I have a love/hate relationship with pencil skirts. I hate the restriction but the curves, the below the knee length, the high waist. You know what I mean. The change makes them worth saying f*@k it to get out of shorts and old denim sometimes.
Kids leather jacket: Trash & Vaudeville. Try All Saints or Asos. Skirt: Zara (clearance). Try NastyGal or Asos. Shoes: Steve Madden. Bralette: Urban Outfitters. Try this and this from Topshop. Bag: Chanel. Try Rebecca Minkoff. Wishbone necklace: Jennifer Zeuner. Crucifix necklace: Gift from Mum
I wore this pencil skirt with an old crop summer bra top in denim blue and my old jacket from the children’s section of Trash & Vaudeville.
If you are after a cropped leather jacket, check out kids jackets. They are perfectly made, a quarter of the price and your limbs will break in that bad boy (excuse the pun) in no time. I wore this one around the house until it broke in. Get past the initial stiffness and it’s worth it.
ps. If you watched Mad Men, Joan rocks a pencil skirt like no one’s business.
