Like a few of our favorite summer fashion items (the fanny pack, the Birkenstock), the skort is making a comeback after a few seasons — years, even — of sartorial dormancy. When was the last time you shimmied into the skirt/short hybrid? We’ve spotted them all over, including on the likes of Karolina Kurkova, style bloggers everywhere and cool California girls such as Jessica Alba. And why not? They’re easy to wear, easy to move in and you can be fearless of any stray breezes that might give regular skirts reason to misbehave. We’ve found our favorites in prints, badass faux leather and a ladylike tweed that’ll have your friends giving your skort a second glance.
