Okay, so based on Nanashi’s suggestion I tried the skirt on with flats, and un-tucked my shirt (I tried it with the JP tunic, but it just added so much bulk…) and I think I do like it better. I’m going to keep working with it and trying new things – I loved all of your feedback, thank you so much – I’m starting to feel like maybe I can do a little bit more with my outfits, and branch out a bit experimenting with proportion & shape.
What do you think? do you like today’s look better? Or neither?
I like it! You can also add some accessories around the neckline to add color, too. I think the sandal makes it more casual and let the skirt stand out more. Nice summer look!
thanks so much for the ideas!! i’ll be working more with it and trying out some new things – i’m inspired now 🙂
I like it, but I still think I like the way that “tucked in” accentuates your tiny waist. But how about a heel, not too high, and not a “chunky” platform–maybe something 3″ high and no ankle strap–very elongating to the leg. Just a suggestion…
