Remember Weather Appropriate Footwear Week? This is the skirt the winner, Tonya, picked.

At 5'3", Tonya wanted her skirt the Ultra Mini length. At 5'10", I prefer slightly longer. That's why I decided to make 2 lengths.

The hem drops 2" in back, for a little extra coverage, and a great profile.

The rayon blend knit is squishy soft and washable. The color is fresh, with the shorter length making it easy to keep clean. The pockets remind me of the earliest green-things poking through the frozen tundra here in the midwest.

I took my skirt to the consignment store to style it and was surprised that red went with it! (Among lots of other things - check out my trip here).

Consignment stores are such easy places to bend made up fashion rules. And that's what this skirt is about. Try layering it over denim, a dress, a tunic, another skirt. Really.

I'm in the Ultra Mini here.

The hemline is clear of parking lot muck and salted cars. Oversized layers are balanced by expanse of leg. I'm able to dress more comfortably (fuzzy sweaters; oversized dusters; tall rain boots) while still feeling cute and put together.

I'm in the Short Mini here.

Erica took photos in the Pocket Skirt as well as the February Skirt. Note how this skirt is not too long! This is the Maxi Length and Erica is 5'.

By the way, this wool blend beauty is 20% off.
