I adore this Ann Taylor cotton skirt because it fits beautifully at the waist and hips BUT it is too damned short! It is inappropriate to wear above-knee skirts with naked legs in the summer at my dignified age. Other women might be able to carry it off - and well, too. But I am no Barbara Eden or Joan Collins...

Subtle stripes, size 10 cotton skirt |
 |
Oh, but it's way too short, too "school-girlish" for me... |
 |
Took apart a tube-top 'kiddie' dress & dyed it with RIT Kelly Blue |

The Plan: Add length with the new blue ruffle
|
 |
- Measured 1-1/2 inches from the inside hem
|
 |
- Pinning and ironing along the 1-1/2" mark line

What I'm Wearing Today
- Thrifted black velvet tunic
- Upcycled Ann Taylor LOFT size 10 skirt (Thrifted, too!)
- Thrifted black patent alligator texture loafers
