How Would You Style This Boho Skirt

Happy Saturday, ladies. It’s time for our weekly chat about how we would style a look. Each week my friend Pam and I share a mannequin we’ve run across to share with you. Out goal is to spark conversation and give you fresh ideas. It’s easy to get into a styling rut…I know I do…so this is a great way to hear what others would do with the same items.

This skirt has a bit of a boho vibe with its Ikat stripe and metallic thread. The fabric is a lightweight cotton. How would you style it? I couldn’t find a link for the sweater, but I can tell you it’s a mid-weight sweater tank.

  1. It looks so much better on you than on the mannequin. These colors are great on you.

  2. I like the shift to asking how people would style it, agree that itā€™s more positive. I really like that you tried it on exactly as worn on the mannequin to show how it looks on a human. That was a great idea! I liked it on the mannequin and although it looked very nice on you, the colors were a little too monochromatic, especially with light colored hair. I didnā€™t notice that before.

  3. I really like the purple version of the skirt. Is the skirt see through or needs a slip? It doesnā€™t seem so, but I wanted to check, Iā€™ve not worn a long slip for some years! Thanks,

    1. Itā€™s fully lined and not see through

  4. I just wanted to say that the photo of you in this outfit for your Sunday posting is great! It looks really nice on you!

  5. I’m a day late, but just got your Sunday email with you in this outfit. I love everything about it and you look fantastic in it. It’s so feminine, light and airy. What size did you try on and how did you find the fit? I think I want to order the skirt and cami! Also, love some of the styling ideas others have posted.

    1. The skirt is a small and the sweater is an XL. The sweater was huge on me but itā€™s the only one they had left in the store except what the mannequin was wearing. I agree..ladies have come up with some fabulous ideas on this outfit! Thatā€™s why I love this new format.

  6. I actually like the outfit as it is. But, just for fun, I’d wear a graphic tee of some kind. I have one in green I’d consider. I have several others that might work. I think I’d also try a horizontal stripe tee under the denim jacket shown.

  7. I rather like what they did on the mannequin. Itā€™s cute. I would probably wear a white crew neck tee shirt under the jacket! And I might even add another layer of a white collared shirt. I love to layer! šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø

    1. Layering adds such great dimension to an outfit.

  8. I think I would swap out the sweater for a simple tank and pair it with a sage green denim jacket, simple silver jewelry and some simple sandals, a slide or wedge

  9. White v neck tee or linen top, silver belt, silver sandals, silver rings, earrings and silver bracelets, white cross body bag; simple monochrome style.
