Black, dark green, white?

AnneOfCleavage · 15/05/2018 08:13

A bright coral
Anything patterned that has a bit of cream of beige

Branleuse · 15/05/2018 08:31

black

Branleuse · 15/05/2018 08:32

also dye the shorts black

itsBritneyBeach · 15/05/2018 08:42

Any colour except the same colour!

Loveagoodbook · 15/05/2018 09:45

Do you think a mustard colour would go?

Beige is a neutral. You can wear any colour you like with it!

ErrolTheDragon · 15/05/2018 10:09

The only things mustard goes with is roast beef or smoked mackerel.

Theimpossiblegirl · 15/05/2018 10:12

A white or pale blue cotton shirt.

Not mustard I don't think so, no.
Navy matches cream.

IwankaTramp · 15/05/2018 13:07

Taupe

Ellapaella · 15/05/2018 13:20

Errol I disagree. It definitely goes well with a ham sandwich on white bread.

Loveagoodbook · 15/05/2018 15:52

Thanks everyone, i went vegetarian in novemeber so no Ham and Beef for me!!

erroll and ella Grin

I think with plain neutral shorts, print, colourful tops are the way to gon

HerRoyalNotness · 15/05/2018 16:31

I like that emerald on win the middle

somethingunique · 15/05/2018 16:33

I think they look nice together.

A white or black top would also go nicely

GladysKnight · 15/05/2018 17:11

those shorts look 'greyish' enough to cope with that quite yellowy mustard I think? A warmer beige wouldn't have worked probably!

itsBritneyBeach · 15/05/2018 18:07

The yellow looks lovely! I absolutely definitely would wear that

Loveagoodbook · 15/05/2018 18:29

Aah thanks im more confused than ever now!! I love the other two tops too!! 😦

I think the yellow would work! Those shorts look quite floaty so I'd go with a more fitted top to avoid you looking shapeless.

Ellapaella · 15/05/2018 20:50

Yes the yellow top looks good with the shirts so I take it all back, although the top is more yellow than mustard. Nice shorts op.

Ellapaella · 15/05/2018 20:51

I mean shorts not shirts obviously!

Loveagoodbook · 15/05/2018 21:09

Cherryblossom, dont throw a fitted top into the mix!! 😂
