Cute

9 months ago
Super cute and comfy. I wasn't sure about the size because I feel like it bunches a little land makes it look too tight, but the waistband is loose so going up a size isn't an option or that would stick out.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Cute and comfy skort but hem curls

9 months ago
This skirt is super cute and the shorts underneath are thin and comfy. However, I will be returning it because the hem curls outwards and upwards, which makes it look odd like a Barbie skirt or something. I don't know if it's 'cause I have a voluptuous behind that created that effect or that's just how the skirt is. #AEReviewSweepsEntry

Love this so much, except for the skirt curling up

I really really love this skirt!! Everything about it is awesome, except that the hem on the bottom curls up. I will have to figure out a way around that since I love everything else about it! True to size. I am a size 6 in most brands, but I am sometimes a 4 in AE. My usual size 6 was perdect.

Stretchy!

11 months ago
this skort is actually super cute! im so glad they didnt make it a regular skirt, it doesnt ride up & i dont need to worry about how everything holds. an issue i had was the first one i bought, the zipper broke as soon as i had taken it home (popped straight off while i hadnt even taken the tags off yet) but was able to exchange it. the second issue is that i find if you dont want the shorts to sit like undies, they peek through the small skirt slit. also, size down. reference i am 190lbs, 5’6, usually size 14 in denim but this i got a size 10, and could have managed going to an 8 if i wanted to be snatched.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Buy a long length if you have a booty

a year ago
I’m 5’5, 165 lbs pear shaped and usually a 10R but I purchased a 8R. The reviews are right about sizing down because it’s so stretchy. However… the regular length barely covers my bum. Going to exchange for a 8L once it’s back in stock.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Staple Skirt - Pick the Right Size Though!

a year ago
This skirt is adorable and a staple. It can be dressed up or down and matches with anything. I typically wear a size 6 in denim, (or anywhere from a S-M in most bottoms) but I took everyone’s advice and sized down to a 4 long (I have an athletic, pear shape). It fit perfectly, but it could loosen up throughout the day, and I prefer tighter fits with my skirts. So I could have even sized down again to a 2 long if I wanted to. There is just so much stretch with this piece. By no means is it a bad thing, but it does alter sizing. It’s perfect if you pick the appropriate size for your preference of style and wear. For reference, I’m 5’ 1”, anywhere from 135-140lbs, with a shorter torso, hips/bottom are 42” and waist is 28”. I always do a short in jeans, but do a long for skirts as I hold most of my weight on my bottom half.

Yes, I recommend this product.

If you’re tall get a long size!

10 days ago
I am 5’8” and I ordered an 8 long and thankfully I ordered the long. I know its a mini skort but it’s mini! Also I will say in some places it’s sewn kinda terribly so I am not sure if it’s a piece thats going to last a while. Other than that it is really cute and I am excited to wear it for the summer!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Seam issues

It is a cute skirt and I’d rate higher if the bottom seam would stay down. It doesn’t matter if you iron the skirt, the bottom flips up.

Super stretchy, but not meant for curvy girls

7 months ago
It's really cute and super stretchy. For all the curvy girls out there, this is not it. I had to size down 2 sizes (I am normally a 6 and I got a 2 in this). The waist was just way too big in the size 6 and 4. The waist is still big in the size 2 so I am getting it altered to fit, as the rest of the skirt fits elsewhere.

since its a stretchy material the bottom of the skirt rolls up in the back making it look extra short and just awkward

VERY short

a month ago
This skort is incredibly cute, but quite possibly the shortest thing I’ve ever put on my body. The bottom of the skirt barely covered my full butt, and any movement showed everything. It’s nice that there are shorts underneath, but they might as well be underwear. If you’re okay with it being very short, I recommend sizing down one. I wish it was slightly longer, but unfortunately i had to return. Much too short for this mom of two.

No, I do not recommend this product.

the hem rolls up no matter how much i iron it

After after one wash the hem has rolled up and it looks crazy. i was only able to wear these one time. I’ve tried ironing and pressing the hem, but then after a few minutes of wear the hem rolls up again and looks so cheap. I always have this problem with AE flares too and it ruins the look.

Cute and comfortable - soft, stretchy denim at a nice length. Unfortunately, with first wash, the bottom hem has curled up and even with steaming or ironing it still curls up. Ruins the nice, clean look and I haven’t worn it again.

too big in waist, perfect fit for hips/thighs

7 months ago
if you are literally (i mean LITERALLY) a box then these might fit but otherwise pls size down. im usually an 8-6 and i prob should have ordered a 4 or even a 2 lol. quality is great esp for this price, but the waist is so big i cant wear a top unless its way baggy bc the excess fabric in the waist area bunches up. it judt looks weird on.
