For reasons unknown, my eight-year-old self did not like Kmart. When her mom shopped there, she stayed in the car and listened to Tiffany with her twin sister, who also did not like Kmart. We liked the ICEEs they sold there, the large selection of 99¢ cassingles, that titillating Blue Light Special… But some ambiguous stigma prevented us from realizing that whoever catches you buying questionable pants at Kmart, probably also buys his pants there too.
My eight-year-old self also thought that gluing plastic spiders to white denim cut-offs was fashionable.
I’m never one to turn down a challenge, so when Lucky Magazine offered me a pretty darn cute lookbook and a Kmart gift card, I went. Boom. Before my platforms even crossed the threshold I found this little ditty of a skirt on the sidewalk sale rack for $2.99. Not bad at all!
I’ve gotten myriad compliments on it, even from straight men.

I really like this look. Can’t believe you only paid 2.99 for the skirt! Bargain
With the years, Kmart might have improved and clearly it did in some way because you found this amazing outfit in it. I love the choices you made. And it’s great that it’s so cheap.
