I would say if nothing springs to mind, do you really need it? It looks a bit clowny to me, sorry!

I would go for ballet chic vibes with this - maybe with a leotard type top eg this one (the pic this link preview shows is the wrong colour - click link to see actual colour) and ballet flats.

Type ballet chic into Google images for more inspo.

I love it by the way!

Either a black, close-fitting top, or a plain close-fitting top in one of the colours of the skirt. It would look nice with a wide belt.

Something quite slimline than you can tuck in, or something that stops at the waist (slightly cropped) so it doesn't poof out and make you look enormous

I think it's quite cute really. I think you could get away with a jumper in any of the colours from the skirt for everyday - or black would work. for an 8 year old I think it would work well with tights and boots.

Just a basic fitted black top or waist length black jumper will look great!

Ok so scratch what I said then. In that case, she could wear it with anything since she’s 8! Any top and footwear she happens to fancy that day. That’s the joy and freedom of being 8 after all.
