Can you help me find DD 15 a new skirt?

Can I ask if the collective wisdom of the style and beauty board can help me find a skirt for DD 15 for Xmas?

She is not a mini skirt girls at all, likes very retro / vintage mixed up with new and is petite size 8. She mainly wears 80s clothes (stolen from the back of my wardrobe) sometimes channels the 50s and otherwise is in jeans.

She wants an A line / swooshy winter skirt - not too long since she is tiny and potentially to team with a fluffy fitted jumper - but hasn't had any luck finding such a thing in the shops. She has a nice gold sequin one from last year, and a soft blue / silver one from Coast earlier this year when we went to a wedding so I don't think she wants party style but every day IYSWIM.

So ladies any ideas ?

Asos have some nice midi skirts- lots of choice. Perhaps a tartan/checked one would work. I would possibly go for a 6 rather than 8 in Asos though if she is a small 8.

Tasha Skirt

Ooh lots of ideas ! The Tasha one is def not swingy enough though!

Really like the H&M one but not sure about the colour, the top shop patterned one is fab Although I need to check she has a jumper that would match in, might go and have a look at ASOS too. The silver urban outfitters is great !
