For me, I put a red pencil skirt in the same category as a red lipstick — something classy and ladylike that will never go out of style. I wanted the red skirt here to be center stage, so I kept the rest of the look neutral in camels and blacks. To pull all the different pieces together, I opted for a wide elastic belt. It’s the perfect solution to cinch in the waist and close all the little gaps!
I’m also super stoked about these earrings! I recently won them from a giveaway on Tiffany’s blog and couldn’t wait to style them. They’re all serious crystals in the front, but are a party in the back with multicolor dangles!

Classy and ladylike is exactly how you look with that skirt, the color is just so chic, and nothing better than a flap Chanel bag to complete a classic look!
