Monday Mingle: Pretty in Pencil Skirts

Monday, October 15, 2012

If you’ve been a reader of ours for more than a day, you’ve probably figured out that I’m a bit of a Target addict. Haha! Not only do I love Target’s designer collaborations, but their every day brands like Mossimo have some pretty fabulous pieces as well. I even wore a Mossimo pencil skirt to the Tampa Bay Fashion Week show that I attended recently.

 

day to night look

Outfit Details: Merona leopard print tiered top,  Jessica Simpson Waleo brown suede pumps (similar here), Mossimo ponte pencil skirt, Charlotte Russe chunky chain link bracelet

I love that skirt so much that I decided to style the plum/wine version for Monday Mingle this week. I think the hue is a perfect partner for an animal print blouse! Finished off with suede platforms and a chain link bracelet, this look could take you from work to out on the town without missing a beat!

Don’t forget to join us, Momtrends and Glamamom for Monday Mingle by linking up your style posts! You can find the linky over at Glamamom’s site this week!

Great look! Love the color combo of the skirt and the leopard.

And of course I love that it’s from Target. I’m all for inexpensive chic!

Kristin, you have always looked good in wine and a good pencil skirt is classic! I’m writing about wine colored picked for fall too – great minds thinking alike…

It seriously doesn’t matter the body shape, pencils skirts flatter all women. I like the e-card that reads “I went to target but couldn’t find anything I wanted…said nobody ever.”

I love a good pencil skirt but I think they’re in the past for me with my new mom shape.
