Angie, your approval means so much to me. Thank you - you've just made my heart sing:) The trousers have in fact loosened up quite a bit today as I wore them around town, but they are still tailored, not fluid. They are very comfortable, though. I will have to make peace with my decision for a while now, but if I regret the size later, there is always the opportunity to add a second pair in a more fluid fit. I agree that it is very pretty. Filippa K keeps this particular wool fabric in navy, black and grey as a staple throughout the seasons so customers always have the opportunity to add more pieces to their collection that will match what they have already bought. They also have another style, a wide leg/boot cut that could be a beautiful addition, although not as practical for my lifestyle. I tried it and loved how it looked. The skirt was a serendipitous find, and I love it already. I can see a lot of wear in it. The dress will become even more useful as Spring approaches, I think.
Viva, thank you for your generous words! I'm humbled.
