Alexa Heart Gingham Swing Skirt From  £21.96

I fell in love first time I saw it. The picture gives the impression, that it's soft and stretchy, but that was not my experience. I think it's sturdy, a bit rigid (meaning you might want to iron it once in a while), and far from stretchy. That changed nothing for me though. It was tight around my waist, but I like that (size 8), and it was a bit longer on me than anticipated (but I'm only around 161 cm so it's fine). The pattern was beautiful, and I can style it with any black or white shirt or sweater of mine- even tees when it gets warmer. And I got so many compliments the first day I wore it. I've only worn it once so far, but it will become a wardrobe stable in the colder seasons as well as the warm ones. Except when it gets too hot, of course.
