Thursday’s TPS Report: White House|Black Market’s Plaid Pencil Skirt

Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. We begin the week in splurge mode, with our most expensive suggestions, and wind our way to Friday, where a less expensive item of clothing might be just what you need to make it to the weekend. Pencil skirts are an office basic, and we love this plaid one from White House|Black Market. White can be a tricky color to wear, but the pattern makes this easier — more flattering on a body, and less problematic if the skirt gets dirty somehow, such as with some spilled soup or errant pen markings. We’d wear it with a black twinset and, perhaps, dark purple pumps. It’s $78 at White House|Black Market. Plaid Pencil Skirt
