    Love it! Perfect play skirt. It hangs well after a rub with a fabric softener sheet (get rid of static). It runs big--about 3/4 a size too big. (I had ordered a size smaller because I\'m loosing weight, but it fits perfectly now and I can\'t resist wearing all the time). The fabric is a little more "gear"ish than I was hoping...it sounds scratchy, but it feels comfortable. It will be very durable and not wear or fade. Perfect for summer.

    Great fit, nice pockets - This skirt has three pockets but manages to not look too cargo like, hangs like a dream, and doesn't show anything when I squat to pick up my daughter. I love it! It is a bit static clingy, but that can be dealt with.

    Really cute skirt. I’m looking forward to wearing this on my upcoming trip to Costa Rica. It looks great with all different colors of tops, and cute with my keens and flip flops. I would say it runs a little large... especially in the waist.

    This is my favorite skirt by far. It is an excellent pick for a curvy frame. It is stretchy and the flip at the bottom is so flattering. I wear it in place of jeans or shorts. It's my first choice when my laundry is clean. I wear this skirt a minimum of once a week, I've had it for a year and it still looks new. I love it. It looks great with pretty much any color. FYI It's a soft gray and not a black.

    What a cute skirt!!! I was a bit apprehensive about buying this online (I'm little on top..."gihugic" on the bottom...clothes can be tricky). This was such a pleasant surprise! It does run big...I wear a 10, bought an 8, and the waist is still too big...so take that into account. But nothing a few tucks can't fix. I'm losing weight so that will be necessary later. This is too cute of a skirt to let it stay in the closet! I can see this becoming my "go-to" skirt this spring and summer. I'm 5'8" and it hits me perfectly at the knees. Like the other reviewer said, the material is "loud" but it's not bad and the pockets aren't floppy like some cargos are. Nicely streamlined and VERY flattering! Even on pears like me! THANK YOU ZAPPOS!

    This is a great skirt for summers anywhere. I plan to use it when I travel in Europe as well as when I'm hanging around in Florida. It works great over a bathing suit or as a go-anywhere skirt. The fabric is comfortable and the pockets are so handy when you don't want to carry a purse! The material is quick dry which makes this a natural for travel of all kinds. My only downside is that I ordered a size based on the measurements given and found that the skirt was too big. Also, I ordered one in desert and one in black and the desert skirt was a good 1/2-3/4 inches larger all around even though they were labeled the same size. I returned the original size and got the smaller size and that fits great.

    I am crazy about this skirt. It's light and sits perfectly. Occasionally I do have static-cling problems, but a dryer sheet does fix it. It runs large, so order a size down. I'm glad I did.

    bought this skirt after reading reviews during my search for the perfect skirt to take to Italy this summer. I was looking for a simple piece that will keep me cool and dry while maintaining some style. Wow! This skirt is incredible. I wore it today to test it out and it was incredible. I am 5'4 and 120 lbs and this skirt hits at a very flattering spot barely below the knee and sits just below my waist. The level of comfort is unsurpassed. Not one negative. The cherry on top is that I was caught in a downpour at the end of the day that completely soaked my hair, skirt and t-shirt. By the time I made it home 20 minutes later, my hair and t-shirt were still dripping wet, but somehow the skirt was nearly dry. I found my travel skirt!

    Love this skirt. Perfect for travel as it has safe pockets and is totally packable. It's small and doesn't wrinkle. Quick to wash and dry. I didn't think I would like the ruffle as it was pictured, but it doesn't look like a ruffle when you wear it.

    Very comfy. The pockets are very convenient, but if you put bulky things in them they don\'t do any favors for your silhouette.

    Great skirt! This is a truly great skirt! The fabric is easy to care for, no wrinkles, quick dry and comfortable-- what more could you want? On top of it all, it has pockets which means you can travel around without needing a purse or backpack if you're only carrying small items like keys, glasses or ID cards. I got the skirt in my usual size only to find it was a bit large so I exchanged it for a smaller size and hoped it would fit better! It did, so I ordered another in the other color available.I wear it for any casual occasion and plan to bring both on a month-long trip to Europe this summer! If it ever comes out in another color, I'll get that, too!

    I am in my late 50s and I thought this may be too short or too young, but it is neither. It is just a great skirt to bring on a vacation! Takes up very little space and is very light weight yet a substantial look and feel, perfect fit and just to the knee! Simply wash and hang dry, needs no ironing! Love it!

    I'm 55, size 4, and this royal Robbins Discovery Skirt 09 fits perfectly. I wish it came in other colors, or maybe even in multi-colors. As I do most of my shopping online(lotions, hair and skin products, clothes), I've got to mention that Zappos is terrific. The customer service and the quick delivery at no extra charge is superb and makes a busy life so much easier.

    Great skirt. Easy to travel with, wrinkles fall out quickly, and I love the pockets. It\'s a bit loose on me; I usually wear a size 12, got the skirt in a 10, but it seems to stretch a bit, so one star off for comfort because I have to keep adjusting it. I\'ll probably get another one, though, and try it in an 8. I travel a lot and this is perfect for that.

    I wore this skirt in Italy in 95 degree heat and it was wonderful! My money belt was concealed nicely by the wide waistband. The flared skirt is flattering. It repels stains and you can spot clean it easily if need be. Highly recommended as a travel skirt. Sized large - I ordered a 4 instead of regular 6. Kept wrinkle free as well.

    Love this skirt! I'm 5'8" and it hits a bit higher above the knee than I would like for this style, but it is cute and comfortable, great with a t-shirt. Thank you to you wonderful reviewers who said it runs large. I am a true size 8 but 6 fits me perfectly. I've never been a 6 in my life 'til now.
