When it comes to work wear, I love pencil skirts. The sexy, figure-hugging silhouette always looks flattering, and whenever I wear one it always seems to boost my confidence. (The fact that guys continually rate pencil skirts as one of the hottest styles a woman can wear definitely has something to do with this.)

But -- and it's sad that women today should even have to worry about this -- how do you wear a pencil skirt to work without looking too sexy? Simple: Just keep your cleavage under wraps, stick with balanced or neutral makeup, and keep your hair classy with a polished hairstyle. Think Kate Winslet -- not Kate Upton.

To exude that certain chic at the office and after hours, you want to look effortlessly great, not like you spent all morning doing your hair. To give you a better idea of what works, I've rounded up some celebrity styles that are easy to copy. See which is your favorite and give it a go. You'll love how it makes you feel.
