Eyelet Texture

Hi Pres,
Am I correct to assume that my solid black and solid white eyelet skirts are completely neutral and can be worn with other prints? The texture thing throws me off.
Is my pattern/texture question too fundamental to be asking? If so, guess I'll be pairing the skirts with solids again this summer. You can answer me privately if the question is too ridiculous for your site! Love your site, I visit it daily.



No question is too fundamental for SOS! That's why it's called SOS.

Eyelet is a lovely choice for summer wear. And, I think that your eyelet skirts can support print pieces in an ensemble, if the print is summery, and the shape of the piece is compatible with the skirt. I know that this isn't obvious, but a long textured silk shirt tunic with a geometric or animal print pattern might not be compatible with an eyelet skirt, and a cotton shirt with a fresh floral might.

The texture of the skirt is not as important as its total message: This is a summer skirt in a feminine fabric. I wouldn't wear heavy snow boots (winter), or sneakers (sports activity) with the skirt. Some prints and some fabrics, won't work either. But some certainly will.
