I want to wear a strappy top with this skirt but unsure of what colour. The band at the waist is black so was thinking black but is this too boring?. Also which shoes? I have kitten heels or high heels. I'll be wearing on a night out. Thankyou!

Black would look lovely. What about a rusty orange, or a mustard yellow depending on your colouring?
It’s a beautiful skirt

Lovely skirt. I would go for a strappy, slinky vest in nude or pale pink for contrast.

And low nude heels would be ideal. High heels are so over Wink

Oh yes a nude top would be nice. I only have black kitten heels. Didn't really want to buy new shoes as well 😣

Id go for a dull gold call I think and mid to high heels. I normally wear ultra high heels but this could do with lower ones. Due to the lengthy of the skirt. It could make legs look short depending on height. Again dull gold sandals in my opinion.
Nice flowy skirt by the way.

TheVandalsTookTheHandles · 13/08/2019 10:05

Thankyou for the suggestions. I will take the skirt with me into town later and look for nude, pale pink or orangy tops 😁

Call translates as cami

TheVandalsTookTheHandles · 13/08/2019 10:06

Amd yes it is a lovely skirt. Suprised myself by buying it actually. Not something I would usually go for.

Oh yes GlamGiraffe gold would look good. Yes it is a very swishy skirt. Makes me feel quite grown up! (I'm 44 Hmm )

Yellow
Orange

Wow love the colour of the skirt. Yeah as already said..orange/rust, mustards or nudes.

managedmis · 13/08/2019 12:13

Omg I LOVE that skirt! Beautiful colour.

I love the blouse that the model is wearing too.

managedmis · 13/08/2019 12:14

It looks fab with the slouch boots too

CountFosco · 13/08/2019 12:44

Gorgeous skirt. A black top will look good but agree mustard or nude would also look lovely, a grey band tshirt would look good if you are going more casual. I'd wear flats, probably trainers or ankle boots, but if you're wearing a colourful top then black shoes to match the waistband are a good idea.

ZaZathecat · 13/08/2019 19:37

Burnt orange or a dark jewelly green spring to mind.

FyEnwiYwLucy · 13/08/2019 19:42

Personally, I'd put this with a plain white t shirt and white trainers.

FyEnwiYwLucy · 13/08/2019 19:44

Really not a fan of it paired with them boots, though

onanothertrain · 13/08/2019 21:11

I'd try a light - mid grey. Love the skirt, gorgeous colour.

Lucked · 13/08/2019 21:30

Magenta for me. I have a lovely magenta cashmere jumper that would lovely with that skirt in winter so now I want it but I have too many ‘fancy’ clothes when I only go out a couple of times a year.

Stormwhale · 13/08/2019 21:32

I think I would take inspiration from a peacocks feather. Any colour from that would look wonderful.

TheVandalsTookTheHandles · 14/08/2019 10:07

Well I bought a kind of goldy colour top but also a black one in case I think the gold one is a bit much on the day! Thanks for all the suggestions xx I like the look of the skirt with high heels but I know that flats are the thing to wear so I'll probably compromise with kitten heels 😁
