For years I thought that pencil skirt were too mature or too formal to suit my style. Turns out, they’re really the more work appropriate big sister of the mini skirt! (Scroll through an inspiration post here.) With the right dressing formula, wearing a pencil skirt can be just as fun. The way I see it, styling a pencil skirt is incredibly easy. For tops I always go for either a sweat shirt, a cami top with super thin straps or a rock ‘n roll t-shirt . This way the top is either a bit casual, a bit chic or edgy – but never too formal.
I always try to find skirts that go in a color or a print that’s a bit playful, rather than one that’s part of a work suit. As far as shoes go, strappy sandals or pointed courts work best for me. I would never this kind of skirt with ankle boots, because there’s already so much leg covered ;) To make this look a bit more casual and less office-like, I usually carry a smaller bag like my tiny baby Mulberry bag or Chanel.
By applying this super easy formula, dressing takes a matter of minutes! You look professional, streamlined, feminine and pretty comfortable at the same time. It’s so much fun to see that a garment that I never considered to be my style is taking over my skirt department! Have you ever had the same happen?

Hele mooie rok is het! Je kunt ze inderdaad heel makkelijk combineren :) Staat super met zo’n shirt! Ik heb er laatst ook een aangeschaft. Je draagt ze ook sneller dan een kort rokje met blote benen
Past inderdaad op deze manier helemaal bij je! Hele mooie is het ook zeg!
You look beautiful Yara! I don’t wear pencil skirts very often but I do love them. They look especially awesome with that band tee! xxx

You are a master of turning any piece into a casual piece and I had the same problem with prints, I was practically afraid of them especially for work but now we are cool. lol

Ik draag ze nu niet meer (tegenwoordig heb ik graag iets meer bewegingsvrijheid), maar enkele jaren geleden droeg ik ze ook gewoon met toffe shirtjes of zelfs een geruit hemd. Ik blijf fan van die look!
Fietsen is een ander verhaal ja, haha!
you look amazing!

Ik heb er de laatste tijd ook steeds meer aangeschaft inderdaad! Eerst kocht ik ze puur voor mijn werk, maar draag ze nu ook vaker gewoon overdag :)
Zelfs ik ben om! Heb er meerdere aangeschaft, en ben ook nu al fan van de leren variant <3
