What colour goes with Coral??

DD had free range shopping for clothes today and we bought this skirt in a coral pink colour. But I've just realised that she doesn't have a top to go with it. What colour would you pick - apart from white??

I would say something else with warm tones - so a creamy colour, a paler peach which tones with it, or something like a warmish turquoise colour.

Cream, white, lemon yellow, pale turquoise. It looks gorgous BTW. I bought some coral beads from M+S (adult but no reason why a little lady couldn't wear them) last summer and lived in them, it's a great colour.

i would say it's more of a salmon pink than a coral.

Chocolate brown or khaki I would have said before I saw the picture but being as it is a skirt they might be a bit heavy.

Cream - I used to have a coral cardi & wore it with cream tousers & top.

that shade of pink looks lovely with khaki

I've got a grey and coral dress which is pretty.

Thanks for all your replies. Some good suggestions which I would never thought about. I managed to get something from Primark today - a twin pack of t-shirts one in the same colour and one lemon yellow and they both go really well with it.

dd had an orangy skirt and it looked great with hot pink and gold cardi. Sounds as if it shouldn't have worked but it did. I think if the colours are similarly strong, it looks good.
