Tee: Nordstrom | Jacket: Arden B (old, similar here) | Skirt: 424 Fifth | Shoes: Target (old) | Jewelry: Michael Kors watch, JewelMint

As you have probably noticed, black and white combos have been my recent go-to look. It is such an easy combination for all hours of the day. I'm loving this skirt from 424 Fifth with the tweed fabric and black piping details. The high/low hem is just an added design bonus that sets this pencil skirt apart from others in the marketplace. If you are lost and don't know what to wear (it happens) go for black and white basics and you can't miss.
