I recently bought this skirt, and it has quickly become a staple in my wardrobe! It’s incredibly versatile — I wore it during my recent trip and also styled it for the office. The fabric is breathable and lightweight, making it perfect for travel, especially when you’re on the go for long hours. It didn’t wrinkle easily, which was a huge bonus for packing!
At the same time, the fit is polished and professional. Pair it with a blouse and blazer, and you’re office-ready in minutes. I also love that it has pockets — super practical without compromising the look.
Whether you’re walking around a new city or heading to a client meeting, this skirt transitions beautifully. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a stylish and functional piece!

Recently snagged the Taavi Black & Maroon Kalamkari Hand Block Print Maxi Skirt from Myntra, and it’s a winner. The pure cotton feels great, and the skirt’s visual appeal matches the online glam. However, sizing is a hiccup; I ordered a 34 for a 36 waist, and it’s a tad loose.
The tag mentions detachable tassels, but my skirt arrived sans tassels, raising a brow. The cloth anklet shown in the image didn’t accompany my order, creating some confusion amidst contradictory reviews.
I’ve hand washed the skirt twice, and both times the color did bleed — with the first wash showing the most bleeding. Still, this skirt nails an ethnic-fusion vibe when styled right. Despite minor quirks, I’d recommend the Bagru Hand Block Painted Skirt for its flair, comfort, and one-of-a-kind design.
