I loved wearing this, I think I can now invite skirts back into my life. :-)</p> <p>Lina, I ordered it from Free People -- not where I expected to find a leather jacket, but they have some very cool ones.

You look so wonderful I am going to demand you do not reinstate your moratorium on skirts (if so you'll have to answer to me - and I can be scary(!)). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-classic-pencil-skirt-toughened-up/page/2#post-543999 Sat, 18 Feb 2012 06:54:37 +0000 RandomThoughts (Andrea) 543999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&lt;3 &lt;3 &lt;3 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-classic-pencil-skirt-toughened-up/page/2#post-543984 Sat, 18 Feb 2012 06:01:07 +0000 AJ 543984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a FABULOUS outfit!! </p> <p>You are so right to keep the rest of the outfit subtle when you wear that beautiful jacket. </p> <p>I'm very intrigued by the convertible cowl collar on the grey sweater. Next time you wear it, could you show us what it looks like draped over your shoulder?</p> <p>Last time I was at Nordies, I tried a lilac Halogen skirt that was on sale. It didn't look right on me, but I just assumed it was because all pencil skirts look frumpy on me. Maybe I need to look at a petite size too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-classic-pencil-skirt-toughened-up/page/2#post-543961 Sat, 18 Feb 2012 04:45:40 +0000 Diana 543961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG, Janet, this is such a fantastic outfit! I LOVE that jacket.</p> <p>You're making me want to revisit the whole Halogen skirt thing ( I never got it to fit me right, but I'm thinking I need to try a petite). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-classic-pencil-skirt-toughened-up/page/2#post-543935 Sat, 18 Feb 2012 03:55:35 +0000 Anonymous 543935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nicely done, let the jacket do all the talking.

You look stunning. I would wear this in a heartbeat!! </p> <p>And yes, skirts that FIT are your friend. It's a weird thing about weight loss...you really don't realize how badly your clothes fit until...well...until you've tried ones that DO fit. You are looking so gorgeous these days, it's almost illegal! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-classic-pencil-skirt-toughened-up#post-543676 Fri, 17 Feb 2012 22:39:45 +0000 kellygirl 543676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wowza and hubba hubba! This is a fab skirt outfit. It's the kind of skirt outfit that makes me want a Halogen seamed skirt : ) You look so fab with the RATE jacket and the big cowl too. Perfection! </p>
