However, when M&S had their recent free shipping to the US offer, I bought a cream-colored one in every length because they were a LOT cheaper than the ones I found at Filene's!<br /><br />When my grandmother made skirts for me when I was a child she always lined them. They draped so well like that. Somewhere I still have a lined corduroy skirt I made for myself when I was 19 - if I lost 20 or 15 pounds it would fit again! (OK, more like 30 to 35 pounds - aargh - time to stop eating!)Almost Americanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17865905831387595915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2500116571284081467.post-33678891965783451072009-06-04T07:12:18.273-07:002009-06-04T07:12:18.273-07:00Oh this reminds me of Princess Di's faux pas e...Oh this reminds me of Princess Di's faux pas early on in her royal career ..... turned those brits on their ears the sight of bare legs under a skirt backlit by some sunshine.
