4 Ways to Style

A SKORT

Let’s hear it for the skort… aka the MVP of warm-weather dressing. If you’ve ever wished your skirt had the practicality of shorts underneath, this trend (slash throwback) is for you. I’ve been wearing this particular skort on repeat because it’s comfortable, flattering, and surprisingly versatile.

In this post, I’m breaking down four easy outfit ideas featuring the same skort styled totally differently. From sporty and casual to polished and put-together, there’s a look here for every vibe, and every calendar invite. Plus, don’t forget to use CARALYN15 for 15% off your first order and free shipping!

 

Sporty & Functional

This one’s made for movement! Whether you’re chasing a toddler, hitting the court for some casual tennis, or just running errands in style. Pair your skort with a breathable tank, supportive sneakers, and a baseball cap or belt bag to keep it all hands-free and low maintenance. It’s a go-to combo that checks both the cute and practical boxes.

Casual Cool

You can never go wrong with the classics… a crisp poplin button-up and a baseball cap always deliver. I layered a white shirt over the skort, added sneakers and a denim cap, and topped it off with a belt bag to keep things easy and hands-free. It’s the kind of outfit that feels effortlessly cool but still put-together, perfect for a casual coffee run or a weekend stroll.

Graphic Tee & Denim Jacket Vibes

Nothing says laid-back cool like a vintage-inspired graphic tee and an oversized denim jacket. Tossed over the skort, this combo makes for an easy everyday outfit that still feels intentional. It’s ideal for transitional weather or when you want a bit more coverage without sacrificing comfort. Add a pair of sandals or sneakers and you’re good to go! Whether it’s a coffee run, errands, or a casual lunch date.

Elevated Everyday

Who says skorts can’t be chic? I dressed it up with a fitted ribbed tank, gold hoops, and a sweater casually tied over the shoulders for that effortless, country club feel. Swapping sneakers for sandals instantly makes the whole look brunch-ready, or even date-night approved. It’s equal parts comfy and polished, and proof that a skort can absolutely do it all.
