I've always wanted a "pink" suit so that's why I ordered this. It's mauve and the color is so subtle. I also ordered the jacket and was pleasantly surprised at how the wrinkles fell out. All I did was take it out of the bag and hang it up for a few days. No ironing or steaming. Fits great too.

Review 2 for High Waist Body Conscious Pencil Skirt
I loved this when I tried it on. I am 5'6" 147lb. and I tried on a size 8, prefect-o! It's flattering, doesn't show imperfections at all. Great skirt for work.

Review 4 for High Waist Body Conscious Pencil Skirt
I agree with bostongirl, I think this skirt compliments the body and it compliments all skin tones. It looks good on the model and it looks the same on me. Since it is a high-waisted skirt, I went up a size from an 8 to a 10. It it lined and the material of the skirt is of good quality. Highly recommend.

Loved it BUT Spanx are def. required
The color is fabulous, cut is nice but the material is unforgiving. Did not buy it because I wanted it for work and did not want to be unconfortable with Spanx on. If it were in a different material it would have been better!

Review 6 for High Waist Body Conscious Pencil Skirt
I think the color is very nice. I ordered it online in my typical 8 size. It fit me but was not as flattering, a little too fitted..I exchanged in the store for a 10 and looks much better. I find the high waisted skirts tend to be tighter and I have to go up a size. i also did not care for the extra line design they have going through the skirt, but overall its a nice skirt. I like the subtle different color in my wardrobe.

Review 7 for High Waist Body Conscious Pencil Skirt
I think this skirt is lovely even if you're fair skinned (I happen to be). The seaming gives this skirt a little extra oomph! I bought my typical Limited pencil skirt size (5'8, 140lbs - size 8). I think the quality is phenomenal. This sits higher on my waist than the regular pencil skirt, and hits just above my knees. I think if this is paired with the pink suit jacket it's a bit much, but with other neutrals, especially browns and tans, this is a gorgeous color!

Review 8 for High Waist Body Conscious Pencil Skirt
This skirt is lovely: the fit, color, style, accents--everything! I always recommend to go a size down in The Limited skirts, but, otherwise, it's perfect. I am very fair-skinned, however, and this color simply does not go well with my skin tone, so I might return it. I'm hoping it will look better if I get a tan, though, so I'm waiting! The way it looks on the model is pretty much the way it looked on me--you can tell her skin looks washed out, and that's how I felt.

Review 9 for High Waist Body Conscious Pencil Skirt
This skirt is true to size and fit like my other limited skirts when worn at my natural waist (as in the picture and description). Yes, it is thin and could be a bit unforgiving so if this is a concern I recommend trying it on first. Also, the color is much more mauve than pink. I considered returning it since mauve was the color of my mom's drapes in the early 90's but the shade works so well with my pale skin tone that I simply must keep it. Its beautiful, just expect it to be thinner and MAUVE. I will be wearing it with whites, cremes, and browns.
The color and seaming on this skirt is amazing. I love all the expensive looking details. I bought this two sizes up from my normal Limited size because I had to do that with the green high-waisted pencil skirt. This skirt was way too big in that size, so I will have to go down a size or two. Other than that, I am really happy with the skirt. The color is such a versatile and sophistocated shade of pink that will look great with any neutral and possibly some soft orange shades. Can't wait to get the correct size, so I can wear it!

Review 11 for High Waist Body Conscious Pencil Skirt
I first saw this jacket and hoped for the matching pieces (still would love a lined pant too) but this will have to do for now.
Although online the jacket states MAUVE and this skirt states PINK- THEY ARE BOTH THE PINK! I was too afraid to buy it online & had to see for sure in the store- so don't fear- they DO match! I would not call it a BABY pink, but a MEDIUM pink. Very flattering and beautiful. Will look fabulous with a great tan!!
The skirt runs a bit tight and small, so I had to go up 1 size, normally a size 4 but got the 6.
Material: It is thin and unforgiving, although lined. It falls just below the knee. Great for petite women. I'll probably still pair it with some opaque tights in creme or very sheer, but with with a sheen, hose. Not usually the case, but with how thin this is- I'll go for that.
I believe it's versatile, as you can wear it with the jacket for a match- but I'll pair it with a grey jacket, (the lace one I picked up too) white, or none!
I also purchased the New COLLINS shirt in the PINK to go with this- wanted the grey but they didn't have it in our store :( I'll order it online (runs VERY large) got the XS!
