Before I even had much time to obsess and stalk the Wildcat Ombre Pencil Skirt at J.Crew, it went on sale! What luck.

It looks much better in person and on the body than in this stock photo, I think. The ombre effect is much more evident and the pink is much more vibrant.

Here’s another shot of the full pencil skirt and how it’d look with something tucked in.

The material is pretty thin, so I feel like any bumps on your body will show (or if you had a big dinner….ooof). Fortunately, that’s offset by the great distraction of a leopard-ish pattern. It also fits comfortably in my normal pencil skirt size. I like it a lot and from what I’ve read, many other girls also love it, so I will anticipate this skirt showing up everywhere in NYC just as the Ink Blossom skirt has!

Get it here from J.Crew on sale for $59.99.
