Plus, I have no homework this weekend. Have you tried any consignment shops? You might want to look in the phone book under "secondhand clothing" or "consignment shops." Or Google "consignment shops" with your city of residence. Or, if you have enough time to wait for shipping, I found some long skirts online.

regina_coeli Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Wow MM-- have you ever considered a career as a personal shopper? Great skirt, great price-- You are amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaudi87 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Thanks guys for all your great suggestions!! At this point I don't want to worry about shipping so I will probably continue to look at these second hand stores. Im also considering asking one of my aunts to see if she can make them since Ive heard its not too difficult to make skirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
