These button front skirts are everywhere this year (and I mean absolutely everywhere!) Madewell, Banana Republic, ASOS, and J. Crew all have their own versions, but essentially it's the same wool skirt. I've had my J.Crew Ryder skirt folded in a box for a couple years now because it was too big and there was no, no, no way I was ever getting rid of a herringbone wool skirt from J.Crew even if it didn't fit, so the minute I saw the Flair skirt at J.Crew this fall, I knew I could transform my old skirt into something updated and useful The re-haul turned out to be less complicated than I imagined (it took a few hours), which was the icing on the cake. Bring on the tights and cool weather. I'm ready
