Trend Report: The Skort

Since it hit stores, the skort has ignited mixed emotions among you ladies. It’s a marmite type situation, you either like them or hate them. We are big fans at The Style Fairy HQ.
A skort is basically shorts and a skirt combined. They look like shorts from the back usually and have a skirt effect to the front.

Love them or loathe them, it seems the skort isn’t going anywhere for Spring Summer 2014.

3) This jacquard skort from River Island is just perfect for this time of year as it is a heavier fabric. This is a really classic, elegant looking skort. Pair it with some black tights, black ankle boots and a chunky knit on top for a really smart, stylish winter look.

5) This colour may not be suitable until this weather starts to brighten up. But this printed skort from Boohoo.com definitely deserves a mention. The pattern is just fab on this and is the perfect summer or holiday skort! With a pretty unreal price tag too! Thanks Boohoo!
