Help me style these two skirts please!

My son's naming ceremony is this weekend. I am still carrying baby weight and am breast-feeding, having nightmare finding an outfit.

Narrowed it down to these two tube skirts that suit my shape(and fit!)

Ignore Minging styling by Zara, skirts are lovely on. I'm wearing them with either a black/blue silk t shirt up top, but could be swayed If someone will suggest something else, long sleeved.

Otherwise, can anyone suggest what type of blazer/cardigan might go?

Am really struggling!

Crisp white shirt and some bling costume jewellery - easy access for breast feeding and the structure of the shirt will hide your worries about baby weight.

Thanks Sunny. See, all my weight is on my bum and tum. A tucked in shirt would accentuate it, although I love that look.

Really looking for something long, that just covers my bum!

So maybe long sleeve top? Blazer? Smart cardigan? Just can't see anything on the high street!

Will be wearing black tights in case that makes a difference?

You could put the shirt over the top and put a belt around it giving you a peplum type look?
Something like one of the pics here?

Those picture look great!

However, on further reflection, I see that a top, shirt or jumper will either looks too worky or too casual on me. I think I need a blazer, but one that's not too formal.

Anyone seen any Isabel Marant-esque Blazers that would work with this look?

Needs to be found on high street!
