    Default sexy pencil skirt?

    I've been looking for a long time for a sexy pencil skirt that's around knee length. I'd like to get one in black that'll be a fall staple to wear with lots of different tops. I've tried on knee length skirts in Express (tried on about all the different styles there) and several other stores and didn't really find any that were right. I had my bf with me because I wanted to get something he'd like to see me in. He didn't like any of the ones I tried on. If anyone had a pencil skirt that they really like where did you get it? Who makes good ones? Also a straight skirt might also work. I'd like something that flatters curvey bodies (I have hips and am a size 2 in Express). I'm starting to wonder are pencil skirts that are around knee length considered sexy (by guys). Thanks!

    Have you been to Bebe or Nordstroms? They are so sexy to me. Pencil skirts aren't made for every height so don't be afraid, in fact do get them hemmed to give a better fit. A skirt should cut off at the thinnest part of the leg to maximize the good curves.

    For sexy, get something rather high waisted, with curving side seams that ends just below your knees. Wear it with a close fitting top that you can tuck in without the lines showing underneath. I'd reccomend a high end clothing store that caters to young professionals, or, barring that, a seamstress.

    Is this the look you are going for?

    Maybe try Victoria's Secret? I bought two pecil skirts from their website last fall and love them with knee high boots. I wear a size 6 though so I don't how their skirts fit girls with a smaller frame like yourself.

    I think every man has a different idea of sexy clothes. My man likes really short skirts and also skin tight leather pants. However I love pencil skirts so I wear them anyways . Somtimes you just have wear what make you feel good and not worry about other people.

    Happy Hunting!

    What type of fabrics should I choose? Wool is too hot, and I try to steer clear of those cheap synthetics that rely on stretch rather than actual tailoring. Microfiber might be good.

    Thanks girlies for the help. I'm going to check out the stores listed. For some reason I always thought I was too big to shop in Bebe for pants or skirts since the sizes fit small and I usually see tiny girls in the store. I figured they have my size but before I though it was meant to flatter tiny girls. I weigh in the low-mid 120s, 5'5. I'd probably be a size 6 there.
    Cherry_sin, I was considering a higher skirt. They are cute and sexy retro.
    If the fit isn't right I would get it tailored. I was at the tailor today gettting jeans hemmed. I like supporting local businesses that way and I get a better fit and I'm sure not going to do it myself.
    Yeah I agree that men have different opinions on clothes. Alot of them like the short skirts but I think knee length looks much more classy and elegant.
