I recently purchased my first Midi from ASOS.com (They have petite sizes) I am very pleased with the skirt and like you I paired it with a black turtleneck. Feedback I received was perhaps a light colored button up blouse or a thin knit crew neck would be a better choice with the Midi.

Perhaps this skirt could have the illusion of looking less overwhelming paired with a belt in a dark colour; thereby maximizing your torso length.ClassyNikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17319812298180782041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6808329342973883194.post-66890502791975878232013-10-21T07:53:02.115-04:002013-10-21T07:53:02.115-04:00I think the length looks perfect on you, but I wou...I think the length looks perfect on you, but I would try it with something other than a turtleneck -- I think you and I are built quite similarly, and I often find that a turtleneck with a high-waisted but longer skirt makes the torso look blockier than it actually is (or I may just be blocky!). I would probably either wear this (at the current length) with a whtie collared shirt open at the neck and rolled at the sleeves or a tank with a v-neck or scoop-neck with a cropped cardigan.

I am of the LDS faith and I mostly wear fitted (but not skin tight) pencil skirts with Jackie cardies and sky high heels!! And most Mormons don't wear flats with skirts/dresses, unless they are missionaries who do tons of walking.<br />Regardless, the skirt looks great on you.

Something about the shoes bring the length in a little bit. I guess because the nude toe, your feet don't look long and, therefore, don't elongate the skirt. I think I'd add a belt to break up the skirt right at the waist and good to go.

However, if it means you will wear it more if it is shorter, then by all means shorten it. <br /><br />Personally I think the way you have styled this is gorgeous and looks great on you. I wouldn't wear it with flats though. <br /><br />bisous<br />SuzanneSuzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03891315017218863243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6808329342973883194.post-32286128260190934042013-10-15T14:44:39.876-04:002013-10-15T14:44:39.876-04:00I love this!
