There is nothing more flattering than a pencil skirt when a women wants to dress casual or for business. The pencil skirt hugs a woman's curves and really accentuates a their natural femininity. These days find all manner of lengths for a pencil skirt. There are also many colors but white and black continue to be among the favorites.

There are many celebrities that are known for wearing pencil skirts. When a celebrity wants to be seen by the photographers but do not want to appear too dressed up, it is always convenient to slide on a pencil skirt to run errands an still look fashionable yet comfortable.Some of my favorite celebrities in a pencil skirt include Jennifer Aniston, Renee Zellweger, Anne Hathaway and Jessica Biel among others. These women, for the most part, all have slim bodies and are extremely fit.

There used to be a day when a pencil skirt hindered a woman from walking. No longer as the length has shortened and slit have become common in the back or on the side of the skirt.

Shoes worn with a pencil skirt are varied. If the skirt is black or white then high heels typically look better with it. If the pencil skirt is denim or even a khaki then the opportunity to wear flats or high heels presents itself. Boots, either high or low, really do not look that great with a pencil skirt unless the skirt is leather. It really depends on the style and color of the skirt like most other fashion choices.

Pencil skirts and high heels simply go together. Sure you can wear a flat or a lower heel, but a slim and tight fitting skirt simply begs for a gorgeous high heel to be worn. Strappy gladiator always look amazing with a pencil skirt though a nice 4-inch or more pump looks just as nice. Suede high heels are popular in the fall and winter and always look fantastic with a pencil skirt.
