Just a quick little note:
Today as I was running between work, class and meetings with professors I realized something I had never thought of before.
My must-have item in my closet that I couldn't live without in any sort of professional (or fun!) manner is a well fitting black pencil skirt. I have half a dozen pencil skirts. Plaid, grey, herringbone, but my favorite favorite and definitely most worn is my black one.
I love how I can pair it with so many different tops and styles and I immediately feel like I have my little world together and I'm read to take on the world of everyone else! Something else I love about it is how it can really dress up a simple summer top and make it look wintery and classy. I have one that is a red and white plaid with a lace back and it looks so elegant with it!
I've also been known to dress it down a bit with flats and a cardigan on those comfy sorts of days or dress it up even further with some stiletto's and a fun top for nights out with my fella. In those cases the particular one that I have is great because the material is quite happy to shorten up and become a mini-skirt. Though with my legs, most skirts are happier as mini skirts!
Anyways, here is what I wore today.
(sorry for the terrible quality, my mirror hasn't been dusted in far too long!)
Red and white striped button up, black pencil skirt (from Maurices! love it!) and my trusty pair of black heels. More on those heels another day. They've been around for over five years!
