And thanks to smittie and Maneera for the pictures! Maneera, I'm so grateful for the pictures to help with styling... I think it'll make all the difference to jazz up the rest of the outfit to make it look like I know what I'm doing despite my insecurities around wearing skirts again. Thanks so much! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-line-skirt-with-boots#post-1589516 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 04:22:10 +0000 Maneera 1589516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First off, A line midi skirts are great for winters. And I highly recommend dark tights (preferably ones that match the shoes). It's hard to feel fabulous when you're cold! </p> <p>You could wear both flat boots and heeled boots. I've seen a lot of women wear tall boots with midis, but both high shaft booties as well as low booties will work as long as the skirt, tights and boots are in similar colors. </p> <p>The other option could be to wear the skirt with black tights and match your shoes to your sweater. You could even match your shoes to your hair to bookend. </p> <p>Here are some inspirational pics to help you with proportions and styling. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-line-skirt-with-boots#post-1589508 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 03:50:22 +0000 abc 1589508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto what smittie said! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-line-skirt-with-boots#post-1589504 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 03:37:13 +0000 Anonymous 1589504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like midi dresses with heels. I think dark hose would be fine for winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-line-skirt-with-boots#post-1589450 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 01:20:17 +0000 lamireille 1589450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This could be the most basic question ever asked, but I've lived in pants and jeans for a couple of years, so I am WAY out of practice with skirts. I would love to resuscitate a black midcalf knit silk-and-cashmere skirt that I found in the depths of my closet. It has a little flare at the bottom and a nice drape. I tried it on with 2.5-inch black boots and it just looked weird because the flare was so high off the ground, then I tried it on with ballet flats and it looked totally unoriginal (when in doubt, ballet flats...). Also... black tights or no? Bare legs look odd in the winter, but then I *really* don't know what footwear works because ballet flats are too dainty for tights. Aren't they?</p> <p>I love this skirt (I'm too short for a maxi, too old for a mini, and at-the-knee skirts make me look and feel stumpy), but I just can't make it look good once I start adding the fancy touches... like shoes. I can't figure out what would look good on top, either. (I'm a mess!)</p> <p>This is so silly of me. What could be more basic than a black skirt?--but I can't figure out how to make use of it. Thanks so much for any advice! </p>
