Dani's ChoiceBasic Solid Stretchy Cotton High Waist A-line Flared Casual Skater Mini Skirt

Okay, if you're shopping for clothes on Amazon, you know the PAIN of shopping for clothes on Amazon. The item looks amazing in photos - great cut, good drape, nice fabric. You cross your fingers and order, hoping against hope that maybe this time you'll actually get the pictured item. Then what arrives is something that looks like it was assembled out of used tissues in the dark by particularly inept preschoolers, and sigh, it's off to the post office you go to return it.Well, if all that is running through your head as you consider this skirt, you can relax. This is that rare Amazon clothing item that is EXACTLY as pictured!The first thing I'm going to gush about is the fabric, because it is SO NICE. It's exactly the right fabric for this skirt; not fancy, but sturdy, long-wearing and well-suited to the cut. It's a great heavy weight, somewhat like a heavier sweatshirt weight (without the fuzzy backing). It's got good body to it, which means that the skirt actually does flare out like in the photos instead of clinging or hanging limply. And it just feels good quality - no picking, no catching on roughened fingertips, and washes and dries with the regularly laundry with no fading or pilling.The second thing is the cut, which is again spot-on. It's got that great skater fullness and flare with a hint of ruffle while not being so full that it becomes a statement piece, making it an ideal wardrobe blender piece that can be worn in many different outfits. The length is ideal, too, falling midway down the upper leg - short enough to be cute, long enough to actually cover your rear. For office wear, it's a great length for wearing over tights or leggings. On me (5'9", 30 inch waist) the large fits perfectly with the waistband hitting at true waist and the bottom hem hitting at fingertip length. Sizing was spot-on to the manufacturer's chart. The waistband is sturdy, so you'll want to make sure you get the right size, as I can definitely see it being uncomfortable if it was too small.Oh, and you know that delightful (sarcasm) Amazon clothing thing where you buy an item, like it, and buy a second one only to discover that the company has apparently been taken over and what arrives is an evil clone that looks NOTHING like the first item you got and is about three sizes different? Well, I can attest that the second skirt I ordered is absolutely identical to the first, so yay!

I'm 5'9 so if you're near my height warning this thing is short, looks gorgeous standing up but I definitely would recommend leggings or something if you need to bend over. The elastic in the waistband started twisting after wearing it twice, but it never slid or rolled. The material is nice and thick I put on a pair of shorts underneath and you couldn't even tell, the flounce was perfect.

Mini flare skirt fits as expected and well made. Soft and comfortable

I love that this skirt has pockets. It is very flattering. Wear it casual or dressy. It just works. It’s my go to skirt. Good material.

At first I really liked it. It’s cute. It’s nice it’s comfortable. It was perfect lengthBut then we washed it, and it just keeps on getting shorter and shorter

Cute skirt, true to size and fit. A closet must have.

Bought this cute skirt to Disney bound. It’s perfect for it. Great fit, cute and great weight fabric! I’m going to order more in different colors.

Taille trop grand et donc la jupe ne fais que de descendre je suis déçus .

I love this skirt! It fits well and looks great on any body type!I will definitely be ordering more in other colours.I'm only a small 4'6 tall so I'm guessing that the skirt will be a little shorter on others but for little me the length is perfect :)

Great little skirt. I actually bought it as part of a 1980s fancy dress outfit but I've worn it several times since. Really good quality and length and it hangs beautifully.

Wow this is a great little skirt. I'm a size Medium or a 10-12 on my bottom half with quite wide hips and I ordered a Small in this based upon the other reviews. It fits great so I can recommend a small if you're normally a medium. That said if I wanted a slightly more baggy "gypsy" feel to this skirt then I can see that a Medium would also work. However my advice would be to start with a small in this and you will be satisfied.

I was a little worried when ordering this skirt because I am a chubby 5'10 girl and I was scared it would be too short and look stupidBut it's fabulous, length is perfect, figure hugging and got here within 2 days of ordering!!!
