i need a top to go with this skirt . can anyone find me one ? i don't want to return it as i like it ( feel all floaty and fairy like in my deluded head !) and i already own nude shoes which i'm hoping will be ok .

would be very grateful :)

should have said , its for a wedding !

This is why i don’t do skirts only dresses I would not be able to style that. Whereas you just chuck in
A dress and go
🙈

Plain black or nude silk camisole?

How about a silk cami?
Something like these...

Can’t do links, sorry, but the Boden Dakota top is nice.

cami's look like a possibility . i'll freeze though won't i ? i'll check out Boden too thanks

What about a nude or cream bodysuit? You could go for a sleeve then, maybe a wrap style?

Cream cami and a blush/rose coloured jacket?

It's beautiful but seems very expensive. Then again, if you love it then you should definitely not return it!

I have just bought this top, I would wear it tucked in to the skirt, with a jacket that toned with the skirt, probably navy.

A very fine knit - polo neck or short sleeve sweater depending on weather

it is waaay more expensive than i would normally spend but it just spoke to me
if nothing works i will return it and buy a dress .

Oh I love that skirt, gorgeous. Red might work, if it's not an orangey red, or navy. I'd go for a short/slim camisole I think. Nude colour would work but a bit all-over pastel imho (you might want that look!).

I hate skirts for this very reason! And I’ve done the same, found a gorgeous one I couldn’t resist! Quite similar to yours!

For casual, I’m going to do a half tuck grey T-shirt
For summer holiday day, a white vest top
For going out a fine knit jumper (lonely or ruby if nz)

Good luck, it’s gorgeous!

That skirt is beautiful, but I'm not sure it would work for a wedding. It looks fab with a T-shirt and trainers, but I think smart shoes and a cami would make it look a bit frumpy and old fashioned (sorry!). Can you keep it and get something else? You'd get loads of wear out if it if you kept it for casual, it would look great with a denim or biker jacket, trainers or boots.

Orangey silk camisole type thing was what I was thinking?

But that is a ruthless skirt - pretty but I couldn’t make it look good unless I was slim hipped & nipped of waist.

I think I'd want to style it with two close-fitted tops, the top one sheer but with sleeves, so your arms are visible, and one for modesty. If you could pick up two of the colours in the skirt, it would read as an outfit.

I would wear it with a white t shirt but one that looks a less casual than the one it’s styled with in the link and pair it with a chunky statement necklace.

Agree with the fine knit suggestion - and I'd go for black and then wear with boots.

I don't know what your colouring is, but would something like https://www.whistles.com/women/clothing/knitwear/square-neck-knit-30106.html?cgid=KnitwearClothinggWW&dwvarsquare-neck-knit-301066color=NUDE#start=0 Whistles knit]] work? They do it on wine too, it's difficult to see the colours of the print on the screen.

How about something like this:

No no no to that top. Very fine knit in cream or blush, or pick out the darker colour. It’s a beautiful skirt, but no more frills and furbelows. Leather jacket would also be good or something a bit 70s in fat cord.
