The pencil skirt remains a classic of business style and a highlight of the weekend wardrobe: the length and material allow you to vary the same style. In burgundy color she is beyond competition! So, what should you combine it with?
What to combine with a burgundy pencil skirt?
Burgundy is not one specific color. Understanding shades is a matter for specialists, and they know the difference between Marsala, Brazilian, Burgundy... For mere mortals, it is obvious that the colors of wines from Bordeaux can be:
- light;
- saturated;
- muted dark.
The ensemble - business or evening - will depend on the chosen shade. Matte colors are good for an office suit, more saturated and bright colors are good for a weekend outfit.
Important! When choosing a color, you should consider the texture of the fabric for the product. Dark shades of expensive fabrics (velvet or satin) are capable of shimmering and demonstrating a rich color palette.
The generally recognized ability of a pencil to emphasize the beauty of a female figure and disguise imperfections is especially demonstrated in the burgundy version. While maintaining a certain severity, the image turns out to be moderately sexy and sophisticatedly catchy. By matching the tight-fitting style of the skirt with a shirt or blouse made of light fabrics, a jacket or jacket, adding classic shoes and a formal bag to the ensemble, you will be able to create a successful business look.
A skirt made of burgundy jersey will serve as an excellent basis for an everyday look, pairing perfectly with a jacket, coat and raincoat.
Need an elegant outfit? We combine an elongated skirt in a bright shade with a lace bodice (corset, blouse) in dark colors.
When choosing the colors of the ensemble, you need to remember the self-sufficiency of burgundy. If the item matched to the skirt is of a contrasting color, then it should not overwhelm the “soloist”. Possible combinations:
- with beige: rich burgundy will be softly muted;
- with black: laconic and strict;
- with white: burgundy will demonstrate all its luxury;
- with pink: being distant relatives, the shades get along well with each other;
- with gray: a not too sharp contrast will add femininity;
- with blue: elegant and sophisticated;
- with yellow: bold and bright.
Important! If you doubt the selection of colors, you can settle on a win-win trio: burgundy-white-beige.
Leather
This skirt looks especially impressive, stylish and expensive. Various ensemble options are possible:
- business: a strict knee-length style is combined with a black classic shirt (turtleneck) and heeled pumps, a minimum of discreet jewelry;
- universal: leather skirt+white blouse+beige coat+black boots;
- youth: above-the-knee skirt+top with a bright print+loafers with leg warmers+denim jacket.
Made of velvet
The luxury of such an outfit is especially appropriate for celebrations (with a lace or satin top and elegant shoes), but casual and business options are possible: for the first case, knitted top materials are suitable, for the second - a blouse made of light fabrics of moderate cut, prints and colors.
Important! Velvet cannot stand being surrounded by too much decoration! Velvet accessories such as a bag, hat, hairpins are also not allowed.
From tweed
Suit fabrics are good for every day and in the office. Combinations with a sweater and turtleneck, or with a jacket and jacket are possible. For example:
- skirt + gray or beige turtleneck (sweater) + black shoes, a leather belt is a good accessory;
- skirt + blouse (shirt) in light colors + black or dark brown jacket.
Made from lace
Clearly a ceremonial option - refined and airy. The top material can be light or deliberately weighted - a velvet bodice, a brocade bodice. With this style, the luxurious gold color of the top is also suitable. From shoes, minimalist sandals will look most harmonious.
However, you can create a contrasting look by choosing a top with a lace skirt, leather biker jacket and boots with rough soles. Massive chains and bracelets will complete the look.
Important! The lace of a long skirt may suffer from proximity to metal shoe fittings.
Possible accessories
It’s not bad to have a lot of things in beige, white and black colors: handbags and gloves, a hat and a scarf...
Jewelry made from pearls and under pearls are good. A garnet bracelet or necklace will add special chic to your look. You can wear one thing to complement your look.
Selecting shoes
The classic style requires appropriate shoes, especially in the office.. But the concept of classics now has many meanings! Pumps and ballet flats, loafers and moccasins, oxfords and dorseis - taking into account age and body shape, dress code rules and personal preferences, you can always choose a pair that matches the burgundy “pencil”. Sandals will also work.
Important! You can choose stiletto shoes only if you know how to walk in such heels! Otherwise, it’s not the burgundy skirt that will become memorable, but the hobbling gait.
Classic boots with a minimum of accessories and discreet ankle boots are good as a street option in cold weather.. The best colors for shoes are black, beige, dark brown, and on special occasions – white.
Each material requires a special approach when compiling sets, dictating the conditions for the selection of clothes, shoes, and accessories.
