Laura Harrier Wore the One Summer Skirt Trend That I Refuse to Ditch Come Fall
Certain wardrobe items are seasonal and unsuitable for year-round use, no matter how much it pains you to store them away once summer is over. For example, flip-flops, crochet dresses, and most items made from linen. These items have their time in the sun (literally) but must be stowed away for fall, winter, and much of spring.
Until recently, white A-line skirts would've met the same fate. But Prada's F/W 23 collection showcased a bevy of styling maneuvers capable of keeping the popular summer staple around throughout the colder months. To pull it off, you need neutral knits, a leather blazer, and a pair of summery white kitten heels. Now you'll have to pry my white skirts from my cold, winter-chapped hands. And even then, I'll hold on tight.
I can only imagine others feel the same, especially those who love the A-line silhouette, like Laura Harrier. The actress recently shared a slideshow on Instagram in which she was wearing a white A-line skirt while sipping a matcha latte outside an L.A. cafe. "[I've] fully switched from coffee to matcha. My L.A. assimilation is complete," Harrier's caption reads.
Harrier kept her look summery with a white cropped tube top, a cord necklace, The Row flip-flops, and oval sunglasses. But, with next season's drop in temperatures, I see no reason why her exact skirt couldn't be entirely reworked to become a fall mainstay. Keep scrolling to see her look and shop all of the white A-line skirts I'm considering adding to my wardrobe ahead of autumn.

Fabric with eyelets is another summer design detail I'd usually suggest storing away in the fall, though this skirt is changing my mind rather quickly.
I've been dying to get my hands on this Reformation skirt since I tried it on earlier this summer.
Going with denim is genius if you want your skirt to be practical 365 days a year.
This skirt is the definition of beautiful. I can't stop looking at it.
As you can see, boots look just as good with a flowy white skirt as flip flops do.
I'm making an exception to my rule about retiring linen pieces. This Eileen Fisher skirt is that good.
This one has the durability of denim with the billowiness of cotton.
Proenza Schouler can do no wrong. I should get that tattooed given how much I say it.
If the above Khaite denim skirt is a bit outside of your fall budget, try this one from Banana Republic instead.
The leather trim makes this skirt feel like an obvious pick for fall.
The more than 50% off price tag makes this option even better.
