Once-upon-a- time pencil skirts and straight skirts were considered purely a uniform for the office. But now, this capsule wardrobe icon has reemerged as so much more than a piece for the 9 to 5.

You might dress them up with some heels and a silk blouse, wear them casually with a t-shirt and flat sandals, or style them for cooler days with a bomber jacket, knit and sneakers. 

And as well as these ideas for styling for your social life, you can absolutely still include pencil skirts and straight skirts in your work wardrobe.

Not only for chic office style but for outfits that can take you from work to dinner and drinks without fail. 

There are so many options, whether it’s warm or cold where you are.

Keep scrolling to find 23 of the best pencil skirts and straight skirts I’ve seen this season. 

The collection I’ve put together offers timeless styles that will remain valuable closet staples for many years to come.

Plus, make sure you visit a post I shared on Instagram offering ideas and inspiration for outfits to style with your pencil skirt or straight skirt
