Dear Skirt Purchaser,
Congratulations...this is the most difficult Fashion FAQ I've ever done! It's REALLY hard to pair this skirt with the right top! I think it's because there is so much going on in the skirt and it's hard to find a top that is the right shape for this sort of bottom.
My first recommendation is actually to tailor the skirt. All too often, skirts of this length can look a little dowdy. If it looks that way on you, don't be afraid to tailor it! It's still the same beautiful skirt, just shorter!
I came up with a few shirt options, all of which are below.
If you go with this top, you're just sticking to neutral, light, springy feel of the skirt. I would recommend tucking it (unless you want to go for an ultra-hippie look), and maybe pairing it with a light brown belt.

If you're a fan of the flashy, then this sequin tank (paired with an already busy skirt) might be right up your alley. Even though the skirt is a neutral tone, by pairing it with a sequin tank, you create a night look.

I like the idea of a plain white tank with the skirt and then an open-face cardigan on top. The pink adds a nice color match to the ensemble.

As for shoes, below are my recs:
First, I couldn't seem to capture the nude version of this sandal, so let me start off by saying I do NOT advise buying the black, but rather the beautiful light beige. My immediate thought when I saw the skirt was to go for a chunky sandal, and this one fits my vision almost perfectly.

With a flowy, lacey skirt like this, you can't go wrong with glitter flops. Just make sure they work in the color scheme of the skirt! (i.e. white, pink, beige, brown, etc.)
