Isabella Oliver High-Waisted Pencil ($93)
I’ve been craving a bright pink pencil skirt since last summer. This skirt is perfect for a casual work day or for those of you who work in a funkier environment like an ad agency, a pr firm or other creative business. Check back at 1:00PM for Two Ways to wear the skirt.
A few months ago, my husband killed two of my plants. I was out of town for several weeks, and while I was away, he apparently forgot that plants need water to live. So when I returned, my snake plant and my Calamondin tree were both dead, while his braided money tree continued to thrive. […]

I've been craving a bright pencil skirt as well, but $93 is a little too much to spend. Do you have a cheaper version you could recommend?
I LOVE my hot pink pencil skirt, but definitely save it for days we're not in session.
