Tikka, have a look at Funky Fit if you want a teeny skort. When they say "size up" they're not kidding. The XS is slightly beyond compressive on me.

I'm not a skort wearer so can't comment on sizing but Tikiboo do XS and XXS skorts and if the sizing is akin to other items, I'd assume either of those could work for her...

Tikiboo skorts are also on the dainty side. I have one that's a small, but I reckon a medium wouldn't fall down.

Thanks for the advice, ladies. šŸ˜ Iā€™ve had a look at both sites and think she would really like the FF ā€˜Butterfliesā€™ one. Having seen a recent picture of her, sheā€™s quite skinny at the moment so I think XS should be fine.

If I had the legs, not to mention the nerve, to wear a skort, Iā€™d be tempted to buy the ā€˜Flying The Flagsā€™ one for myself in honour of the Glorious Twelfth. šŸ˜œšŸ˜‚

I discovered the smallness of the Funky Fit kit as the result of a post-jubilee "Flying the Flags" purchase, Tikka :-O I wasn't planning to bring it to NI with me, but if you'd like it ... ;)

I donā€™t think Iā€™d have the nerve too wear it in these parts, Vā€™Rap! I do live in an area that would be supportive of me pinning my colours to the mast, but frequently run through streets that most definitely would not. But Iā€™ll keep thinking about it as it is rather lovely...

Anyway, spoke too soon, no XS left in FF so Iā€™m going to go for the also very lovely Tikiboo ā€˜Aquariusā€™ instead, on the basis that I donā€™t think it matters that itā€™s not her star sign.

Great choice, I have shorts, bra and leggings in the Aquarius and it's gorgeous - I'm not that star sign either!!

I have succumbed and added a skort for myself to my sisterā€™s order. šŸ˜® I donā€™t think Iā€™ll have the nerve to wear it outside but it dawned on me that it would be comfortable attire for WFH. Without this thread it would never have occurred to me to contemplate shorts, never mind a shorts and a *skirt*. I havenā€™t worn a skirt (or dress) since the day and hour I left school. šŸ˜® Iā€™ve started relatively conservatively and gone for ā€˜Monochromeā€™.
