I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the skirt since I hadn't paid a lot for it. I was also surprised at how well it fit in the waist since in my previous experiences with JL that waists of the skirts and pants were always a bit too tight.
The skirt was wonderful to wear without tights on a a recent warm day. I wore it with a button up shirt and sneakers to do errands with my small children. They didn't ride up, twist around, or slip in anyway. The pockets were useful. I was able to fit my cell phone in my pocket securely. It didn't slip out at all even though I was walking a lot and going up and down subway steps while carrying a stroller.
I had been searching for months for a simple all-purpose A-line denim skirt that was neither too wide or too tight, and without silly embellishments. Hey, I am going to be 37 this year, I don't want a bedazzled butt.
I can see myself wearing this skirt year around with sandals, sneakers, and boots with tights. Also looks incredible for a business casual look with a polo and a cardigan.
My caveats are that the skirt hits me a bit below the knees (I'm 5'4") and that there are no belt loops. It fits fine now, but if I were to lose a few pounds I'd be stuck with a too big skirt.
