...I promise you that I didn't plan on making this an all out "Skirt Season" - it just happened - and I just went with the flow. I do love skirts (guess you've figured that out by now), all types, but especially knit ones. I had been looking at Mimi G's pencil skirt for months, even watched her YouTube video. My friend Ebony had made it twice, and vouched for it's simplicity and great fit. But truth be told friends, I'm just sooooo in tuned to sewing by pattern only - that I rarely venture into DIY land. But since I'm already d-e-e-p into the skirt demilitarized zone, it wasn't hard to heed Mimi G's call to "Show Off Your Stuff" by using one of her tutorials and then posting to her Flicker group.
Since our "faux spring" went back into hiding and "real winter" returned today, I decided to wear my Mimi G skirt with my jersey 1001 dalmatian top that I made last year, and my beloved boots.
I felt my sense of style was well rewarded when the Teaching as a Profession instructor asked me to model for her class as "the way to dress professionally on the job" example. The icing on the cake happened when later in the day a student called me "Fierce". I have to say a bit "THANK YOU TO MIMI G" for such a stylish day...
