It features a wide supportive waistband and a fuss-free design—no zippers or buttons, just pull on and go. Perfect for busy days or a well-deserved night out, it’s a chic and versatile (it even makes a great swimsuit cover-up option) addition to her wardrobe. We’re going to love throwing this skirt into our carry-on for summer travels. $58.99
