Now that summer is practically here, many of us will be swapping out our usual winter uniform of oversized jeans and joggers for something a bit more suitable for the warmer weather. Midi skirts are an easy go-to when the sun is shining, designed to keep you cool and collected while being undeniably chic.
New Look is known for its gorgeous summer range but there is one skirt in particular that fashion fans are snapping up in droves. The timeless piece in question, is, of course, the Stone Textured Midi Skirt, which comes in at just £19.99.
The budget-friendly skirt has been constructed in a timeless design, updated with a textured finish, which is perfect for day or night. The £19.99 number has been designed to look just as good with heels as it does with chunky trainers, thanks to its midi length.

The skirt also features an elasticated waist, which is especially great if you’re prone to bloating after lunch. Plus, the elegant A-line fit and stone colourway ensures that it is going to become a staple in your summer wardrobe for years to come.
To be bang on trend you could pair the Stone Textured Midi Skirt with New Look’s Mid Blue Denim Waistcoat, which is available for £29.99. Or you could opt for a graphic tee, we like this £11.99 Mink Cherub Print Cotton T-Shirt, for a more casual look.
At New Look the Stone Textured Midi Skirt has racked up an impressive overall star-rating of 4.8 out of five from 30 reviews. One shopper said: “Lovely skirt. Perfect fit and it’s nice and lightweight while still being good quality.”
A second wrote: “Amazing. I was so sceptical about this skirt, because I wasn’t sure if the material would fit around my thighs and bum. But it’s amazing, it fits nicely on my waist and thighs and the length is really nice. I also ordered the denim waist coat which just looks beautiful. Could dress this up or down for work or going out. I am a size 16 for reference and my waist is smaller and I have bigger legs and bum and it really nicely on me.”
A third penned: “Love this skirt. Right on trend with the natural colour. Good quality and a lovely alternative to jeans now spring is here. This will be great for both formal and casual occasions and I am looking forward to wearing it.”
“Love this skirt, it’s just what I’ve been looking for,” mentioned another. “Lovely material, not see through, perfect length.” Another happy customer wrote: “Nice casual light flowing midi. Not figure hugging as I sized up. Could dress up or down easily.”
However, one person gave the Stone Textured Midi Skirt a three-star review – the lowest rating online – because the ‘colour is darker than expected’. They wrote: “Colour a lot darker than pictured, I returned because of this as it wasn’t a nice colour. I bought a similar new look skirt to replace it. Fit wise, though, it was fine. I’m 5ft and a size 10 and I’d say it’s true to size.”
But another loved their latest New Look purchase, adding: “Lovely skirt, Very flattering, lightweight skirt. Perfect for summer. Gorgeous colour, too.” A countless other happy shopper also agreed, mentioning: “Perfect for summer, comfortable, lightweight and pretty.”
