sweater + pencil




          Spring is gradually fading away and summer is nearly upon us. Some days you can feel the strength of the sun, while others remain frigid. This random weather may not only confuse the mind, but also disrupt the fluidity of daily attire selection. A go-to-outfit in this climate is the combination of an oversized sweater and a pencil skirt. Together, the sweater and pencil build a relationship on balance, harmony, and aesthetic pleasure, much like what makes fashion itself survive. In regards to the characteristics of the sweater, a neutral knit is preferred. In regards to the pencil skirt, colour, print, and texture may vary, as long as the garment retains the pencil silhouette. When the seasons treat you with erratic behavior, you must challenge it with an unpredictable outfit.
