Skirt Off.

We've seen the pencil skirts on Roland Mouret S/S 12, Jonathan Saunders collection and Carine Roitfeld herself. Are you falling for the pencil skirt?


Here's a look at the best on the high street...

This Dogtooth Panel Pencil Skirt is just £30 from Topshop. Slimming and Stylish.

Not keen on panels? This one will be perfect for you:

 River Island at £20.00.

Not sure if you're ready for this trend? This low price might do the trick.. £9.99

From New Look.

This Topshop Navy Blue Spotted Pencil Skirt is a dream at £26.00.

My personal favourite from Zara at £25.99.

The pencil skirt is very versatile; yes it does go with the obvious shirt however you can be experimental with layering, a chunky knit cardigan or cashmere jumper. A band tee or sheer blouse.

Tights or Bare Legs?

 Pretty Polly and HOH have some great tights to play around with.

A nod to the trend with another Zara beauty:

A gorgeous alternative for movement and style at £39.99.

Note To Self: Do NOT forget heels!!

High Street Slump

Seeing as we're spending 33% less on clothes and shoes it's no surprise the High Street is suffering with a decline of customers.

Jane Norman and New Look are at the top of the stores in jeopardy. With certain ranges being to expensive over priced clothes.
