I am now on the hunt for a cropped boxy type top to pair with my blue skirt.</p> <p>I will shop my closet first though </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-finding-top-for-skirt#post-1515706 Mon, 06 Jul 2015 13:42:58 +0000 celia 1515706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would go for a more fitted shirt for this skirt. Are you comfortable tucking in tops ? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-finding-top-for-skirt#post-1515685 Mon, 06 Jul 2015 12:40:55 +0000 lyn67 1515685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kaftan type would not work, think will be too bulky. Short -cropped and boxy-would be very trendy of course, but if you &nbsp;are not that inclined, a tailored tee with some stretch would go also. Besides white, I would seek rather for low contrast with the skirt-or maybe a print containing the color of the skirt in it? But if you are dark haired, you can try black, too-esp if having a graphic on the front in that blue or some silver? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-finding-top-for-skirt#post-1515603 Mon, 06 Jul 2015 07:05:35 +0000 Maneera 1515603@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree with Brooklyn here. That skirt needs a short top - cropped and boxy will work if you dont want to tuck. Apart from coral and orange, red and yellow would look good too.&nbsp;</p> <p>I like the shape of #4 here on Angie's post:&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2011/02/23/emerging-trend-boxy-cropped-sweaters/">http://youlookfab.com/2011/02/.....-sweaters/</a></p> <p>You can also use the guidelines here -&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2013/10/04/ensemble-flared-skirt-with-cropped-pullover/">http://youlookfab.com/2013/10/.....-pullover/</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-finding-top-for-skirt#post-1515587 Mon, 06 Jul 2015 06:21:33 +0000 Brooklyn 1515587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Rubygirl. I would call that skirt a trumpet skirt rather than a tulip skirt. I think tulip skirts go out at the hip and then narrow at the knees. But what do I know :)</p> <p>I like the tops that you have chosen but I am not sure whether&nbsp;they will work for that type of skirt. I think they might be too long. You will end up with just a small section of skirt between the end of the top and where the skirt flares out. I think you need to style it like a pencil skirt, with a slightly boxy or drapey top that ends above or on the&nbsp;hip. I would think a wrap top would work or&nbsp;something with a&nbsp;high-low hem. An asymmetrical top might work.&nbsp;You don't have to tuck any of these. Along the lines of the tops shown in this post by Angie (see&nbsp;link below).&nbsp;</p> <p>In terms of colour, I think&nbsp;coral or anything in the orange family would work. White would be nice too.</p> <p>I hope this helps!</p> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2015/05/22/ensemble-drapey-top-ankle-pants-ankle-straps/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2015/05/.....le-straps/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-finding-top-for-skirt#post-1515491 Sun, 05 Jul 2015 23:23:34 +0000 Rubygirl 1515491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have this blue skirt I picked up a while ago at our local thrift store and have been looking for a top to style with it. I believe it is a tulip type skirt. I am not sure though. If anyone knows please let me know.</p> <p>I could not get a good picture of the skirt so I found two skirts with a similar hemline and length as this one.</p> <p>I have added a picture of my blue skirt to show the colour as best as I could get. It is picture #3.</p> <p>What colour and style top should I get. I do not think I will be tucking the top in Any help would be appreciated.</p> <p>All I have been able to find is a caftan type top in white or black. Photos of the two tops included as well as a shot of a model wearing the white one.</p> <p>Thank you in advance :)</p>
