Do not fear the short skirt! I saw this and thought, "Wow, she's so leggy and lovely!" The matching tops and shoes are super cute too - I'm big on matching. :D&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sporty-pencil#post-1022343 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 00:24:13 +0000 pil 1022343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Diana, I love this!

Your lovely legs are your best accessory in this fun look. So don't regret a shorter skirt at all. Fresh fall color complements. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sporty-pencil#post-1022164 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 21:01:40 +0000 annagybe 1022164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I totally love #2. It reminds me of a tamed down version that Susie Bubble would wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sporty-pencil#post-1022148 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 20:33:51 +0000 kellygirl 1022148@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chic and sporty, Diana!

Skirt length looks fine to me too. You have good legs and look great with some knee showing. Cons are fab too. You do sporty and silky well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sporty-pencil#post-1021953 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 16:37:13 +0000 Mona 1021953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL! sporty and silky! The skirt length looks fine and the bomber and cons go well together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sporty-pencil#post-1021948 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 16:33:06 +0000 Diana 1021948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In all the excitement over the VC tube skirt, I totally forgot that I actually own another knit pencil skirt.&nbsp; This one is short and a quite casual style - it has a drawstring waist and is made of a light sweatshirt-type material.&nbsp; Since it's a more sporty fabrication, I decided to go with a sporty theme and wore it with my Cons and bomber jacket.&nbsp; The modified henley neckline on my blouse is a little bit sporty too.&nbsp; Because we are talking about me, the most unsporty of people, here, my blouse is silk and my bomber is silky.&nbsp; ;)</p> <p>So, what do you think?&nbsp; Did I pull off the sporty pencil skirt look or is "sporty black pencil" an oxymoron?&nbsp; And what about the length?&nbsp; I am actually wearing the skirt pretty low on my hips here to get some extra length.&nbsp; After wearing my midi yesterday it feels very short!&nbsp; But it is less tapered than the midi so I think the shorter length is OK... I am feeling a little paranoid about skirt length today because school has started back up in Boston and I have seen a lot of high school and college girls wearing <i>extremely</i> short and tight tube skirts in the last week!</p> <p>Anthro blouse, Tulle skirt, Converse Hi-Ness sneakers, Hinge bomber. </p>
