I just posted about this on my "Sizes and more Sizes", but just wanted to let all the gals in on this wonder of wonders! I have such difficulty finding appropriate summer clothes for someone my age and size, and I'm not alone, I know! I just received an amazing item I ordered off of QVC.com, from the Women With Control line, their skort! I haven't seen skorts since I was a kid! This is a heavier knit skort (a skirt with a short built in), and it has a control top!!! It is a swingy skirt, and it comes in several colors AND in petite sizes as well as regular. I ordered both regular and petite to see which would work for me, and BOTH do!! I washed them, no shrinking evident. This is quite a find for me, because I'm still on the fence about shorts, and I like to have something cooler to wear. So have fun with it girls...if you need more info on the product, just ask on this post and I will get it for you!

What a coincidence. After not having come across one for years, I just bought a skort in a really fun print this week. It was at a local consignment shop. I wasn't sure if I could get away with wearing it, but your post gives me permission.

Oh yeah, this will be my undoing (I AM easily amused, after all!)!!! These things will last for years, and I am thrilled I found something to replace shorts! They never did look good on me. Maybe we'll start a trend!

I just checked them out. I am so excited to buy some, but I am still fitting into clothes in my closet at this point.

I have never posted a photo because of privacy concerns, but I just might post a pic of me in my new skort. I want to be a trendsetter.

We may be just starting a trend here! I am loving mine, I got them in olive, navy, back and cherry. For fun, I also got an olive and a navy in the petite, for a little shorter, sportier look. I plan to wear them with sneakers, and also sandals. The nice thing is they look good with the shirt tucked in OR left out! We are having WAY too much fun here (like I said, I am easily amused!!!)!

I love skorts. I bought two in twill,one khaki,one black and since they look like skirts Ilan on wearing one Monday to work with hose on Monday.

Have fun on that shopping spree! I went to Shopko today, while visiting in Billings, Montana, and found some great leggings by French Laundry. Who know I would be in a size medium already?! I like them because they are firming and don't show the "jiggle" as much!
