Skirt-ing the issue

I love skirts. Mostly short ones. For my petite frame (read: vertically challenged), I don't think I look good in anything below my ankles. I have a few skirts that reach my calves, but that's about pushing it.

But I am totally loving this getup.

From the round sunnies to the slouchy comfy tank, to the bright green striped maxi skirt! Imagine completing the outfit with a pair of gladiator sandals! Love!

I've been wanting to make skirts for the longest time. It seems like the easiest piece of clothing to make. Well, maybe second easiest.

I made a tank top using stretch jersey knit material before and that wasn't too bad.



I've painstakingly made 3 pairs of fisherman pants and that was quite alright too.



And I've even taken it into my head to attempt a hoodie once!




So skirts shouldn't be too much of a problem right? Especially if it has only an elastic waistband!

I'll be keeping a lookout for the perfect material to make my first skirt!
