Hi, all -- I'm a fan of yoked skirts because I like the way they keep the fullness away from the midsection. I currently own 4, one purchased in 2023, one bought last fall, and two bought this year.
I would like some help styling this one. It is from Massimo Dutti and it appealed to me because it reminded me of some matchstick skirts I had in the 90s, because it will travel well, because it has a lovely cotton lining (so it will be cool), and because I thought the colour work work well with my new pink denim jacket. It looks really fab in motion -- lots of swish!
They call the colour "pale pink" but in real life, it is a sort of muddy rose. Here, I've thrown it together wiith everything I could think of trying. Warning: the colours are all a bit off due to the light situation. I did my best.
Questions:
- Which looks do you prefer?
- Which footwear do you prefer and do you have any other suggestions? I fear the cream fisherman's sandals may have to go because the leather is just so stiff and scratchy -- I have not broken them in with a year of wear. If I have to let these go I would like to replace with another cream or white sandal of some kind.
Pics 1-4. I don't own a true sweatshirt but this is my version of the sweatshirt and skirt look. I like these options.
Pic 5: my sentimental cotton Lands End sweater (bought for my mother and kept after she died.)
Pics 6-9 with my Rails silver top, untucked and tucked. Different footwear options.
Pics 10-11 -- with a floral top from Simon's and pink jacket.
Pics 12-14 -- with a basic white shirt tucked, and oversized cropped denim jacket.
Pics 15-16 -- a blue top from Everlane. I could also tuck this.
Pics 17-18 -- denim tank.
Pics 19-21 -- with J. Crew print cotton tank -- untucked and tucked.
Pics 22-23 -- another J. Crew top, ditto.
Pics 24-25 -- linen shirt from BR.
Pic 26 -- cream Everlane top.
Pics 27-28 -- attempt at a tonal look but I don't think it works.
Pic. 29 -- linen top tied.
Pic 30 -- with a puffed sleeve shirt from Zara I am sending back because I think it is too much.
Thanks for looking! I didn't bother with jewellery etc. but will take advisement.
Any other styling suggestions gladly taken!
