Hi! I got my act together (kind of, barely) and have a quick review post today!

Since my random review of a Quince silk slipdress a months ago, it has been one of the posts that I get the MOST emails about – a lot of you like this dress! And over the last year I’ve tried out a few products – some great, some duds. I would describe their quality as the same as Everlane (which can be quite good), but Everlane tends to have some design tweak that I like better. However I then decided to try this silk slip skirt, and liked it enough that I thought I would post.

It’s a great skirt that can be worn for both formal and casual occasions. First, just a basic outfit – I threw on the skirt with a tank and some low heels.

Next, with a sweatshirt and some clogs. I’m definitely going to wear it like this, this winter! Super comfortable and casual.

And then a summer casual outfit above. I wanted to show that the skirt is quite versatile – I can see it being worn for both formal and less formal occasions. I do think certain colors might read more formal than others – the cream I think is one of the more versatile (with some caveats, below).

Also, everything I’m wearing is older stuff in my closet which I threw on.

Okay so, let’s get to some facts:

Sizing: I bought this skirt in a size small (I bought the dress in a XS). I decided to go one size up because I thought more room in the waist is never a bad idea (I didn’t do so on the dress as I worried about the chest gaping). The skirt just kind of hangs off of me, which is great. I could have definitely done a XS for a slimmer silhouette and I think the waist would have still been comfortable. However, I prefer this fit. I am 5’1 and you can see it is a true midi length on me.

Color: I like this champagne color, I think it’s really lovely and super versatile – it looks good with both cool and warm tones. However! it can be quite sheer and show underwear lines! You have to wear seamless underwear and/or a slip. I don’t mind this, but I can see how it can be annoying. If I were say, going on a trip, I’d probably pack a darker color, like the navy or black. I’m not sure how the gray does.

Quality: I think it’s fine for the price, actually quite good, at $60. I don’t think I’ve seen another silk slip skirt at that price. The silk is definitely thin, but not too thin, but you can negate that with a darker color. And the bias cut is lovely.

Wrinkling: The skirt does wrinkle. The last photo (the one where I’m wearing gold sandals) is how it looked before I passed a steamer over it. Not too bad. I don’t personally mind wrinkles and I don’t see how you can get a silk skirt *without* wrinkles, but just calling this out!

Finally – it’s awesome that it is machine washable.

All in all, I would recommend this skirt – I think it could be a hard worker in the closet! And the price is right, and there are free returns. I’d love to hear your thoughts on it if you have it!
