Over to Rhoda...

Hey, there friends! Today’s fashion post is highlighting a company I’ve shared with you before, cabotparticlematters.

It’s been a while, but today I’m sharing more of a business-like outfit with their Black Pencil Skirt and Scoop Neck Tank.

Both pieces are suited to adding a jacket to dress it up and to me, pencil skirts just go with heels. I wouldn’t wear flats with a skirt like this. Their Scoop Neck Tank is very versatile and great for any summer outfits, so keep that in mind.


I’m wearing the Scoop Neck Tank and the Black Pencil Skirt, pairing it with a black and white long jacket that came from Target.

Since it was chilly that day, I pulled out the pantyhose, which you don’t see me in very often, but this skirt calls for heels and hose. My legs do not need to be bare this time of year, so nude hose it is! I wore this to church on Sunday.


The Tank has a little slit on the side and is longer than normal, so a good overall white top to have in your wardrobe. Both of these pieces are made from MicroModal and spandex, which has a really nice stretch to it. I got a Medium in the skirt and a Small in the top.


I’ve always liked the lines of pencil skirts, they are classic and hit just below the knee which is good for us over 50 gals. I added nude pumps with this outfit. Black and white is always a great combo!


I’m not in the business world anymore, but this is a classic style outfit that would work for many occasions. Just change out the jacket and you’ve got 2 versatile pieces in your wardrobe.
