Will these shoes go with this skirt?

I have notoriously bad style sense so was hoping you kind mumsnetters would help me out a bit. I have bought this skirt and was looking at these shoes to go with it. Do you think this would look ok?

Depends, what else are you wearing with it?

Very 'scooby doo', is it a 70's party?

Well the skirt is so...short ....and the shoes are so......clumpy

What's the occasion?

The skirt is not to bad on. Sort of just above knee. I was just really unsure of which shoes to wear with it.

IS it for everyday or going out?

There's not really any big occasion but every fortnight DP and I go out with some friends for the early evening and I just wanted some clothes that were less frumpy than I wear now.

They will go if you have fab legs.

I could wear it for sucking cock not for public viewing, but I am old with dodgy legs.

I think you could do a lot better than those shoes. They are faux leather for starters. What top are you wearing with that skirt?

DSM · 07/04/2009 20:15

Yeah, we really need to know about the top plan. And, what colour of tights you intend to go for. Black might be a bit harsh with baby pink, I would maybe suggest grey.

I've got a nice white shirt to go with it.

Toiletroll the more I look at that skirt the worse it gets I'm afraid. It looks like something a 9 year old girl would wear. Why not get a dress, or wear jeans and a nice top?

DSM · 07/04/2009 20:17

I really don't think that skirt and a white shirt is going to look nice. Sorry.

twinsetandpearls · 07/04/2009 20:19

ToiletRollCover is this not more you?

mrsmaidamess · 07/04/2009 20:20

Wear the white tee shirt, nice dark denim jeans and a jacket like this

with chunky navy or red beads and wedges.

omg, I didn't know Paris Hilton was a MN'er !!

bloody vile, sorry

mrsmaidamess · 07/04/2009 20:21

Oh you said white shirt. I read t shirt. White shirt no good with that blazer

The outfit Maidamess suggested would be really nice. With ballet pumps or heels. But not the heels you linked to.

twinsetandpearls · 07/04/2009 20:23

Lovely shape on that blazer

Oh bugger. I'm glad I checked. I've always worn stuff a bit like this to go out before the DC but I've only just started going out again properly and find myself more aware of how other people percieve me.

I think I might toddle into New Look tomorrow and have a look at that stripey blazer meself.

mrsmaidamess · 07/04/2009 20:24

TOILETROLLCOVER you must check with us before you go out again. Ok?? Now get to New Look.
