Yes. I love this skirt. I am always wary buying clothes online, but who has time to go to a brick and mortar store and try on dozens of clothes? Not me.I have this skirt in Petite and the Khaki color. I went up a size because I hate tight waistbands. If tight clothes don't bother you, feel free to buy your regular size after reading the sizing chart.I'm always careful to machine wash it and then hang it to dry. (I did once accidentally put it in the dryer, and it was fine, but I prefer good fabric to only be air dried to save wear and tear and possible shrinkage.)After hanging to dry it looks like it has been ironed... without the hassle of ironing. (Really, who has time to iron clothes?)It not only looks great for seeing patients, going out (yes, we will go out again... sometime) and for virtually any occasion casual or dressy.And, it has POCKETS! As women we really need to not only demand pockets, but buy well made clothing with pockets. Can you imagine a man buying pants or even a shirt without pockets? Not my man. I once bought him a nice cotton and linen collar button down shirt that he likes, but he rarely wears it because it has no breast pocket. We should demand the same convenience. And, this skirt has slit side pockets that do not bulge or distort the line or silhouette of the piece. Perfect.As women, we need pockets, as well. For our phones, our hankies, a pony tail holder, Lego we find on the floor to put away later, a wrapped feeding syringe for a baby, a pair of nitrile gloves in a plastic bag for exams during house calls, an earring that a tiny patient has pulled off one's ear.... whatever. Pockets are essential, especially if one is not wearing scrubs. (Which always have pockets.)It is unlined, but is not see-through at all. If I want I can use a cotton or nylon slip under it. (Chances are I'll use a cotton slip, even in the winter.) It is cool enough by not having a lining to wear in summer and then paired with a slip and tights or leg warmers for warmth in the winter.This skirt hangs nicely, it can be dressed up or down depending on what top or blouse and jewelry you pair it with and although it does wrinkle a little bit by the end the day, especially if you are sitting down and getting up a lot, it still looks really nice when your shift is over.It's 55% linen and 45% cotton, so you are going to get some wrinkling, but a wash and hanging it to dry will take care of those wrinkles... or a spritz of anti-wrinkle spray and wiping it down with fabric to push out the wrinkles (I use one of my husband's clean T Shirts) and it's as good as new. I am always on the lookout for linen clothing because they hang so nicely and wear beautifully. I was a bit wary, again, as... you know, it's Amazon, but this skirt feels and wears like a linen/cotton blend. I'm sure it is what the label says. It has a hand like a linen/cotton blend and looks and wears like it. I have no reason to doubt it is what it says.I've gotten compliments on it and I can pair it with just about anything. A nice top, a blouse, with a petite necklace, even scrubs or a jacket.I am thinking of buying anther in another color as I love this skirt so much.If you love to wear skirts and need pockets and a beautiful linen/cotton blend skirt that can be worn for almost any occasion, you may love this skirt as much as I do.
