Sometimes in the summer months I prefer wearing a skirt to shorts because skirts are more breathable and lightweight. Torrid has a nice blue and purple paisley tiered skirt that is feminine and summery. The key to finding a great summer skirt is finding one that has a bright pattern, a lightweight material and a flattering length. This skirt meets all of those criteria.

This skirt has a fun, feminine, bright, floral/paisley pattern. The main two colors are a bright blue and lighter purple so they are perfect for summer. It is made from 100% cotton, which makes it ideal for hot summer days. It falls just above the knees, which tends to be a flattering length on most plus sized women. I also like that this skirt has an elastic waistband because it makes the fit more comfortable on any given day.The ruffle on the skirt may put off some people, but the ruffle does not make the skirt appear overly puffy.
