How to Make a Skirt Look More Casual
I love when you explain in simple ways I can understandable. =)
Love the necklace your wearing. Great design and colour.
Wow!! Thank you very much Imogen! 🙂 Makes my day!
I will try using these tips. I already wear knit tops, so a jean skirt should really be doable. As an X I should be wearing skirts for sure. I have some maxi skirts which I wear with flat shoes, but that look is a bit of an attention grabber since so few people do it, so I am looking for something more usual.
Thanks again,
Olga
Olga. Love that you’re looking for the usual rather than the unusual!
=) I work in a technical field with few women, so I try not to overdo it. My main fun is from necklaces and scarves, otherwise it’s all jeans/slacks and knit tops.
cute skirt! i really love the idea of wearing a casual skirt as a change from jeans, but as an H shape i have a really hard time wearing skirts. actually it was not until i figured out (here!) what my shape is that i was able to really identify my skirt problem – they always ride up, because i have no waist! any recommendations, imogen, for how H’s can comfortably wear skirts? (so far i have given up and turned to dresses.)
Jenni the riding up of skirts is a problem I’ve not found a great solution for yet. I just frequently hitch them down again
Blundstones and tights, seriously!
Duchesse ah Blunnies. Now there is a happily forgotten fashion trend. Though I’m sure they’ll be back again with the rise of Dr Martins which are back in fashion again!
Very nice and I like the non-repeating pattern. I’m sure it is flattering on.
Duchesse thanks I appreciate you compliment
Hi Imogen,
You have such fabulous style. I am just wondering where you got the gorgeous necklace? I have been looking for something similiar (to wear with a navy dress) for awhile now. Kind regards, Sophie
Hi Sophie,
The necklace was from Kate Hill but I bought it a couple of years ago and they no longer do jewellery. There is so much great costume jewellery around, I’m always keeping my eyes out – many clothing stores do a bit which is worth going in to look at, even if you don’t buy the clothes there, as are places like Diva and even Target which you can pick up some great fun pieces at really reasonable prices.
