Purchased this Friday night and wore it to work today. Super cute with a black tank top, and little black sweater paired with nude pumps. The material is super comfortable as well!
When I look at the material it makes me think fun skirt, when I put it on it looked like a loose too long work skirt. Had I been more interested I would have tried the smaller size. It can be an interesting work piece but not to be worn out for fun. It's much too long for weekend wear especially if your young in age or young in heart. That being said its comfortable, on par with this season's fashion, and would probably travel very well.
This skirt is very cute, sporty, and versatile. I wore it to defend my final presentation in graduate school and dressed it up with a limited top and blazer, so it looked very professional and crisp. I also have plans of wearing it on the weekend and making it the staple funky piece. Runs a size larger than what you'd normally wear and it stretches, but its a great skirt and you need it too!
I bought this skirt without reading the reviews and wish I had sized down, my normal size 6 is just a touch too big-but it doesn't look bad, so it's fine. I wear this skirt with the Outback red blazer, perfect combination as both are soft and stretchy. I don't usually wear skirts but I know that the horizontal stripes are big this year so I decided to get this. Glad I did, great investment and got lots of compliments.
This skirt is a great fit for a casual day. I did order the next size down as the other reviews had suggested and loved the way it fit. The stripes give this pencil skirt an edgy feel and made me feel fantastic. The length is right above the knee which is perfect for my taste. My only regret was that it was not lined - with the ivory stripes and the thickness of the material I felt I needed a slip. Way to go Limited!

Cute skirt!
This skirt is really cute! I ordered, or at least thought I ordered my normal size 2 but when I received it, it was a 0- good thing because it fits fine. I would definitley recommend ordering down 1 size. I haven't worn it yet because I am still trying to decide if it is appropriate for work. it is really form fitting and pretty thin too. Works for a night out for sure though!

LOVE THIS SKIRT!!!
Ok sooo I love the fit, color, and style of the skirt. BUT because the material stretches easily, I had to go down to a size 6 and I am usually an 8 and I have hips/thighs!!!! Overall love the skirt!!!
I ordered this skirt online and followed reviews by purchasing a size smaller than I normally would wear. (I went with a size 4 and I normally wear a size 6 in Drew Fit Pants). I actually quite liked the way the skirt fit a size down and it was still very comfortable. Alot of reviews mention how the fabric seems low quality. However, I actually don't mind the fabric as it is very lightweight and I picture wearing it on a really a hot day.

Cute
I'm normally a size 2 in pants and skirts from Limited but I agree with the other reviewers who said this skirts runs a bit big; I think a size 0 would have worked better but I still got away with the bigger size. I wore it to work on a Friday with a red top and received a ton of compliments. Overall, cute skirt but try it on before buying.
I love the concept of this skirt and its beautiful and coordinates with so much. The quality however isn't the norm for the limited it appears to be very cheaply made. A plus it came in a size 14 to accomodate my hips.

Item runs too big and material is not what I am used to purchasing from The Limited. Skirt is cheaply made, will have to return it.

Cute Skirt
Nice fit, could be more fitted. I really like the length and I was able to dress is up for a night out. Looks great with a red tank and some nice pumps...Very comfy :)
I love this striped skirt, but I did take off for quality. This is an ultra comfortable knit. I had read the reviews, so I grabbed a 6 and an 8, eight being my typical pencil skirt size. The six fit fairly well, but I want to wear this to work, or tuck a shirt into the skirt, so the six was a bit too tight, though it admittedly fit, it was just a bit too tight! My typical size 8 (I'm 5'8, 140lbs) fit perfectly, with room to tuck something in to it or wear it to work on a more casual day. This hit about two inches above the knee. I am probably going to see if someone can sew the waist hem down, I'm not sure why that was left unfinished! It rolls up if you move about, and requires a lot of adjustment. This skirt is a fairly thin knit, but I have worn it in many lights and don't believe it to be see through. Definitely a cute buy, I'd get it on sale rather than full price, but definitely a different pencil skirt! Comfy too!

Comfortable
This is a great skirt for travel. You can dress it up with heels or casual with flats.
I really love this skirt, it hugs my curves in all the right places without hugging them 'too much'. I would recommend wearing more boy-short underwear if you are concerned with your hips as it may be noticable with the skirt. Also, the top of the skirt isn't sewn down so it tends to flap over which is kind of annoying. Other than that I really love it :)
This skirt is so much thinner and lightweight than I thought it would be (though it was not see through). I was really happy that it's not tight, but it meant that I had to go a size down to fit well. I could slip my usual size off while it was still zipped up! I love pairing this skirt with the cap sleeve tee, or one of the lace or shirred tees for a little something extra.
Thanks for the reviews I went down a size and its fits. I honestly don't think this skirt is worth the original price so please buy on sale. Thanks to coupons and reward $ I paid $17 and I am very happy with my purchase. It is very comfy, practical but not for work unless you work in retail of casual environment mainly due to the material. It's a must have though...

Love this skirt, its so cute and was comfy when I tried it on. However, I am a 0 usually and in this skirt the 0 was to big, unfortunately there wasn't a smaller size.
As soon as I laid eyes on this piece I knew I had to try it on! This skirt is a lovely, stretchy knit fabric that hugs in all the right places. I felt like it fit a little bit big, but since I wear skirts like this around my hips, not my waist, it worked ok. And I only gave it 4 stars on the quality becuase the waistband of the front pops out a little bit when wearing it, but it's not the end of the world. I'll get a lot of wear out of this piece and would recommend it to everyone!
