Checkered pencil skirt in 5 styles - fall fashion

plaid pencil skirt

When I do not have time to experiment in my wardrobe, I like to reach for proven solutions - today I will show you my autumn stylizations in checkered skirts.

 

A pencil skirt is a classic business outfit. In order not to be too boring, but still elegant, I chose plaid skirts, which, apart from the color, differ basically - the cut.

 

Vintage skirt

Found out in lumpex several years ago pencil skirt with high waisted in a gray checkered pattern - I wonder how old she may be!

 

It came to my wardrobe again from a box full of clothes that were waiting for me in the attic, signed "for better times", i.e. in my case - the thinner ones. I was hoping that I would use its perfect cut someday, and who knows, maybe I will sew another similar pencil skirt with a lining and perfect cut on its basis at the dressmaker.

 

Ta pencil skirt with high waisted beautifully highlights the waist, then expands - forgiving the imperfections of our figure below. It's a tulip-like cut, thanks to which it gives us freedom all day long - I will never think about imprinting underwear, a shirt or a protruding belly in it, because the looser cut under the waist leaves them invisible to the eye.

 

I put together a checkered pencil skirt with gray heels from full-grain leather and white, classic, high-quality fitted shirt with covered buttons. It's a set in which I always feel professional: perfect for business occasions where I don't know the other party, and it promises to be quite official. although every day I prefer a slightly looser outfit to work, I like this set just as much.

 

A large bag allows me to take a laptop, notebook, and even food in a box or coffee in a thermal mug, a wool coat it allows me to wrap myself in the warmth in colder days. Soon I will complement it with a beautiful, warm scarf and gloves.

This cut is ruthless for all curves, so it's not my favorite. I paid attention to her for ... the pink color, I absolutely wanted to match something tone in tone with my pink shirt. However, I also love it for the knee length and the fact that despite the color it still has a business character. Because I don't have to write about the fact that she is very feminine. I choose fleshy high heels and a large gray handbag in which I carry my laptop for meetings.

If you are wondering if a checkered skirt is an idea for you, I have prepared 3 sets based on the checkered pencil skirt, perfectly matching the business image of autumn. I was based on shopping in the store Peek & Cloppenburg, which recently is also available in an online version, and which I like for the incredible ease of finding clothes for any occasion due to the fact that each category of clothing is divided according to the occasion.

 

For example:

 

skirts are divided into: knee-length skirts, denim skirts, maxi skirts, midi skirts, mini skirts, pencil skirts, pleated skirts,

 

dresses are divided into: business dresses, casual dresses, knitted dresses, party dresses, cocktail dresses, maxi dresses, strapped dresses, pencil dresses, evening dresses, ball gowns and wedding dresses.

 

When you add a color selection or price range to it, shopping becomes easy - it's hard to persuade me to go shopping in a mall.

 

 

1 styling

autumn winter fashion 2018 - beige caramel autumn coat, pink women's shirt with covered buttons, checkered pencil skirt, beige suede pumps, beige shoper bag

I combined the beige checked skirt with a pink shirt, which refers to one of the colors on the skirt and thus complements it perfectly. To this I added beige and gray velor heels with a low 7 cm heel and a beige handbag - together they create a light and pleasant, but very business look, complemented by a noble woolen coat with an admixture of polyamide and cashmere. Just right if I want to express my feminine, individual style, but still showing that I stick to the rules and that I care.

 

2 styling

fall fashion - gray buttoned coat, checkered pencil skirt vichy, black pumps, high heels, gray handbag

Gray purse | White women's shirt with covered buttons | Vichy checkered skirt | Black pumps | 100% wool coat

A vichy checkered skirt in my favorite length at the knee or gently over the knee, juxtaposed with a white shirt with covered buttons, complemented with black high heels, broken against the background of a darker wool coat light gray purse, in which I would fit such business necessities as a calendar or planner. Classically, but with style.

 

3 styling

fall fashion - brown handbag, women's blue shirt with covered buttons, brown wool camel winter coat with covered buttons, beige high heels, navy blue plaid skirt

Blue shirt with covered buttons | Navy plaid skirt | Camel wool coat with cashmere | Beige stilettos | Burgundy purse

As a base, I chose a navy blue pencil skirt on a petticoat, which despite the fact that it is in a cold color, the pattern of a large check makes it very warm. I complemented it with a blue shirt with covered buttons and warmed up with beige shoes and a brown handbag, which will fit perfectly with a simple camel coat - this one is 70% wool, with an admixture of polyamide and cashmere, and has an extremely timeless character, and will warm me even then, when I forget my scarf.

 

What is the right length of coat?

When choosing a coat for every styling - everyday, evening or business, I remember that it should not be shorter than a dress or skirt by more than 2 centimeters. This is why I usually buy knee-length coats so they go well with all my dresses and skirts, except of course the ground-length evening dress that I still dream of.

    For such an elegant styling, you need to choose elegant jewelry. I would bet on small earrings and a subtle bracelet. Such stylizations are timeless.

    Beautiful, feminine and classy stylizations. The high-waisted skirt is a classic and highlights your figure amazingly.

    Very nice suggestions, thanks! I'm just collecting autumn inspirations for cool urban and feminine stylizations 🙂 I found similar clothes and in my opinion retro-feminine in MoreMoi, a nice curiosity and I'm glad I discovered it, these skirts with a zip are beautiful 🙂

    I also like pencil skirts. Shoes with a pointed toe extend the leg

    I am the owner of several pencil skirts. Two of them are plaid. I put them on often to work. They are more comfortable for me than fabric pants at the edge (at work I have a dress code, so I leave jeans only for informal meetings). In fact, the only drawback to this skirt is the fact that on average it suits me low-heeled shoes. My legs then look short and the skirt completely loses charm. I usually choose pumps with a higher or at least medium heels. The legs look longer.

    Oh, how beautiful all of them! You still have one in black and white checkered or houndstooth, you showed it in a post about pregnancy fashion: https://agnieszkakudela.pl/moda-ciazowa-w-pracy/ - I don't know if it's a check or houndstooth, because the photo plays tricks on my eyes 😀 It's also great and high waisted!
    I have to make myself such an elegant check 🙂
