Skirt issues!

ashyle

I bought a skirt on sale in awear. I really like it but none of my tops look right as its high waisted and I don't normally wear anything like that! can't find a pic but the waist is like this but the skirt itself is a little shorter than that one. I don't like vests so I've been looking for a blouse. I'm quite boobacious so nothing up to the neck will do, and a lot of blouses out there seem to be very buttoned-up affairs.

Can anyone recommend a style of top for me? Don't know where to begin!

Here are high waisted skirts with different tops to match, you might find something there. I just did a search in Asos and found these:

i have a few high waisted skirts and i always wear a plain vest top with them.

like some of the ones in the link, i'd go for a plain white vest with the skirt you've bought, just tuck it in and wear with a pair of killer heels!

If you don't like vest tops maybe a low-cut blouse would work?
There are a few in topshop at the moment that would look really nice tucked in.

This one would look nice, or if you don't like the print they have a few different styles. Somewhere like Oasis would probably have a good selection of blouses too.

Scarlett Johnasson has some nice tops in her new 'face of Mango' photos and she is a bit boobalicious too I believe...

I too have a high waisted skirt that I got in awear months ago...labels are still on it. I have no idea what to wear with it, and it's such a pretty skirt. Same as the OP, a bit boobalicious, so anything too clingy isn't great.

Some great ideas here tho - thanks!

Thanks guys for the advice, in the end I wore a purple one shoulder top tucked in. I'd never worn it before cos it's too long for jeans but too short to be a dress!! Just tucked it in, bit of a risk but I think it worked!
