[SOLD] Vintage Flowery Short Mini Skirt $7

Got this vibrant, colorful, fun mini at American Rag on La Brea in LA last summer, but I never wore it! Can you believe that?! Flowers and Pears! I absolutely love the colors, and pattern... but it's a bit too small for me. It's a size small. waist measures about 27-28 inches. (and if you like to wear it on your hip, then it's an extra small!) length of skirt is about 14".



short skirts make hot summer days cool!
