I like skirts with pockets. cargo skirts, one might say. This one fits the bill nicely- there is a large zippered pocket on the right hip, and two smaller snap pockets. The lower pocket can be annoying if there is something heavy in it, especially when riding a bike, so I usually don't have anything in it.

The nice thing about this skirt is that it doesn't appear overly sporty/technical-- it resists all of the abuse I throw at it all day, and still looks nice if I end up going out to dinner. The skirt hits right at the knee which works well for me. The fabric resists wrinkling better than my other technical skirts, and the hint of a ruffle at the bottom gives it a bit of a feminine fillip without being overly fussy. Solid win all around.
