Hi Ladies
I love the love of pencil skirts that come just below the knee but as a Muslimah I cant just wear tights or panty hose etc because they show my legs/shape.

Is there anyway to overcome this? I have no idea how this might work but I just thought I would ask...


Thanks

What about tall boots that come up to the knee? Would that be okay? If not, I'm at a loss. I don't think a pencil skirt would look right with pants underneath.

You could do tall boots, or you could do a long pencil skirt with a full kickback slit, or, if you were doing a more casual look, you could do something like 'skinny jeans' underneath - close to the leg, but not form fitting.

Maybe another, longer skirt underneath? But I thought pencil skierts were supposed to show one's shape?

---Just below the knee?? Maybe some knee high boots and leg warmers bunched up coming out of the boot? - but you may see your knee when you sit

I didnt wanna go with boots cuz I think they look good when tight/fitted.

I may look to see if they have some longer length pencil type skirts.

I work with mainly with women but occasionally a man may come to the training and so I need to be covered.

I didnt think they would like right but thought I'd ask you ladies cuz I have no idea when it comes to fashion!

Thanks everyone for responding...will give this idea up lol

Thanks

I know a sister who wore pencil skirts with jersey (material) pants underneath...usually in the same color or a nice contrasting color.

Maybe you could buy a long pencil skirt?
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't a pencil skirt also show your shape?

Yes a pencil skirt does but I work with women so its not really an issue and if Im out and about I have my abaya on so men wont see I just dont want bare legs or a total outline.
But I think I am going to have to pass on this idea.

Thanks again everyone.
