SOS! Graduation outfit help needed!

Hi all.

I graduate in a couple of weeks and was wondering if you could link me to tops that would match with the linked skirt (preferably white!).

www.asos.com/asos-petite/asos-design-petite-satin-midi-skirt-with-self-belt/prd/9168671?clr=red&SearchQuery=&cid=15495&gridcolumn=1&gridrow=4&gridsize=4&pge=1&pgesize=72&totalstyles=1444

I have long legs and a short torso with big boobs (30G). I'm also a little tubby and self conscious atm so don't want anything too floaty that would make me look fat.

TIA!

I have been to graduation today and can say what I saw. The skirt is great it will stand out well in a sea of black and as you walk across the stage.
You need something to secure the gown to so a blouse with buttons might work. White works well and won’t date in photos. If you wear heels make sure you can move up stairs fluidly, lots of stumbling and clomping today. Take flats, hair grips to keep your cap on and a bottle of water. It was amazing but gruelling.
The blouse should be something you can wear again. Next sale was good.

@Pancticles I'll check Next thank you! Glad you think the skirt is appropriate.

No tops to add as I'm a different shape to you, but I wanted to say that I also wore red to mine, a red dress, and I had comments all day on how nice it looked as it stood out a little through all of the black and white. You can't see too much of it under the gown, but enough to feel I've, and you get to wear a cracking colour lipstick too!

The skirt is lovely, have a great day- you've earnt it!

KnobJockey congratulations! I do absolutely adore the skirt. It's not something I'd normally go for, but I saw it and was wowed. Hopefully it does stand out and I can swish across the stage Grin
