Can One Wear Skirt With Tunic by sophy09: 5:07pm On Jul 07, 2010 |
Fashion oriented people in the house, I'll like to know if one can wear skirt (either knee length or long) with tunic. |

^^^^exactly. . . @post you can wear them with leggings or just the tunics alone but if you happen to be heat bullet proof or shy it goes well with a pair of trouser too

Thanks y'all. Mine is like the last one, i don't feel comfortable wearing skinny jeans or leggings, I thought may be a skirt will look good with it. |

if its like the last one, u could probably get away with wearing a pencil skirt that stops at the knee if you really want to wear one. |

Idowuogbo: ~ You had me The thought does have an embarrassing cringe potential!! It works for chics who are going for the Boho-inspired look. . . long gypsy skirts/ tunic. ~I'd agree Tunics look great w/ all the aforementioned! I love to wear mine on its own/with a Skinny belt holding it down/Tights or w/ shorts ~Never really caught on the idea of wearing it w/ a skirt but after doing a quick research,i've learned Tunics have become more multipurpose and versatile than ever before. I found pics showing there are ways one can pull off wearing a skirt with Tunic w/o looking frumpy if one knows the types of Tunics/skirts that work great together. ~At a quick glance, it looks like a dress, but its actually a tunic top worn over a layered skirt she hiked up to look short. (According to her blog) |

naija_diva: ~You're right on w/ pairing Tunic w/knee length Pencil Skirt. Like you said,she'd prolly get away w/ pairing it w/ the Tunic but going by the type of tunic she has (The Kurti) Im in doubt! That type of tunic usually looks best w/ trousers/leggings. . . ~Anywho with the variety of cuts,colours,designs,shapes,prints & different length available out there,she's bound to find something that works for her since she doesn't particularly want to pair it up with Trousers/Leggings. ~Found this Pic of a Tunic worn w/ Pencil Skirt. . . |

sophy09: ~As your prefrence of pairing is skirt,you shud choose a tunic length that either falls below the waist/mid thigh & avoid above the knee length tunics! Straight seams,Empire waist or Asymmetrical style tunics will work better w/ skirts than Kurti/Kimono tunics. For example:the pic you say is similar to yours is the Indian kurti style tunic. ~I cudnt find any pics of Kurti's worn w/ skirt & the handful i cud find all had different types of tunics! ~Kurti worn w/ shorts ~Feel free to push the envelope a lil bit,try out what works for you. . . ~I personally think silk and chiffon tunics work best paired w/ a Pencil Skirt. You might want to look into the types of tunic you buy if you only want to pair it w/ Skirt. [img]http://s7d2.scene7.com/is/image/SpiegelBrands/S0754004_8107_001_E?$216x270$[/img] ~Asymmetrical cut Tunics ~Here's hoping the pics have given you a general idea/options of trying out what works for you or experimenting if you like!

Idowuogbo: ~Gr8 Ta. Hope you are too! ~Ta. . . Idowuogbo: ~I agree,if she hadnt mentioned it was a skirt,i wud have thought it was a dress! Her choice of accessory brought the whole ensemble gr8 together! Idowuogbo: ~Rock on chic. . . |
