The Little Skirt that Could by Kat Griffin of Corporette : Lucky Magazine

Founder and editor of corporette.com, Kat Griffin, helps her readers dress stylishly (yet appropriately) for work. Today is her last day guest-blogging this week at Lucky Right Now--be sure to visit this former lawyer's website for more office-girl obsessions and 9-to-5 fashion tips.

A simple pencil skirt is a must-have for any summer office wardrobe. One of the best (and most inexpensive!) finds I've seen lately: this seamed skirt from Halogen, a Nordstrom brand. It's available in a variety of colors, including black, gray, a green "chalet," a blue "cadet" and a "fever pink," in sizes 0-16. And, bonus, some are on sale, so depending on which one you pick, this hardworking staple will only set you back $45-$68.
