Just an update from yet another pink skirt purchaser!
I've been loving my new J. Crew pencil skirt (in burnt ochre) and was dismayed that the bright purple was sold out, so I jumped on the Halogen band wagon and ordered the pink. I followed the advice and went down a full size from 4 to 2. Mine just arrived last night and I'm wearing it today! The regular size is perfect in length--to the knee and I'm almost 5'10" and the fit is ideal--the 2 is none too small! I love the color, the seaming and the fact that it's lined (I think all fitted skirts should be). I've paired mine with grey tights, black booties and a black ruffled turtleneck--pics to follow, but just wanted to get my endorsement out there in case anyone remains on the fence!
