Top Pick: Mother The Straight A Skirt

The midi-length skirt has become newly popular, and ladylike styles in this just-prim-enough length are easy to find. But, a midi-length denim skirt that doesn't look like it belongs at a conservative Bible camp is much harder to track down. This new arrival from denim line Mother combines the sought-after midi length with a color and shape that is more punky than conservative.

The Mother The Straight A Skirt is crafted from a generous cotton/ tencel/ elastane blend that creates some nice movement and stretch (there's a video of the skirt in action if you click through). It has a super dark wash with classic 5-pockt styling and fraying at the hem. This skirt is available in sizes 24 to 32.

Wear this skirt with your favorite sweaters for fall. I've also really liked dark skirts styled with chambray button shirts for a more polished look. A tee and cardigan will create a more laid-back look for weekends.
