I am trying to find a replacement skirt should anything happen to my beloved blue denim one from Marks and Spencer.
I saw this one in Matalan but I'm not too sure.
The waist is too hight and the length a little short.
The fabric isn't nearly so good.
Today I wore:
Boots - Clarks
Skirt - Matalan
Shirt - Boden
There's a similar one in the sale on the Esprit website: http://www.esprit.co.uk/?LKZ=GB. I can't seem to link to it, but click on "Women", "Skirts", "Sale", "Single Pieces" and it's there at the bottom, on a model with a Breton Shirt and black boots.
ReplyDeleteGreat skirt!

I quite like the Matalan one as well, it has a nice embroidered hem. I know what you mean, though, it is very difficult to find a proper replacement for favourite pieces!
ReplyDeleteI love the tie waist on this skirt as well as the hem. But I understand how hard it is to replace a favorite piece - this is just a great substitute :)
ReplyDeleteThis one is nice but somehow doesn't quite replace the other. Maybe it is the detail at waist/hem that gets in the way for me.

This is not bad, Jane, but I think the M&S one is nicer. Maybe it's just because of the bow, I don't know. Ciao. A.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous - I can't see the skir tbut I love the website. I will be back.
ReplyDeleteJanet - I will be along shortly.
Biba - you are so king
Eek - yes it is so hard to ever think of losing this skirt.
Darla - I think you are spot on.
Antonella - I agree totally.
i think it's cure although i personally prefer the other one...
ReplyDeleteToo bad it's not a perfect replacement... the trim along the bottom is so pretty. I really sympathize with you, Jane. I can obsess for years over trying to find perfect replacements for favorite pieces. I often find that with all the time and energy spent on such a search, I could have just made a relacement myself or commissioned the making of one!

ReplyDeleteYou can find it by typing "denim skirt" in the search box.
Funny, I was just thinking last night that I need a new denim skirt. Good luck finding yours!
ReplyDeleteIf you love it so much you should get one made to the same style. There's a place near us which is just fantastic, and so reasonably priced.
ReplyDeleteI love the length, though! You look so country chic here.

Some things are so hard to replace!
ReplyDeleteI do like the new skirt though, the detailing on the hemline is lovely.
