Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.
Would this midi-length leather skirt be a wildly impractical purchase? Yes. Does it make me want it any less? Absolutely not. We’ve discussed whether leather can be worn to the office in the past, and I think Kat’s advice is spot-on. Obviously, it’s always going to be a know-your-office situation, but make sure it’s high-quality and fits well, and pair it with a more conservative top, like a button-up or silk blouse.
If black isn’t your thing, this also comes in a reddish-brown, but lucky sizes only.
The skirt is $895 at A.L.C. and comes in sizes 00-14.
