New Arrivals at Shade

Have you seen the new arrivals at Shade?  I love their Straight Skirt:



It's so cute!  I especially adore the pockets.  It reminds me a little of Shade's Double-Pocket Tulip Skirt, which I discovered only after they were sold out in my size.  I was very disappointed that I didn't snag one for myself, and my disappointment has only increased as I've watched Elaine of clothed much look so cute in hers over and over and over.  {sigh}

This skirt is 23 inches long, which is a little short for me, but you can clearly see a nice wide seam allowance at the hem -- just perfect for tailoring.  You can find it online here, or click here to find a location near you.

Shade is very good about having extra seem allowances in their skirts and dresses. They are even a bit short for me sometimes (and I am 5'2") but it's lovely to have the flexibility to change the hem.

I encouraged Elaine to get that tulip skirt after I got one, and it's so fabulous! Last time I was in my local shade they still had a few, but in not in your size.

I was eyeing this skirt too. I like the blue, but I think I would get a crazy ammount of use of that pewter one!
