I would wear the mini skirt with a baby tee or tank.

Choose something that is neither too revealing nor too girly, although a white camisole like this one might look good too http://www.net-a-porter.com/intl/images/pr...large/index.jpg Chloe

An attitude tee would look cool, especially if you wear them with big hoop earrings. Complete the look with flats. The skirt looks rather short so dont pair it with heels.

As for the tube top, I see it going well with maxi or boho skirts. I would not wear it together with the ra-ra skirt mentioned above as both are quite revealing. A good rule of thumb is to pair revealing items with volume. A pair of cropped skinnies may look good too but be sure that it is not too low waisted. This shall go well wedges or stick to flats if you are lanky.

thanks trishotiwuth for all the great tips. but but the skrits that u mentioned to pair with the tube top. i'm not tall, so if i wear long skirts will look very short. any other options? thanks

by the way, the tube top, should wear bra or not? if not what do i do to keep my nipples frm popping out? does nipple pads can keep my nipples frm popping out? thank u very much

Hello anonymousmich,

If you dont feel comfortable with a long skirt, a full skirt which falls right on your knee or just slightly above would look as great too. The key here is to get something voluminous and/or flowy.

And of course, nothing beats a good pair of sunnies for that fashionista look!

(Topshop UK)

Dont be afraid of long boho skirts as they look good on not-so-tall girls too, provided they are VOLUMINOUS and cover your legs COMPLETELY (even your shoes must be covered). If you want to look taller, choose a boho skirt that is slightly low-waisted (if you are comfortable with this, that is). Low waists tend to elongate your torso but make sure the skirt is not too tight or you'll end up with muffin tops

With the tube top, do get a seamless strapless bra. Triumph makes good seamless bras, especially the Sloggi range.

Do post up pics once you have put the look together =)

Cheers.

hello girls...

need some advice from you girls.

i have this very very nice mid-calf pleated skirt (impulse buying ):

problem is...... i seem to have no idea what to wear with this skirt.

I don't have spaghetti/sleeveless top to team with this skirt, so my option would be long/three-quarter sleeves or baby-t.

I tried with baby-t, and it ended up not nice

When I wear with long sleeve, it was OK, but no idea what kind of shoes pulak

I have no idea what top should I wear and with which shoes

Hello yott,

I would say match it with a tank or camisole top in bright "warm" shades. Yellow and peach are excellent choices. Do not be afraid to embrace colours! Go for the sweet girly look since the skirt has that lovely self-tie ribbon. Anything with ribbons, lace, buttons or satin trimmings are good BUT do not overdo it. If you could get a camisole like the one shown here, a single strand pearl necklace is sufficient as accessory and perhaps stud earrings for a cool, resort-chic style.

C&C California Splendid

As for the shoes, I see two options: flats (because they are cute and girly) and wedges (because they are so in this season!). But two reminders here. Stick to neutral shades if you top is already bright or has lots of trimmings. If it is a plain top, you can get a little creative and wear slightly funkier flats. Same goes for wedges.

Cheers,

Trish.

Trish: OMG, TQ you're so genius! I forgot the flats! Must be really nice to pair with this skirt.

And I like the orange color top you posted

hi girls,

I've bought this belt for quite some time but I'm not sure how to match it with my clothes. Everytime i try it on it looks weird.

anyone can help? thanks...

Hello cherriegal,

That is one lovely belt! Belts are one of the cheapest option if you want to stay in-trend yet not burn a hole in your pocket.

I would recommend wearing the belt with a long top or tunic. Although it looks nicer on a printed top (stripes are best) but it may look equally stunning with a plain dark-coloured or bright-coloured (see pic below) top/tunic. Pastels are likely to 'drown' the belt.

Delia's

Place the belt right on your waistline if you want to accentuate your curve (see pic below). Do this if you are thin and have small chest and hips.

Delia's

Or, pull the belt upper and place it right on your under bust line to create a baby-doll top. It should go something like this;

Supre Australia

The belt works well with dresses too. A single-coloured shirtdress looks fantastic with the belt while a strapless dress in dark blue/maroon or black (see pic below) will give that sexy 50's look =)

i luv ur short awexgiler

i choose flat for your checked short

flat will made u looks young ..

cute and active.. hahaha...

and i think, plain or less embellishment flats are okay..

looks not crowd at all..

or maybe can try high heel..

not strapy heel..

make sure fully cover ur feet..

such as peep-toe or pump toe..

coz the short already show ur legs..

for me, if wear strapy heels..looks "la la"..haaha

based my observation at my college woo..

but, i really luv ur checked short wooo~~

p/s : ur new avatar's pic looks beautiful...

I have similar shorts and I usually pair it with round-toed flats if I want to go for a casual look. Choose something simple with no patternsm otherwise it might just clash with the design of the shorts. You could go bold with colours e.g red/orange flats but tone down with just a plain top.

Miss Selfridge UK

Last winter, I tried creating a sophisticated look with the shorts. I wore a slim fit jacket with a lacy camisole underneath. Wore black leggings, pulled on the shorts and completed the look with a pair of pointy pumps (looks something like pic below). My friends loved the combo!

awaxgiler, i think a pair of high heel pumps will look great with knee lenght shorts.

You can find these pairs here: http://www.lovingyou99.com/store/index.php?cPath=1_28_56

I m so in love with rounded toe pumps nowadays cos they are so versatile.. go well with almost everything.

if u want to look preppy, try with cardigans

and to break the monotony of the colour, try wearing bright coloured high heeled sandals.

Is this what it is?

If it is, I reckon you should tie a bow with the loose ends of the scarf and just leave your hair untied.

You could tie your hair up as well when wearing the scarf. I think oversized sunnies would be great to give you that Jackie O look =)
