What can I wear it with? (December 2003 - March 2010)

[aris]

this is a Marchesa
INDIGO NIGHTS GOWN, mui mui gold clutch and a Roberto Cavalli
SNAKE BANGLEfrom my theresa
having in mind that the shoes are black - I wouldn't wear bright colours

 

[thinkbelove]

are black leggings under shorts ok or should you only do black tights?

 

[GasolineRainbow]

^It's a personal preference, both can work. You may have noticed there are a lot of leggings haters on TFS, but don't let that deter you if you like them. If you do opt for leggings, I would suggest ones that end at the ankles, not below the knees.

^^
I agree with that...

 

[thinkbelove]

black tights are better? lol

 

[aris]

I personaly would never wear shorst - except for the beach and that said I'd never ever wear then with leggins, or tights - it just contradictary in substance
it means to me - I want to wear shorts, but I don't dare showing my legs...

The picture doesn't show the bottom of Drew's dress, but your heels are so classic, I think they would complement just about every dress.

Just thought they look...office-ish? I mean the shoes? If they go, I'm going to wear them. Don't want to buy a new one if that will do.

Thanks

I get what you mean by office-ish, sometimes those kinds of shoes have a stodgy look about them, but yours look delicately constructed and sexy. Again, Drew's dress would definitely go with your shoes. I prefer classic pumps to strappy heels and the "tough" shoe trend (though I like those too), they're just so elegant.

Thank you! Should I wear sheer black stockings?

 

[lemonadensnickrs]

Thank you for the great suggestions in response to my last question! I need help with another top. What bottoms go with this?

 

[thinkbelove]

skinny or bootcut jeans and big jewelry. i have a shirt almost exactly like that!

 

[GasolineRainbow]

Thank you! Should I wear sheer black stockings?

Sure, that's another classic. I also like nude fishnets for a neutral look. And opaque tights in black or a color that complements the dress are a modern approach.

The Who What Wear blog once did a feature on styling tiered skirts. Google "Tiered Skirts WhoWhatWear", as I'm not sure I'm allowed to post full links to other sites here. Also found on stylelist.com:

• For starters, make sure the skirt is above the knee.
• Know that these add additional volume to the hip area. But don't be deterred. This version of a tiered skirt can be a great camouflage if you cinch at the waist.
• Since it is so soft and feminine pair it with something bold and modern.
• Balance the flounce with structure elsewhere.
Some good pairing options are:
• All those killer shoe boots floating around out there.
• A soft, simple racerback tank.
• A shell.
• A graphic or art print.

A graphic-print and/or structured shirt contrasting with the softness of the skirt sounds like it would look great. For a gentler but still unusual styling idea, I think both floral and tiered skirts (no less a combination of the two) look good when they play peekaboo under other skirts or long shirts. Inspiration:

karlascloset.blogspot.com Karla's shirt-dress picks up on the navy in the floral pattern, and follows the shape of the skirt, sort of like an added tier. You could also select a contrasting color, if you're feeling bold.

I think that outfit is cute, but a bit too trendy trendy (for my taste). It depends the event, what you going to, etc. But I think it would look great with a simple l/s black shirt (playing off the black at the bottom and top of the skirt), slicked back hair/ponytail, and some big jewelry. That way you are balancing the frills and shortness of the skirt with something more sedate. If a l/s shirt is too warm for you, than i agree a tucked in raceback tank is fun (plus maybe a belt to define your waist), perhaps with some bangles on each arm (or just one simple bangle to go against trend). Same slicked back hair (which I think works well against the whimsy of the skirt). It's very cute - great purchase

Hi there,

I want to buy a pair of these boots:



What could I wear them with besides jeans? Would they look weird with a skirt?

IMO ropers do look strange worn with skirts. Perhaps with a skirt on the long side they'd be OK ...

 

[GasolineRainbow]

Meg, do you mean long/short by l/s? Really like the idea of sleek pulled-up hair with the frilly skirt.
