    So glad you posted this! I scored a navy blue knife pleated skirt and wanted to wear it to work, but wasn't sure how to make it work appropriate.

  5. Beth says:

    Belle, I'm short and worry that these midi length skirts will swallow me, or at least make me appear shorter than my 5'2(and 1/2)” frame. What would you suggest? I love the knife pleats
