Not So Serious

TJ Maxx skirt, unknown top, Target heels, F21 jewelry...except for Francesca's
earrings, Tobi sunglasses

Usually when one wears a pencil skirt the look says polished, classy, professional, etc. Pairing a pencil skirt with a fun top helps to tone down the serious vibe. I found a few options here, here, and here if you feel like mixing silly prints with serious skirts.



Have a great day!

    You gotta play it down sometimes. I feel like pencil skirts are always stuffy and professional, and so what if sometimes I want to wear a pencil skirt for casual attire? This is great! Love it!

    Love your sense of style - feminine and chic. I'm always trying to wear skirts but end up in jeans. Seriously, why? So unfair lol

    Have a great one honey!
