The other weekend I was so happy to be able to wear something other than just black when I went to work for Dior! I had to speak at the Lord & Taylor Trend Show and was told to "fancify" my look and to wear something to grab the attention of the attendees.

I decided this Houndstooth pencil skirt would be perfect! I had gotten it at Dress Barn earlier that week and was so excited to be able to wear it. I always have such a hard time waiting to wear my new things, I just get so excited and want to see the great outfits I can come up with!

I was also told to try and incorporate red into the outfit, which I loved, but the only problem with that was I don't have any red tops aside from a red dress and a red flannel. I figured the flannel would probably not be appropriate, so the red dress it was! Since it is a very form fitting dress it didn't really add any bulk by wearing it under the skirt. And voila! a chic ensemble created!

I absolutely loved this outfit and can't wait to pair this skirt with something else!
