Michelle's denim pencil skirt

Maya

In Michelle's words:

Thanks to the lovely marianna, I now have a denim pencil skirt! It's very stretchy and comfortable, but I need to know if it looks ok before I trot it out. If you think I need to lose a few more pounds before I can get away with it, please just be blunt and say so.

1. With a black and white pre-ylf top. Can I pull off this length? I'd style this with textured hose, my long boots and a red and silver statement necklace, i'm thinking:

2. Back view:

3. With a white button-down and my tweed jacket. Do the shoes work in this combo too?

Thanks for your feedback, ladies... and thanks to Marianna for the skirt and Maya for posting the pics!

I think you should wear it RIGHT NOW and wear it proudly and confidently! I knew it would look stupendous on you.

I love it with the striped top. The neckline is beautiful on you. I might just scrunch it up a bit instead of pulling it down all the way.

The white shirt looks a touch long, but the tweed jacket is very elegant and the shoes look great. So does Reva

Yay! I am so happy it fits! It looks soooooo good, way better than on me! I don't have the beautiful feminine curves it deserves! I'm commenting from my phone and will come back to comment more later!

The skirt fits perfectly. I think both the tops are a tad long but I'll defer to the experts on this one.

Michelle, I absolutely love the skirt! Seriously, get as much wear out of the skirt now (since you are in the process of losing weight and it may eventually be too big for you) as you can.

I like the tops I wear with pencil skirts to be a little bit shorter than the striped top, but like Maya mentioned, the striped one might work if it is scrunched up by just an inch or so.

I think the length of the skirt works with your flats, but love the idea of textured hose and tall boots. I love to wear pencil skirts that way myself!

I am sooo happy that this worked out so well. The skirt looks so lovely on you!

The wrap top is amazing! So chic! I'm stealing it! To my eye the white shirt looks good too!

When will we see the David Kahns on you? I'm waiting patiently!

(Thank you, Maya. You’re a honey to help out our wonderful Michelle).

Michelle! That denim skirt is KILLER. Good grief. As Maya says: wear it right now and no more doubts. LOVE the top and your short do too. The first outfit with the retro jacket is PERFECT. Add your pearls and you’re fit to see the Queen. You look devastatingly elegant :0). Btw, I can see your weight loss. Looking fab!

Marianna, great job passing this skirt onto Michelle. Now you both have ideal denim skirts individually suited to your fabulous styles.

Hi Reva! Gertrude, are you thrilled to be reunited with Mummy?

Well thank you ladies!! You've convinced me; I'm sitting at the office wearing the skirt, the black and white top, diamond-patterned black hose, my black tall boots and a red necklace.

Angie, I'm glad you can see signs of my weight loss. I'm curious; where is it most visible? I know where I'm starting to feel differences, but I've always wondered if the visual and tactile experiences were different for something like this.

You look terrific Michelle! I want to steal that stripe wrap top from you. Please, pretty please, post more outfits! Kari is right, get as much wear out of this now before you start melting away more pounds
