This selection brings together women's wardrobe essentials, carefully chosen by Béryl. For a casual look, an office outfit, or a dressier occasion.
Béryl's advice
Béryl, Founder of Hello Moon Shop, 10+ years of experience in ready-to-wear
With a skirt or shorts, don't focus only on length. What really makes the difference is where it sits on the waist. A well-fitted waistband naturally enhances the silhouette and provides a much more elegant drape.
If you choose a light-colored or fluid style, check that it is lined. You will gain comfort and avoid unpleasant surprises in direct sunlight.
How do you choose and wear your skirt or shorts?
Length remains the first criterion to decide on before considering fabric and pattern.
- A midi or above-the-knee skirt remains the most versatile: with a fitted top for a casual look, or with a blouse for a dressier silhouette.
- A pleated skirt naturally complements a fine-knit sweater or turtleneck top for a transitional-season look.
- A faux-leather skirt creates a lovely contrast with more feminine pieces such as a lace blouse or dotted Swiss blouse.
- A long slit skirt, worn with a fitted top, adds a bohemian and sensual touch.
- Bermuda shorts, paired with sneakers or sandals, create a comfortable summer outfit.
A skirt that works across several seasons is recognizable by its timeless cut and easy-to-match color: black, beige, camel, gray, or navy.

Béryl's tip : Don't look for the “right” length; look for the one you feel comfortable in. A mini skirt with an oversized sweater, a midi skirt with sneakers, or denim shorts paired with a loose-fitting shirt… these combinations often create the most stylish looks. The idea is to break the rules rather than aim for an overly perfect outfit.

The RONY shorts: The RONY Shorts are popular for their cut, which flatters the legs without being too close-fitting. The denim is comfortable to wear, and the frayed finishes give them just the right amount of character.
Frequently asked questions
Which skirt should you wear in spring? A cotton or lightweight denim skirt that remains comfortable even on slightly cool mornings.
Can you wear a skirt in winter? Yes, by choosing one in a thick material such as faux leather or wool and pairing it with opaque or patterned tights.
Shorts or a skirt—which should you choose for an active day? Bermuda shorts offer greater freedom of movement; a pleated skirt remains comfortable while maintaining a more dressed-up look.
Which skirt color is easiest to pair? Neutral shades such as black, beige, camel, gray, and navy blue go with most tops.
How do you choose the right skirt length? It mainly depends on your everyday freedom of movement (walking, transport, sitting) rather than a strict rule related to height. The size guide helps you find the right fit at the waist and hips.
