Shorts, Skirts & Playsuits
From playground tag to backyard BBQs, our girls shorts and skirts are made for movement, mess, and a little everyday magic. In sizes 2–10, Cotton On Kids brings the fun with comfy fabrics, easy fits, and prints that spark big imaginations. Think cartwheel-approved shorts, twirl-happy skirts, and skorts with secret superpowers—like pockets for treasures and waistbands that grow with growth spurts. You handle the snacks; we’ve got the outfit covered.
Play-Ready Shorts and Twirl-Ready Skirts
If it passes the hop, skip, jump test, it’s in the collection. Our girls shorts and skirts are soft on skin, tough on play, and made for the real-life rhythm of school days and weekend adventures. For denim days, our denim shorts bring the classic cool with just-right stretch and gentle, kid-comfy finishes. Whether your little one is in size 2 or size 10, easy pull-on waists and adjustable details help you get out the door faster—no wrestle required. Bike shorts are the MVP under dresses, for PE, or paired with a favorite oversized tee. They’re smooth, stretchy, and ready for every somersault at recess.
Skirts bring the twirl factor, from skater silhouettes that swish to easy denim skirts that go with everything. And for kiddos who want to climb, swing, and still feel dressed up, skorts offer the best of both worlds—built-in coverage with all the spin of a skirt. Prints play a big role here: rainbows, butterflies, hearts, checks, stars, and fruit that look right at home from coast to coast. Every style is designed with comfort first and play always, so kiddos feel free to be the hero of every backyard quest.
Because parents deserve a win too, the fabrics are simple to care for and made to mix-and-match. Wash, wear, repeat is the idea, across all sizes 2–10. Longer lengths and comfy rises keep school dress codes happy, while soft elastic waistbands make independent dressing a proud-kid moment. Pockets? Of course—because every explorer needs a spot for lucky rocks.
What tops go with girls skirts and shorts?
Short answer: whatever makes them grin. Long answer: there are so many fun pairings for sizes 2–10. Graphic tees turn denim shorts into an instant everyday uniform—add high-tops and she’s out the door. A fitted rib tank tucked into a skater skirt keeps the silhouette neat for all that twirling, while a lightweight hoodie or crew neck adds cozy for cooler hallways and chilly theater AC. For bike shorts, try an oversized tee or sweatshirt for that easy, sporty look kids love; it’s playground-ready and couch-fort approved.
When temps drop, swap in long-sleeve tees or layer a cardigan over a tee-and-skirt combo. A denim jacket with a denim skirt or denim shorts makes a cute mini-me moment without feeling “too much.” Heading to the splash pad? Pull a tee over a swim top and pair with pull-on shorts for quick-dry fun. Prints-on-prints are welcome here—let your kiddo be the stylist. If she wants polka dots with daisies, we say go for it. The rule of thumb is comfort first: soft tees, breathable layers, and pieces that pass the wiggle test. If she can jump, bend, and beam in it, you nailed it.
What shorts are trending for girls this season?
This season’s girls shorts lineup is all about comfort-meets-cool, and every trend comes in sizes 2–10 so sisters, cousins, and besties can match or mix as they please. Denim shorts are back with fresh details—think soft, worn-in washes, paperbag waists that feel like a gentle hug, and raw hems for that lived-in look. Bike shorts stay on the podium with bold prints, color pops, and classic blacks that layer under everything from oversized tees to swingy dresses. Pull-on shorts in terry or jersey keep it cozy for camp days and lazy Sundays, while sporty dolphin-hem styles bring a retro sprint to the playground.
Skorts are having their moment, giving kids cartwheel confidence without giving up the twirl. Tennis-inspired pleats and swingy skaters feel dressed-up enough for birthday parties but still playground-approved. Colors land right on trend: bright citrus, candy pastels, happy neons, and go-with-everything neutrals. Prints run the full happy parade—rainbows, flowers, butterflies, doodles, and checks—so every day can look a little different without needing a whole new closet.
The best part? These trends were built with real life in mind. Waistbands that don’t pinch, fabrics that hold up to washing on repeat, and silhouettes that let kids move like kids. Whether she’s a size 2 discovering the monkey bars or a size 10 racing the last lap at recess, her shorts should keep up without a fuss. That’s the Cotton On Kids promise: playful pieces that make getting dressed feel like the easy win of the morning.
From denim shorts to bike shorts, skirts to skorts, you’ll find the everyday heroes right here—made for movement, mess, and magic in sizes 2–10. Let her choose the adventure, and we’ll dress the part.
