Ahead, go on to see some of my personal favorite images featuring this new trend and shop the pieces you'll need to get the look. Thanks to Marcia's Instagram-friendly cutout dresses, Jacquemus' famous diagonal button-closure sweater, With Jean's kitschy cropped cardigans, and more, there is now a vast array of garments to choose from should you be interested in dabbling with this-fine, I'll say it- unpractical new trend. While yes, I personally am a huge fan of this trend, celebrities and fashion have also taken a major liking to this revealing new detail, so we can only assume this is just the beginning of the trend's lifecycle.Īfter over a year of living in sweats and leggings, testing out a risqué trend doesn't seem like the worst idea, and I have an inkling that some of you might even be craving it. As a wearer, I assure you that you have nothing to fear-this trend only looks like it's about to break at the seams, but it surely won't. I’d also love to see the skirt in Wild Indigo, because if I was going to invest in another athletic skirt I don’t really need, I’d probably go for that color bc it’s just so darn pretty.That's half the fun of this trend though, isn't it? These peephole-like cutouts create a feeling of suspense as you initially lay eyes on them, but after a while, you'll realize that's the whole intention of the garment-to evoke curiosity, excitement, and if we're being honest, a little bit of anxiety. Again, I think I’d like to try on the size 6 to compare the fits between the two sizes. It fit well, it was flattering, it was comfortable, it gave plenty coverage without feeling dowdy. But that could be 100% off-base and maybe I totally made up that people do that (?). And there’s a break in the silicon just under that pocket that my non-tennis self can only assume is for those who would rather tuck a tennis ball under the shorts vs using the pocket. I should also mention that if you are actually a tennis girlie, there are ball pockets built into the sides of each legs of the shorts liner. Skirt length by size (length is measured at the center front, from the top of the waistband to the hem shorts liner length is the same 4″ length for all sizes): The short’s bottom hems have sticky silicone bits to prevent movement so whether you want to wear the shorts longer or shorter, they’ll stay where you want them. This could be great for those who want a little extra leg coverage, but were also easy and comfortable to pull up a little bit so they weren’t easily visible under the skirt. Peck & Peck Plus Signature Bootcut 5 Pocket Denim Jean - Plus. The built-in shorts 4″ inseam felt a little longer than the Pace Rival *Long’s (3.5″ inseam) and Court Rival *Long’s (4″ inseam), which was interesting. Peck & Peck Signature 5 Pocket Bootcut Jean With Bling Back Pocket. I did have to use the skirt’s internal drawstring to cinch the waistband a bit, and now I’m kind of wishing I’d tried on the 6 as well just for comparison (I do size down to a 6 in the Court Rival Skirt), but overall the fit was good. But it looks so clean and fresh, and conjures up thoughts of preppy summer tennis ‘fits which are so outside my usual style that I’m feeling so drawn to them right now.Īnyway, I grabbed my usual lululemon size in both the skirt and new Sculpt Cropped Tank, which is an 8, and both fit true-to-size. I usually avoid white bc I’m a messy girlie and white usually ends up immediately stained with coffee or food or something random I couldn’t name.

So needless to say, I don’t necessarily need a new skirt - but I couldn’t resist those cute little side pleats. I have a few lululemon skirts from the last decade plus: the Pace Setter from a million years ago, the Pace Rival from half a million years ago and a few Court Rivals from last year. Ok, I don’t play tennis but that didn’t stop me from immediately trying on the lululemon’s new Peek Pleat High-Rise Tennis Skirt the day it hit the sales floor at my local store.
