This heat has everyone feeling all types of ways. For me it’s another tank top work day and yes you guessed it, another pencil skirt, but in this case the same red one worn a little differently. I chose to tuck in my top to emphasize my waist in a very polished way. My tank was too long for this idea and it showed more than I wanted to in the photos! You live and you learn! The best way to use the tucked in method with this type of skirt is to wear a bodysuit. Bodysuits give you smooth barely there lines. I like the combination of baby blue and bright red, but that’s all the colorblocking allowed. Pair your blues and reds with nude ankle strap heels for a sleek look. Feel free to add a fierce accessory: a statement necklace, a cuff or a cocktail ring with this look. Not all three!
How do you rock your pencil skirt? Are you feeling the ankle strap sandals this summer?
