I love love the details - the way the front comes up a bit, and the pleated pockets.

You made this?? It is sooo super cute! I especially like that it has pockets! This would look soo cute with sandals or flats!

This is definitely the perfect summer skirt. You always make such beautiful clothes! I hope to make something like this soon. Is there a pattern for this somewhere?

What a simple yet very pretty skirt. I especially like the pleated pockets and the contrasting button.

Eek, the details are amazing! I love the crisp, classic simplicity of those stripes and that shape and those adorable patch pockets. Yum.

Thanks guys :) This is actually a pattern I drafted for my measurements but it's a simple straight skirt with a couple of adjustments.

I love this skirt! I have such a weakness for anything with stripes. And the yellow button is a nice touch. :)
