A Very Difficult Skirt


Awhile back, I purchased this skirt.........

windsor.com

But I hadn't worn it as I was stumped on how it should be styled.  I tried it with a black top, and it looked terrible.

So to Pinterest I went......







Maybe this skirt wasn't so difficult.  

A simple white top never entered my mind.  I could do that..........


And stripes?  Insane!!!  But if the stripes matched.....


The whole mixing patterns thing is a little out of my comfort zone, even though I like it on other folks.

Tell me people.  Which would you wear.....

Basic or bold?

  3. Both are super cute! The white is classic, of course, but the stripes add a bit of spunk to the outfit :)

  4. Because I'm boring, I'd probably wear the white, but I do really like how the stripes look with that skirt. Go bold! :)

  24. I love all the ways, but, dare I say, I would pair it with a turquoise or teal top. Oohhhh...

  25. Well I for one am going to thank you for all the Pinterest pics because I have the same skirt. And its still hanging on my clothing rack with the tags still on it. I loved it but once it came I also felt like I didnt know what to do with it. I appreciate this post:)

  26. What a great skirt! And I'm glad you mentioned a basic white tee because I always overlook that option too, but it's perfect for full skirts. Personally, I sort of think of stripes as a neutral that you can mix with other prints. Great job!

  27. I would wear either choice! I just tried pattern mixing this past week for the very first time. I was nervous, but didn't do anything crazy and had pieces that were similar colors like you did. Go for it! :)
