Banana just added this to their website, and I think it's adorable! It's $78.

I've got my eye on a J Crew denim skirt. It's supposed to hit above the knee, but it's not so super mini. It also looks like a softer material, so I don't think riding up will be an issue. The bonus is that it's $60 and it's on their final sale so I think it's free shipping. Hmmm....I think I just talked myself into buying it! Here's a picture:

I have a ?tulip? shaped one that I love that I got last year at Forever 21 of all places.

By tulip I mean it is fitted through the thigh and then flares out.

I love the one that shopchicago33 posted.

these are all so cute! The BR one is great, but I think I'd have to try it in person. Generally I stay away from circle skirts or anything A-line, because it ends up making my legs even more chickeny-obvious. But maybe if the material is soft enough?

lilmonkeyj - if you get the jcrew skirt, please review! Their stuff usually fits me strangely, so I am not brave enough to order final sale.

I also still really want this one (it looks so pretty on shopchicago) but I cannot pay this price for it.

Halleybird,

I just ordered it, so I should get it next week. I'll let you know how it fits! If you are interested, you might want to check sizes available before getting too excited about it. I ordered a petite and luckily my size was available, but there were only two sizes left in petites. I hope it works out since it's a final sale, but I've been having such a hard time finding the right length (above the knee but not mini) that I had to order it! I'll page you when I get it.

yeah, it looks like they don't have my size. There's no way I could do petite -- I need the length! I hope it works out for you, though!

I own that Jcrew skirt and love it. It's a good length and has enough stretch in the material that it doesn't seem to ride up or twist around like some denim skirts do. I think if you can find one with a little stretch in the material or a thinner denim then what you'd find in jeans, it will fit better.

Not sure if it's what your looking for but I bought this one recently at Express and really like it.

Here's a shot of me wearing it just to show what it looks like on a human. I bought it for spring but have already worn it twice this winter (after getting the tights/boots idea from Shopchicago)

I actually really like the one you post Halleybird
