13 Best Winter Wool Skirts for Travel

Skirts are essential winter pieces that make any outfit look very feminine. There are classical, casual, and two-in-one options according to how we style them. When we pack for a trip, we never travel without one or more skirts because we love wearing them. In the cold season, we stick to winter wool skirts. There are plenty of options to wear while traveling, and they can be very practical too. In this review, we picked some of the best wool skirts we tried to take on our next trip abroad.

We tried maxi, midi, bodycon, and flare skirts, all of which roll easily in a travel bag. So, don’t be hesitant to pack skirts while traveling. If you don’t know where to start, we’re here to help. Here is our list of the best skirts for this season. We also included a checklist to help you while shopping for a new skirt before traveling.

Ylingjun Elastic High Waisted A Line Flared Pleated Wool Skirt

13

The first skirt we tried is the Ylingjun Elastic High Waisted A Line Flared Pleated Wool Skirt. There are so many flare and A-line skirts, but not all of them shape the body the way this skirt does. The high-rise waist flattens the belly, although it felt slightly tough around our waist. Moreover, the side pockets are so practical when it comes to traveling. We had our hands free as the mobile and cards had their places inside the pockets. Wool skirts are sometimes itchy, but we found this skirt to be lined from the inside. Thus, even if the wool material is made of itches, we never feel it because an inner layer touches our bodies.

The best look we donned while wearing this skirt was when we paired it with boots. We would also prefer to go for high-heeled boots for a classier look. Yet, it goes with flats and other shoe styles as well.

WDIRARA High Waist Button Front Mini Skirt

12

Best mini skirt. WDIRARA High Waist Button Front Mini Skirt is a very straightforward skirt. It’s a mini skirt with a front button and a zipper. Sometimes, all we need is this simple skirt for a business trip or to attend a meeting. What urged us to check this skirt too is the price. It’s very affordable, considering the material. We found only two colors of this skirt: grey and black. Both colors in this skirt look elegant. We went for the grey one to match it with tight black or white sweaters. It will also go very well with leather jackets. Here is a list of the best Lululemon winter jackets to pair with the skirt.

We have to mention that the skirt isn’t stretchable at all. Thus, we had to check the size guide very well before buying. The waist isn’t stretchable either, but this skirt is a nice purchase if you get the right size.

chouyatou Adjustable Waist Flounce A-Line Plaid Midi Wrap Skirt

11

For a business trip, chouyatou Adjustable Waist Flounce A-Line Plaid Midi Wrap Skirt is elegant work wear. The skirt runs a bit small, but the wrap-up waist offered us a bit of adjustability. You better size up if you don’t want the skirt to hug your thighs tightly. We picked a larger size for this reason, as we also wanted something more convenient for work. The flounce edges add weight but don’t make us look bulky. As for the length, the skirt hits the right length we aimed for. It’s just below the knee, which is, in our opinion, the best length for the flounce-edged cut. To get a businesswoman style, we already had a white classy shirt and bought a pair of cute sandals to wear with the skirt. For more styling options, we plan to wear it with a short blazer and a tight basic.

Kinghua Mini High Waisted Lace Up Pleated Skater Skirt

10

With a pair of very long boots, we looked so girly in this Kinghua Mini High Waisted Lace Up Pleated Skater Skirt. We chose the pink plaid for a more girlish vibe; it’s so sweaty, and the laces add a vintage style. We could wear this skirt everywhere even when it’s windy as there are sewen shorts under the skirt. For modest women, you can wear long boots as we did and stay warm if it’s too cold. The skirt is far from classical outfits, although it has this traditional plaid pattern. The flared cut and above-knee length make it look so casual and suitable for morning outings.

Depending on your destination, you can go for a skirt like this one. For example, we wore it for a sightseeing trip that didn’t require too much activity. It looked so attractive; we felt it as we got so many questions asking about where to buy a similar skirt. Here, we’re giving you the clue.

