The length of the bell sleeve looks manageable. The only neg is you have to hold it down to put a jacket or coat over it, which is not too hard anyway. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-keeper-and-a-question-on-bell-sleeves#post-1825859 Wed, 19 Jul 2017 02:11:37 +0000 Preppy Pear 1825859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like all of these! I love the lace on 4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-keeper-and-a-question-on-bell-sleeves#post-1825837 Wed, 19 Jul 2017 01:32:57 +0000 Anonymous 1825837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the shorter bell sleeves! Manageable and fashionable--I think these are a little step in the trendy direction, which is a good thing.<br /> I say keep ALL and listen to DH </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-keeper-and-a-question-on-bell-sleeves#post-1825826 Wed, 19 Jul 2017 01:17:44 +0000 Susie 1825826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Thistle!! So nice to see you!</p> <p>I agree with what Angie said exactly. But the lace top IS nice if you want to add just one more top for dressier occasions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-keeper-and-a-question-on-bell-sleeves#post-1825799 Wed, 19 Jul 2017 00:15:46 +0000 Tanya 1825799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Finds added </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-keeper-and-a-question-on-bell-sleeves#post-1825796 Wed, 19 Jul 2017 00:11:31 +0000 Angie 1825796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Thistle. Shorter bell sleeves are very manageable.&nbsp;</p> <p>Can someone please add the Finds from Thistle's links. I know that she can't manage from her own computer. Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-keeper-and-a-question-on-bell-sleeves#post-1825791 Wed, 19 Jul 2017 00:07:00 +0000 Tanya 1825791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all the tops for you, Thistle.&nbsp;&nbsp; I second Nadya abut the sleeve length for #3 - I have a bell sleeve top with similar sleeve length and deal just fine with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-keeper-and-a-question-on-bell-sleeves#post-1825787 Wed, 19 Jul 2017 00:03:00 +0000 Janet 1825787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Nadya -- those are nice tops! It's good to see you post. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-keeper-and-a-question-on-bell-sleeves#post-1825784 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 23:53:51 +0000 Nadya 1825784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that since the sleeves on #3 are not full length, they wouldn't drive you batty as they won't get in the way while using a computer and so forth. It's a super cute top! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-keeper-and-a-question-on-bell-sleeves#post-1825780 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 23:46:51 +0000 Thistle 1825780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Karen Kane definitely can go to work with appropriate trousers, which I already have.&nbsp;</p> <p>The black tee goes to work under a cardi or sweater jacket, or it can double as weekend duty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-keeper-and-a-question-on-bell-sleeves#post-1825779 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 23:44:45 +0000 Thistle 1825779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sure!</p> <p>Karen Kane Top:&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/karen-kane-asymmetrical-dip-dye-top-plus-size/4652924">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ka.....ze/4652924</a></p> <p>Sejour Tee: &nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/sejour-v-neck-tee-plus-size/4530012">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/se.....ze/4530012</a></p> <p>Burgundy Flare Sleeve:&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/sejour-flare-sleeve-double-layer-top-plus-size/4560700">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/se.....ze/4560700</a></p> <p>Black Bell Sleeve: &nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/sejour-embroidered-bell-sleeve-blouse-plus-size/4656860">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/se.....ze/4656860</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-keeper-and-a-question-on-bell-sleeves#post-1825776 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 23:40:17 +0000 Angie 1825776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks good, Thistle. Is there any way you can provide the links to the items? That would be helpful to others.&nbsp;</p> <p>Soooo, the first two tops can go to work? FAB.&nbsp;You can absolutely wear #3 to work.&nbsp;</p> <p>#4 is gorgeous, but in black - probably not as appropriate in your office environment.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-keeper-and-a-question-on-bell-sleeves#post-1825773 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 23:31:27 +0000 Thistle 1825773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, the first two items are keepers. Not terribly surprising as I love Sejour tees (have them in a rainbow of colors), and Karen Kane is a favorite.</p> <p>The other two I am less sure about. DD1 thinks I look like a princess in them, and DH likes them. I just can't decide if I could wear them to work or if the sleeves would drive me batty. I've never worn anything like this before, although it clearly appeals to me as I bought two to try. :)</p> <p>If they are strictly date night, I may return them. I have a lot of date night clothes that don't see wear. And my weekends tend to be athleisure pants (ducks) and a tee. Maybe a cardi when it's cold. </p>
