Skirts

Mini, almost across the board. A few sit just above the knee but most land mid thigh, and several are cut low on the waist rather than high. That is a deliberate buy rather than an accident. Mini length is what our customers actually reach for, and a low rise skirt sits better with the cropped tops and bodysuits most of them are pairing it with. If you want a midi or a maxi, we carry those in dresses more often than in skirts.

A denim mini is the easiest thing on this page to build around. A fitted tank and sneakers is the version you will wear most. Swap in boots and a cropped knit and it works for a country concert or a night out. A denim skirt also takes a heavier top better than a lighter fabric does, so it carries a sweater in a way a poplin skirt does not. Sequin and satin want the opposite treatment: keep the top plain so the skirt does the talking. For the boots and beach palette version, see coastal cowgirl outfits.

Take the skirt if the day is mostly sitting still. Dinner, a wedding, drinks somewhere with chairs. Take a skort if you will be moving, outdoors, or on anything low. A skort has shorts built in under the front panel, so it looks the same from the front and removes the hemline maintenance. Both are mini. Only one of them lets you sit on a curb without thinking about it. Sizes vary by label, so check the options on each product page.
