I am not a regular skirt wearer - my job working with small children really doesn't lend itself to skirt-wearing and neither does being a mother to 3 young sons! However, I do have 2 or 3 skirts stashed in my wardrobe which I glimpse now and then as I take out my usual jeans and shirt combo, they make me smile but they rarely come out to play.
I am hoping to wear them in the near future with bare legs and heels when this weather warms up, or with tights and boots in the Autumn/Winter (the latter is more likely in the North of England!).
Anyway, my mind started wandering on this topic and I began to wonder if there were any other skirts out there that might like to come and gather dust in my wardrobe and there are - lots of them, quite a few of which are in the Sales... Come and see girls!
