The Kate Midington Skirt

Have you ever found an item of clothing that you love to wear so much that you wish you could have it in every colour? That’s how I feel about the Kate Midington skirt from Society+. I got to wear it for an upcoming project that I’m part of (more details about that to come next week) and now I am obsessed!

It all started when I saw it on Corissa from Fat Girl Flow in her Society+ Lookbook a few months ago (she wore the red version and the white with black grid pattern), and then when I had the chance to wear the black version with the white grid pattern, I jumped at it.

The Kate Midington skirt was designed by Society+ Co-Founder and fellow plus size babe Jessica Kane, and you can tell that she’s really thought about the design – my favourite feature is definitely the fact that it has pockets! Not enough skirts and dresses have pockets for my liking. The fabric is a medium weight so I can wear it all year round, with or without tights (and you better believe I am going to!). I love the colour and pattern on this one and I’m also eyeing up the new polka dot ones in black, navy and maybe even white. I think next time I’d get a different size though, because I find that the waistband of this one is a little big on me and I think the 22/24 would be a better fit. I considered exchanging it, but the size I need is sold out so I’m just going to make it work – no way am I giving up my chance to wear this beauty!

I feel great when I’m wearing it – it’s a fun skirt that I think really suits me, I love the shape and the neutral colours are really easy to pair with any coloured top. I get a lot of compliments when I’m wearing it too – I wore it out earlier this week and had four people come up to tell me how much they liked it (not to mention all the love you guys have been giving it on Instagram!).

What style of skirt do you prefer?
