Pencil skirts have always been in fashion. They keep your outfit sleek, stylish, and pull your look together with a dash of no-nonsense sex appeal. There are many choices when it comes to choosing the right pencil skirt; high waist, low waist, above the knee, below the knee, solids, prints…the choices are many! Close (aka on the tighter side) fit are always popular with women since they enable elegant movement.

My go to Pencil Skirt is the classic black, below the knee much like this BCBG “Monica” pencil skirt. However and considering all of the bold colors we’ve seen in fashion mags this season, you can rock a scarlet red pencil skirt with a simple white blouse…just remember to balance the fitted nature of the skirt with a looser blouse or top. Or for any edgier look, rock a sequin pencil skirt (we all know how in sequins is right now).

However you decide to wear your pencil skirt, wear it with confidence and know you look haute.
