I recently purchased this skirt
in an effort to break out of my knee length skirt comfort zone. It's about mid-thigh length and has pockets, which means I pretty much automatically love it (because of the pockets, not the length, short=scary!), but I can't decide what to wear with it. I initially purchased it thinking I would wear it with the boots my husband bought me for my birthday
and bright/pattered or navy tights? But I also bought some adorable navy blue satin flats that are an option as well. I just have no idea what to put on top.
What would you pair with this skirt?










I'm distracted. Please tell me more about those boots!

I am no fashionista...but with the black boots, I would wear a white or ivory sweater or sweater set. The waistband looks pretty wide, which usually hides MY sins, so I might even wear something that I would tuck in. So, something "safe".
With the navy flats, I would wear a brightly colored cardigan, like lime green, mustard, or salmon-colored. Something POPPING.

It's hard to tell what the material is like, but it's a versatile print. You could wear the boots with the skirt and something white cotton/knit up top for a more "country girl" look. With the flats, you could play with the tribal-ness of the pattern and wear something like a soft sweater in pretty much any color and top it off with bolder accessories.

I like yellow or pink with blue - perhaps in a fitted sweater? Or a jacket - perhaps in a bold color? It's a great skirt and I love those shoes!

Love the boots or flats - on top, I'd suggest a white top (button down, tank, whatever) with a brightly colored cardigan (hot pink, bright blue, yellow, whatever). Very preppy and very cute!
