Midi-Length Full Skirt (Asos, $63)
The swishy, knee length full skirt is really hot right now. Reminiscent of a bygone era, this skirt is bright and perfect for spring. I’ll take one in every color.

Another month has come and gone, and between a busy work schedule, illness and the search for new childcare, I almost forgot to ask for questions for the AMA. Luckily, I remembered late last night. So here we go. I always think it’s funny when people send rude or overly personal questions when I put […]

I love stocking stuffers. They are the best part of Christmas. There’s just nothing quite like an affordable gift that’s funny or useful or chic (or maybe all three). So here is Part One of my stocking stuffer gift guides, where nothing costs more than $30.

In the name of fiscal responsibility, I’m taking a shopping respite through the end of the year. When you write a fashion blog, not shopping is like being a person on a diet who moves into a McDonald’s. But I’m determined to flex some self-discipline now that my holiday shopping is done.

Since my daughter was born, Amazon has claimed so much of my money that I had to buy stock just to get some of it back. Between the formula, onesies, fruit pouches, diapers, wipes, and ever evolving list of baby development gear, I could not survive without Prime. My husband no longer notices the […]

Belle, How would this look on a gal with a thicker bottom half?
As a girl with a thicker bottom half, if you can define your waist and choose the right length, it would probably look just fine. Experiment and try on a number of skirts – there can be a big difference in a skirt that hits right above the knee, right at the knee, or just below the knee. The most flattering length for my larger calves is just above the knee; showing my kneecap creates a longer line. Even at 5'11, a skirt that hits me just below the knee (unless it's a pencil) makes me look stumpy.
Great pick! I ordered a few things from ASOS as soon as online ordering became available in the U.S. and I've been meaning to order more. I'm heading over to the site to see what they have now!
B's right. It's all about the waist, and the view from the rear. But it's definitely worth a try.
