I bought dd1 a very pale green skirt from monsoon - what colour tights and top?

[ENIDeepMidwinter]

I randomly bought dd1 (6) a 'celery' green net skirt with silver sequins from the monsoon sale - its lovely but now completely stumped as to what colour top and tights? What would you put with it?

[ENIDeepMidwinter]

its on the website under Girls - fairytale party skirt (except hers is very pale green)

[collision]

cream

I like pale green with pale pink - I think it looks fresh and pretty. Other than that I would use cream tights/top.

[ENIDeepMidwinter]

yes agree about the pink

it would have to be just the right shade though

I thought about lilac

[cupcakesbakingonanopenfire]

That's very pretty. Is the sale on in the shops?
Laughed at the 'Carrie' sequinned skirt - wonder where they got that name from.

[Auntybrandybutter]

pink tights?!!!! sorry cant see that!!!
Would go for a neytral tight and a cream or pink top

[ENIDeepMidwinter]

lol

there is a monsoon sale outlet near me - it was only 12.95

[ENIDeepMidwinter]

ok so I'll try and persuade her into a pair of plain cream tights

[ENIDeepMidwinter]

she is wedded to bright mad stripy ones

[cupcakesbakingonanopenfire]

Maybe lilac would work but am having trouble visualising them together. Prefer the pink combination (but yes, it would need to be a light, delicate pink - the idea being to look like pink blossom against pale green leaves!)

[ScummyMummy]

it sounds beautiful. Can you get silver tights, maybe? Not sure about top. Purple or lilac, perhaps? Does this help?

[Auntybrandybutter]

oh its your dd's not yours!! teach me not to read a thread!!!!

[cupcakesbakingonanopenfire]

I love green on girls. But it is hard to accessorise.

[ENIDeepMidwinter]

I thought of silver tights! but impossible to find in dorset

how lovely though

[Auntybrandybutter]

do next do silver?

[ENIDeepMidwinter]

will look

[ENIDeepMidwinter]

right your mission is to find a pretty cream coloured top that will go wtih it, that doesnt have "Vintage Babe" scrawled across it

[ENIDeepMidwinter]

that links to the home page

if it is the pretty pintucked one it is 4 weeks delivery

[ENIDeepMidwinter]

no it defaults tot he ome page
v annoying

[cupcakesbakingonanopenfire]

M&S pintucked top

[ENIDeepMidwinter]

but out of stock

still, we are on the same wavelength

[ENIDeepMidwinter]
