Fit and Function

The Woolx Marilyn Flowy Midi Skirt is an easy to wear skirt, appropriate for a wide range of seasons and occasions.

I am a size medium on the Woolx size guide. I found that I needed to size down to a size small for the Woolx Marilyn Flowy Midi Skirt. The size medium was a bit too large in all dimensions. The size small fit me better across the hips. The waist band is a wide yoga-style that offers a bit of compression (especially when sized down). I preferred the smaller size for a little midsection support; the size small waistline does come up to my lower ribs. I actually like this for skirts and the higher waist meant that the bottom hem was also raised a slight amount. If you like a more relaxed, lower waist, then you might want to consider ordering your regular size.

The cut of the Woolx Marilyn Flowy Midi Skirt is very flattering. The A-line style is flattering across a wide range of bodies. The lightweight Merino wool drapes and moves wonderfully, with no awkward bunching as you walk.

The two drop in hand pockets are also well placed. They lay flat against you and don’t add volume to the hip area. The pockets are in a natural spot for placing your hands and are well sized, easily holding keys or a phone.

I’ve been wearing the Woolx Marilyn Flowy Midi Skirt to my office. The skirt packs up nicely in my gym bag and doesn’t show any wrinkles after a few hours of sitting at my desk. I imagine the skirt will also work well in the winter, paired with thicker tights and tall boots. The skirt can also be dressed down, with a tank top or simple t-shirt, making it a nice option for brunch concerts, or farmers markets.

The Woolx Marilyn Flowy Midi Skirt is available in women’s sizes ranging from XS to XXL and in three colorways (black, graphite heather, navy).

Erin Trail’s hobby is collecting hobbies. She’s a 5th Generation Coloradan and grew up exploring the outdoors on family camping trips and hikes. Her first backpacking trip was at eight years old to Grizzly Reservoir – she proudly carried all of her own gear those 3 miles from the main parking lot to the Reservoir.

Erin is an adult-onset athlete who started as a Masters Swimmer and then developed into a triathlete. She has completed 5 Ironman races and nearly 20 x 70.3 distance Ironman races, including the World Championship in Lahti, Finland, in 2023. In 2025, she raced for Team USA in Pontevedra, Spain for the World Triathlon Cross Tri World Championship. She placed 9th in her age group and was the 1st American woman in her age group.

Somewhere along her triathlon journey, she picked up deep love of cycling. Cycling encouraged her to see landscapes in a new way, learn new skills and to develop self reliance; now she often goes and does Type 2 rides just to see if she can do it. She’s got all the bikes: gravel, mountain, fat bike, time trial and road.

She is even known to combine her love of camping and cycling and go off on solo 24 hour overnight bikepacking trips in the mountains of Colorado. In addition to bikes, she teaches yoga, lifts weights, skis, SUPs and has recently purchased a campervan.

Erin is a former Montana park ranger with a degree in environmental engineering. She loves getting into technical details while putting her gear (and herself) through the paces. She shares her home in Colorado with her husband, Will, and her 3 cats (Zipper, Brewtus, and Simcoe).

Fall and winter 2025 will bring Erin to the “Adventure Side”, with many camping, vanlife, bikepacking, and mountain bike rides. Once the snow flies, she can be find resort skiing, fat biking, and triathlon training (inside and outside).

In 2026 Erin took the National Championship in her Age Group for the USA Triathlon Cross Tri. She’s also racing the a National Championship Road Sprint and Olympic Distance race in Milwaukee and a few other off road triathlons and bike races. In 2027, she will represent Team USA at the World Championship Cross Triathlon in Edmonton, Canada. She’ll also save lots of room for adventure time with her friends and husband.

When not adventuring, she can be found on a sunny patio somewhere, drinking beers with her husband.
