I absolutely love this complete skirt set. I sent it home to my Mom to fix for me. She took up the sleeves - it had button holes but it was so insanely long that she got rid of the button holes completely and just sewed on the buttons. I know that is a major no no but given the elbow patches, it would be way too difficult to do it any other way. I love the button hole detailing but I'd rather have sleeves that fit. My ideal sleeve length is 20" from the shoulder.  See this blazer on Kelly and Jean.

I also took the skirt up a total of 4". The length is perfect now. As a reference, my ideal skirt length is 18". This skirt fits perfectly in the waist and hips off the rack which is a HUGE plus. I know some may think I am boring for wearing the complete matching suit but if you have been following my blog since the beginning, I am all about complete sets! I think it just looks very classic and well  put together- although some may argue that it's boring...that's okay with me! These two pieces are great as separates too - which makes it all the better!
