Hi all,

Can you please help me find a top that will go with this skirt please? I really love this skirt but am finding it hard to find something to go with it.

I am planning on wearing black boots with it for an afternoon Christmas tea. So thinking of something that isn’t night out dressy but not too casual either. I’m only 5ft 1 too so don’t suit anything baggy/oversized. Ideally something that would sit on my hips I think but open to any ideas! Thank you all so much, all suggestions gratefully appreciated.

xx

Black or black/white fleck short high neck jumper

I have the M&S black sparkly wrap top at £25 (sorry, I don't know how to link) and wore it with their similar skirt in gold. Felt dressy but not overly so as the sparkle is minimal and the wrap sits high up.

@Neeko , you can copy and paste a link.

The way they have styled it on the website isn’t very good imo. I would style with a nice black jumper probably with a thin thermal underneath.

Franticbutterfly · 20/11/2023 08:17

A chunky cream knit with a cowl neck.

I like these black knits from H & M...

I've just ordered a very similar skirt from H and M! Also looking for ideas for tops.

dancemom · 20/11/2023 08:29

I would wear a cropped or waist length fitted cream or white jumper

lkclayton · 20/11/2023 09:20

Hi skirt is gorgeous - some great and very reasonable options at George Asda - depending on dressing up\ down or occassion and some great ones at Mint Velvet too!

Whataretheodds · 20/11/2023 09:21

Plain t shirt and a chunky knit over the top

Neeko · 20/11/2023 17:21

I have a similar M&S one in gold and I style it with a black satin shirt, a thin black tank top and black knee boots. It’s lovely to wear.

A neat, fitted, fine-knit black jumper would look good. Zara often stock such things.
