I have to try them on, because 90% of the ones I try and order online have some funky sizing issue and they end up getting sent back or sitting in the closet wasting space. The few skirts I do have that fit, I want to wear like every single day&#8211;which I obviously can not do. Thankfully there is an easy fix! Dresses (these I have by the boat load) can easily do double-duty as a skirt simply by pairing them with a sweater. The need to buy a skirt in xyz color goes out the window if I already have a dress that can work both ways. This simply and easy outfit hack is a great way to transition your dresses into a daytime setting and still looking relatively casual. PLUS, ditch the sweater and you ready for happy hour.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/IMG_2186.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\"