ZAFUL A-Line Pleated Midi Tartan Skirt with Pockets

9

We ended up buying two of the ZAFUL A-Line Pleated Midi Tartan Skirt with Pockets as we couldn’t make up our minds about whether to buy the camel skirt or the orange plaid one. Both looked fashionable, just like what we were thinking for our next trip. The A-line cut is our favorite for traveling; it’s the most convenient skirt design, and this one doesn’t ride up. So, thumbs up for this purchase. What’s more, the waist is elastic from the back side, and there is a hidden side zipper, so it fits easily. We didn’t expect this skirt to be that heavy. We wanted to wear it immediately after we bought it, but we think it isn’t suitable for the fall season. Anyway, we will keep it for winter till we think of different styling options.

IDEALSANXUN Long High Waist Vintage Pleated Skirt

8

We would wear IDEALSANXUN Long High Waist Vintage Pleated Skirt every time we travel for work. This skirt looks so classy, neat, and elegant. It has all it takes for an effortless business look. Plus, it isn’t too heavy and not too lightweight, hence, it’s suitable for different seasons. The dark coffee color was the one we tried. Paired with a cream sweater, we had a typical fall classical outfit. To complement the look, we searched for a suitable small handbag in the same color as the skirt. We have a couple of options in this list of the best travel fall and winter handbags. Another pro feature of this skirt is the slim look it offers. It isn’t too pleated and not too tight around the body. It flatters and slims, offering the body shape all women will love.

Hoerev Versatile Plaid Pleated Skirt with Shorts

7

Best material. We didn’t have to wear anything under the Hoerev Versatile Plaid Pleated Skirt with Shorts because, as you can guess from the name, it has sewen-in shorts. This skirt is worth every penny, considering the style and material. We were looking for a mini plaid pleated skirt and found this amazing garment to add to our winter wardrobe. Mini skirts usually ride up, so they weren’t our favorite choice for traveling. However, with this skirt’s built-in shorts, we no longer have this problem. Also, the material of the skirt is thick and stiff, so it doesn’t move easily. This thick material is good for winter, although we were afraid it might itch. Yet, it turned out to be very soft, adding to our love for this skirt.

“We felt so girly in this skirt, we got lots of compliments that we think of buying more colors. And it isn’t pricey at all!”

Belle Poque Vintage A-Line High-Waisted Midi Skirt with Pockets & Buttons

6

This isn’t our first time to buy a skirt from Belle Poque. There are a couple of elegant skirts; we browsed them all and chose the Belle Poque Vintage A-Line High-Waisted Midi Skirt with Pockets & Buttons. It seems like we have a special love for the plaid pattern when it comes to winter woolen skirts. This pattern never fails us, and it never goes off-trend. What’s more, it’s so easy to style and pair with several pieces. The buttons on the waist look beautiful, and the waistline has an elastic part on the back to fit different bodies.

What’s more, the skirt flows nicely, hiding imperfections and showing off a womanly side we loved a lot. If you aren’t into plaid patterns, there are some solid-colored options. You can check the official website of Belle Poque to see all the features of the skirt and how you should take care of it.

Tanming High Waist A-Line Midi Skirt with Belt Loops

5

We looked so neat in Tanming High Waist A-Line Midi Skirt with Belt Loops. The camel and red wine options are our favorites. They remind us of old vintage looks, so we added a vintage hat to complement the look. You can see our review of the best winter hats for women. The skirt is heavy and warm. There are two pockets to place your hands and keep them warm. Otherwise, we put a mobile in one pocket and a wallet in the second, yet, the pockets didn’t look bulky. This skirt is the best for women who have belly fat, as the belt and the elastic waist hide any belly fat. Further, the cut flatters the body perfectly; it’s the best winter skirt for hiding all the imperfections.

For a change, we plan to purchase a couple of belts and wear them with a tucked-in sweater. We’re also considering the black skirt, which fits most of our winter sweaters.

Kinghua Plaid Mini High-Waisted Bodycon Pencil Skirt

4

Kinghua Plaid Mini High-Waisted Bodycon Pencil Skirt looks perfect in the picture and in reality, too. It fits perfectly, especially for hourglass bodies. The skirt is high-waisted, so it will look good and feminine even for short women. Even though it doesn’t stretch, we didn’t feel the skirt was tight. It shapes the body nicely and makes us feel and look sexy. There is a variety of plaid patterns to choose from. We would choose all of them if possible, but the green plaid pattern paired with a black blouse is our first outfit for now. We received a lot of compliments when wearing this outfit.

