(ZARA trench coat / Old Navy sweater (get it here) / H&M skirt, necklace, shoes / Vintage clutch)
Pairing a casual sweater with a classic pencil skirt might not sound like a brand-new idea, but it was foreign to me until I put on this outfit and said to myself "Hey, this actually works!" But I have a love-hate relationship with this skirt. I don't understand how women can survive wearing pencil skirts to work. My skirt isn't even that tight but it's like wearing a giant squeezer. 8+ hours I spent wearing this skirt cost me at least 10 trips to the washroom. I don't even visit the washroom that often when I'm having a stomach flu. Anyway...

At least you looked great going to the washroom. Love the outfit!!!
Haha... Yeah somehow pencil skirts are not that comfy for me too!
You look lovely!
I love wearing skirts, and the pencil cut is my favorite. Although the high-waisted ones flatter my body shape than those that sit at or near my hip (I have a long torso), they are less comfortable, especially when I have plans to go out for a big meal. You might want to try one that sits at the hip or lower hip...if you have a short torso.
love the wind-blown hair
and of course the outfit :)
You can never go wrong with a trench coat! I really need to get one, haha! Great clutch too!
Have a great weekend!

All of my pencil skirts are pretty loose, so I don't have that problem, but I can see where that might be an issue! At least it looks great :)
lovee the look amazing ♥

Love everything in this outfit but LOVE your necklace!!!!!You look so CHIC with the trench!
pencil skirts are always a good idea in my book.... they could make a potato sack look glamorous.

Great classic look :) and YES is that Old Navy sweater not the best?
Love the chunky sweater! I totally agree with you on the pencil skirt, I usually wear it on shortened work days! Enter my giveaway!

Love that the clutch and jacket match so well! I don't even own a pencil skirt, LOL. I have a cotton one from American Apparel, but I definitely wouldn't feel comfortable wearing that to work. I've never even worn a skirt or dress to work before, now that I think about it!

LOVE your Zara trench coat! And I agree with you on pencil skirts, they're so awkward to walk in. It's like your legs are tied together and you have to waddle like a penguin. very uncomfortable. But they're so slimming!
wow i just noticed that you have 1085 followers (including me) wow, congrats girl you deserve it.
love your style
this trench coat is one of the most versatile, classy, must have items for me, one that never goes out of fashion...
and love the slight difference of shades between the beige coat and grey top, they are so similar but yet different, a nice color combination this is
You look amazing Kristy! I totally understand though, I love the look of pencil skirts, I always go to the washroom too :)
