Yes! It really is an exceptionally pretty silhouette on. I am especially loving the first and fourth looks :)

You know, now that you mention it, my wardrobe is lacking in the floor length department, may need to remedy that, thanks for the inspiration!

Hmm, I've never tried long skirts, but I will have to keep an eye out for one!

Oh that last one did it for me--LOVE!!!

I mostly wear skirts that end just below the knee, but I like long skirts too. Especially in summer - here in the UK it's often too warm for tights but a bit chilly for bare legs, and I don't really like having that much bare skin on show, so long skirts are definitely the way to go!

Wow! I love those long skirts. So perfect for you!...

I definitely think they look great on you, and I think they work well in the fall/winter, at least for me. (Not that I have many of them, but still...)

Like a lot of these commenters I'm on the short side so I've generally avoided floor length skirts. However maybe with a little imagination I can make it work. I would say keep my eyes peeled but that phrase gives me the creeps. Too graphics especially round Halloween.

2009-10-29T22:12:55.177-05:00

Me too!!!! Love the long hemline (well, really nay hemline, I don't judge...). My biggest problem is finding skirts that are actually long enough for this tallness but you better believe I will be thrifting like a mad woman...once the ban is done.
ps. love the outfit in the first picture= very hot.

I love long skirts and used to wear them all the time when I was younger. Then I hit a rebellious stage and went the miniskirt route. I've settled at a professional knee length, and I get my long skirt fix through sweeping dresses. I adore the long, clean look a well-fitted maxi dress gives me.

I'll keep an eye out for a long one as I thrift, though! Fall is a good time to bring in this look...

I actually really dislike long skirts on me. I may even go so far as to say I hate them on myself. However, I really enjoy them on others. Most people, at least. You are one of those people that look outSTANDing in long skirts, though. I adore that last one (and the picture ain't bad, either!)!

I'm not a fan of long skirts on myself. I feel that they look better on taller folks (I'm not quite 5'3") but they're not my favorite look. Maybe it's that it's hard to find the balance between hippie and formal, I don't know. Besides, I love, love, love my strong, curvy legs, and long skirts don't show them off.

The first and only time I've worn a maxi skirt was...

2009-10-29T16:06:11.380-05:00

The first and only time I've worn a maxi skirt was in 1999. I got so much crap for it, and haven't worn one since. Not purposefully I think.

...And you look so great in them! Thank you again...

After seeing these on you and Luxirare (have you been to her blog?)- I'm going shopping this weekend for one. I think these can be hard to pull off- but you look awesome in all of them, Sally! I will probably have to hide some major platform/heel goodness under my skirt to look as good as you do in them.

I've always been afraid that long skirts will dwarf me, but you wear yours so well!

2009-10-29T13:51:04.894-05:00

You look gorgeous, Sal! :) I do love a good, long skirt every once in a blue moon myself (says she who wears knee length skirts nearly every day...). I used to have a couple, made from 70s patterns that I dubbed my "hippie" skirts. I think I gave them away though--in one of my "purge the closet" phases. Gah! I still have a lovely antique petticoat (albeit somewhat worn--I call it "character") that is floor length and I wear as a skirt--when the spirit moves me! ;) I always feel so elegant and artsy when I do wear a super long skirt...

Really not a fan of long skirts on me. On others, I think they can look really great. I feel that my legs are one of my best assets so I prefer to keep my skirts short.

2009-10-29T11:50:43.439-05:00

I have chunky legs and think a long skirt is better, but I'm also very short. I struggle with finding a good length for me. I love the look of a long skirt on a taller woman. Your outfits are fabulous.
