FYI, but my skirt is a 6 petite, so I am guessing the equivalent of a 4. Not sure if that helps you regarding sizing. Let me know if you like it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-358454 Mon, 30 May 2011 15:59:42 +0000 Lisa 358454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Steph-Thanks! I just ordered it, there was only one size 2 left but I figure it's worth a shot. I have my fingers crossed it will work on me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-358449 Mon, 30 May 2011 15:50:36 +0000 Steph 358449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, you got good advice here for the white skirt, but I wanted to suggest a denim skirt I think might work for you. I purchased it during NAS last year, and I am pretty sure this skirt on Zappos is exactly the same: <a href="http://www.zappos.com/jag-jeans-emily-skirt-in-bowie-blue-bowie-blue" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/jag-jean.....bowie-blue</a></p> <p>It isn't a-line, but it isn't quite pencil either--it's pretty much a straight denim skirt. I have been wearing mine a lot this summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-358429 Mon, 30 May 2011 15:22:38 +0000 Lisa 358429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There is a lot of good advice here, thanks everybody! We have a sunny day today so I hope to check the sheerness in the sunlight later. (something I would not have thought about).</p> <p>I also picked up one pair each of the Shimera and Felina boyshorts to see which works better for me. They are currently on sale 3 for $33 is anyone is interested in either brand.</p> <p>I'll report back on how I make it later on. Thanks again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-358349 Mon, 30 May 2011 07:58:04 +0000 suzanne 358349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nude undies and a short slip (irritating perhaps, but a good modesty protector!) Oh and another piece of advice: choose man made fiber if you are going to layer like this – cotton rides up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-358174 Sun, 29 May 2011 22:13:35 +0000 nicoleb 358174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If a skirt/dress already has a lining (even it's a rather flimsy one) i wear nude underwear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-358173 Sun, 29 May 2011 22:10:13 +0000 Di 358173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like to um...cover my bases, so to speak, so I wear both nude knickers AND a nude slip. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-358017 Sun, 29 May 2011 15:03:28 +0000 Angie 358017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning skirt! </p> <p>I'd wear my little nude Shimera boy shorts with them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357981 Sun, 29 May 2011 13:28:30 +0000 Scarlet 357981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the same issue as Shiny with boyshorts, although bikinis would work with the A-line. With a white pencil skirt I wear Spanx biker shorts, but sized up so that they are not tight. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357963 Sun, 29 May 2011 08:26:50 +0000 Irene 357963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, that's such such such a beautiful skirt!!!!!!!!!!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357958 Sun, 29 May 2011 08:00:24 +0000 Lyrebirdgully 357958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Lisa, gorgeous A-line skirt, love the construction and the arrowhead pattern!<br /> Make sure before you wear this skirt out that you do the sunlight test: ie. you stand in the sun and get someone to stand on the shady side of you, to check how much of your legs can be seen through the skirt.<br /> Poor Lady Diana (before she was Princess ) was tricked by a photographer into allowing herself to be filmed from this angle while she was wearing a thin cotton skirt:<br /> <a href="http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRZYqkWumxuO337gsfPbFWd3-sr44xsOePORx6Glow0xE_YEpsG" rel="nofollow">http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q.....w0xE_YEpsG</a><br /> [If there's no direct sunlight, you could do this test indoors in the daytime with a lamp shining directly behind you.]<br /> If you find that the skirt reveals too much leg in these circumstances, look for a nude cotton halfslip - it will be much cooler than a synthetic one. ( You will still need to wear the nude undies):<br /> <a href="http://www.everythingcotton.com.au/images/uploads/Petticoats.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.everythingcotton.co.....icoats.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357953 Sun, 29 May 2011 07:03:06 +0000 AJ 357953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wear a nude slip with my white a-line skirt. Slips don't bother me since a-line skirts are pretty breezy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357900 Sun, 29 May 2011 02:27:45 +0000 sarah 357900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa - I'm guessing Angie will recommend the Shimera nude boyshorts, since that's what are in her store. On her recommendation, I now exclusively wear these, and the nude ones are great under white jeans and skirts.</p> <p>ETA: bear in mind that I am a rectangle with next to no butt, so Sparky's advice may work better for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357891 Sun, 29 May 2011 02:02:47 +0000 Sparky 357891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, FWIW I can't wear proper boyshorts ~ or, I should say, I have yet to find a pair of boyshorts that fit me well and are comfortable. They tend to roll/ride up on my thighs and just don't work (I'm pearish with curvy thighs). The Shimera ones you linked to are one of Angie's favorites and are in her store, IIRC. Those didn't work for me. But the Felina ones, which are really hipsters in my mind, do work for me (hipsters in general work for me), and I happen to have those Felina ones in fawn (or whatever the nude color is called ~ I got mine at last year's NAS) and they are one of my go-to's for light colored bottoms. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357890 Sun, 29 May 2011 02:02:46 +0000 elpgal 357890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, depends on where the bottom seam hits. I'd go for the second one to be sure. I have several of these and can vouch for their comfort. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357888 Sun, 29 May 2011 02:02:08 +0000 Debora 357888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a great summer skirt! Don't rule out Angie's suggestion of sizing up on the pencil skirt, though, if you really have your heart set on a denim one too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357887 Sun, 29 May 2011 02:00:08 +0000 Lisa 357887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Debora-I think this skirt is a much better choice than the pencil one. Hopefully more dark wash skirts will come out for fall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357886 Sun, 29 May 2011 01:59:12 +0000 Debora 357886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always wear nude undergarments under white, too. Love the skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357881 Sun, 29 May 2011 01:55:13 +0000 Lisa 357881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sparky-We are thinking alike. I was hoping the answer wasn't going to be a slip, too much additional material. Now I have to figure out what a boyshort is, see response to Angie above. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357880 Sun, 29 May 2011 01:54:10 +0000 Lisa 357880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie-Something like <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/felina-sublime-boyshorts-buy-save/2973503?origin=keywordsearch&amp;resultback=456">these in fawn</a> or <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/shimera-seamless-boyshorts-buy-save/2880790?origin=keywordsearch&amp;resultback=456">these in nude</a>? They both say boyshorts but one is much longer on the leg than the other. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357879 Sun, 29 May 2011 01:51:48 +0000 Sparky 357879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>With white bottoms of any sort, I go for nude color underwear. I would try that first and see how it looks. For a summer skirt you're likely to wear during hotter weather, I'd try to stay away from adding another layer with a slip. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357877 Sun, 29 May 2011 01:50:39 +0000 Angie 357877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nude boy shorts </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-skirt-undergarment#post-357875 Sun, 29 May 2011 01:49:36 +0000 Lisa 357875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Well my potential dark pencil skirt did not work out <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-and-a-lot-of-booty">from this post</a>. But I learned a LOT of new information for the next round of pencil skirt shopping.</p> <p>Until then, I picked up <a href="http://www.anntaylor.com/catalog/product.jsp?productId=32581&amp;N=1200010&amp;pCategoryId=3939&amp;categoryId=185&amp;Ns=CATEGORY_SEQ_185&amp;loc=TN&amp;defaultColor=White&amp;defaultSizeType=Regular">this a-line skirt instead</a>, which has no booty issues. :)</p> <p>It's white, lined and yet I can still see my hand through the material.</p> <p>What do I wear underneath?</p> <p>A skirt slip? Boyshorts?</p> <p>And what color?</p> <p>In white? In nude? </p> <p>Thanks! </p>
