It doesn't really have a waist band, the pattern uses twill tape to help it stay up which I have not used before but it has been fine today. It sits under the waist anyway so doesn't really need to be tight.

Finally and picture of me wearing it, though it is not very good as I had to use the self timer as the boyfriend was not obliging. (Some sort of racing was more important haha!)
I hemmed it a little shorted than the original picture as skirts longer then knee length don't look right on me. I wore a simple cardi and top with it but think it will work with quite a lot of outfits, I have a mustard coloured top that I think will look particularly nice.
