Following on from my earlier posts on trousers, shorts and dress, here is the latest instalment of Project Streamline – skirts.
Grey patterned skirt with lining and ruffle
PROS – I love the style, always get positive comments
CONS – slightly too big in the waist, only one top that I can wear with it
DECISION – keep and continue to wear, alter the waistband to improve the fit, consider this skirt when buying more tops
Black skirt with lining and ruffle
PROS – I love the style, plenty of options of what to wear with it
CONS – the style is not as obvious in plain black, I have another black skirt which I prefer
DECISION – keep and continue to wear, probably would not replace it as I really don’t need 2 black skirts
Black crepe skirt
PROS – length, weight and style
CONS – NIL
DECISION – keep and continue to wear
Black and floral skirt
PROS – good fit, nice fabric, pretty
CONS – only suitable to wear with one top, 7 years old and I am just about sick of it, some of the embroidery is starting to catch and unravel small threads
DECISION – will probably be the next thing to go
Black and white striped denim skirt
PROS – good fit, comfortable
CONS – nil
DECISION – keep wearing it in the warmer weather
Floral skirt
PROS – good fit, get positive comments, I like it
CONS – only have 1 top to wear with it
DECISION – buy/make more tops to wear with it
Pink cotton skirt
PROS – bright colour, comfortable
CONS – several years old, won’t last forever
DECISION – keep it and continue to wear
My skirt collection is all about what I wear in public – unlike my trousers! I have not included a skirt which I put aside when I first started Project 333 back in April as it most likely will not go back in the wardrobe.
Much and all as I have loved the floral embroidered skirt I think it is almost time to let it go. Other than that the rest will stay for the time being.
Pity the floral skirt has to go as it is very pretty. 🙂
Maybe it will go – or then again, I may hang onto it for a bit longer. Still debating……….
Yvonne you are so good with your sewing, make a top or two to go with your floral skirt. A plain colour may suit one of your other skirts that only has one top also.
I am certainly looking at making and/or buying plain tops. I have identified that most of my tops are patterned so the patterned skirts are a bit of a problem.
