Hi,

Im new to MN and was wondering if you lovely ladies could help me.

I've got a rare night out planned for the end of the month and was hoping to find a black skirt to go with a top Ive found- www.warehouse.co.uk/fcp/product/fashion//WINTER-FLORAL-PRINT-TOP/12856
What do you think?

I really am clueless!

Thanks for your help x

Could look frumpy and dull with a black skirt. You can't find one because no-one is wearing black skirts any more dahhhhling. wink

Wear it with jeans or black trousers - nice pair of heels?

Aaaaah right, it's been a while! blush

So nice shoes.... don't suppose you can recommend some nice heels (preferably comfy!!!)

Thanks

Ooh, dunno - but Clarks are usually comfy! Or Jones the Bootmaker - both got websites...

Think jeans or trousers would look better with the top. If you did want to go down the skirt route you'd probably be best with a pencil skirt
I'm liking these

Thanks for your help ladies. Clure- I like those shoes too! Look like killers, but I'll give them a go.

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
