I've been spying on all these asymmetrical skirts y'all ladies have been rockin'.
This skirt has been in my drawer for a while.
One time, I was trying to style it different ways while my roommate just laughed at me and told me to stop. (Mini skirt, tube dress, belted tube dress?!) I love the print, but it can be really ill fitting. Super tight elastic on top, a weird seam about 10 inches after the too tight elastic, flowing down to an awkward length.

The other day while exploring blogs, I forgot who, but I read a post by a girl that "hemmed" a maxi skirt she got from a thrift store with safety pins. "Genius" I thought. Except I'm lacking safety pins. So this fancy asymmetrical hem is held together by... duct tape. I liked how I just taped it 3 places and it flowed down like layers since it is such a full skirt.
