The pencil skirt is considered to be a “representative” of business and office style, since strict images are the most successful with it. However, modern skirts of this type are so diverse that a girl can easily choose for herself a dress for a romantic date, an option to meet with her friends, and even a luxurious ensemble for a celebration. At the same time, it is important to choose a suitable top and complement the image with the appropriate accessories.

Who is suitable?

Pencil skirt is advised to include a woman of any age and with any figure in the wardrobe.

But, if slender girls with a proportional figure can afford not to worry either about the colors or in relation to the appropriate length, then for the flaws of the silhouette, the choice of a successful model should be considered more carefully:

  • Pretty women with full hips should pick up dark skirts without too much decoration.
  • If a girl with a curvy shape wants a skirt of this style with a print, it is better to stop the choice in a small drawing.
  • In case of completeness, knitwear models that will fit the silhouette are not recommended.
  • To add height, be sure to wear high heels shoes with a pencil skirt.

How to create an image in the right style?

To create an image of a business woman, the pencil skirt of a classic color is complemented with a modest blouse or shirt of a male cut. Also, it is not uncommon that a turtleneck and a jacket or a cardigan are worn to such an office skirt.

Romantic style prescribes to combine a pencil skirt with a delicate blouse, for example, trimmed with lace. However, the laces can be on the skirt itself, and in this case the upper part is selected to be simple and concise. In addition, a high-waisted skirt model is appropriate for this style.

If using a pencil skirt you want to make a retro image, the main emphasis is shifted to the original blouse, and the skirt itself is chosen to be discreet, for example, black or gray. A spectacular outfit in the style of the 20-30s can be created from a thin striped skirt and a lace blouse.
