On Repeat: Skirts & Skorts

Women’s skirts are the underrated closet staple that everyone needs in their wardrobe. While a skirt has the power to simply elevate any weekday outfit, the versatility of a skirt is unmatched. Sure, you could swap your everyday jeans with a maxi skirt, or your casual shorts with a mini skirt, but we think the real power in women’s skorts and skirts comes from viewing them as their own fashion genre- not just as a replacement piece. Everyone’s loving skirts and women’s skorts in 2026, and we know you will too.

Our Favorite Ways to Wear

Styling an outfit around a skirt can feel daunting, but we promise it isn’t rocket science. Instead of trying to force a skirt to work in an outfit that it doesn't belong in, allow the skirt to lead you, and turn its vibe into a complete look. Think about what the skirt says on its own. Denim skirts remind us of fall, setting the stage for a back to campus outfit that actually makes you want to get out of those sweatpants. Casual skirts are great for everyday, and go a bit more behind the scenes to let the top do the talking. Tennis skorts feel sporty and can be easily paired with a casual tee or tank and sneakers for active days and football watch parties. Low waisted skirts are the ultimate hot and feminine going out piece, effortlessly giving it-girl energy, and best worn with confidence. These are just a few of the ways we’re wearing skirts in 2026, but we want to see how you do it.

The Trends

Like a never ending revolving door, women’s fashion trends prove to be difficult to keep up with at times. Luckily, trendy skorts and skirts are here to stay, so you’re neither too late nor too early to partake in the skirt trends of 2026. Pleated skirts stuck around through the “office siren” and “preppy girl” eras and have become staple skirts of a non-specified genre, though we still love an occasional embrace of those trends. Printed skirts have moved from formal pieces to everyday wearables. They’re often seen with an oversized graphic tee or sweater and boots in the fall and winter months , and crop tops and kitten heels in the spring and summer. Skirts of all lengths, textures, and styles have truly become a year round piece, so stock up on a few to take you through the calendar.
