skirts

Anyone know where to get those spanish-style long skirts? I saw a girl wearing one in the Odeon on Friday and it looked class. It looked a little hippy-ish, but it was black / brown I think!

thanks

I'm not really sure exactly what you're talking about but a-wear seem to have skirts kinda like what you're describing.
a-wear are really coming up in my opinion these days, good range of clothes, styles and colours and not too expensive either!

If you're looking for the style secrets of anyone who frequents the odeon may I suggest a monthly dose of Vogue or Elle supplemented with weeking intake of the Sunday Times Style magazine.

I think they might have skirts like that in K-ot-ic on liffey street. They've got other skirts, anyway, of varying lengths.

I saw a black one in Monsoon - am still trying to justify the 145Eur pricetag before I buy...had one 10 years ago, got it for a tenner but I wore it to pieces...

Maybe the e145 one will last sooo much longer then?

Went shopping with partner yesterday for skirts.
Really nice gyspy style skirt in Dunnes Stores (of all places). 50 Euro. Colours were black or purple or royal blue. Very few of them left- and they aren't getting any more in. She is getting them to hold one in the Ilac branch for collection during the week (they didn't have her size in stock).

Also- saw something similar in Monsoon with her- svelt texture, velvety- really nice- but 145 Euro.

(This was before I turned on zombie mode and fell asleap in a chair beside the changing rooms...... )

I have one like this that I got in H&M a few years ago and it's very wearable & versatile.
