I Wear This M&S Skirt Nearly Every Day In Summer - And I Just Bought Two More
Few wardrobe staples nail Côte d'Azur style quite like a poplin midi skirt. While nautical stripes and breezy linens have long defined effortless summer style, there's a fresh elegance in swapping them out for a crisp cotton poplin skirt that elevates your look with minimal effort. Enter the Pure Cotton Poplin A-line Skirt from M&S - a breezy, flattering essential that transitions seamlessly from laid-back mornings to stylish afternoons.
Known for its airy and slightly buoyant design, M&S's poplin skirt blends effortless wearability with polished charm. Made entirely from pure cotton, you needn't worry about overheating when this midi is in your rotation, thanks to its cool, breathable fabric. A clever choice, we'd say, especially with stifling tube rides and sun-drenched park picnics on the horizon - just possibly avoid sitting directly on the grass if you're hoping to dodge the dreaded green stains. 1.
M&S, Pure Cotton Poplin A-line Skirt
Of course, it's no surprise that this skirt style is trending - especially with its recent runway endorsement. For their spring 2025 collections, both Miu Miu and Jacquemus gave poplin skirts a thumbs-up, with the former championing knee-length styles and the latter embracing flowing, ankle-grazing versions with a whimsical twist.
When it comes to styling, your options are truly limitless - the M&S skirt acts as a blank canvas, ready to be worn with anything you own, in any print and colourway. Think cute printed baby tees worn by the likes of Bella Hadid, or Savile-Row style pinstripe waistcoats for a touch of sophistication. For date night, when dressing up for the occasion is a must, pair the skirt with a black bandeau top and a pair of kitten heels, not forgetting accessories.
Shop now, before like the black version, it completely sells out.
