 Skant - pant/skirt combo
Always keep my eye out for interesting, real-size, good value fashion shopping (don't we all?) and recently discovered Warwick Jones There I was introduced to the concept of a "skant" - combination pant/skirt. Described as THE look for the modern woman. A bit hard to see the possibilities of this in the picture (would be better to see it on a model). Looks kind of bizarre. Would be ok with the right top and boots I think. What do you reckon? is the skant THE look

I don't think I'll be in a hurry to wear it!

 Re: Skant - pant/skirt combo
its like the fashion that was around in the late 90's but that was pants and a almost mini skirt over top i didnt understad THAT fashion
this doesnt look TOO bad
My Mum has a skirt that has shorts underneath but you cant see the shorts so it actually does look like a skirt i prefer that - i like wearing skirts but hot days my legs chaffe(sp?) so having shorts underneath is a bonus...
at least with this design the pants are only just below the skirt so could be ok would you get the same effect wearing leggins under any old skirt??

 Re: Skant - pant/skirt combo
I'd rather just wear a skirt and tights, I think

 Re: Skant - pant/skirt combo
A few ladies around Horsham wear these. It took me a while to get used to them, but they do look dressier than pants, and they're great for people like me who live in pants at work!

 Re: Skant - pant/skirt combo
There is one lady that I know that wears one, I always notice when she does wear it. Not sure it would be something that I would wear.

 Re: Skant - pant/skirt combo
I'm not sure about them. It looks a bit strange. I'd probably wear a skirt and leggings.

 Re: Skant - pant/skirt combo
Not my cup of tea, and I remember the ones from the 90's with the mini... I passed on them also.
