Fashionistas love high street linen skirt that’s ‘perfect for warm weather’
IF the hot summer weather is getting to be too much for you, it might be time for a little wardrobe update.
This bargain hunter from Uniqlo is perfect for summer and will keep you cool all day long. What’s not to like?
Shoppers love the Linen Blend Skort, which comes in four different colours for the attractive price of £24.90.
Ideal if you want the best of both worlds: the design has built-in shorts, but looks like a skirt.
You can buy it in store or online and sizes range from XXS to XXL.
Although the skort is great for active occasions, it is also perfect for a casual or formal day.
And thanks to the elastic waistband at the back, you’ll be comfortable all day long, which is always a big plus.
Fashion lovers online are raving about the quality of the item, with many even giving it a perfect five-star rating.
One said: “I absolutely love it! I bought the black one and now I have to buy the olive one because it’s too good to pass up.”
And they weren’t the only ones who liked the simple design, another wrote: “I bought this item a day ago and it’s perfect!
“Fits perfectly, not too tight. I like it very much because it looks like a skirt, but in reality it is a perfect short for the warm weather.
“I paired it with a white v-neck t-shirt, also from Uniqlo, and voilà, flat black sandals and I was off. Perfect for both day and night. A must have!”
“I bought it a month ago and I love it,” said a third. “This skort has everything. High waist, with pockets, a pant that is not too short and not too tight.
Meanwhile, someone else wrote: “When I ordered it, I didn’t expect it to be this good.
“Perfect for spring/summer looks for work, going out and just about anywhere. Very comfortable feet and material.”
The skort isn’t the only summer must-have, though. Fashionistas are also flocking to Marks and Spencer to score the new Pure Cotton Mini Smock Dress.
This beautiful dress is a lightweight and breathable option for summer days.
It has a regular fit, a smooth smock shape and a short hem.
The sleeveless model has a neat round neckline, making this fashion item an easy-to-wear garment that combines classic and modern styles.
The dress is available in two different lengths: normal and long.
Sizes range from size 6 to size 24, making this dress perfect for a variety of body shapes.
However, sizes are selling out quickly, so if you want to get your hands on one, you’ll need to act fast.
The dress is available in three different colours: black, sunny yellow and medium pink.
You’ll be pleased to hear that it’s incredibly affordable, coming in at just £19.50.
How to Look Chic on a Budget
Fashion stylist Gemma Rose Breger and beauty journalist Samantha Silver showed how to make your outfits more stylish without spending hundreds of euros.
- Never spend money on designer denim: River Island ”always has such a great selection of fashionable jeans that follow the current trends”. The retailer offers a wide range of sizes from UK 6 – UK 18 and three leg lengths – with prices starting at an affordable £25.
- There are no rules for jewelry: ”Get something at a flea market or thrift store, score on Vinted and eBay, buy something from the clothing section of your local supermarket when you go shopping or have a look in clothing stores on the high street.”
- Don’t forget the second-hand sites: With the rise of second-hand sites like Vinted and Depop, there’s no excuse not to buy – or sell – second-hand clothes. Gemma, for example, managed to get her hands on a pair of chic Chanel sunglasses for just £17.
