Lookbook: H & M Pencil Skirt & Black Ruched I.N.C Sweater

Here  is another H & M pencil skirt- one of my favorites. Black with bold gray down the sides. I paired it with a black ruched sleeve sweater from I.N.C. that is very petite friendly.
The detail on the skirt is hard to see but it's got gray bold stripes down the sides and cute ruching detail in the front with pockets.
Here is what the back looks like.....
Top: I.N.C Ruched Sweater- size PXS (comes in 3 different colors)
Skirt: H & M black and gray pencil skirt- size 2 (similar Here and Here in 00p and 0p)
Pumps: Aldo patent pumps- size 5
Purse: Chanel Grand Shopper Tote
I love the fit of this skirt. The waist has belt loops that you can opt to wear a belt but I think it looks cuter without one. The hips and length - all surprisingly fit very comfortably and still showing off your shape. I love that the gray accentuates the plain black. My Chanel purse is my FAVORITE purse. The grand shopper tote is perfect for me because I can throw so much in there and you can wear this on your shoulder or carry in in your hand. It's made out of CAVIER sting ray leather so it can take some abuse- which is nice especially when you are shopping or working!
I just love how H & M skirts fit. I really am surprised at how well they fit and how petite friendly they are. The I.N.C ruched sweater is one of favorites! I got them in 3 different colors when they were on sale at Macy's. I am not a big fan of I.N.C petite clothes but every now and then - I find a great deal I can't pass up. And the I.N.C petite XS's fit very well. The length and shoulders are perfect for petites. I must have a thing for ruched sleeves because everytime I see them on a sweater or top- I cannot resist!! It's so feminine and adds a little flair to a plain top :)
Here's more pics.....
I'm not really into the ALL BLACK ensemble look- but this time I think it works because of the gray accents. Plus it doesn't hurt that it elongates a petite frame :)
