With spring finally on the horizon, many of us are seeking wardrobe staples for the season ahead that are both comfortable and stylish. Roman is now offering its pleated midi stretch skirt for £32, but shoppers can currently use the code FLORAL to get 10% off, taking the price to just £28.80.

The skirt, which comes in navy, black and various patterned designs, features a full length and a comfy elasticated waistband making it both a practical and chic option. The item is also super versatile, working as well for the office with a light knit as it would for evening and weekend plans styled with a shirt or T-shirt.

What’s more, the shoe options are endless – dress up with heels or wear with sandals or trainers for daytime looks. Other spring ready skirts we’ve spotted on the high street include New Look’s classic Blue Striped Cotton Seersucker Circle Maxi Skirt which features a timeless design and costs £32.99.

Over at Nobody’s Child and those who are partial to a fun print may wish to shop the retailer’s White Tomato Print Maxi Skirt which has been slashed in price from £69 to a mere £27, and what’s more shoppers can add the code SPRING15 at checkout to get a further 15% off, taking the price to £22.95.

Back to Roman, and the pleated midi stretch skirt can be worn now and styled well into summer, giving fashion enthusiasts maximum bang for their buck. The black and navy options are ideal for those who prefer more neutral outfits or who want to tone down more playful items they already own, while the patterned styles can easily be teamed with a plain top for an effortless look.

Roman’s customers have given the skirt – which comes in UK sizes 10-20 – high praise, with one commenting: “I love this skirt and worn with a v neck jumper (Roman), it is slimming. It feels and looks feminine!”

Meanwhile another liked how versatile the item is, writing: “Great skirt for any occasion, you can dress it up or wear it casually. Looks great with heels or flat shoes, even white pumps. Great material for easy washing.”

A third said: “Lovely skirt. Dress up or down! Love it! It’s light and swishes plus lovely and long. Would buy in other colours.”

It is worth noting that one reviewer felt the skirt may perhaps be best suited to taller shoppers, commenting: “Wanted a navy pleated skirt – a little long but pleased.”

Despite this, others had high praise for the item, with another Roman customer writing: “Love it! Looks and feels good. Will get lots of wear of it.”
