The Curvy Girl’s Guide To Styling a Pencil Skirt

The classic curve-hugging pencil skirt comes in a variety of different styles and lengths, making it suitable for everyone from Victoria Beckham to Kim Kardashian, and all you curvy girls out there too! If you’ve always feared wearing a pencil skirt, Shikha Kohli from Team Hauterfly is here to show you three cool ways to style the chic pencil skirt for three different occasions.

The brunch look

Heading for lunch or brunch with the girls? You want to look put together but not overdressed. Pair your pencil skirt with a bishop sleeve top to balance the fit. The exaggerated sleeve balances the fitted silhouette of the skirt, and can be accessorised with some dainty jewellery.

The sporty look

Contrary to the corporate image of the pencil skirt, it can also be worn for a sporty look. Team a high-waisted pencil skirt with a cropped sweatshirt or top. Add a backpack and sneakers to lend a sporty vibe to the look.

The party look

Take your pencil skirt from desk to drinks, with this simple styling tip. Wear it with a sequinned top of the same colour to turn it into a dress. Add PVC heels to elongate your legs, and throw in a jewel-toned bag to add some colour. Your go-to party earrings can top the look off!
