I'm surprised you don't have a whack of black skirts! It's very easy to amass a lot of plain black pencil skirts, though (my friend Yvonne has that same issue). I know, the details are all different!

The skirt is a true keeper for its front and back slits, how it hangs on you, the waistline, not to mention its Gianfranco Ferre. :-) My one and only best black skirt was a lined linen pencil skirt that, after years of wear, eventually split across the tush (of all places!)
