High Waisted Long Skirt with Pockets

Pockets in a skirt should not still feel like a luxury, and yet here we are. This one has them, and they are the reason it will get worn more than the prettier skirts in your closet. The waist sits high, which does the quiet structural work of defining the narrowest part of you and giving everything you tuck into it a clean place to land.

The fabric is 95% Polyester and 5% Spandex. The small amount of spandex means the waistband gives a little rather than digging in through a long day, while the polyester keeps the skirt falling in a smooth line instead of creasing every time you sit. It is not lined, so it is light to wear and quick to move in. It is a basic style, which here means it will not look dated in two seasons.

The length runs long, past the mid thirties in inches, so it covers the calf and moves as you walk. That length plus the high waist is a genuinely versatile combination. Tuck in a fitted tee and add flat sandals for a summer afternoon. Swap in a knit and boots and the same skirt carries into autumn. A cropped top makes the high waist the focal point. The black is the workhorse that goes anywhere, while the white is the warm weather answer and looks especially good with tan and denim on top. Available in sizes S, L and XL.
