Again, it depends on how you style it. If you pair it with a simple, classic top (white shirt, cashmere sweater in black/navy/gray/camel) and updated shoes, it will work.

J Crew has a few pencil skirts on its website. Here's a knee-length one. You can see how it is styled.

Here's a knee-length pencil skirt styled by Banana Republic.

Type in "pencil skirt" in the Banana Republic Factory search engine to say a range of knee-length ones and how they are styled:

Here's one by Theory:

I have never worn pencil skirts in any other environment than a conservative consulting office. I have no idea if they’re trendy or dated in the outside world but I would never not wear one to work.

If they suit your figure, keep them--they are classic staple. They look fantastic on hourglass shapes especially. You can update the look with the right top/jacket and shoes. Below are some ideas.

Dress them up with heels and they also look great dressed down with ballet flats or loafers, I don’t think pencil skirts can go out of style.

I would say pencil skirts are classic enough that they don’t go out of style

Never throw out a pencil skirt. It’s a classic!

They are incredibly flattering on the right body type. Don't get rid of them just bc they're not in style! They look way better than most trendy clothes today.

I also don't think there are well-defined trends for real work clothes any more anyway.

Yes, I look great in a pencil skirt. Shorter ones. Actually, maybe they're minis.

I have enormous shoulders and will never look good in a pencil skirt. I’m super jealous.

Yes! I saw a woman walking in one the other day and wished I were her. It was a fabulous look and I felt such envy. These thighs, butt, and pencil skirts don’t play well together.

Cleaning out my closet. Have about five pencil skirts. Are people still wearing these? I have not worn skirts to work for awhile and am deciding if I can still wear these…
