Woodgrain Pencil Skirt

Pencil skirts are my very very favorite piece of clothing. My figure was just made to wear them. If I could only wear one thing for the rest of my life, it would be this indestructible gray stretchy pencil skirt I got a million years ago. I’ve worn it pregnant, I’ve worn it at my thinnest and my biggest, I’ve worn it to the theater and to work. For years I’ve been meaning to use it to make a copy and spread the love around.

The time finally seemed right when I found this outrageous woodgrain patterned fabric on clearance at Joann’s. There’s quite a bit of stretch to it, so I knew I’d get that same wonderful magic effect of being able to wear it no matter how my weight fluctuated, and I loved how that pattern provided some interest while still being subtle enough to make this skirt a wardrobe staple.

I’m also wild about the exposed zipper trend. I love how it takes a classic silhouette and makes it so modern. I wish I had used a different method to sew in the zipper, but this will do.

Now I’m going to try and ignore the fact that I just put a picture of my booty up on the internet.

  1. I love a pencil skirt. My sister asked if she could borrow my black pencil skirt but was worried about fitting into it, and I said, "Well, I have the same skirt in 4 sizes."

    LOVE the woodgrain and exposed zipper. Much more stylish than a plain old black one that I'm apparently so fond of.
