The New and Improved Striped Old Navy Skirt!
After a brief hiatus I'm back and my skirt has been shortened!
Do you remember my striped ON skirt that I've worn a few times here and here? I was always on the fence about shortening it. When I had to have it taken in after the illness last year caused me to lose weight I decided to just shorten it too. I really, really love it now! Take a look.
I think the new length makes it younger and fresher, though my Mom still calls it the old lady skirt. I paired it with a thrifted navy J.Crew silk tank (That is VERY linty, sorry) thrifted Banana Republic wedges (NWT) my pink Kate Spade bag, a gold belt, my Target bangle, and my blingy necklace!
Do you like the shorter length?
Top: J.Crew, thrifted via Goodwill
Skirt: Old Navy, very old

I totally don't think that skirt looks old ladyish. The new length is perfect!!
That tends to be my favourite way to wear skirts. Sometimes anything shorter is just annoying, and though I love maxi skirts, I know they're not always the most flattering.

Something About That
Exactly! Plus, maxis aren't always easy and breezy. Sometimes I don't want all that fabric around my legs.
Thank you Yaudy.
You should! Depending in how much length you want home you can always make a faux hem and see if you like it the shorter length.
I know! I like that too. Plus, it has pockets. Who doesn't love pockets?
Thank you!
That made my day kacie! Thank you 😊
I don't know why she thinks that lol. I thinks it's bright and fun!
Thanks Tara. I think it's a lot more flattering now.
That's a beautiful skirt. I love the colorful stripes, and that Kate Spade bag is to die for.

I love that skirt on you! I actually own it as well and love the length on me but I always prefer midis for my height.
good call shortening the skirt - it looks really good knee length!

Lol! My Mom calls this my granny skirt, she said it's for old ladies.
Thanks
! It was on sale too!
Thank you Ines!
I bought it because it was a midi! And then I realized I'm barely over 5 feet tall...midis are not my friend. But I didn't want to get rid of it.
Thank you!
It works much better on my short body this length!
I was already taking it in so I figured why not?
Thanks I will!
well i certainly do no think so!
