Wow they are great Ali? Can you still buy these anywhere? I love this kind of skirt, very comfortable to wear, and they look so stylish  |

I was just wondering myself Maybe you can but apparently Liberty don't make them any more
I might do a google and see what I find Jo - will let you know!!! It wouldn't be too difficult I suppose to do your own with an elasticated waist tho. _________________ Ali xxx |
