The 13 Best Travel Skirts

This skirt is sure to come in handy on your vacation — it features an adjustable hem so you can choose your preferred length (at its longest, it’ll reach around your knees), and it has built-in shorts and pockets. And not only will the quick-drying nylon and spandex blend move and stretch along with you — great for hikes or long walks — but it’ll resist wrinkles, too.

Rave review: “This skort hits all the marks! Great quality suggests it will last. It can be worn in the water or when hiking or golfing bc of the fast drying material and of course the adjustable length is the selling point! I am definitely getting at least two other colors! Oh yea that’s another great point; it comes in soooo many different colors!”

An Amazon best-seller with over 17,000 ratings to date, this midi skirt features a comfortable, elasticized waist and an easy-breezy silhouette — and it has pockets, so if you don’t feel like carrying a purse, you can still stash your phone and hotel key card. Effortless in more ways than one, the cute ditsy floral print can be dressed up or down, and the polyester construction won’t wrinkle.

Got a long flight coming up? Wear this long travel skirt on the plane — the ankle length will protect your legs from chilly airplane air conditioning, and it’s made from a soft and stretchy jersey that will resist wrinkles and allow for ease of movement, so you can shift in your seat as much as you like. It has an elasticized waistband and a cute little side slit, and it’s easy to dress up, too. Wear it with sneakers and a cozy sweater on the plane, and switch to heels and a crop top for cocktails once you reach your destination.

Rave review: “I love how soft this skirt is! It’s a great basic to add to your wardrobe. You can dress it up or down. I pretty much live in maxi skirts, but don’t have any with a small slit. [...] The waistband is perfect and the length is great on my petite stature. [...] It washes really well and doesn’t shrink! Bonus!”
