When I posted my last remix archives with the green skirt, I mentioned that I had bought 3 of the same skirt at the thrift store in three different colors. I hemmed that green one to be a bit shorter, and this one shorter still. It's a bit *too* short, so it doesn't get worn as much, unfortunately, and as you can tell from these photos, I haven't worn it in a couple years. I still have it, however, as I do love it and can't bear to part with it. As I age (I know, I'm only 26, but still), I've found that I don't feel as comfortable wearing shorter skirts. I don't know why this is, but I have found that a few of the items in my closet that I love quite a bit don't get worn very much simply because they're a bit shorter. I am certainly not getting taller! Maybe I just don't want to be paying attention to not flashing people all day. Shorter skirts are definitely higher maintenance in that regard. Perhaps I flail about/bend down more these days (I definitely bike more)? Haha, who knows. But either way, I keep this skirt in my closet as I still do want to wear it, so maybe I'll pull it out and pair it with some tights again.
