Yes the jeans don't actually fall off! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167809 Tue, 26 Jan 2021 10:07:42 +0000 lyn67 2167809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Please don't stop, I love the white jeans and the dress is so cute! Nr 2 is a great casual- and I can see why your DD&nbsp; loves the vibe of&nbsp; oversized BF&nbsp; fit jeans on her cool Mom (but do&nbsp; they stay safe on your hips?:-)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167778 Tue, 26 Jan 2021 03:23:04 +0000 anne 2167778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Kkards </b>- yes the jeans in 2 look better with the heeled sandals in 1&nbsp; - but heels are not practical for most MOTG looks (which 2 is)<br /><b>Helena </b>- Thanks</p> <p><b>Nuancedream</b> - Thanks I am actually wearing platform sneakers in 2, though may not be obvious</p> <p><b></b><b>Angie</b><b></b><b> </b>- thanks. I'll see if I can do a picture following your suggestion of a fluid top, though wondering if I even own a fluid top!</p> <p>Thanks <b>Deborah</b>. You were there the night Lyn gave me that kimono jacket! Wow, a trip to Victoria seems so unattainable right now. Glad we met when we could.</p> <p><b>Unfrumped -</b>I know what you mean and I always feel that you get my body challenges because you share some of them! I'll see if I can put out a picture of the jeans with a more fitted top</p> <p>Thanks <b>Bijou</b></p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167775 Tue, 26 Jan 2021 03:05:03 +0000 anne 2167775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Fashionintern </b>- yes I think outfit 1 worked better IRL because the topper is fluid and moves, and because you can then see the top underneath. That topper is a YLF story btw, Was originally bought by Suz, then went to Lyn D in Australia and she passed it on to me 6 years ago.</p> <p>Re the pants - I think the problem is that I bought them in winter, and I tend to be a bit bigger in winter than summer. So I can just keep them for winter. But I'm going to try out some suggestions too. I have worn them with a body con top before (the one from the first picture) and I think that worked.<br />Yes re posting. I'm not a very frequent clothes purchaser and like you I keep items for a long time which can mean not much posting. Plus in my case I had a stage this year where I got a new phone and hadn't figured out how to log in to YLF on it!&nbsp; I'm in the summer holidays now (kids are I mean, I'm back at work, but things are kind of in summer mode) and posting on YLF was on the long list of things I planned to get done over the summer break. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167562 Mon, 25 Jan 2021 12:51:30 +0000 Bijou 2167562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are looking great - I also love #1 and 3 the most. #2 is a good easy weekend outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167561 Mon, 25 Jan 2021 12:46:32 +0000 unfrumped 2167561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First , you look fantastic- glowing and fit.<br /> # 1 is just perfect.<br /> I really struggle with pants like #2 for myself because I’m never happy with the silhouettes I can make in terms of figure- flattery vs trendy for those wide, cropped, stiffer styles. Though I will wear a slightly baggy style with some taper and am always looking for that elusive Jean that is somehow more loose and comfortable and still looks great without requiring leggy thin fashion- model form. </p> <p>However I agree re: a different top, not the boxy one. you’d look great in a fitted ballet style,- what might fit like an underlayer actually, or if drapier, for sure tucking it in.<br /> The dress in 3 is fab on you, both color and style, so keep an eye out for one for non- camping “ nice” wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167560 Mon, 25 Jan 2021 12:23:53 +0000 anne 2167560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much all. Will respond more tomorrow. Too tired! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167555 Mon, 25 Jan 2021 11:30:14 +0000 Deborah 2167555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love each look! You are looking fabulous!! My fave is the first outfit. Love that kimono jacket xx </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167479 Sun, 24 Jan 2021 19:55:58 +0000 Angie 2167479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Anne</b>, I know I say it often, but you have flawlessly beautiful healthy skin! </p> <p>I LOVE #1. KILLER. </p> <p>#3 is pretty and oh so adorable! Great floppy hat.</p> <p>#2 has potential in a fashion forward way. A fluid tucked top will elevate the jeans. Light footwear and preferably some sort of flatform - and you’re in business. