Ideas for styling this pink pencil skirt for a wedding

9 replies

I got this skirt

Yes it's Per Una Speziale Shock but it is really lovely and looks better on me than the model in those photos. It's got a lovely 50s Gina Lollobrigida feel.

Give me some ideas on how to style it for a wedding. I was going to wear a cream lacy top and gold peep toe shoes but your ideas would be welcome.

PS: I KNOW it's Per Una but it still is lovely.

PPS: I'm a tall blondey brown, blue-eyed hourglass.

Gorgeous skirt! Sometimes Per Una has moments of clarity.

If you put 'pink pencil skirt' into Pinterest, you'll get some great ideas, particularly involving stripes and also polka dots!

This blouse would look amazing. I've seen it in real life and it's stunning:

A blouse this sort of colour would work well, particularly with black accessories.

I also love pink with this green and with Bronze

this with gold accessories would work too.

That's a fabulous skirt!

Yes it is a fabulous skirt.

Did I mention it's Per Una? Shock

I would never think of putting it with some of these colour combos - that is really interesting. I am so boring, I just thought black or white/cream.

That skirt is gorgeous!

I wore similar to a wedding a while back with white top and gold shoes.

I like the green french connection top. Would probably need a blazer because wedding is soon. Also I hate my arms.

I keep going back to the bronze one as well. I would never in a million years have thought of that but it would look fab and I have bronze shoes (hopefully not too matchy matchy). The smallest size is 14 though (I am 12) and I wonder if it would be a bit bulky as the skirt is so fitted around the waist.
