What can I wear with a pencil skirt?

A pencil-style skirt is considered a "representative" of business and office style, since it is the strict images that are most successful with it. However, modern skirts of this type are so diverse that a girl can easily choose for herself an outfit for a romantic date, and an option for meeting friends, and even a luxurious ensemble for a celebration. At the same time, it is important to choose the right top and complement the image with appropriate accessories.

A pencil skirt is advised to be included in a wardrobe for a woman of any age and with any figure.

But, if slender girls with a proportional figure can afford not to worry either about the colors or about the appropriate length, then in case of flaws in the silhouette, you should pay more attention to the choice of a successful model:

• Beauties with full hips should choose dark skirts without unnecessary decor.
• If a girl with a curvy shape wants a skirt of this style with a print, it is better to opt for a small drawing.
• When overweight, knitwear models that will fit the silhouette are not recommended.
• To add height, be sure to wear high heels with a pencil skirt.

To create the image of a business woman, a pencil skirt in a classic color is complemented with a modest blouse or a man-made shirt. Also, a turtleneck and a jacket or cardigan are often worn to such a skirt in the office.

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

If you want to make a retro look with a pencil skirt, 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 20s and 30s can be created from a pinstriped skirt and a lace blouse.

Lovers of a sporty style should prefer a knitted or denim skirt. T-shirts, T-shirts, turtlenecks are suitable for her, and if the weather is cool, then you can wear a jumper, cardigan or sweater.

The classic combination when creating an image with a pencil skirt will be black + white:

• A strict black pencil skirt, a white shirt with a stand-up collar, a jacket to match the skirt, black shoes and a small leather bag are a classic option for a business lady.
• A good choice would also be a white skirt, complemented by a dark top, a black leather belt, a business briefcase and black pumps, as well as an elongated jacket.
• For a black soft leather skirt, wear a white sleeveless top and black ankle boots. Match this ensemble with a small black shoulder bag or white clutch, as well as discreet jewelry.

Such combinations are no less interesting:

• A floral pencil skirt paired with a light blouse, small handbag, necklace and stiletto sandals is a bold casual option. A strict shirt also acts as a successful top for a floral skirt.
• A pencil-cut denim skirt can be worn with a stylish shirt and pumps for a nice office outfit. If you add a denim skirt with a cotton T-shirt or a bright top, a black shirt or leather jacket, as well as stylish sneakers, you get a successful ensemble in a sporty style.
• A shiny pencil skirt, silk top, necklace and hairpin are the best options for a gala evening. Wearing a lace skirt with a white top and sandals is a great outfit for a romantic date.
• A warm plaid skirt is very popular in autumn and winter. A cardigan, sweater or turtleneck and comfortable shoes are selected for her.

Such a spectacular skirt looks great with a black top, if you complement this combination with a gray checkered jacket and black pumps. A casual white pencil skirt goes well with a white top and trainers or sneakers.

A good choice for a day or evening event would be a white skirt, complemented by a gray top and steel-colored pumps. If you put on a white skirt with a white strict shirt and white sandals, you get an airy and elegant look. For a white denim skirt, you can choose a brown shirt and a brown leather strap.

A traditional addition to a skirt of this color is a light top. It can be a variety of blouses, tops, shirts and other wardrobe items in white and pastel colors. A popular option is the addition of a black skirt with a black top, as well as beige shoes and a light coat.

A black skirt with a striped top and a black leather jacket looks interesting. For a knitted black elongated pencil skirt, a simple white T-shirt would be a good choice. Also, a denim shirt of a light shade goes well with a black skirt.

Not every top will suit a pencil skirt of this color. A red top would be an unsuccessful option, but a red pencil skirt with a black, white or beige shirt and a red jacket is a perfectly acceptable combination. A red skirt with a brown blouse and a brown strap looks interesting.

Wearing a red pencil skirt with a beige top, match them with beige pumps. The union of a red skirt and a T-shirt with a print, as well as a combination of such a skirt with a vest, looks spectacular.

A skirt of this color is ideally combined with a white top, for example, with a turtleneck or a formal shirt. It is recommended to wear a gray knitted skirt with a gray or white sweater.

The navy blue skirt is a great replacement for the black model in a business wardrobe. Complementing it with a light blouse or shirt (white, beige, blue), you can get a harmonious outfit. Turquoise, yellow and coral will also be good colors for a blouse or shirt for a blue skirt.

For a blue denim pencil skirt, a white top is perfect, as well as a black top or striped version. If you want to create a monochromatic look, this skirt can be complemented by a light denim shirt.

A navy blue pencil skirt in combination with a brown top to match the tone of the skirt looks good.

A good choice for a green skirt is a black top and black pumps. An emerald-green skirt can be combined with a red T-shirt and black shoes. Also, a white top will be a good companion to a pencil skirt in green tones.

The combination of a green skirt and a striped top looks nice.

Skirts of a bright shade, for example, lemon, turquoise, fuchsia, look impressive on their own. Therefore, they are often complemented with top of classic tones (white, gray, beige), but they can also be combined with tops of another juicy shade, as well as play in contrast. The combination of a bright plain skirt with a striped top looks beautiful.

When choosing a pencil skirt for a party or some kind of celebration, they usually opt for a spectacular model made of elegant fabric and with interesting trimmings. In this case, bright accessories will be superfluous. One thing is enough, for example, an elegant bracelet or necklace to match the skirt.

A bag for the ensemble with a pencil skirt is selected depending on the overall image. A medium-length leather bag and a small clutch look good with such clothes. Business ladies can pick up an elegant briefcase, while athletic girls can pick up a pretty backpack.

An evening bow with a skirt of this type is rarely complete without stiletto shoes. Casual pencil skirt models can be worn with sandals, ankle boots, shoes and other heels. A flat sole is also suitable for such a skirt, but it is desirable that the girl has long slender legs.
