Fashion sense ... Pencil Skirts and Tights

As a writer/editor/proofreader, I think I need to own a nice selection of pencil skirts :-). Here's one that I saw at the Limited.

You can see more details here. I like that the houndstooth pattern is black, but also has the color of the year in it -- camel. I like it paired with the tights and the slouch boots, but I don't care for the white shirt. Not sure how I would wear it though.

Here's another pencil skirt from The Limited.

The Limited also has the tights, but they're a bit on the pricey side.

You can't really see in the picture, but the tights have a tiny rib to them.
