Red and pink, I would think, wouldn't be a great combo. But again, this is the blind leading the blind here. I wish I could consult my wife haha!

You know I'm starting to lose confidence in your fashion advice Perhaps you should ask your wife. I'm sure she wouldn't mind you giving advice on her husband's female friend's outfit. She definitely wouldn't have any questions about who I was, or why you were asking. lol

Lol, no it is totally normal for me to ask her about fashion advice on women's clothes hahaha.

Well I tried out the top with the skirts I have. Disappointingly it doesn't go with either the red-black one or the pink one. The shade's too dark for the pink and not red enough for the other. I should've stuck with my original choice of light pink. I bottled out of choosing that one thinking it was too pink for me.
The top though not tight, isn't loose fitting which is what I was after. At least the buttons are nice. They go with those sparkly shoes. Those really are sparkly too. Despite being half a size up and being a wide fit, they are again tight on the toes. Perhaps I just need to wear them in.

You need to get you a nice casual black skirt I think.

Sorry I've not been much help with this, due to not really being on for properly for a couple of weeks, but then I'm not sure I'd have been much use even if I had. I think my reaction to absolutely everything would just have been along the lines of "I'm not sure unless I actually see it"!

My main takeaway from this is for me to just try out myself to see which combination works the best. The most important factor is that I like how it looks and feel more comfortable and confident wearing it. As a result there isn't a lot of point asking you on here because I can work it for myself.
That still means though that I'll be asking about clothes before I buy them. I really need to you to point out if I'm making any glaring errors before I spend my precious money.

I think this is how genetic women do it so I am pretty sure we are nailing it ladies!

As well, I guess something that we might look at and think "hmm, I'm not sure if that combinations works", you might look at and think "yes - this is exactly what I was aiming for!" With there being so much extra variation in styles, outfits and looks with women's fashion, it's far more likely that what we see and our opinions wouldn't 100% sync up!

I'm looking for a top to wear with my pink skirt. For your reference it's this one Pink skirtThere's this looser fitting top Loose black topOr there's a pullover. I'm thinking either black or cream. Black pulloverCream pulloverMore than anything I want to be warned about making a glaring mistake, just some reassurance that isn't happening. I'll keep on looking for alternatives, but thought I'd ask about these as I've just seen them Thanks, Lily

I think the black pullover goes best. The cream might clash a bit, and the loose black top might go too far down and look a little odd.

You're right about the length, those work better with jeans/trousers don't they. I'm still very much in a skirts and dresses phase. The black has the advantage of going with a lot of other things too. At the moment I'm focussing on that skirt because I'm itching to finally give it its debut.
Only problem with the pullover is I'm after something a bit loose fitting, not so figure hugging. I'll see if I can find some others before ordering anything.
