High Waisted Skirts

[Cicciolina]

cutxpaste I'm looking for something like the you posted EXACTLY. That was what I have in mind! I just don't want to pay US$300+ for a skirt :S I've had a look at all the chain stores and can't find anything like that.

such an awesome look!
i bought a nice gray high-waisted pencil skirt last year, but it's very business-y and so quite limited in the tops i can pair it with. i'm looking for something a bit more flirty and fun that i can wear more casually and mix it up. any suggestions?

I don't think she looks very good. The skirt is too tight and pulls across the front. Also, the skirt is too short on her---a knee length high waisted skirt usually looks better on most people, especially shorter people. Most of the ones posted in this thread from a variety of websites show knee length, slightly above, and slightly below knee length with good reason---they look and fit much better than the minis.

perhaps for a more flirty / fun look, maybe a high-wasited tulip skirt that ends at or just above the knee? with tops that are tucked in, it can be dressed up or down.

This is my high waisted leather skirt - originally it was long but I decided to cut it it is with a belt but can be also worn without :

Daggi, that skirt is hot! Where is your skirt from?

I mentioned this in the "Trends we Love" thread long ago... high-waist skirts are to my liking. Since skirts are more versatile than pants, you could even take a regular-waisted skirt (as long as it's not a mini) and simply wear it higher up. Add a belt for a little leverage, and what do you know? You're fabulous!

It's taken some time for me to admire the high-waisted bottoms. Then again, it takes time for me to get over most looks like leggings under short skirts. I seemed to catch on with high-waist skirts a bit easier than high-waisted pants and jeans. Post #172... that's a lovely combination. That's a lovely showcase of chocolate brown. And like chocolate, that's a sweet look of yours! Lovely! Almost like a dress look.

ClosetCupcake , John_M THX I'm so glad that U like my skirt

John_M You're absolutely right - it's got a dress look

ClosetCupcake - I bought it in a small boutique in Poland with clothes from Italy , the producer's name is DIVINA - it makes only leather clothing

Skirts with belts is stupid and looks rubbish.

I don`t think so

rubbish look doesn`t depend on belt...

 

[John_M.]

I tend to disagree, Prudence Pureheart. One can look tasteful with a belt with a high-waist skirt. Some probably just wear those for aesthetic purposes if there's no trouble keeping on the skirt. Again, high-waist skirts can be lovely and more versatile than high-waist pants/jeans/shorts.

Sheepskin boots tucked into jeans is rubbish. Open-toe boots are rubbish. High-waist skirts with belts aren't.
