For some of us it lasts longer than others, but whether it's a trip to the beach, a picnic, shopping with the girls or a day sailing, you'll still need to look cute and summery. The design for this skirt was copied from a Ready To Wear skirt I already owned and loved. I think it has the perfect ratio of gathers to length and with the elastic waist, is comfy and casual. I think you'll love it too and it will become your go-to skirt for summer.