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167474 Sun, 24 Jan 2021 19:44:22 +0000 nuancedream 2167474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love # 1 and # 3. I especially like the blue hat. IMO, the jeans are a good length but bit too big overall. I echo what kkards said about the footwear. I think a chunky platform would balance&nbsp; the wider leg of the jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167234 Sat, 23 Jan 2021 14:02:21 +0000 Helena 2167234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! Love 1 and 3 ... Totally get that feeling that something worked irl but not as well on a photo ... But the photo looks good to me! So if you felt good, then you nailed it!</p> <p>Re the jeans ... Echoing others' sentiments that there is some tweak that would make them just right ... Hopefully Angie will weigh in! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167229 Sat, 23 Jan 2021 13:19:29 +0000 kkards 2167229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><i></i>I like all 3 outfits<br /><i></i>Re the jeans in #2...i like them a lot, yes they are baggy, but i think they work, however for me, they need a different shoe. I’d go either sleeker and lighter, maybe even just a flip flop/thong or something chunky with a platform.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167219 Sat, 23 Jan 2021 10:39:26 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2167219@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You looked even better in person than you do in the first pic? Wowsers. That is a sophisticated casual look, imo. I also really like 3–so cute and fun, with a great floppy hat. I like the contrasting color bag with it too. </p> <p>The pants in 2....I’m curious to hear what others say. If you’re going to wear them so big, I’d style them with a fitted or even body-con top and then a boxy cropped jacket or cardi. If you do decide they are a smidge too big, you could always try washing them in hot water. </p> <p>Your posting pattern seems similar to mine—long absence, then a bunch of posts as I reevaluate/plan next moves. It probably comes from our similar approaches to fashion in general. xx </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167208 Sat, 23 Jan 2021 08:34:04 +0000 Mirjana 2167208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like #1 and #3 beautiful. I agree with others about jeans in #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167203 Sat, 23 Jan 2021 08:08:50 +0000 AJ 2167203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What's not to like in #1?&nbsp; Column of white, cute kimono, neutral sandals.&nbsp; &nbsp;Nice!<br />The jeans do look a bit big in #2.&nbsp; Does cuffing the leg help?<br />A dress for camping?&nbsp; Fancy!&nbsp; It looks pretty on you and the hat is nice too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167202 Sat, 23 Jan 2021 05:42:28 +0000 rachylou 2167202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jeans are perhaps a little wide in the waist/hip area... but I also like the look. If they get more fitted, I’m not sure if they’ll be as cool, tbh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167201 Sat, 23 Jan 2021 05:22:24 +0000 Ledonna N. 2167201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>3 is favorite </p> <p>Jeans look a bit big in the waist but I like the look </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167200 Sat, 23 Jan 2021 04:51:25 +0000 Carla 2167200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thumbs up to #1 and 3. &nbsp;Yes, I’m pretty sure you need to size down in the jeans in #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167197 Sat, 23 Jan 2021 04:39:36 +0000 Irina 2167197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in the dress! And I like outfit #1, too.<div>Re jeans - I don’t find them too long but they are probably one size too big. There is extra fabric in the zipper area. Can you try to size down?</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167194 Sat, 23 Jan 2021 03:50:30 +0000 anne 2167194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Rachy and Joy. I will be interested to hear Angie's input on the length as iirc she she didn't recommend shortening when I bought them, but I wonder too. Also wonder if they are too big overall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167193 Sat, 23 Jan 2021 03:49:31 +0000 slim cat 2167193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fav outfit #1- very pretty! The jeans/pants in #2 a bit big but could work out better with a chunkier shoes ( platform maybe - something to balance that volume in wide legged pants ). Dress is cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167190 Sat, 23 Jan 2021 03:46:57 +0000 Anonymous 2167190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Jeans in #2 do look a bit big and I like wide pants. Mostly they look too long as if they need a 2 or 3 inch hack. I think Angie advises that they end at least 2-3 inches above the ankle..I like the dress that you wore for camping. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-photos#post-2167189 Sat, 23 Jan 2021 03:45:06 +0000 rachylou 2167189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love!
