should the colours not match in the way i imagine then i will pair it with a different bottom. it is very much a me item and i am quite excited for it especially as the weather turns. i had saved similar items that i liked the look of but none had all these qualities in one nor at a price i was liking. i had not considered one for that skirt before and yet this one appears to be just the right colour pattern to go with it. it has hints of purple, hints of brown and a few other colours that i think will pull nicely with the skirt. but if not, then i am not worried about pairing it with jeans or something else more neutral.
