I’ve had my eye on a denim skort all summer long. I found one a while back at Zara but for whatever reason that do I just didn’t pick it up to buy. Maybe it was the length or the fit? I can’t remember but it wasn’t a match for me. I was browsing the internet two weeks ago, professionally of course and then I saw this one from Mango. Immediate add to cart, as I loved the look of it and it looked long enough for me. And guess what? It is a HIT. It’s such a nice replacement for denim shorts but works for when I want to wear denim shorts but need to look a bit nicer.
I did size up because I get scared ok? I’ve been burned by Mango in the past and I always err on the side of go bigger. I am in the large and it is big in the waist. However, it is a lot longer and it’s easy to tuck things into and smooth it out. So waist wise I could do a medium, length wise the large is perfect. So if you are similar shaped and are taller, go up a size! If you are shorter and you don’t need room in the waist, stay TTS. All in all, I do think it runs generously.
And I just know you’re wondering — but what does the back look like, Kendi? I got you girl.
Mom shorts. They look like mom shorts. Is it my favorite look? No. But as I’ve said for years now, what the back of my outfit, hair or backside looks like is NONE of my business. The length is long enough for me, quite comfortable, too. Now let’s move on thank you very much.
PS: my top is Zara! Lightweight and a perfect pairing if I do say so myself. Find it here.
