The linen-cotton mix is pretty wrinkle resistant and the skirt maintains its shape well. This skirt is unlined which makes the inside somewhat rough against the skin. But I’m sure an 8 would work and that’s one size down from my usual 10. When I found this skirt very few sizes were left so I ended up trying a 6, which is clearly too tight on me. I hate the horizontal stripes of the pockets. I hate how it meets imperfectly at the sides. I love how the chevron meets perfectly in the middle of the front and back. The pocket placement is questionable - it’s like a chorus that sings hiiiiippppppssssss but since the skirt runs large it’s less of an issue than it could be.

A fantastic chevron print plus an a-line shape is an easy hit. The Endpoint Skirt ($128) is quickly selling out both online and in-store. I probably will wait for sale on this one. However that was accomplished I’m very thankful! What really makes this skirt a winner is the bold scarlet color. One really nice touch is that this skirt does not slide up when you sit.
I’d probably wear a longer top with this a la the model shot (Anthro paired it with the Take Flight Tank which I reviewed here). It’s certainly hugging my hips and bottom like a pencil skirt but the straight fall below helps to even everything out. I stuck with my usual size 10 and found it comfortable. This won’t be an issue for everyone but is it weirder to have a fleshy lining that’s very different from your skintone? Your call. It’s so close to my usual red-based skintone that I felt sort of naked. This skirt is lined - thank god - but the color is somewhat off-putting to me. A scalloped hem adds an extra feminine touch and up top the “waistband” has similar finial adornments. Cut straight with a side zip, a damask-style pattern curves and winds around the skirt like a wayward tattoo. The beautiful Sunblaze Lace Skirt ($148) is a bright red confection of lace and mesh. I haven’t purchased this yet but it’s on my wishlist! This skirt is a beautiful print that will work well in spring, summer and fall.

The skirt isn’t lined and at full price that’d be a deal-breaker. If you want to wear the skirt at your waist I’d suggest two sizes below your normal take (aka a 6 for me). You see a size 8 on me above, which I liked the most because I could wear it lower below my waist.
I have a waist that’s much smaller than my hips so the skirt hung loosely off my waist no matter which size I tried while my hips played the main role in deciding the fit. It runs large so be prepared to size down either way. Your sizing in this skirt will depend on where you want it to hit. The skirt has a very gentle a-line cut, the perfect cut for curvy me! It hits across the lowest part of my knees which I also consider a great spot. The idea of a palm tree on my hip (and my tush) left me initially unsettled but I do love the colors of this photographic piece. In real life however the skirt is sturdy structured cotton and I have no idea how they got it to ripple like that! Really gusty wind I guess. In the model shot at the top of this post the Digital Sunset Skirt (now $30) looks like a free-flowing feather of a thing.
