Help! I am wearing this skirt for a smart/casual family occasion (not a wedding). What top do I wear?! For practical reasons will be in red flat sandals probably. I am slimmer on top than bottom so not a floaty style top. Thanks in advance!

I'd wear a black Bardot body .

I'd go for red on top rather than black, just something to lift it.

Would you wear a pink, red or black fitted blouse in a sheer material? A black fitted high neck or v neck cardigan with pretty buttons or fitted v neck lightweight jumper? A black short sleeve top?

Fitted black top, maybe sleeveless.

Mrstumbletap · 29/08/2017 11:07

These types, tucked in.

Thanks all, off to shops at lunchtime. The only problem with a strappy top is the bra strap issue.

Get a good strapless bra , don't wear a stroppy top with straps , it will ruin the outfit .

Thanks guys. Tried on a red blouse in Zara but looked bit frumpy. Then picked up tight black top similar to last e.g. on thread in Gap which looked good - will post pic later if anyone interested!

I think tight black for sure . I think it has a tendency to be frumpy but the right too and shoes will amend that ! Love to see the pic !

Here we go! Will obvs be sorting out toenails etc!

BluebellGal · 29/08/2017 18:25

Wow looks lovely

Millipedewithherfeetup · 29/08/2017 18:32

Lovely !

Arcadia · 29/08/2017 19:45

Was going to do red sandals but flat black ballet pumps might look good. Can't really do heels for this occasion.

Where is the skirt from? It's lovely.

MrsChopper · 29/08/2017 19:53

Looks lovely!

I got the skirt from H & M about a month ago. A bit of a find! Think I will get to wear it in all seasons.

I like the satiny waistband.

Ooh that's really lovely.

Openup41 · 29/08/2017 20:33

Perfect! A great pair of heels will finish this outfit off nicely.

imjessie · 29/08/2017 21:44

Looks fab!

Mrstumbletap · 29/08/2017 21:48

Yeah some nice shoes and maybe a 'up do' if you have long hair.

Red or dark pink lips?

OuchLegoHurts · 29/08/2017 23:14

Fab!
