LOVE My New White Skirt!

If I could have any casual white skirt in the world - this would be it

It's long, flared, gorgeously cut, super comfy, plenty breezy, crisp, substantial, not see though, and like wearing my beloved white jeans in the form of a skirt!

I had the skirt altered, and now it fits perfectly.

Worn 5 times in a couple of weeks. LOVE this skirt! Forgot to take pics of the outfits - but remembered to take these yesterday. Errands, WFH, grocery shopping, and doggie walking.

New glitzy gold loafers are getting a workout. Very comfy, and complement most of my Summer looks. They filled a major wardrobe hole.

Excuse the bad pics - in a rental for longer. Jo in a collar to match

Thanks for looking. Waving at my skirt sisters! xo

Looking fab as always! Can I ask what alterations you had done to the skirt? I gave away my blue denim version because it was too long for me and didn't seem like the hemline could be shortened.

Thanks, April! These skirts are impossible to hem, IMO. You are right. I left the length. Had the hips, seat, and waist taken in.

Very fun skirt! Looks fab on you! I’d be tempted but I’m not tall enough.

Fabulous - especially in pic # 10 and #11 !
Fun skirt for summer!

Kookaburra

Fabulous skirt - also unique and original, so will not date. Not surprised you’ve worn it so many times: skirts & dresses are the best in summer, nothing beats that breeze up your legs. Looking forward to seeing you in some more skirts perhaps?!

Brooklyn

Looks fabulous Angie. If I spotted a skirt like that I would probably buy it and dye it a Brooklyn colour. Love the asymmetry and the frayed hem. I think the fit around the waist and hips is critical for that style, so I’m not surprised you had it altered. Great result.

Joy

Looks like a great white skirt. I found a second hand white denim skirt with a big front slit about the same length. I also got a faded blue denim skirt with low cargo pockets and front slit at the same time. It is the same length. I love them both for summer. They look very much like those featured by Angie in her blog post last month.

Gorgeous! It's such a fun style with that wavy hem. It seems to bookend your wavy hair in a way.

Stunning! Love your gold complement so much, especially with your hair.

OMG Angie , adorable white skirt, really special, great shape and made just for you. You look wonderful.

Walking the pups in gold loafers and architectural skirt. That is a cheery picture!

Dee

Ouu..total love for that skirt, great length and silhouette so you can move with ease in it. I’d be a little nervous about it being white, but you have your magical ability to keep whites clean.

Love! This is just fab!

I’m already imagining the fall outfits with your tall boots.

Oh, and don’t think I missed the gold belt/gold shoes.

ChristelJ

Wow. Somehow you make gorgeous statement pieces work for everyday life in the most magical way. I'm impressed you found a denim skirt with no slit, with coverage, that you can move in, and in a really cool cut. The whole outfit is marvelous.

Roberta

That is definitely the best version of these skirts that I have seen this year. I love the swoopy, frayed hem. Winner, winner, chicken dinner!

Great skirt in the white; I had only seen the light blue and faded black from a few years ago. I just took a look and they have olive as well!

I have been wearing old rose gold loafers, and new pewter ones a lot, but my gold ones get a wary look from my husband. Will have to steel myself and give them a spin. And come to think of it, I do have a gold belt…. As always, thanks for the inspiration.

Such lovely comments coming through while I was asleep

Thanks very much, everyone!

Aquamarine, I wish the skirt came in a shorter length. Bummer

Slim Cat, Jo sends her darling tailwags and kisses your way!

Kookuburra, go Team Skirt! I prefer dresses and wear a lot of those in Summer, but love a good skirt when I find one

Brooklyn, waving at my asymmetrical skirt sister! I knew you'd like this shape, and want to dye it in a you-colour!!! I thought of you when I bought it! And big yes to achieving perfect alterations so that the skirt stays put when I run around all day with clients....and doggies.

Joy, I'm excited to see your new skirts! Major scores by the sounds of it.

Sharan, HAH! A fun wavy match. Thanks for making me laugh

Mirjana, waving at another Summer skirt sister! Thanks for the sweet words. I know you like white skirts too

Olive Green, Sam and Jo approved too

Dee, it's my one and only super power. Appreciate the love for the skirt!

kkards, belt and shoe matching sisters unite! Yes to a few autumn looks with the skirt.

ChristelJ, such gracious words, and I'm blushing The skirt is a rare find indeed. Thank you!

Roberta, that's high praise, and I'm smiling! Thank you. I like frayed hems too. A '70s thing that stuck

cat2, yes! I have clients in the olive, cappuccino, blue denim, and ashy lilac versions of this skirt. I think you'd like it! And go Team Metallic Loafers. Humbled to have inspired you

Fabulous skirt! I love it! It comes in so many terrific neutrals, too. For me it would be the white, also. I won't be buying, (because, too short), but if I were, I would also go for the white.

Waving at my bag twin.

You look so fresh and lovely!

Perfect for you! Love it.

Team Summery White Skirt reporting in! Love your passion for new wardrobe items! I can so relate to wearing a new item multiple times when you fall in love with it. You wear it beautifully with pink, red and shiny gold! If you need a matching shiny gold handbag, I have one from Zara I'd be happy to send

Thanks, Sal! You're another skirt sister I'm waving at!

Thanks, Suz! Wish this skirt came in a shorter length Then I'd wave at my bag AND skirt twin

Jaime, you are generous with your words! Thank you, and Jo sends cute tiny tailwags

Laura, waving at my Summer white skirt sister! Go Team Loves To Wear New Stuff! And I have a gorgeous gold Italian bag but it's in storage while we remodel. Should have kept it in the mix - thanks though!

Bonnie

Veteran

Cute skirt and you should have a lot of fun styling it with your brights. The pink and gold look great with it.

Joy

Veteran

My new skirts are right on target, about the same length as yours but with a slit in front. They will get lots of summer wear as they go with about any top and look good with a light jean jacket too and loafers. They are indeed great finds for a faction of the price. One was new with tags. The other is like new. Thanks for the idea of pairing white with gold accessories.

I like that pairing of the raw edge of the skirt with the scalloped (?) collar if your top! That’s smart!
