(Adds outfit to Stylebook).

I understand why it might be difficult. I had a pair of lilac culottes -- not even as dressy as this skirt -- but they always felt hard to style because they seemed too "girly" for me.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-skirt-and-chelsea-boots#post-2258954 Tue, 12 Apr 2022 16:29:26 +0000 Lana 2258954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Brooklyn</b>,your skirt is so pretty! I feel like mine is really girly especially with a ruffle plus the lilac pink color. The fabric is soft and chiffon like so feels dressy. I feel like I need some other dressy element to connect it to the outfit but my lifestyle is very casual. I don’t wear pumps or strappy heels. I think with a feminine top I can add some masculine or casual elements like boots and a moto. When Angie said wear heels or tailored boots a lightbulb went off in my brain. </p> <p>Thank you <b>Jaime</b> and <b>Zaeobi</b>! I love the mole color — it’s a perfect cool brown. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-skirt-and-chelsea-boots#post-2258925 Tue, 12 Apr 2022 12:42:31 +0000 Brooklyn 2258925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE these! And I love it that the boots are almost flat. Modern.</p> <p>Why do you find the skirt hard to style? Is it the frill or the split or both? (Or something else?) I ask because I have a skirt with a similar shape. I love love love the colour and pattern but something about the silhouette (which is similar to yours) feels difficult. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-skirt-and-chelsea-boots#post-2258897 Tue, 12 Apr 2022 04:54:08 +0000 Zaeobi 2258897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a beautiful skirt - what a breezily flattering shape, with the romantic flounces! </p> <p>I like the off the shoulder jumper too - a cross between a bardot &amp; wrap neckline? That sort of medium taupe/ mole brown colour suits you well </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-skirt-and-chelsea-boots#post-2258889 Tue, 12 Apr 2022 00:42:17 +0000 Jaime 2258889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I especially like it with the darker jacket but the lighter jacket and lighter boots sounds great too.

Maybe the pearl grey wedge boots with the tweed jacket? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-skirt-and-chelsea-boots#post-2258867 Mon, 11 Apr 2022 20:57:52 +0000 Lana 2258867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks <b>Missvee</b>, I’ll try that! &nbsp;Pewter or light gray would work really well here and adding a silver bracelet is a good idea with the pewter boots. All of the sudden I have more options with this skirt.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-skirt-and-chelsea-boots#post-2258866 Mon, 11 Apr 2022 20:44:14 +0000 missvee 2258866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love how you’ve taken the inspiration photo and created excellent outfits that are unique to your own style. Have you tried the pewter Chelsea boots from outfit #1 with outfit #2? I think they would add a bit of shine as a counterpoint to the tweed jacket. Maybe a silver bracelet too instead of the gunmetal? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-skirt-and-chelsea-boots#post-2258863 Mon, 11 Apr 2022 20:14:44 +0000 Lana 2258863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you <b>SF, CG, slimcat, Rachylou , Cat2!</b></p> <p><b>Angie</b>, I have some pearl gray combat boots and some bone suede wedge booties, snakeskin booties, plus knee high bone boots which I’ve never worn.

I especially like the second one; that jacket is stunning on you and looks fab with the skirt.
