I'm a little bummed that this is likely the last time this season that I'll be rocking bare legs; after some mild 60 degree weather, it's suddenly freezing in the Midwest!
On to the skirt, I am a huge fan of this skirt; I like the bold pattern in a classic color combo; it's currently only $19.97--65% off. That's better than Forever 21 pricing!
Fit: Fits fairly well. Slight gap in the waist, but I feel like if I sized down, then the skirt would be slightly too short.
Quality: Unlined. This skirt is made of a rayon/polyester/spandex blend and is thus machine washable. The material feels sturdy and well-made.
Price: Originally $59. I actually purchased for $34, and noticed that it was marked down to $19.97. As always, Nordstrom has excellent customer service (I love their Live Chat feature... no messing around with automated systems for a simple price adjustment).
Bottom Line: Definitely recommended because it's super comfortable, stretchy, and fits well. A lot of pencil skirts can be very structured and uncomfortable, but I think the ponte material and stretchiness really help keep you comfy, though if you hate an unlined skirt, this might not be right for you.

I love your skirt - Halogen is such a good brand and what a steal! =) Your pink sweater looks so pretty with it too!

Just picked up the houndstooth version of that skirt at Nordstrom Rack for $19.97 - I'm excited to wear it! I like how you styled yours with the ruffles and pink cardi. :)
