Would You Wear Skorts?

Skorts are my go-to, almost daily uniform, paired with a comfy Target v-neck tee. I feel a little more dressed than when wearing shorts, and I can bend over to the bottom shelf at the grocery store with confidence.

I’ve owned so many skorts from Athleta over the last 8 or so years, they are my go to summer bottoms. Love the versatility and I think they’re cute!

I have one from Girlfriend Collective and I love it so much! So comfortable and versatile – something I can wear anywhere and everywhere

LOVE skorts. I got one from Outdoor Voices this summer and it’s been a staple in my closet ever since. Looks just like a regular short black skirt but it has shorts attached so no worries about it flying up or anything!

Yes! I wear an athletic style shorts underneath skort all through warm weather season! It’s more flattering on my figure than traditional shorts and it has pockets! I’ve even popped into work wearing it with a tunic and no one knew it wasn’t a regular summer skirt.

I loved my skort in the 90s. My mom brought the skort from a trip to New York back to Hamburg/Germany and I loved wearing them. They were made from a bright colorful silk fabric and the skort-thing confused my class at school. They weren’t a thing back then in Europe… Never mind, I wore them in summer. They were so great to wear, as I was riding the bike the whole summer too.

Umm… I never stopped wearing my skirts!

Love the Mustard skort with the check vans! Whole outfit is so cool and also send updated pics with tights.

Kim! You look so cute and happy! So immediately was on the links wondering if skorts are the key to happiness….

I saw your Harry styles shirt and ordered one too! Girl you saving lives out here!

I am old enough to remember skorts coming in and out of fashion once or twice over the decades, so as soon as I saw the headline I was like, oh hell no. Not again! Then I saw Kim’s outfit and was like OOOOOH, those are cute! So I guess I may be buying my middle-aged self some skorts!

omg these comments! @Lauren — “Like a casual, sporty mini-train, or a vestigial fabric-tail. Tell me more.” !! laughing!!

agree w everyone — Kim you look amazing (also: shall i shave my head? dare i eat a peach?)

i would def wear the skorts! esp w tights in the winter

Can I call a café apron over my favorite denim cutoffs a deconstructed skort? Hear me out, I’m pretty sure it’s the power move here.

First, Kim, you look AMAZING! This post brightened my day. I laughed out loud at the line… “So THIS is what getting old feels like, followed by Holy sh*t! Skorts are back, baby!” As a Millennial born in the mid-80s, I can totally relate. Also, as a mother-of-a-toddler, Millennial born in the mid-80s, I’m ALL about a skorts comeback. Can’t get over how GenZ-ers are adopting my 4th-grade style. Ha!

I had a supercute one in the Aughts which I got rid of like a fool. Still think about it all the time. Another clothing regret.

Well well well, another trend I will reluctantly but inevitably get behind! I appreciate this one is at least practical!! But you’re one of those cool girls who could sell me on pretty much anything. (Still contemplating the shaved head!!!)

All I can say is I love that pair in you so much I followed through the link. It’s a good thing you modeled them because the free people page would have never caught my eye.
TLDR: you are rocking that skort.

I’m not sure about skorts (though they look amazing on you!), but I said that about balloon jeans a year ago and now am 100% riding that train. Next year, I’ll probably be all about skorts and saying “Kim was right!” (Other 90s throwbacks that I am loving right now, though, are hair claws, spaghetti strap tanks, and drapey button downs.)

Skorts are a hard no for me but you look great in yours.

at my middle 50’s I feel like shorts are too short and skirts sometimes Marilyn Monroe on me…. so a Skort is awesome- Athleta has some and I order them in a tall size- they have an older style that I sometimes find on ebay that is a bit more swingy…. buys me a few extra inches of modesty that keep me comfortable and cool…I really like them when traveling ( remember when we did that???) they air dry super quickly when hand washed in a sink in a small hotel room near a beach or hiking trail. I miss sink laundry…..

Yes, Kim! That shade of yellow is gorgeous on you. I’ve worn them all my adult life, as they tend to be easy to source in the kid’s section for my 4’11” frame. I haven’t always felt particularly stylish in them – sometimes the sartorial confines of the underage set have felt constricting – but seeing you looking this cute? Yeah, I’ll be approaching them with more enthusiasm. :D

I am here for the skorts hard core! As a golfer, they never actually went out of style for me, although they’re more skirt with built-in shorts than shorts with a wrap front. There are actually some really cute sporty ones out there! Even dresses! Can we also talk about bottoms with built in underwear? Golf skorts, tennis skorts, running shorts… I now have a HEALTHY collection of no-underwear-required summer bottoms and it is LIFE changing. Those yellow ones look GREAT on you, btw. Super cute outfit all around. :)

I’m not sure if I could pull it off, but Kim, you look totally adorable in your skort!

Lol. I had to Google if skorts were the same as culottes!! Apparently not, but I’d wear both!

I wear the hell out of athletic skorts at my job as a gardener. My legs are free to feel the breeze plus I can squat, stand, stretch, and bend without restriction. For some reason skorts always fit me better than shorts so I’ve converted.
