I love the idea of my taupe jacket with the leopard shirt and the skirt, Eliza, and I'm definitely going to try that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything/page/2#post-1018293 Sat, 31 Aug 2013 01:48:56 +0000 Eliza 1018293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The skirt is perfection on you. Love the cut and the length, as well as its ability to work across your wardrobe. I am finding the taupe leather jacket and suede booties particularly fresh, and wonder how the taupe jacket would be with the leopard blouse and skirt. You look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything/page/2#post-1017673 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 12:39:08 +0000 Kristin L 1017673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in the red pencil!

Many times it reflects something I think I know about you. Do you experience the same on your own threads? I love this, because it confirms that I'm knowing you better by now. </p> <p>Thanks, Rachy, for mentioning #1. I'm super excited about that outfit myself, and hope to wear it repeatedly during fall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything/page/2#post-1017161 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 19:29:42 +0000 rachylou 1017161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My fame is the super minimalism of #1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything/page/2#post-1017155 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 19:19:04 +0000 jurocha 1017155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great purchase! Seeing looks like these make me want to buy a bright pencil! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1017115 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 18:39:16 +0000 Anonymous 1017115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The red skirt is perfect on you. All the outfits are lovely especially with the boots. I also have a red pencil skirt that I adore and wear at least once per week. You have given me more ideas of how to wear mine. Thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1017110 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 18:32:42 +0000 ClaraT 1017110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ingunn, thank you for the inspiration. Just yesterday I got the Sloan pencil skirt in&nbsp;cobalt from Banana Republic. The fit is perfect, and the fabrication is thick with a bit of stretch. You have given me a lot of ideas about how to wear it. (Of course, now I'd like some booties, please.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1017068 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 17:22:29 +0000 Dawn 1017068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks fabulous, Ingunn. From what I have seen, I think I love your style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1017010 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 16:09:22 +0000 Day Vies 1017010@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like someone had fun styling a red skirt. I love them all. I was about to start wishing for a red skirt of my own then I remembered that I finally got my red skirt altered so it fits perfectly now. Inspiration is afoot! </p> <p>Can you just send me your new black booties? They are adorable with this skirt. I'm sure we're not the same shoe size and I know you've not had much chance to enjoy them yet but I just love that style of boot (I'll send them back when I finally find a pair of my own -- I promise!) </p> <p>BTW -- Ingunn Hoochie Mama from you would almost certainly be a signal of Halloween or April Fool's day. You're my modern classic inspiration muse. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1017008 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 16:04:44 +0000 catgirl 1017008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I saw your pins with red skirts, and now&nbsp;I know why!&nbsp; This fits seamlessly into your closet - it's its own capsule. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1016997 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 16:00:48 +0000 Ingunn 1016997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for all your very kind comments. A red skirt will from now on always be an essential in my wardrobe. Now I'm wondering when I will be able to add a similar one in black, because the one I have is very short and a bit too tight for my taste. And a cobalt, or mustard - a girl can dream, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1016903 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 14:36:21 +0000 MsMaven 1016903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the way you have made this simple skirt work from casual to lady-like dressy. &nbsp;Wonderful &nbsp;addition.</p> <p>Red and leopard are a wonderful combination. &nbsp;The way you wear it with a jacket is great and definitely makes a lively yet chic&nbsp;combination. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1016898 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 14:31:20 +0000 Angie 1016898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Red is a neutral. In my book. So is animal print.</p> <p>You are very inspiring, Ingunn. And wear a red pencil skirt like no other. Killer looks on you from start to finish. </p> <p>(I am humbled to have inspired one of your outfits). </p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1016863 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 13:59:46 +0000 Kim 1016863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The reason I think the leopard and red are not hoochie mama here are the classic cuts.&nbsp; Button down and pencil skirt.&nbsp; Very conservative outfit.&nbsp; Add the unexpected in red and leopard and you have a fab modern classic outfit!&nbsp; Now if the same skirt was a stretchy mini and the leopard shirt was a shiny tube top, well...We'd have hoochie mama for sure! LOL</p> <p>I love your skirt, it's amazing with your wardrobe!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1016859 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 13:58:01 +0000 Pawprints 1016859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Echo chamber here. You and all of your wardrobe pieces shown here look fantastic in your red skirt. </p> <p>If red and leopard feel a little forward for Oslow, you'll be Chic Mama. That kind of head turning, not the hoochie mama kind!</p> <p>I must have been feeling the same disturbance in the force in my wardrobe, because I found myself longing for the red wool pencil skirt I wore to death about 20 years (no!) ago. I decided I just had to have that skirt again. </p> <p>I also found mine on eBay, a luscious cashmere blend that is a closet elevator. I picked it up from alterations yesterday and am looking forward to wearing it in November--the soonest it will be cool enough for a lined substantial wool skirt. I only hope it's as flexible and workhorse-like in my closet as it is in yours. Your pics are inspiring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1016844 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 13:44:45 +0000 Von 1016844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great addition!

And red with leopard? One of my favorite combinations EVER! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1016774 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 13:01:14 +0000 pastrygirl 1016774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another great piece!! I might have to add this to my list... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1016772 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 12:59:13 +0000 Ingunn 1016772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Phew, I'm relieved! Leopard + red is beautiful, but also quite eye-catching. We'll see if I have the courage to wear it outside my house in this sea of neutrals that Oslo is.</p> <p>Suz, that is a very interesting and probably quite accurate theory! I think red also works well with my complexion, and it complements my green eyes :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1016746 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 12:28:53 +0000 Suz 1016746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Leopard with red is not hoochie-mama. Not when both pieces are so classic and ladylike. Leopard with red is classic -- and looks fab here!&nbsp;</p> <p>Love the skirt on you in all incarnations, but my favourites are 1/2, all the leopard, and <b>ESPECIALLY </b>with denim, stripes and plaid. I want to copy that one, except I don't have a red skirt. Mine is tough to find because it needs to be a cranberry red.&nbsp;</p> <p>I think red works so brilliantly for you as a neutral in part because it expresses the playful side of your personality, in part because it helps "liven" your wardrobe of mostly classic basics, and in part because it almost bookends your hair. I realize your hair is not really red, and appears more reddish in photos taken in indoor light. But the colour <b>value</b> is quite similar to the red -- in other words, if we were to drain the photo of colour, the red and your hair might look pretty much the same depth of grey. So the effect is bookending. And yay for cohesion!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-red-pencil-skirt-goes-with-everything#post-1016740 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 12:21:20 +0000 christina 1016740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a pair of red pants and an orange pencil skirt. &nbsp;I am always surprised by how much goes with them! &nbsp;For my wardrobe, I feel that red is even easier to pair up than the orange. &nbsp;I worry that my&nbsp;orange skirt&nbsp;goes Halloween very quickly when I pair with black and I have a lot of black!&nbsp; </p>
