This is the versatile skirt you will wear every day on a week-long summer holiday

If there's one time when you definitely need a practical but pretty versatile skirt, it's holiday time

I have something, no, three items to add to your cabin bag capsule wardrobe. A plain black swimsuit, a belt (they're back, you know), and this skirt. New to & Other Stories, this 'lengthy skirt' is one of the best buys you'll make this summer. It's part nineties, part Granny-chic, full versatile skirt goodness. And it suits every shape and size.

This is the type of skirt you can create five + outfits with. Wear at night with heels, wear to the beach with sandals over your black swimsuit, wear during a day-trip with a white tee and runners. Then bring it home and wear to work.

• & Other Stories €59

That subtle slit. Can't you see Gwen Stefani in the 'Don't Speak' days wearing this?

What makes this skirt a brilliant summer buy is the flattering shade of red with the cute but not too cute off-white print; this colour scheme lets you wear it with white or black. The & Other Stories model sports a summer in the city ensemble, but the nature of the skirt means it's a pure seaside town holiday staple.
