The pencil skirt is fashion gold!

Ladylike and demure or sexy and sophisticated, the pencil skirt is fashion gold. This season it takes centre stage in clashing colour ways and on-trend patterns. Skirts are also a fabulous way to show off your legs, hosiery, shoes and look sexy.

What I really love about pencil skirt is that it's flexible enough to team up with most types of tops and shoes. It has (almost) everything you can ever wish in a skirt, and that's why I consider a pencil skirt to be one of your most important wardrobe essentials.

Another trend sure to put off minimalists: NEON. It screams "Go Bold or Go home"

Soften punchy pink or loud lemon with a sheer blouse for a delicate effect. Or embrace this statement-making rainbow parrot print blouse to go tone-on-tone with structural separates.
