Should've stuck to my usual size

I should have heeded the reviews and gotten a medium (I'm 5' 4", 154 lb, short torso). I thought a large would be more comfy and sit closer to my natural waist, but turned out too loose and still sits above my waist at a weird point. The print is so cute, but the cut just makes me look dumpy and thick. I suspect a medium would work better on me. The top is stretchy, the skirt part is stiff cotton with pockets (pockets!!). I'm returning this large size, thinking about whether to re-order in medium - it's potentially very cute if it fits well but am slightly deterred by the need to iron the skirt portion.
