Vibrant Skirts/Skorts that Fit All Occasions
You might be wondering how to compromise between comfort, functionality, and femininity during summertime activities and festivities. The answer: the skort. In case you’re an adversary of the half skirt, half short - otherwise known as skort - hear us out. All we’re saying is give skorts a chance.
Whatever skort in your past turned you against the entire clothing type, we’re here to set the facts straight starting with one very important concept--not all skorts are the same. Whatever stereotype of a skort you had in your head, skorts have come a long way from that. Let us show you.
This Dona Jo skort, with its vibrant pink, red, and blue flowers against a crisp white is the perfect addition to your summer wardrobe. The ruffles add a bit of spice to an otherwise very sweet pattern. As beautiful as it looks on the beach, this skort looks just as good on a lake, at a park, or on a court. The happy pattern will definitely add some pep to your step on or off the court! The material of the skort is adaptable to many different settings, but also fast-drying for those hotter months where you’re sweating more than usual.
We bet you couldn’t tell this even was a skort. This is truly a skirt in disguise. It doesn’t look like a skort at all, except when you need it to do its job of concealing. No one should know you are wearing a skort until you need them to know you’re wearing a skort. Once you start wearing them, you may even wonder how you got away with skirts for so long.
