Meaning, do you have pieces in your closet to pair it with? Is it such a specialty item that you feel you can only wear it for a special occasion? If you can see it as a wardrobe workhorse, then buy it. However, if it's just the green color you are drawn to, then get the navy and buy a scarf or other accessory (A purse would be fun!) in that same green color.</p> <p>If you do choose to buy it in green, then do not leave the store without buying at least one top that goes well with it. (I think I remember a post of Angie's somewhere touting that advice.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-toss-a-coin-green-or-navy#post-488512 Thu, 15 Dec 2011 05:56:07 +0000 Amy 488512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy is so smart. I'd do exactly what she says, if I were in your shoes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-toss-a-coin-green-or-navy#post-488483 Thu, 15 Dec 2011 04:31:43 +0000 Anonymous 488483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote get the green. It's still a classic skirt but with a twist because of the color. For the navy, I'd watch for a great navy skirt suit so that there would be a navy pencil skirt to wear many ways and a navy blazer/jacket to also wear many ways; and you would have a suit when one is needed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-toss-a-coin-green-or-navy#post-488477 Thu, 15 Dec 2011 04:18:14 +0000 afterism 488477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Trying on things last night &amp; I came across a gorgeous pencil skirt. First I tried the Green &amp; I still love it, then the SA came out with the same skirt in Navy.</p> <p>I prefer the green but it would predominantly be worn to work (PA to a Financial Planner) so I keep thinking that the navy is more appropriate. </p> <p>I really am torn. I considered getting both but I am worried one of them just won't get worn.</p> <p>Thoughts, tips on choosing or sympathy all readily accepted.</p> <p>PS. Nil pics available online &amp; I didn't take any when I was in the change room. </p>
