Going on holiday and I want a short skirt to wear for casual that will just pull on and off over swim cossie. So ideally jersey type material? I can't find one anywhere?

H&m - plain stretch Jersey in multiple lengths, sizes and colours!

Thanks trump. They aren't really what I'm after and are all knee length.... would look awful on me.

That could work apple ... you don't think it would look too 'smart' by the pool? Going to a large complex and you're not allowed 'pool wear' in the restaurant so no sarongs obviously!

They do those H&M ones in loads of colours - a grey or bright one would look fine both poolside and inside I reckon Smile

Have you thought of a dress so you can wack it on and be totally dressed?

lor dresses generally don't suit me. I'm only 5'2 and last time I went away I bought a dress I thought fitted the bill and it looked awful so didn't wear it!

That's nice skinny but me and white don't mix Grin plus guarantee I'd get sun cream on it and that stains

Fair enough purple I never wear white either! But could just imagine schlepping from pool to bar in that (with no kids to put their sticky fingers on it, or me spilling my red wine!!)

In an ideal world I would wear white but I don't for all the above reasons Grin

That asos ones I think I will order first as possibly will look ok on me I think?! They'd look ok with a vest top on top wouldn't they?

M&S knot front beach dress, various colours, particularly like the striped one. Bought a couple and think they are quite flattering and forgiving Grin

What about the pink M&S sack dress?
That would cover a swimsuit

Just kidding.

It's called something like "linen rich straight mini skirt" on M&S. Haha don't worry it's not actually "mini" - just above knee length!
