Three Ways to Wear It: Midi Pencil Skirt

The midi-length skirt can be a little challenging, especially in a form-hugging shape. Here I styled three different looks with the same skirt--hope you like it!

 

It can be helpful to break up the length and soften the severity of the pencil skirt with a feminine flouncy long-length blouse. A boxy jacket  thrown over the shoulders and long beads keep the top from overwhelming the rest of the outfit. Worn with open-toe Givenchy zip-up booties.

A body-conscious skirt and a cozy sweater is a classic winner. The Balenciaga Glove sandals keep it modern and just a little bit tough. You can throw a fur stole on and it is a perfect evening look.

A puffer jacket and slashed-sleeve sweatshirt tone down the glamour of the super-femme shape. An easy to throw on day-time look. The Ann Demeulemeester lace-up sandals give the skirt the height it needs. I add this Japanese silk kimono belt (worn as a scarf) to so many looks.
