My style has slowly been evolving now as I’ve become a mom. I’ve realized some pieces that I used to rock on the daily no longer work for my new lifestyle. I often have to be carrying an infant, changing her on the fly and generally bending over a whole lot. This means I can’t really afford short skirts or too tight anything. A lot of fandom skirts tend to be of this variety, which is why I jumped at the chance to review the new knee-length style that will be offered in skirts at one of my favorite Etsy shops, UtinniBikini. I spent this entire day running around town with Luna in tow: from brunch to cocktails, and I never once felt uncomfortable in my clothes. This speaks volumes to a new mom whose body is currently in flux. I also love that you will eventually be able to get these skirts in any of her amazing fabrics so the options will be {nearly} limitless. I, of course, had to choose the galaxy AT-AT’s because…well, just look at it. It’s flipping amazing.

If you are interested in being a “guinea pig” for UtinniBikini’s new items as well, hit her up on Etsy. She’s currently looking for ladies to model more of these knee length skirts and crop topped sweaters!

Having a booty and being perilously close to 40 means most skater skirts are just a tige too short for me. That skirt is the perfect length! And obviously, I love the print.

Preach, girl!
Although they are not available on the site yet, definitely check out if she has any more slots for guinea pigs!

Lovely skirt, it’s such a great length! I’ve actually never been too comfortable in shorter skirts even before becoming a mum…I was always afraid of flashing my bum haha! This is the perfect length for me. Love it!

Love this whole outfit – the skirt is awesome the the print is perfection! I definitely cannot do super short anything any more – chasing around a 4-year old just does not allow for it 🙂

Hahah. I always tend to wear all my short skirts and dresses on windy days, so I understand! 😉

The print is just….glorious. & yeah, I think all my “sexier” outfits will be saved for those childless outings lol.

Adorable outfit! I’m not a mom, but I definitely have come to the place where I’m just not comfortable in short skirts anymore (I used to be ALL ABOUT those tiny denim skirts from AE back in the day). Knee-length skirts are my fave, and this one is adorable!

I saw this look on instagram, and I LOVE the skirt. I’m not a mom, but I am tall so I find it hard sometimes finding cute, work-appropriate skirts that hit at the knee. I’ll have to check out UtinniBikini!
