This listing is on behalf of Romaine.

The above images are from Totokaelo.com.  I couldn't paste in my own photos, but if you want me to email them to you, please convo me at prtcpugin@gmail.com.

My friend sent me this skirt.  It fits me (my hips are about 35"), but I don't have any heels to wear with it and really don't have a place to wear it to.  Since she was so kind as to let me give it a go, I thought I would try to sell it for her and give her any money it sells for.

It is a size 2 but depending on how you want it to fit, it may fit a 4 since it has stretch and it fit Tina (the model in the photos), who is a size 4.  Purchased from Totokaelo at full price in the late fall of 2010. You can view more photos and her comments of the skirt here, http://totokaelo.com/store/products/united-bamboo/fw10/sailor-skirt/navy.  When she first tried it on, she thought it fit her well, but after wearing it out for 2 occasions, she changed her mind and thought it was actually a bit too small. 

Here is the description from totokaelo.com

  • Color: Navy
  • Product Details: Dry clean. Textured double gauze pencil skirt with four buttoned front panel. Flat brass disc buttons. Concealed double hook and bar closure and two buttons behind panel. Tabs with twill tie at back waist. Two back flap pockets. Back slit.

When I first saw it, I thought it was unworn since it is in absolute perfect condition, but Pam said she did wear it a couple of times.
She paid $324 for it.  Asking $85.00 shipped.
