Lumberjackin' it up.

Try as I might, I just can't seem to resist a good mini pencil skirt. 
For over a year now, I've tried to deny my teenage-esque taste for the elastic little wonders, but to no avail. 
There's just something too irresistibly simple about a sheath of spandex, am I right?

No zipper, no hooks, no obnoxiously uncomfortable after-lunch stomach crease caused by a too-tight waistline.

Nope. 

Just a good ol' stretchy stunner fit for pregnancy but meant for me. 
Because you should see me wiggle around in my office chair. The stationary life is killing me, so I need all the sartorial elasticity I can get. 

I'm like a 2-year-old child stuck in a 22-year old woman's body. 
Believe me yet?

Anyhow. My solution to this not so sophisticated propensity is to man-i-fy it up with some frumpy, lumberjack-esque attire. 

Enter the vintage Guess denim button up. 
skirt: H&M, shirt: vintage Guess, boots: hand me downs

Success?
I think so. 


Cheers.

  1. The skirt looks super lovely the way you styled it with the shirt. I like pencil skirts, but I think they require high heels, and I'm not very fond of them :D too lazy for heels :D

  3. I really do adore these elasticised mini pencil skirts to the extent that I have a whole section of my wardrobe dedicated to them. It's actually appalling, but such an easy staple to return to when one has 'absolutely nothing to wear' ... I love the ruche detailing on your skirt and my golly, your vertiginous legs look so amazing in them!
