I don't know if this should be gear or home...

Do you use a crib skirt on your crib? Is it necessary? I think they are generally kind of silly looking, but I peaked under some of the ones on display in the crib section at BBB and I guess some cribs have hardware showing. We haven't set up the crib yet so I don't actually know what it will look like (obviously, it had a skirt and matching bumper on display in the store). Wondering if most people use them, or the stores just display them that way to get you to buy the whole bedding set, the way they have fluffy bumpers on every crib.

I also cannot believe how expensive some of them are! For so little fabric, you are charging $100 or more? What? The PBK ones that I like are still $60 and up.
