A pencil skirt is one of my favorite fashion items. It’s timeless, classic and always sophisticated and a bit flirty. I may spend most of my time in jeans and Chucks, but I wouldn’t mind having more occasions for which a pencil skirt would be in order. This tutorial from Lizzie of C&C shows how you can make a pencil skirt without using a pattern. With a few measurements and pinning, you can whip up a custom pencil skirt in no time. [via Stacy Sews]
