Help me style this skirt shoes/boots/trainers

I’m stumped. I’m obsessed with trainers and have lovely orange ones that would go great but it’s too cold for just ankle socks (and I think it would look weird) but can I wear tights (nude?) with trainers or is that again weird?

Obviously I could wear knee boots with it - I have tan ones. I also have ankle boots in tan, ones in black. And calf length in clumpy white/biker boots in black too

I have every type of shoe but frankly I hate shoes and wear cool trainers with everything.

I will be wearing the skirt with an orange jumper

I'd go wool ankle socks possibly? Amazingly warm.

There's nothing wrong with tights and trainers (also a trainer person) but I am really enjoying socks having their moment! Tights and socks together?!

I think tan ankle boots would also look nice. Where's the skirt from?

Gorgeous skirt :) I have been doing opaques, socks and trainers with skirts atm and got a few compliments from women and the obligatory "aren't you eccentric?" comments from men 😂

It’s from Warehouse, via EBay and cheap as chips. I went for long wool cable patterned socks and platform brogues (got 5 compliments !)

thanks so much both, will try to be brave and wear trainers next Smile

That sounds great! Wool socks are the best. Stop me feeling so sad about summer ending.
