But it wasn't until I saw To Brighten My Day's and Petite Hues' white skirts, that I became super inspired to run out and buy a white skirt already!
My first instincts were to check out LOFT (one of the few retailers that I can always trust for quality, affordability, and petite sizing). Just in luck, they were having a 40% sale, and this skirt qualified what I had in mind....
Size 00P (waist measures 12.75" across, total length measures 17.25")
was on sale at $26.70
Also wearing old J.Crew Stretch Perfect Shirt in size regular XXS and Forever 21 studded flats.
Review: This 100% cotton skirt is very light-weight and almost gauzy. I have a feeling it'll probably shrink a whole size in the machine-washer/dryer (thus, I'll be hand-washing and hang-drying mine). It fits comfortable on me (might be loose on tinier petites). It is also lined in a soft cotton material, which helps decrease the sheerness. Overall, I really like the pleated details and A-line shape. The best part for me is that the length still looks good with flats. The lightness of the skirt would definitely keep me cool for hot summer days. It's a keeper, even though I don't know how long the skirt will last....must be careful not to eat any sloppy-joe's or spaghetti with this skirt ;)
How do you keep your white items spotless and clean? Any tips?

Love the green and white together - looks so crisp and fresh! I used to go to LOFT all the time, but now that we've moved, it's too out of the way. A bummer because they always have such great sales!
SPG, who needs LOFT when talented you can hand-make most of the tops and skirts as seen at LOFT ;)
