Description
I was on the lookout for a versatile and comfortable summer skirt, and this one caught my eye. The material, a blend of 70% viscose and 30% linen, is perfect for hot weather—it’s thin, cool, and feels quite soft. I appreciate the elastic closure which makes it easy to wear and adjust.
For reference, I usually wear a size medium or 8/10, but based on reviews, I decided to size up to a large. It was a bit loose, so I think sticking to my usual size would have been fine. The A-line silhouette is very flattering, and the flowy design adds a touch of elegance. I chose the navy color, and it’s a beautiful, solid shade that pairs well with many of my summer tops.
One of the highlights for me is the button detail on the front flap. It’s purely decorative, so there’s no risk of it opening up in the wind, which is a thoughtful design feature. The pockets are another big plus, adding both functionality and style.
There are a couple of minor drawbacks worth mentioning. The fabric tends to wrinkle easily, but a quick spray of wrinkle release usually does the trick. Additionally, the inner lining is a bit of a mixed bag. It’s quite short and doesn’t cover much, but it hasn’t been a major issue for me since the outer fabric isn’t very sheer.
Overall, I find this skirt to be a great addition to my summer wardrobe. It’s stylish, comfortable, and versatile enough to wear for various occasions, from casual outings to evening events. I’m even considering getting it in another color!

The sizing runs slightly small, but it’s not a major issue. I love the color and design. The elastic back waistband is a great feature.

I ordered this skirt based on the size recommendation in the description. When it arrived a few days after the rest of my order, it was too tight. I liked the style, color, and quality, but it just wasn’t right for me. I had to return it.

I first ordered this skirt in black and loved it so much that I got another one in green. The fabric is excellent quality and completely opaque. The buttons add a charming detail. I appreciate having pockets, and this skirt includes them. I wear a size 12 and both skirts fit perfectly, true to size. I’m extremely satisfied with both of my skirts!

The fit was perfect, very flattering and flowy. However, the fabric was extremely scratchy, resembling coarse wool. It was too uncomfortable to wear without leggings under the skirt.

Lovely and adorable! I’m particularly fond of the buttons. This item offers excellent value for the price. I typically wear sizes 8/10 or medium, but I opted for a large this time. It’s a bit roomy, but still comfortable. If I choose to buy another color, I’ll definitely go a size down.
Some reviewers mentioned issues with the inner lining, but I didn’t find it bothersome at all. I’ve included a picture with this review to show it. The front flap with the buttons is purely decorative, so even if the wind blows, it won’t expose your legs.
The fabric is slightly see-through, as shown in the picture with the arrow, but not enough to be concerned about. It does wrinkle easily, but a quick spray of wrinkle release solves that problem and keeps it looking great. The material feels like soft linen.

The skirt doesn’t match the picture at all. The quality is poor. Not worth buying.

I absolutely love these linen skirts, which I believe are a cotton-linen blend. They are incredibly cute, and I own them in green, navy, and brown/tan. The fit is super flattering, offering a versatile look that can be styled to appear either vintage or modern. They wash well, and I hang them to dry. There is a lining that extends to the length of shorts, which seems unnecessary since the fabric isn’t sheer. However, the lining hasn’t caused any issues, except that it wrinkles more than the skirt fabric. The skirt material is cool and comfortable, perfect for hot weather. I receive a lot of compliments on the grass green skirt, as it’s a beautiful color that pairs well with all my summer tops. These skirts have become my go-to for summer, with the tan and navy ones matching just about everything.

I adore this skirt, but it required a few modifications. The lining is extremely short and didn’t cover properly, so I removed it from both skirts I bought (green and brown). Additionally, it runs very large with an overly stretchy waistband that kept sliding down. I should have ordered a small instead of my usual medium/large. It does shrink a bit in the wash, which helps.
Despite these issues, the skirt is stunning. It becomes softer with each wash (thanks to the linen material), and the pockets are a great feature. The design is very pretty and feminine, and it’s a true midi length, falling past the knees.

I noticed mixed reviews about the sizing of this skirt. Amazon recommended an XL for me, but I ordered an L. It arrived wrinkled, and initially, the L felt too snug. However, after pressing it, it fit perfectly. For reference, I’m 5’5″ and 170 pounds, and the L was a better fit. I have a high waist, and the length hits mid-calf, which is perfect. My skirt didn’t have the odd sewn-in slip that some mentioned, possibly because I have a later model. The khaki color doesn’t show through. I’m looking for a simple A-line, mid-calf skirt with a zipper for summer, but this one is a semi-wrap style. I might buy another color. Tip for fellow reviewers: including your height and weight is really helpful.
