Sheer like a swimsuit coverup

I knew it would be light weight ... pretty pattern. But, unwearable without full slip or other coverage. Entirely sheer.

Unflattering.

Too big on top - the material and pattern were terribly unflattering.

Love the color!

I'm really into yellow right now ... I blame it on years (and years and years) of Zoom meetings where we all blend into the blurry backgrounds in our ever more casual company t-shirts in various shades of white, blue, grey & black. I need color people! Anyhow, I have found that wearing something that stands out actually helps me stand out (when I want to) on a call. It's easier to "find" me in the sea of Zoom-fatigued coworkers. But - holy h3ll this shirt was hideous. I struggle to know anyone who could wear it without their boobs of any size hanging out. I tried pinning it closed - nope, that looked "off". A tank might have worked in a similar color, but white just looked sad like I was trying to be sexy but utterly failing. There was just so (so) (so) much fabric and yet it was still wildly revealing. And, thus entirely inappropriate for both work, my age and ... general decency. My son, who generally wouldn't notice if I was on fire even managed an ... "Ugh, you're not wearing that OUT, are you?" (LOL, "out"? I'm a single working mom. I guess he meant "outside"?) I'm sure there are lovely people who look / would look amazing in this. I, sadly, was very much not one of them. Advise - garment tape might be advisable.

I wouldn't call it an "event" or "unforgettable". But, ...

... I really love this skirt and am seriously thinking about buying it. It's flattering, even w/ a bow that adds bulk that I do NOT need. I'm generally a size 16 these days and am kinda one of those "big all over" kinda gals - check to hips, basically. Anyhow, I struggle to find anything that I like much less love. This skirt is comfortable and cute. Easy to dress up or down. I go toward casual vs dressy. I wore it w/ a simple white t-shirt. It's cool, too. It's over 100 degrees in SE TX already and while the skirt is very well made and sturdy, it's not bulky so it was really the best kind of garment for the hot, humid weather we seem to have from March to November anymore.
