Hello, I’d like you to meet my new favourite skirt: I often shy away from pencil skirts because of their tendency to be very business-like and not too flattering on a girl with “meatier” calves, but the print on this one was just too beautiful to pass up. I’m excited to find more ways to dress it down so that I can get lots of wear out of it in the coming months; I think I will start with a […]
