That is one way I would wear pink as I'm not keen on having it near my face. Perhaps it would be a good change from white or black to incorporate coloured shoes.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />@cat 2 - I haven't tried blush.&nbsp; I know I can wear dark plum.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />@kkards - I love those pictures.&nbsp; I was thinking I couldn't get away with sneakers but I'm going to try it.&nbsp; I think the denim jacket would enable me to lighten it so I could bookend with lighter sneakers.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />@Tanya I have a warmer moto jacket and I think this material is such that I could wear the skirt all year round.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />@Angie I just checked what a square tie looks like and Jonesy I had to look up welted top.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228671 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 16:26:50 +0000 Jonesy 2228671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fabulous skirt for you--love it! My two cents re. styling this: I would go with a welted top or a slightly cropped boxy top that comes to your hips. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228663 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 16:15:26 +0000 kellygirl 2228663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Soo cute and agreeing with the suggestions above. My fave is 5! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228662 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 15:54:46 +0000 Anonymous 2228662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome new skirt! I also think a graphic tee, sneakers and moto or sleeveless jean jacket could work for styling.

And I agree that the tops looks better tucked or tied. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228642 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 13:58:23 +0000 Angie 2228642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute skirt! Fab with the shoes. I like #3 and #4 best! Try a square knot when you tie the shirt at the waist. </p> <p>And what Tanya said. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228625 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 13:25:31 +0000 Tanya 2228625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous skirt!&nbsp; I agree that it would look great with simple knits and graphic tees.&nbsp; To me, it also begs for a leather moto jacket, and stompy boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228618 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 12:53:02 +0000 RobinF 2228618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very pretty skirt! I like all your versions but my least favorite is the untucked one - I think it is just too long. Love it with the jean jacket and the white shirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228609 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 11:31:46 +0000 kkards 2228609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love tulle skirts! And this one if fab….i do think this would look great with sneakers!<br />&nbsp;I love the version with the denim jacket, and that got me thinking about swapping out the white shirt in #4 for a denim shirt. Also have you tried the white shirt open but layered over a fitted singlet (i think I’ve used the correct term, in the US we call it a tank top) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228607 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 11:26:13 +0000 Anonymous 2228607@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the skirt! Fitted sleeveless tops are my go to with flowy skirts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228604 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 11:14:49 +0000 April 2228604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, love the skirt, Sally!&nbsp; Just beautiful.&nbsp; Agreeing with Star about a graphic tee -- it offsets the sweetness of a tulle skirt in a pleasing way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228601 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 09:41:11 +0000 cat2 2228601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about a blush colored top, rather than pink? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228597 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 09:14:02 +0000 Star (Lise) 2228597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this skirt!&nbsp; I have a slightly similar one that is a favourite.&nbsp; &nbsp;I wear it with black or metallic footwear only.&nbsp; I like the top with the waist band.&nbsp; I would wear it like that or with an untucked t-shirt/blouse but&nbsp; not as long as your untucked one, but not cropped either IFYKWIM.&nbsp; &nbsp;I tend to wear darker tops with mine, black or a black graphic T.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228596 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 09:02:56 +0000 Jenni NZ 2228596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is such a beautiful skirt Sally. I love it.<br /> Now I know you like juxtaposition much more than I do, and our styles vary. I think a pale pink shoe and maybe top would be stunning. I have these pale pink leather sneakers… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228586 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 08:27:23 +0000 Sally 2228586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>@ slimcat</b> - good points about the necklace or pendant.&nbsp; I don't think about things like that.&nbsp; I wonder if a long scarf would work as I am more likely to wear it.&nbsp; I will look for the post by Angie about the tops.&nbsp; Thanks.&nbsp;<br /><b>@lozz_oz</b> I can't see any silver...they are varying shades of pink and plum.&nbsp; I could wear plum near my face but I'm not usually a wearer of pink.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /><b>@bijou.</b> Thank you for the suggestions.&nbsp; I do have zara near me.&nbsp; At the moment we are in lockdown so I couldn't get to the shop but I'll see if they are available online.&nbsp; I am about 167 cms tall so it probably wouldn't be so cropped on me either.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228580 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 07:40:02 +0000 Bijou 2228580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a beautiful skirt on you. I am not sure if you have Zara where you live, but they make my favourite basic knits, I recently bought this light green one for spring, which I wear tucked into skirts. The other item I bought from Zara is this cropped white shirt - which is not so cropped on me (I am 165cm tall) and so it is a nice top to wear with skirts and no tucking required. Both of these are available on the Zara Australia website. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228575 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 07:08:12 +0000 lozz_oz 2228575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It’s a great skirt! Are the flowers pale pink and silver? Tucked in tops of those colours will work too, if you like those colours near your face. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228572 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 06:52:18 +0000 slim cat 2228572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very pretty tulle skirt - lovely print and shape! I prefer tucked version and love it with denim jacket. White blouse works well too .<br />Untucked tops need some focal point higher - like necklace/pendant &nbsp;- to balance the proportions ( or banded top like @Angie showed before ).&nbsp;Looking forward to more outfits with your new addition!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tentative-step-into-tulle#post-2228566 Fri, 01 Oct 2021 06:34:49 +0000 Sally 2228566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was looking enviously at others wearing their tulle skirts and found this one online.&nbsp; Its tulle panelled and I do like the wide waistband.&nbsp; &nbsp;I really want to make it work.&nbsp; It seems to work better tucked in than with the shirt loose because of the waistband. I tried tying the white blouse.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />pic 1 with singlet.&nbsp; showing waistband<br />pic 2 untucked shirt<br />pic 3 tucked shirt<br />pic 4 white blouse<br />pic 5 tucked shirt with denim jacket.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />I think with this new love of skirts, I need to find some nice woven tops as blouses don't work with skirts as well.&nbsp; &nbsp;Any ideas on the best ways to style it.&nbsp; I don't think this would work with sneakers but am looking for some more black boots as I get a lot of wear out of my brown ones.&nbsp; The ones here are old ones from the cupboard.&nbsp; </p>
