Promising review: "I live in the south where it gets uncomfortably hot in the summer, so I wanted a skirt that would look cute, keep me cool, look like something that is casual like shorts, but a tad more comfy.

I got it because my skin is starting to get age spots even with daily sunscreen so I have to cover up." — Saltwater girl
