I have HORRIBLE legs ... help me find a skirt please!

I've got white, skinny, varicose vein-y legs. I'm a size 8/10, reasonably thin but my tummy is another weak spot (thanks to my 4 wonderful DC ) ... but I want a skirt for summer - and something to wear with it. Strictly casual wear - probably with flats but if someone can suggest otherwise, I'm more than happy to look. I love wearing skirts/leggings in the winter when I can pull on thick tights and long boots, thus hiding the skinniest calves in the world. It's a challenge, but is there anything suitable out there?

Thanks!

Going to do school run now but shall check back later!

I would have thought White Stuff is the place to try

Grr ... white stuff all too short. Guess I'm thinking mid-calf or so, if that's not well and truly middle-aged and dowdy .

My legs aren't great but whilst I've been pg I have worn a dress, leggings and flats and had lots of compliments. It's not this dress, it's actually nicer patterned, more dressy and really emphasises the bust but sort of like this

Monsoon also have a lot of lovely longer length summer skirts.

Thanks Dinah ... good ideas. Hadn't really considered leggings for summer & some nice skirts on Monsoon's website. Am off to bed now but will have a proper browse tomorrow.
