I bought it in July 2009 for £15 in the Principles closing down sale in Southport.

  4. This is a great post - and the benefit of having a blog is clear! You can really tell what items stand the test of time and which don't. That's a fab skirt - suits you and the monochrome is timeless. I can see it being worn for many a year to come. Ax

  6. You have certainly gotten a lot of wear out of the skirt. Great purchase and fun to see the variety of ways you have styled it.
