NOTE: This is a sample sale Item! It's a gorgeous piece, but it just doesn't work for me. The fit is a little odd, I'm not sure if it's supposed to fit at the natural waist or below, but I found when I tried it on, the tie works best if buttoned at the first button and then tired (which was to big for my natural waist), otherwise if you button it on the second or third there's an odd gap. If you are excellent alterations this might be a fun project for you. Or if your measurements are right for the skirt as is, it would be a great staple piece. Thanks for looking!
