Sustainable Pencil Skirt Outfit Inspiration for Summer

Sustainable Pencil Skirt Outfit Inspiration for Summer

The pencil skirt has been a staple in the working women’s closet for as long as women have been allowed in offices. Below are 5 looks oriented around the pencil skirt. The looks are summery enough to be worn in August but professional enough to be worn all year too.

Look #1 

This look has been giving me a hint of Spanish flamenco vibe because of the skirt. So, basically it’s an upgraded pencil skirt. 

Marine Serre Skirt– Made with upcycled fabrics in Italy.

Clean Reserve– Made in the U.S. with sustainably sourced ingredients.

Rise & Art Design Sunglasses– Made with recycled plastic.

Vanda Jacintho Bracelet– Handcarved from eco-friendly resin in Brazil.

Stefan Cooke Bag– Made with biodegradable paper fiber.

Claudie Pierlot T-Shirt– Made with organic cotton.

Bed Stu Heels– Made by hand using vacchetta leather.

Look #2

This skirt is a little looser in style. I absolutely adore the color and worked to find a top that had at least a little bit of the lilac. 

Nanushka Skirt– Made in the E.U. They use vegan leathers and ethically employ.
