Denim shirt and pencil skirt

I am seeing a lot of denim shirt styled with black pencil skirt in the catalogs. Is it fashionable to wear denim shirt to work these days ?

Re: Denim shirt and pencil skirt

I haven't see much, if at all, people wearing denim shirts. Denim "shirt?" Seems strange too me. If indeed this is the trend that's going on, I get a hunch that it will be very short lived.

Now the black pencil skirt on the other hand is a gorgeous look that is timeless. Pair with a white blouse, or if you're feeling daring...a shimmery satin blouse. Smiley Happy

Unless you work in a super conservative environment, chambray/denim has found its way back for a couple of years now. With denim, accessories DO make a difference.

LOVE the look, it's been in for a couple years now. You can find chambray shirts at Loft, Gap, Old Navy, lots of places! The only problem I have is I am a bit bootylicious so pencil skirts aren't always a "work appropriate" look for me.

I love this combination...every time I see it online or in a catalogue my eye goes right to it. I'm a huge fan of classic white button downs but the two chambray ones currently in my closet are almost as versatile. I agree when combining the casual boyfriend vibe of a denim shirt with a lady like element like a black pencil skirt...the accessories tie the look together.

I got the prettiest one last spring at Banana Republic!

Re: Denim shirt and pencil skirt

I do not think denim anything is work appropriate unless where you work is very casual dress.
