-1004185 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 15:06:05 +0000 Diana 1004185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This linen paper bag skirt used to be a favorite but I haven't reached for it at all this summer.&nbsp; I don't know if I'm just not feeling the paper bag style any more (is it dated?), or if it's just the limitations of the color (is the natural linen color too close to SSB?) and style (can only wear with tucked fitted tops).&nbsp; I do like that it's linen and good for summer heat and humidity.&nbsp; Anyway, I decided to give it one last chance before I purged it.&nbsp; What do you think?&nbsp; Should I keep it around or should I give it the boot?<br />I tried the Angie laces for my Cons today.&nbsp; I felt like it was a bit too loose/insecure for me, plus I had a lot of lace left over since I don't do the top eyelets, so I ended up tying them around my ankle inside the shoe to secure and shorten them.&nbsp; It worked quite well!</p> <p>BR top, Tulle skirt, Converse Hi-Ness sneakers. </p>
