What to wear with this skirt?

I bought this a while ago but I'm rubbish at putting outfits together and end up wearing my jeans all the time. I'm looking for other options than skinny jeans, so hAve ordered a couple of skirts.

This is the skirt I have.
FC cord skirt

I have these boots and thought they might work but no idea about tights and top.
Tan boots

Help please! ??

Its a lovely skirt and the boots are nice too. What sort of top do you wear with skinny jeans? You could wear that skirt with any top - a jumper or top with cardigan would all be fine.

Tightwise the least scary look would be black tights and boots, or navy tights. I quite like grey tights and boots too. Not sure what colour I'd wear with those tan boots, probably brown.

Thanks, I usually wear jumpers, jersey tops with cardigans, nothing too exciting, just wondering about colours, as I see people with colours I wouldn't think to put together then try it and feel I look ridiculous!
I have grey& lots of black tights, will try brown and see how it goes Smile

If the skirt is navy blue it would look great with tan boots. Still not used to the ankle boots/short skirt combo but that is probably just me. I don't have great legs either.

Yeah the skirt is navy blue, what colour tights though with navy and tan? Would navy be too much navy, black or brown? I'm not sure!

I would go with grey tights with navy skirt and tan boots: navy or brown tights is too matchy matchy IMO. As long as it's all neutral it won't clash!

Great thanks, will give it a go, need to get some neutral coloured jumpers now.

Definitely grey! Wooly ones would look great.

Love that skirt btw :)
