I ordered a size 16 and a size 18 as I'm a 16 in most of my clothing but occasionally some things I have to size up in. The 16 came up quite considerably smaller than the 18 so I kept the 18 and sent the 16 back. It's a great skirt. I was looking for something for every day wear that I could pair with a t-shirt or jumper and this skirt is ideal. It's a soft denim which I prefer and it's also quite long so don't order if you're looking for a shorter length skirt. I'm 5'5 and this skirt is to my ankles. It's very comfortable to wear and to be honest I've been wearing it most days since I purchased it. I also think it's value for money too.
