Over the years, I’ve amassed a closet full of pencil skirts. I want to expand into some other shapes and, this season, no shape is hotter than the flare skirt. Depending on the length, this style can be a fun addition to your professional and casual wardrobes.

This week, I fell mindlessly into my phone more than I think I ever have. My screen time went from 3.5 hours per day to 5 hours per day. But the increased eye strain did lead to some good finds. Just going to leave this right here. (I really need to work on “Didn’t make […]
For eight years, I have worn the same workout shorts. Every year, an influencer tries to sell me new shorts. I order them. I try them on. They pale in comparison to the shorts I already own. I return them.
Have a big day ahead? Major hearing? Big trial? The presentation of your life? Gonna be at a conference with that ex? Whatever it happens to be, these are the fashion weapons that get me to the confidence level that I need to be at.

Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.
I would send my intern home if her skirt was that short. Maybe the featured skirt itself is OK on a person shorter than the model, but as shown, it's not good!
Wow, that third skirt is awfully short. I agree with Amanda, I'd send an intern home if she showed up in something like that. Hopefully it's just on a very tall model and it is actually knee-length. Otherwise it's a really cute skirt!
So glad to see non-pencil skirts! Love this style.
Re: Length, as it says in the post, you should only wear it to work if the length is appropriate. As we've discussed, appropriate work length is no more than four fingers above the knee when standing. I posted the skirt because it is notoriously difficult to tell whether a skirt will be too short on you if it's too short on a 5'10″ model.
Hi Ladies-I just reread those comments and my response…I may have been bitchier than intended. My apologies. If this were Office Space, I would say I had a case of the Mondays.
