too short? (part 2 of denim mini)

carmenb513 · Coach

I don't think it is too short.I'm might have to trythat skirt myself.

nicoley · Coach

i really like the one on the left... and definitely dont think its too short. Should def get it.

honey · Gucci

i think that's a good length for you.

atlgirl · Gucci

I, too, like the one on the left. I think you can always go shorter if you are going to be wearing leggings under it (or tights), but I think the length is okay on you in general. It looks like it hits mid-thigh, which definitely doesn't look too short.

And I love that you took pics in the fitting room! You crack me up!

Collette · Chanel

I think I'm going to be the only nay here. It looks cute on but I'm afriad what will happen when you sit down. I would try sitting in them first and make sure they donn't ride up too much.

Maddie · Coach

I agree with Collette. It looks like you'd have to constantly be worried about it coming up.

lsubatgirl · Gucci

i like the one on the right. i think the one on the left is too short IMO but its hard to tell with the skirt that dark and the dark leggins.

FashionPrincess · Hermes

While they're cute, I think they're too short.

tri_sarah_tops · Marc Jacobs

I think they might be too short but it's hard to tell for sure with the dark skirt and the dark leggings (this monitor kind of sucks). They both look fine in the pictures but I agree with the girls who say you might have problems sitting or bending. Would either skirt be way too big if you size up? When I bought my last denim skirt I went up a size so that it would sit lower and be a little longer. I do this with shorts all the time.

Dizzy · Marc Jacobs

Yeah, I was worried about them riding up when you sit, too. You look good standing, though.

halleybird · Hermes

I don't mind the length with the leggings -- I think it's cute. But if you plan to wear it alone, it needs another inch or two IMO.

those are both my usual A&F size (4). I've always had problems in the past with buying skirts too big and them always riding or bunching up on me so that's why I've started to buy the smallest size that fits. I do like sizing up on shorts...I almost bought a pair from F21 that had the perfect amount of sluch when I sized up.

halleybird, I don't plan on wearing it alone...I'll probably find lighter colored leggings for the warmer months. I am not quite brave enough yet to run around in minis with my thighs hanging out.

I'll only be young enough to wear skirts this short once, so I'll probably get the one on the left for myself as a summer treat. Thanks for all your help!
