This Key Summer Buy Will Give You So Much Outfit Mileage

Floral prints always reemerge in the warmer months, but with endless blue skies and hot days in the forecast, we have more of an urge to wear them right now than ever. And we already know precisely how we want to channel them.

After taking somewhat of a back seat to dresses over the past few seasons, skirts are very much back on the style agenda. We’ve already whittled down the need-to-know skirt trends of 2021, providing you with the chicest alternatives to wear instead of your jeans, but if there’s one skirt style that has proven itself to be a perennial summer style staple, it’s the floral midi skirt.

With everything from high-waist circle cuts to sleek and silky slips, floral midi skirts are dominating new-in sections as well the outfits of our favourite Instagrammers, and we can absolutely see their appeal. Whether you have plans to attend a weekend barbecue, a wedding (remember those?), or a reunion with friends, a floral midi skirt is all you need to look the polished part. Pair it with everything from linen shirting, crop tops, oversized sweatshirts, vest tops and camisoles, and it shouldn’t take you long to realise that a floral midi skirt is one of the most versatile items you can own. To help you on your merry way, we’ve rounded up the best floral-print midi skirts of the season—scroll below to see them.
