things you never wear as you havent got anything to go with them

[KarlWrenbury]

Can I present this work skirt top left -sorry was only pic I can find

Its cool, its flippy, knee length. I have tried with a white t but looks odd.

Maybe try it with a metallic top? Metallic is a good neutral in my book.

aw ta Frankie - its the shape I cant get right.

I'd say it would need to be quite fitted with maybe a boat neck to balance out the flippyness of the skirt?

yes. Really hard to find

plus - tits

I'd probably go for a boat neck too, maybe in black

yes- but skirt navy. I like the boat neck idea.

What about a white vest top and maybe a little cardi or a shrug?

• I cant do vest tops at work. All my cardigans are longer and straight.

its a toughie isnt it?!

thanks for the help.

Boat neck top in navy? www.boden.co.uk/en-GB/Womens-Tops-T-shirts/3_4-Sleeved-Tops/WL713/Womens-Lightweight-Boatneck?NavGroupID=18

Yup. I have the lavender in that. My problem might be solved

Ah yes, navy then ! I think that would look gorgeous.

And that's just reminded me that I have that top in grey and have only worn it once. Time for a wardrobe re-shuffle methinks!

OUT OF STOCK

wah! Come on Boden

unless I go off piste and get orange
colour wheel opposites an all

I've got this gorgeous honey-coloured fake-fur jacket that I bought nearly 2 years ago and have never worn once. I feel as if I look fat in it, for some reason. And that I just don't know how to style it.

cant you put with black skinnies?

Karl - I would keep hunting for a plain, sort of fitted navy top and put orange accessories with it.

Koala - yes, skinnies sound good, how about pale distressed ones? Counter to the luxe fur look, the trashed jeans. I love fake fur.

I haven't got black or pale skinnies. . I would love some pale ones and wouldn't mind them a bit distressed, but all the ones I've seen seem to be ripped to shreds and just look shite.

I've got cobalt blue skinnies. Do you think they'd look okay with, say, grey t-shirt, nude suede ankle boots and the fake fur jacket?

grey ones are nice - dunno how it would tone with the HOney though

( btw this thread goes to prove you should never shop in shops that you dont belong in - hence the Fatface skirt in OP)

Oh Karl, as I live and breathe - I did not expect a Fat Face skirt in your post! (says me who has just ordered shoes from Coast!)

I was in there on a joyous shopping trip with h to get him to bin some naff t shirts, last summer , or maybe the year before.

impulse buy, you see.
is it the coast neon ones?

I have a gorgeous green and white striped maxi skirt from Whistles which I bought two years ago but have barely worn because nothing looks right with it.
