Depends. Do all six blouses go with all four skirts? If one of the blouses is polka dotted and one of the skirts is plaid, that is at least one combination you would have to discount.

4 ways to pick the skirt. For each of those 4 ways, there are 6 ways to pick the blouse. 4 times 6. Except as noted.
