I really liked this skort it seemed like it would work well for what I do and where I live (tropical climate) however it was pretty tight in thr waist band in the medium. The waist is a strong not overly stretchy band too.  Im worried the next size up will fit my waist but then be baggy on the hip area. Im a very straight no curve body type so this is a common issue. Wish the size chart would be more accurate. It was a little bit shorter then I would have liked as well in the medium I like my work skorts to come to bottom of my finger tips when I hold them by my thighs. This was few inches above that. I normally wear the eddy Bauer skorts but wanted some brighter colors, leading me to try these. Oh well maybe I will try the large not sure tho