This skirt comes in different sizes, and some of the patterns are available in plus sizes as well. Check out how the plus-size is styled in this video from Asijasimone. And if you want to style it in your own way, here are the best plus-size jackets for winter.

Tanming Elastic Waist Wool Plaid A-Line Pleated Long Skirt

3

Most practical. For a trip with a lot of walking, the Tanming Elastic Waist Wool Plaid A-Line Pleated Long Skirt is one of the best wool skirts for winter. This skirt is super comfy and convenient while moving around. The wool material is comfortable, but it sometimes sticks, so we had to wear shorts under the skirt. We wore the skirt on a day that was colder than the other days of the week, but we didn’t feel cold as the skirt was warm and heavy.
Moreover, the pockets are great to have in a wool skirt like this one. They’re deep enough for a mobile phone. Also, we could place our hands inside to warm them when we’re out during cold weather. The skirt is suitable for classical outfits but could be styled in a semi-formal way as well. The blouse or sweater and shoes will change how the total outfit looks. You can also wear a pair of gloves if it’s too cold. Check out our list of the best fingerless gloves for winter travel.

Kate Kasin Knee Length Bodycon Business Pencil Skirt

2

Best for classical outfits. Kate Kasin Knee Length Bodycon Business Pencil Skirt is one of the most elegant winter woolen skirts we have ever worn. This skirt fits us and hugs the thighs and butts in a very feminine way. It flatters and shows off the nice curves without being see-through. It’s made of super stretchy wool material that looks too elegant. And the patterns! This is our favorite part. We browsed the tens of options before purchasing any of them, but we were so confused because we love them all. Finally, we decided to go for the tweed pattern as it’s a bit different from what we already have.

When it’s cool outside, we pair it with an oversized sweater and tuck part of it into the skirt. Alternatively, when the weather is warm, we wear it with a simple blouse completely tucked into the skirt to get a classy business look. Don’t forget to check out the different options and care tips on Katekasin’s official website.

IDEALSANXUN Plaid A-Line Wool Skirt

1

IDEALSANXUN Plaid A-Line Wool Skirt won our hearts and got the first rank on our list for several reasons. This long skirt has an elastic waist, so it fits anybody easily. Further, the A-line design is a bit flared. It hides any imperfections and gives a feminine look at the same time. There are sizes up to 3X, so we never worry about finding our sizes. The skirt goes nicely with a tight sweater with a turtleneck when it’s too cold. On the other hand, it looks very classy with a classic jacket and a wool shirt. We bought this purple plaid option down below in the image and paired it with a solid-colored rose sweater. It looked amazing and very flattering.

The length is perfect, showing the shoes while covering the legs when it’s cold. We believe that it’s a very practical option for traveling, as we can move easily and freely while wearing this skirt. For more convenience, pick one of our best winter walking shoes for women.

How To Choose The Best Winter Wool Skirts?

To choose a good wool skirt for our next trip, we prepared a simple checklist to use while searching. Here we’re sharing our checklist here.

Packing

Most skirts are easy to pack by rolling them up; sometimes, we use organizers, too. However, some skirts have several accessories, such as belts, buttons on the pockets, etc. When choosing a skirt to travel, we prefer simple skirts that pack easily. Also, we want lightweight skirts that don’t feel heavy in our bags.

Style

Choose a skirt that allows for different styles. We always do this so we can have different outfits from the fewest pieces. One time, we wear a skirt with a coat and boots, and the other time, we wear a sweater and sneakers. You can check these lists of the best winter coats for warmth and the best cheap winter coats for travel.

Length

We love all lengths! It all depends on our destination and what we will be doing on our trip. Also, the weather is very important to check before traveling as sometimes wool mini skirts aren’t suitable for certain weather conditions.

How can I style a maxi wool skirt?

The simplest way to style a long skirt is to pair it with a fitted sweater. The sweater’s color or pattern depends on the skirt’s pattern. You can add a scarf for an effortless, chic, and simple look.

Are wool skirts practical and comfortable?

Wool can feel itchy for some people, but high-quality wool is usually skin-friendly. So, most wool skirts are comfortable, and flare ones are very practical, too.

How can I wash a wool skirt?

You can hand-wash wool garments or use the washing machine on a gentle cycle. Never use hot water with wool because it might stretch or lint.
