8: Pencil Skirt

From Mary Tyler Moore to Carla Bruni-Sarkozi, pencil skirts are the must-have skirt of the modern, professional woman. Minimalist and unassuming(谦逊的), they're a blankcanvas(帆布) to your fashion imagination(想象力).Tucked(卷起) or untucked(分开), belt(带) or no belt, your pencil skirt is the ultimate(最终的) in stylish(时髦的)versatility(多功能性).

Paired with a white blouse and jacket, it's a below-the-radar bottom. Mix that same skirt with a red silk blouse, on the other hand, and it becomes a sleek(圆滑的), sexy accessory(配件). Windy day? Not to worry -- even withblustery(大风的) breezes(微风), this skirt will keep your tush(犬齿) covered.
