I was really in the mood for silks and satins today even though the weather refuses to comply. I bought this skirt over a year ago and it just hung in my closet until today. The main reason for this uselessness was that I had little desire to wear it in its original state. It used to be knee-length actually (here is a picture of a skirt just like it in a different colour). My mom likes to busy herself with sewing or knitting when we watch movies at home together, so a few days ago I gave her another project to work on 
. I had the idea of folding the bottom of the skirt inward and sewing it onto the horizontal middle seam and the skirt was turned into a mini in the course of one movie. The entire skirt was double layered to begin with so after the adjustment the bottom part became quadruple-layered, giving it something of a tutu-style silhouette. The final result was a little different than I had imagined – more coquettish and girly – but at least I’ll get some use out of it now.
What I’m wearing:
- Silk jacket by “ETRO” (as seen in Mar. 8’10)
- Silk Cold skirt by “Mademoiselle Parasuco”
- V-neck t-shirt by “BDG”
- Long chain necklace with a large Swarovski crystal pendant (as see in Jan. 29’10)
- Tights by “Givenchy” (as seen in Mar. 7’10)
- Silver multi-chain bracelet (as seen in Mar. 20’10)
- Vintage leather boots (as seen in Mar. 16’10)

love this look! and love the location for the pix, it matches the outfit perfectly! lol.
Love the look and how you combined stripes with florals. The skirt looks so much cuter after your mom’s alteration.
Thank you Daphne. I think so too. Somehow I just found its original length and style so unflattering and unwearable as it was.
