While probably 80% of the nation is glued to their television watching the Superbowl, I've popped in "Meet Me in St. Louis" into the DVD player. Such scandal =OP
I love pencil skirts. And I've developed quite a love affair with J.Crew's No.2 Pencil Skirts.
The skirt in a size 0 is perfect for me
And when I love something, I tend to be quite, quite loyal.
The most I've spent on the skirt is $90 for the red, and the cheapest was $23 for the black (lucky find at the outlets)
And I've accumulated enough in the past few months to go through an entire workweek without repeating. I thought it'd be fun to try doing just that:

I doubt that I'd truly wear the skirts for a whole week straight in real life, but I will typically have one or two days each week that I'll throw it on.
And over the weekend, I found a perfect orange-red lipstick that compliments my skirt in Vibrant Flame, so that's probably the pick for this coming week.
