styling tip, anyone?

so one of the newer items in my closet is this drapey assymetrical ella moss tank top that i redeemed from fashionistette through the chic rewards. i've been wanting to wear it out this summer since the fabric is really soft and comfy, plus the cut is airy and fun to twirl around in, hahaha!


the only small concern i have is, i've been trying to think of more ways to style it up. i know i can easily pair it with my skinny jeans, but i wanted to try and stretch its functionality by pairing it with some other bottoms. i don't know if my ensemble experiments turned out well, but i was hoping to create a sort of seamless flowy look by pairing the top with skirts. i paired it with a high waisted one and also a pencil cut one.

outfit: kismet skirt, divi skirt, belt c/o jen thru clothes swap, joe fresh flats, wetseal sandals

i'm thinking of wearing it with some tights or leggings, but the front part is just too short. i don't really want to fall in that category of people who wear leggings/tights as pants since im not the most comfortable person in that look. so i need your help, guys.. if you have any idea on how i can wear this chic reward, do share!

oh btw, don't forget to add chictopia on facebook and be a part of the discussion boards to know the latest news on the site and share your ideas to make chictopia work for you better!

Mmm, Marble Slab is so good! I home you can figure out a way to make it out to Calgary!

Aaahh, yes! cold stone also recently opened here and it has the same concept of marble slab. too expensive for ice cream but they're worth it once in awhile, i must say. as for calgary, im still contemplating. darn, i can't make up my mind, can i?

  3. Bodycon skirts would work really good, like your first picture. :) Then you've got a flowy on top and a tighter bottom so it doesn't feel too uneven.. that or just skinny jeans with another layer on top of your top, like a cropped jacket or loose, sheer vest of some sort? :D
    I love how you did it, though! So cute. :D

  4. Tights would be perfect, but since you don't really want to go there, like Ali said skinny jeans and what you did in the pics would work beautifully! Thanks for dropping by too:-).

  11. i'd say layer it with a skirt or add some texture with printed stockings!

  12. since it's gray, pair it with colorful skirts that you can put on top of each other for that color pop or pair it with a long cardigan if you'll be wearing leggings. But pair it with colorful pieces :)

  15. I think this would look great with skinny jeans -- and the skirt that you've paired it with in the first and last photos also totally works. It's a cute top!

  20. That's definitely an interesting way to style up that top. I could never figure out how to wear cuts like that myself. I especially like the printed skirt for day then the black skirt for night :)

  21. I think it'd look super cute worn loose with some short shorts underneath! Perfect for super hot summer days :)

  23. Hi there! Thanks for stopping by. This is such a versatile top. Love the looks you've posted. You could layer it on top of a tight fitting dress... or maybe a pouffier skirt might also look interesting. When it gets cooler, a loose fitting cardigan with a belt + tights would be super cute too!

    ReplyDelete
  24. I prefer the first combination!!

    ReplyDelete
  25. Great photos. You look fantastic. Not sure which way I like it the best.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Whew... I love when you paired the top with the black skirt. maybe you can add a cropped jacket too? hahaha.. =D

    ReplyDelete
  27. love your top.
    i think, you can wear lace legging, but combine it with denim short or khakis short :)

    ReplyDelete
  28. I have been having the same problem on deciding how I should style my assymetrical tops,(esp. for summer)! The belt is a Great touch and pulls the look together:)For fall/winter I would go for a military jacket with some cool tights and lace up booties!

    ReplyDelete
  29. I love the drapiness of your top and how it's paired with a tight skirt. Another way I'd wear it is over denim cutoffs- since the back is longer you don't have to worry about the shorts being too short since your butt is covered!

  30. I have some exciting news on my blog!! Hope you like it
    Ohh and you look gorgeous

  33. I like the belt and pencil skirt underneath. It looks great. I might try it with some walking shorts and jacket instead of the belt, or if not a jacket, maybe an open vest, cute!

    ReplyDelete
  34. Super cute top! I love the color! i think it would look great with shorts.

    ReplyDelete
  35. cute looks i really like them both and cold stone sounds pretty fabulous! lol my fave. it the birthday cake

    ReplyDelete
  36. That is such a cute top, but I can def see how it would be difficult to style for warm weather appropriate opportunities. Maybe play with the asymmetrical hem? You could tie it sometimes, or tuck one side in cute off shorts.

    ReplyDelete
  37. love the diff was you wear this! you could also try tying it up a bit and play with other shirts under it!

  38. You can layer it with skin tight dresses and just add that top on top. How about shorts? or another flowy tank top underneath it?


    Great top though. It's so pretty.

  39. i love this top with the belt and sandals--just perfect.
