new tops and leggings from Macy's

Anonymous

I did a little shopping in San Antonio. I found these things in Macy's and I thought I had hit the jackpot, but now not so sure.
I bought 2 pair of black leggings with button detail at the ankle which I didn't photograph but intended to wear with these tops.
What do you think?

Are they too similar to keep them all?
Here is a black sweater-coat I bought to go over them.

Then I bought this purple top and was so sure of it I took the tags off and now I think it is so not me, big mistake. I think I will pass this one along.

Go ahead and let me have it. What do you think of all of these things? If I return some, which ones?
Thankyou!

San, I really really like the first top and the sweater coat a lot! (would love to see the leggings too). The other tops are also very nice but if you were needing to take the others back, I'd say the first top gets my pick for favorite of the tops and the black sweater coat is very elegant and fun at the same time!

The first three are similar - similar cut, pattern, color theme - but you look so great in this style. If you think you will get good use out of all of them, keep them! If you want to pare down, just choose one of the first three. Keep all the rest- they are different enough.

How lucky you are to be able to find tunics that fit and flatter you so well! Can't wait to see them with your new leggings. I bet these outfits will be very comfy.

Yes Shiny I do fear I will find them so comfy it will be like wearing PJ's.
The reason I bought two green ones that look similar is because the one with the belt is shorter and I thought it would be good with skinny jeans. The other three have no belt and are longer for the leggings.
The last one with the ruffle sleeves looks like a dress to me but it is much to short to be worn as a dress for me, so I would pair it with leggings.
I just photographed the leggings detail and I will post it here when I get back home later.
Thanks.

San, I love #4 on you, please keep that one. I agree with shiny that the first 3 are similar and you could probably keep just one of them. I would go with #1 I think. The sweater coat looks great, too.

You look terrific in this style with skinnies. The sweater coat from Inc. is fab, I agree that the purple top (last pic posted) is maybe not a keeper, but it's not terrible either. I prefer you in any of the first 4 tunic tops, though.

Of all of them, #4 is the most striking. Could you possibly reveal which brand it is??

San, I love you in these tunics. Number 1 and 4 are my faves. The long jacket will be perfect for layering. I love your style!

San I think you did have great luck!
I think the only one that is really long enoughn for leggings is the purple-y and black one. The rest look great with your skinnies. If you are thinking of returning any- I vote the blue and black one (third). The color is not as good for you as the other ones. I'm not really fond of the last one, either. It just seem a little boring compared to the tunics. Any of these is going to look great with your cardi.

You look gorgeous in these tops san! If I had to pick - I'd select one of the first three, and definitely *keep* the fourth one, as that one is very wow. Also, I think the black cardigan is just excellent.

Laura the tops are Style and Co, and the one with the ruffle sleeves and the sweater/coat are INC.

These leggings are also Style and Co and one pair is INC. The fabrications are different, one being more cotton rich and one being more polyester.

Wow San, you did great at Macys!
1st top: My fav, hands down. You look so cute and fresh
2nd top: My least fav, for some reason. Very similar to the first; I think it's the combo of its pattern and length that doesn't work for me.
3rd top: I like the cut and the shade of blue.
4th top: Love the pattern and the flowiness of the top/dress.
Cardi: Very versatile!
Last purple top: It's ok; I like the first tops you posted better.

Nice leggings too! I love the button detail.

Jackpot indeed San!!! The one that jumped out at me was the purple and black top......so pretty!!! Agree that the belted first top would work best with jeans....leggings might be pushing it. Talk about set for the season now - that's great!!!!

Wow San, what a great haul! I love your new stuff! I especially like the first and the fourth tunic, and the cardigan. I agree that the purple top is cute, but nothing special, you have many nicer things.

These are all SO GREAT, but I have to say the 4th one, the almost-dress in purple and black, made me gasp in delight. You look so slim and elegant in that!

Keep 'em all and enjoy them!

Sandy, I think everything is great. My absolute favorites are the sweater coat and the 4th tunic.

Woohoo! Let me tell you again that your new hairstyle rocks! I love the first top and the last dress (esp with the sweater coat). The blue top is fab too and the the other too are my least fav. You can definitely do much better than the purple san. I love seeing you in jewel tones.

You are definitely on a roll San!! My favourites are the black sweater coat, blue patterned tunic and that gorgeous purple and black one with the geometric pattern. But everything else looks wonderful too. Thanks for posting pictures!

Is the 4th option about the right length for leggings?

I think so Debbie. That is how I understood the feedback. It also has to do with your height and the scale of everything working together. I think the eyeball test has to pass too.

I really like the first and last tunics the best. They all look good on you, but those are the most fab, IMO. Congrats on more great shopping finds, San!

Ooh, lovely finds, San! My favorites are the first tunic because I love the pattern and the fourth because I love how it shows the curves in your svelte body, and seems like it would be great with leggings.
