Lust or Must? The "Mullet" Skirt

Teal "Mullet" skirt $19.80 from Forever 21

It's hard to know just where to begin with this one... I can't say I was surprised to see it walking down the street after having seen it walk down the spring/summer runways early last fall, and I must admit every time one walks by, I turn my head. Not necessarily in a "Wow, what is she wearing?" kind of way. It's more quizzical than admiring.

Being a good Canadian girl (and unabashed Toronto Maple Leafs fan), I am no stranger to the famed hockey hairdo that is known far and wide as the Mullet. As far as I'm concerned, this skirt is the fashion version of a Mullet; party up front, business in the back. Am I right?

Now, I can tell you without a doubt that I never met a Mullet I didn't hate (except for maybe on Johnny Depp) which makes the Mullet skirt that much more perplexing to me... I feel that by all accounts I should hate it. And yet, I don't. But, I'm not filling my closet with one in each color either. That said, I'm squarely on the fashion fence when it comes to this latest trend.

What do you think? To Mullet Skirt or not to Mullet Skirt? That is the couture question...
