I have noticed that I tend to gravitate towards skirts. My most favorite outfits are a really cute skirt and top (or cardigan/cami or blazer) with some really cute shoes and jewelry. That is what I love the best. I also have noticed I have alot of brown. Now I do include other colors: like in one outfit I have peach/brown, in another turquoise/brown, in another yellow/brown, etc. Do you think the skirt/top combo is ok most all the time or do I need to change it up a bit?
It seems like you have really developed your style into what works for you. If you want a little more variety, then maybe you could try a few of the dresses popping up lately. They can be very versatile.

I wear the skirt/top most every day as well. I wear a dress once a week usually and every once in a while some pants/capris but not much because I don't feel as pretty in pants. I don't think there is anything wrong with wearing a skirt/top everyday. One thing I'm trying to do is stop wearing cardigans so much though, I'm the cardigan queen!
I actually wear a variation on this combo A LOT...I think maybe 3 - 4 days a week. I don't think it's so much about what types of pieces you're wearing so much as how you're wearing them and accenting them.
You sound like you know what works and looks best on you. I'm sure that your wardrobe is very versatile and that you always look pulled together.
If you feel like you're kinda bored, I would use accessories or try different top (maybe an asymmetrical neckline) or skirt shapes (like trying a bubble skirt or something)
Sounds like a great look to have! Like the others said if you feel like it wear a dress or pants every once in awhile, but I'm sure you look fantastic and very put together.
I wear pants everyday and wish I could get more into skirts, I'm hoping to do so once the weather gets better.
I wear skirts/tops almost everyday also. I think they're cooler and more stylish than any pants I own. Plus, they work better for me - more comfortable, suit my figure more, etc. As a matter of fact, I'm wearing pants today and I feel very awkward, not nearly as comfortable. But I'm meeting people today so I had to dress more businessy. Ugh.
Anyway, I say go with your personal style. Obviously a lot of STers like the skirt/shirt combo, so if that's any indication...
And like Lilykind said, if you want to spice things up, maybe start with some interesting color pairings (Thread Style has some excellent examples of interesting color pairings) with layering or something like that.
