I love that frilly, femine skirts like this are in style - they can be both fun and elegant at once, and can make us feel like little girls again.

They’re also super versatile. Do it without leggings for a night on the town, or with leggings for a less scandalous daytime look. And not to toot my own horn, but the result looks pretty darn professional! I’ve gotta give my stepmom credit for the look’s inspiration. She’s always classy in all-black-errythang, and has a bunch of lovely batwing tops in her wardrobe. Heh, my knees are all banged up from kneeling on the floor making patterns and cutting fabric all morning.
