Its a MUST
Date:29 March 2010
Lovely skirt, good quality linen and lined in white cotton. The long length comes to my ankles on my 5'5" frame, which is perfect for me. The background colour is not white as described, I would actually call it more an ivory colour. The stripes are in black and grey. This will be a perfect skirt for me to wear to work in the summer. The skirt matches perfectly with the Fairtrade scoop neck t-shirt in silver. Very happy with my purchase and other than the colour description the picture on the website is a very good representation of the actual skirt.

Fab Skirt - Nasty Belt
Date:22 March 2010
This skirt is simply gorgeous. Lovely bright red poppies, printed on a good quality medium weight linen. The skirt is made up of lots of panels and doesnt have too much flair, which gives you a nice slimming shape. On my 5'5" frame the regular length came to my ankles which is perfect, I ususally get a long length, but on reading the previous review I decided to try regular and its perfect. The skirt also fits true to size. I was also impressed that on removing the skirt from the packaging it required very little ironing. A first for a linen skirt. My only grip is the belt - Oh my.....I am never impressed with Per Una belts, but this truly is by far the worst I have seen to date, but dont let that put you off the skirt, its fabulous.

Geat work skirt
Date:22 March 2010
This is a great skirt to see you move from winer into spring. Lovely diagonal lines make this a lovely 'slimming' skirt. The fabric is of a medium weight, and a medium length skims my ankles on my 5'5" frame. All in all great fabric and styling. I am sure this will be a great addition to my wardrobe!

Love the colour
Date:8 March 2010
Lovely blouse, and the colour is gorgeous, a really bright turquioise. The fit is good and true to size. I cant wait to wear this with a pair of white linen trousers. Bring on the sunshine!

Disappointed
Date:8 March 2010
I was really looking forward to this jacket arriving, but I am really disappointed in the quality, colour and fit. The colour is more of a light mustard than the yellow in the picture, and the coloured lining shows through the thin linen which doesn't look very nice. The jacket is also cut on the small size. I have recently purchased the the natural Per Una linen jacket and this jacket fits much better. I'm afraid this one will have to go back to the store I'm afraid.

Pretty Flowers
Date:8 March 2010
Nice linen skirt, with pretty flowers. I you ordered this skirt when it first came on the website a different skirt was dispatched, but I am pleased to say this has been resolved, and if you order again ladies you will get the skirt as in the picture. The skirt is on a lovely vibrant raspberry colur, and the applique flowers make the skirt really different. A pretty skirt for sunny days!

Value for money, but watch the sizing
Date:8 March 2010
I was slighty disappointed with this skirt as it wasnt quite as vibrant as I expected, and was a little on the smaller side than the usual Per Una sizing. Unfortunately I will have to return the skirt. All in all though a good price for a lined linen skirt, just not for me I'm afraid

Good Value for Money
Date:7 March 2010
I bought this skirt because i thought it would be nice for work in the spring/summer. This is not an ankle length skit and I would say the photograph is very representative of how the skirt looks once yu have it on. It is a medium weight fabric, and for the price I personally think its a bargain. No fancy belt with this skirt, which pleased me as I generally dont use them, and think they push up the price of the skirt. A nice, skirt, not my favourite, but I'll definitely be keeping it as I still think I will get lost of wear from it.

Great for Spring
Date:26 February 2010
I love this versitle jacket, it is in a lovely neutral colour, that will go with most colours this Spring. The pleat at the back gives a bit of extra detail, and I personally found the jacket to be a perfect fit. The brooch is also rather nice. Usually I dont use the belts or brooches that come with Per Una items, but in this case I think I'll leave this one in place. All in all a nicely cut jacket, that will be a welcome addition to my wardrobe.

Not like the swatch
Date:16 February 2010
I bought this skirt from my local M&S. It is a lovely heavy weight linen and has lots of flare. It fits true to size and an long length, came about two inches above my ankles on my 5'5 frame. The belt on this skirt isnt too bad either. This is a nice skirt for Spring, and will certanly brighten up my wardrobe. Once thing to watch out for though - the little colour swatch does not match this skirt. This is a swatch from a different skirt, which appears to be no longer available on-line, but the picture of the skirt is a true reflection on the one I bought in store.
