Peace of Cloth Panticular

I bought this in black to wear with jeans but liked it so much I ordered it in another color. You could also wear this with dressier outfits as it has a more polished look than other corduroy shirts. Fits very well and true to size. It's a bit thick and stiff but not a huge drawback.

I wanted to love this jacket, and I kept trying it on in hopes that it would look better on me, but it always looked just very odd. I'm 5'2" and maybe it would look more reasonable on a taller person. The way the bottom part flares out just at the hips made me look like I was quite heavy there, or bulky, or chunky, or something. Back it goes.

I am petite (5'2") so this skirt is a little long for me, but I will have it shortened. It would be very nice for a tall person! The fabric is lovely and can be dressed up or down - perfect for many occasions. And, because the fabric is not "black" (I bought it in the Aluminum color), this skirt will be excellent to wear with a black top - I had been looking for such an unusual color for a while. The shine of the fabric and the cut of the skirt make it especially elegant and versatile - good for business dinners and also with a casual sweater for daytime. I also have the Aluminum shirt, which I wear as a "jacket" over a simple top, and this makes a fabulous outfit! As for the fit - it is absolutely fine for me -- I'm a bit heavy in the waist but not too broad below the waist, and the cut of this skirt fits properly in all the right places! The fact that it has the wide, shaped waistband allows it to sit in the right place on me and even has a slimming effect - hurray! Also, I am over 65 years old, and it doesn't look too young, but it doesn't look dowdy or plain - very special! I gave it only 4 stars because it does wrinkle, so it may not be that great for travel - otherwise it would be a 5!
