I have two lovely pencil skirts below.
~ Crossover Pencil Skirt in Plumeria Jacquard, size 8 ~
I knew with the jacquard material of this skirt that I would need to size up to an 8, from my normal size 6. I think I would stick with this size instead of the Petite 8 due to the crossover style. Though the length hits below the knee on me, I think it’s needed due to the exposed part of the crossover. I wouldn’t want to take the Petite with the shorter length and expose more leg, especially when sitting down.
~ Short-Sleeve Popover Shirt, Navy, size 6 ~
I loved this popover and was able to size down to a 6. Even in that size the shirt was still comfortable and blouse-y. I can see this being worn a lot in both the Navy and White. This comes in Petite but I think I would stick with the size 6. I usually only order the Petite size if I want a slightly smaller fit.
~ Linen Cargo Pencil Skirt, Dark Ecru, size 6 ~
This was the only color in my store. As far as fit, this as good in my normal size 6. The Dark Ecru seemed a little bland to me. I know it will pair great with navy and chambray as well as black but I have a cotton pencil skirt in a similar color and have worn it only twice. I really wanted to try the Navy but it’s sold out online now. I love the color, online, of the Tidewater. I see pairing that color with the Short-Sleeve Popover Shirt in White. Still, it’s a great pencil skirt for Summer, I’d order the Petite 8 in this skirt to shorten the length to just above the knee.
I’ve added the Linen Cargo Pencil Skirt in Tidewater to my wishlist and am pondering an order of the Short-Sleeve Popover Shirt in both solid colors. That shirt style also comes in Stripe.
