I’ve always thought of pencil skirts as a strictly office-appropriate piece of attire, but after stumbling upon this faux leather burgundy number at Ever New recently I had a complete change of heart. I think it can be easy to assume that pencil skirts must only pair with button-down blouses and sky-high stilettos, but I’ve found the key to wearing them outside the office is to dress them down in a fun way. This sweater, that I found at Old Navy, was the ideal companion to this pencil skirt as it’s casual and oh so playful. I also swapped out the stilettos for a low, block heel and added a fun pair of glasses to keep the look from feeling too “office inspired”. Though, I would totally rock this look if I worked in an office environment.
