a sweater for your legs

There once was a time when I wore sweaters/shirts as skirts. How is that possible? You are envisioning me with sleeves hanging from very awkward places on my body. Solution: simply tuck sleeves inside skirt, creating instant pockets (just don't put anything in them).

Don't worry, I only used this DIY skirt a handful of times. As a jean-hater, I found wearing over-sized sweaters on my legs a more comfortable (and efficient) option.

It was a few weeks ago when I stumbled across the would-be-child of a maxi skirt and cable-knit sweater. See below.
Jacket: F21. Sequined tank: F21, $15. Skirt: Only (second hand), <$1.

A warm/comfy alternative. Maybe ask an older woman in your life if she has one to spare?
The backside slit allows flexibility.Proof that no woman is solely one size.
I hope you have enjoyed the idea of the sweater skirt as much as I have. After all, this is much easier than using an actual sweater.
