This skirt I had to send back but it was like saying goodbye to a new friend the moment I tried it on it was like a glove and so comfy! The stretch ladies is amazing! Unfortunately it was a little snug in the back which defeats the modesty purpose for me. I took a pic for you sisters to help with sizing decisions. The model in the collage of me beside her wears a medium top and size 8 bottom. I wear s top and size 8 bottom in a line skirts. Her build looks similar to mine but I definitely need to size up since it hugs my backside instead of draping like it does on her. I’m so excited to recieve my exchange in a side 10 since it’ll give me 2 more inches in the hips and will look update once I try it on! The waist was perfect not tight at all so hoping the 10 is just slightly loose but not too big. Hope this helps, this company is AMAZING and I was thrilled with the new exchange policy changes! Seems to be an essential daily skirt if you ask me!
