Q. I bought this "Susanna" skirt pictured below from Delia's for spring, and I'm not quite sure what to wear with it. It's a bit high-waisted, which I'm not used to. I'm very petite (5'3, 100 lbs) so i was trying to find something that would add some curves. The website shows girls wearing it with hoodies but I think that looks a little ridiculous (plus I'm 28 - looking for more of a pulled together, fashiony look). Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
A. Great find! Short, full skirts are a big trend this season and there are many ways to wear them that don't look too young. Here are 3 ideas for you:
- Wear a simple fitted shirt over the waist band and then add a belt at the waist if you want to dress it up further, skip the belt if you prefer a relaxed casual look.
- Tuck in a pretty blouse. You can also add a belt at the waistband here if you like.
- Pair a belted jacket (great for adding curves) or little cardigan over a tank top or tee shirt.
