Plus Size Office Classics: Sweater and Pencil Skirt

I LOVE getting dressed up in fancy dresses and wearing my high, super sparkly (and impractical) heels…but the reality is…I have a day job and can’t wear most of my fun and flirty outfits to the office. Most days, I have to look professional and put my #girlboss chops to work. Anyone who has ever worked in an office knows that it’s easy to get stuck in a workwear wardrobe rut. That’s why I make a point to reinterpret classic combos in fresh ways.

For instance, the classic sweater and pencil skirt combo has been rocked at the office by women of all ages and sizes for decades. Many women tend to reach for solid colored bottoms and printed tops…but what if you reversed that?? I put a twist on the classic sweater and pencil skirt look by wearing this bright solid red sweater and pairing it with a leopard print pencil skirt — both from Lane Bryant. So fresh…a little edgy…but also professional and chic!
