No. 2 Pencil Skirt in Tinsel Tweed

Description from J Crew: A true design icon—the pencil skirt—meticulously shaped and seamed to figure-flattering perfection (say hello to mile-long legs). Crafted from metallic threaded lace, it delivers just the right amount of seasonal sparkle. We also love it with blouses and blazers for the office. Acrylic/poly/nylon/wool. Pencil skirt shape. Sits at waist. Back zip. Back vent. Fully lined. 23 1/2″ long.

Even though I have the Unagi Tweed Pencil Skirt, I was curious to see the tinsel part of this skirt. I was hoping it might be a good holiday skirt. I purchased my usual size 6 for J Crew pencil skirts. The fit is great, like always, and the color is amazing. But, alas, the skirt just didn’t do it for me. You can see the metallic thread from far away but the close up shot doesn’t show it very well. I don’t see myself wearing this other than for the holidays or special occasions due to the metallic thread so this will go back.

What do you think of this skirt?
