Everyone is wearing skirts. Do you want to join the club?
A great summer uniform that works from the office to the bar and beyond. Read more on Substack; it might not fit in this email.
Where are we at? Almost summer, but not quite. How are you? Did you try out some of the suggestions from the spring lookbook newsletter? I’m back from holiday, and my body directly catapulted me into sick mode, so I haven't tried out much of anything. As I lounge in my loungewear, naturally, it seems that everyone is into skirts now (not forgetting the bermudas and capris), and I can see why. Cool styling is essential, and it would feel especially fresh and new if you’re primarily a pants girl.
Where to start and what to get?
Where to start? As always in your closet. Is it any skirt that you like or would like to wear? Don’t write your stuff off immediately. Scroll below to see many styling options.

Trendy
This Miu Miu suede skirt with very cool styling. You can wear it without the swim shorts and without any underwear peeking, and it would still work. For this style, you can look for vintage options or try this piece from Arket. Buy a size bigger so you can pull it down, and you might not need tailoring. Arket 189€.
Another one from the same brand
It is cute. Take some styling inspiration or hurt your account here, Miu Miu, 1.300€.
Subs
Me wearing a vintage Burberry skirt I got over a decade ago. I’ll restyle it this season as soon as I’m back into the world again. Since the market haven’t sort of picked up on this particular length yet, I would search for a vintage options. You could order midi and cut it, or a mini skirt but get a size bigger. I wouldn’t miss this one on sale, Arket, 55€. Have a look at this one too. Very nice and made of leather, Saks Potts, 809€.
