)
then what can I wear on my feet? (am about 5' 4'' and about size 10 and mid forties) I am not good with heels (as in woudl fall over ) and I want to look smartish (but not too smart)
Any advice much appriciated :)

Well I wouldnt wear that patterend skirt with those lacy tights for starters, sorry

One has to be plain, then you can wear any highish shoe boot or something with a built in platform that looks high but actually isnt because of the platform

But please...DONT wear those tights with that skirt

I like the tights but not with that skirt I'm afraid. Would wear ballerinas.

okay - will drop the tights :)
should I wear plain tights? (I'll freeze with no tights )
So, assuming that I have plain tights now (colour? Black or "skin coloured"?) then what kind of shoes go with shortish skirts in winter? (Am used to summer when I wear sandels).

Just so I get this right :)
If I want to wear the tights then should I wear a plain skirt? What sort of thing does go with lacy tights?

It doesn't necessarily have to be a plain skirt, just that I wouldn't wear the one you originally linked to. You could mix textures with those tights so have, say, a woollen skirt and a silky top. Depends on what you're wearing it for etc. I agree pumps would work well with the tights - a simple pair of ballerinas or the like. I would go for black...
