Wednesday’s TPS Report: Emporio Armani Knee Length Skirt
This post may contain affiliate links and Corporette® may earn commissions for purchases made through links in this post. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.
You'll have to forgive us for posting polka dots twice in one week, but we couldn't pass up this skirt. We love the cut of it — particularly the intriguing diamond seaming in the front — as well as the unusual bubble print, which we actually prefer in the green. The fact that it's Armani, on sale, doesn't hurt much. We'd wear it with all gray, as shown, to keep it sedate for the workplace. Was $185, now $109 at Yoox, still available in mid-range sizes (4, 6, 8). EMPORIO ARMANI – Women – SKIRTS – Knee length skirts on YOOX.COM

I actually really like this! I’m not sure my midwestern office is ready for a polka dot skirt, though maybe with all gray as C suggests it would be okay. Gosh, I’m so tempted to try. The cut looks really flattering.
Actually, now that I said that I remember that I have a summer polka dot skirt from j.crew a few years ago. It’s more of a Friday skirt, but I have definitely worn it to work a couple of times.
Love the cut, but probably can’t get away with the print.
Adore it!
I think it’s great! My size is not there, bummer, but it is still super cute. I don’t know if I would rock the gray hose though.
This isn’t doing anything for me, sorry! Not a fan of the dots at all!
Oh NO! Just linked over to the green and just, no! I hadn’t realized how colourful those dots are. My workplace is super casual and I still don’t think I could get away with this. A (rare) miss for this pick, IMO.
Love this cut, and the gray. Gray hose always, but gray or purple top. Could live with the dots. But not the shine, that’s a deal-breaker.
It’s cute, but I would look about 10 years old in it – boo =(
I love the green dotted one, it is oh so elegant! If I could only rationalize spending $100+ shipping on a skirt. One of the new year resolutions- shopping diet. We will see how long that will last!
I love it! This would be perfect for when I do workshops with my clients. I need to look creative yet authoritative at the same time.
Adore the cut, but I can’t get past the shiny dots. I would never wear this.
Great skirt – I would definitely advise a client to purchase this skirt! Perfect for Casual Friday.
thought it was black-on-black at first, now that would be nice, but with the colors, not so much. (for work I mean)
Can’t imagine this working if there was any wind at all, so I’d be spending every second I was outside holding it down.
I haaated the recent polka dot dress but love this and would buy it if it came in my size. I don’t think it would be a problem at my office, which is on the dressy side of business casual.
Slightly off topic maybe, but a request for people to consider the ethics of purchasing fashionclothes. Do try and think about, for example, the materials your clothes are made with, the human rights of the employees where they’re made and the ethics of the clothes retailer. And endeavour to share, instead of discarding. Thanks!!!!
