Skirt length: honest opinions, please

Glad you decided to keep it; I have decided recently that my over-the-knee skirts look rather dated and I have been rolling them over at the top. Took me right back to my school days! Your skirt looks great and I might be tempted to get one myself.

It looks fine - but what we really need is the back view. Have you got those nasty spidery veins behind your knees?

Do all your leg veins bulge after prolonged walking/standing in hot weather? Just make sure that you double-check as I've really seen some sights!

Get OH to take close up pictures - as he'll just say anything!

It looks lovely, and, if anything, you could wear one even a bit shorter. You have the legs for it!

Well! Thank you all for your replies. You can't all be wrong. Decision made - I'll keep the skirt!
I'm not usually so indecisive; I think this is just because it's a bit "different" for me. And, anyway, it's high time I got over the notion that the whole world is looking at me!

Perfect enjoy

Go for it - we can't all be wrong

Great pair of pins. I think either longer or shorter .....shorter cord skirt and thick tights. You look fab!

You don’t look ridiculous at all. Keep the skirt. ?

It looks great and your legs look great too! Why on Earth don’t you show them off more often?

It’s quite a casual looking skirt so the shoes look fine if you’re dressing down or being casual - or maybe wear with a pair of Birkenstocks if it’s the summer?

I think it's a perfect length. I'm near your age and that's what I would choose. Longer skirts can look dowdy and unflattering unless you are both young and tall.

I think it looks nice, not short at all.

It looks great - you have good legs so show them off!

I would wear it right now with thick, 60/80 denier tights (in bright red or black, with a coordinating top. Red and green look great together) finished off with knee-length boots, heeled or flat.

In the summer, wear without tights - you certainly can!

Enjoy, it fits you well and don't think it is too 'young'. It isn't.

Really lovely . If I had your legs I would buy it too - just my colour.

Lovely cat.

It looks fine to me, I would tell you if I thought it too short.

Agree, wear it with pride.

I honestly think you look lovely in this skirt, and it's the perfect length for summer or any season. Perhaps you would feel less self-conscious wearing tights or leg make-up - not that you need either!

Very cute

It looks fab. 61 and I would certainly wear it. Great legs. Now go out and buy some more!!

It looks great Scribbles ( love the shoes too!)
You could use Dove Summer Revived on your legs for a bit of colour,
but otherwise wear it and be happy.?

Listen to your other half, he is quite right. There is nothing wrong with your legs, they could belong to woman half your age.

That skirt was a good buy, so wear it. Just remember to keep your knees closed when you sit down.

You won't look like mutton dressed a lamb, so our grandmothers can rest in peace. Mine used the expression too.

Yes, it looks fine to me

I rarely wear skirts and have decided all mine (very ancient ones) are too long now.

Dear God, I thought it was going to be half way up to your bum!

As with everyone else's comments, it looks a perfect length for you

15 years YOUNGER!!!! Type. Grrr

I'm 15 years young, and I agree, I wish I had legs as good as yours!

You need different shoes with it though. A kitten heel would be good, or what would look REALLY good, a low spindle heel.
