Keep! You've received super suggestions.</p> <p>I’m glad you’re not attached to the body warmer cause it’s not your best. Seems to fit quite well though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aj-2-pre-ylf-tops#post-31971 Fri, 24 Oct 2008 14:46:44 +0000 Patience 31971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe I'm weird but I actually like the vest. I do think you have to feel like it's you and that a turtleneck would be better. But I like it because it really stands out. The tunic is nice but not as interesting to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aj-2-pre-ylf-tops#post-31956 Fri, 24 Oct 2008 04:02:05 +0000 Anonymous 31956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm agreeing with the others and also think a chunky necklace or scarf would look great with the tunic. Purple or fushia with the brown would be beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aj-2-pre-ylf-tops#post-31946 Fri, 24 Oct 2008 02:01:36 +0000 Dani 31946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AJ, I agree with the others that the tunic is really nice. I think you have quite a few possibilities for colors underneath. That will be a fun piece. </p> <p>I agree with your decision to let the vest go, I think you have other things that are more "you" and do more justice to your figure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aj-2-pre-ylf-tops#post-31921 Fri, 24 Oct 2008 00:13:54 +0000 Amanda 31921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not at all attached to the vest. I've had it for years -- I think it might even be a hand-me down from my mom. And thanks for the honest feedback on it; that's why I love YLF, you all will let me know if something doesn't work!</p> <p>Since the brown sweater tunic got approval, I'll experiment with some other colors under it.</p> <p>The necklace and earrings are made by a jewelry company called "1928" -- they make vintage looking jewelry. I have a few necklaces by them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aj-2-pre-ylf-tops#post-31915 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 23:41:06 +0000 Becky 31915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AJ, I like the brown tunic and you've gotten some wonderful suggestions as to colors to pair with it.</p> <p>I don't think the tapestry vest does you justice; it hides your curves. I'm also not sure the higher neck is as flattering on you as the v-necks we've seen you in, but if you love it, maybe you could look into having the waist part taken in a bit to make the silhouette more shaped? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aj-2-pre-ylf-tops#post-31903 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 21:57:52 +0000 yublocka 31903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your brown tunic top and that whole outfit! As for matching colours with the neckline flecks, if you have to get that close up to see the colour, I think you shouldn't worry too much about co-ordinating with the flecks!</p> <p>Colours I love against dark brown are: purple, teal, apricot, beige, deep blue.</p> <p>As for accessories I wonder what a colourful chunkier necklace would look like? Or maybe a bright scarf?</p> <p>Re the vest in 2), I don't profess to know anything about vests so will not comment. Comparing the silhouettes from both outfits though I think it does add bulk, but then again most warmer clothes do, don't they? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aj-2-pre-ylf-tops#post-31897 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 21:44:09 +0000 Anonymous 31897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First picture, I thought wow Aj looks good in everything. Are that necklace and earrings really from 1926? Love!</p> <p>Second picture, I am a sucker for tapestry fabric. I love it, and I would be just like you, wondering if I should or shouldn't wear it. Right now, today, I do not think the style or the cut is the best, but if I were you I'd put it back in the closet and bring it out in another few years to see if it makes a resurgence.<br /> I have a tapestry fabric vest my Mom gave me many years ago. How could I get rid of something so beautiful, but I never wore it. It was too big for one thing. I just the other day put it in the give away box. Farewell, finally.<br /> If you truely love the fabric, rather than give it away, make a beautiful pillow out of it. Enjoy the fabric one way or another. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aj-2-pre-ylf-tops#post-31891 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 21:32:09 +0000 Tanya 31891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Antje, I like that brown tunic and I am not a fan of the vest. In addition to all the great suggestions Antje has already made, how about teal/turquoise for cami under the tunic? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aj-2-pre-ylf-tops#post-31882 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 20:48:12 +0000 Antje 31882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi AJ, I think the brown tunic sweater is nice. In addition to pink, how about yellow, red, or even green for a camisole color? Also, have you tried a belt with it? Not sure it would work, but might be worth a try.</p> <p>I'm not a fan of the vest. I think it is not a flattering piece of clothing; it reminds me of upholstery fabric. Sorry, I realize this is blunt, but I had a pretty immediate strong reaction. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aj-2-pre-ylf-tops#post-31877 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 19:48:02 +0000 Amanda 31877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This week I wore two pre-YLF tops and would like feedback on them. </p> <p>1) Brown DKNY sweater tunic -- with pink cami, skinny jeans, brown Privo flats, 1926 necklace and earrings.</p> <p><a href="http://i514.photobucket.com/albums/t346/aj-seattle/Outfits%2010-21%2010-22/IMG_1195.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i514.photobucket.com/al.....G_1195.jpg</a></p> <p>The sweater has reddish-gold threads in the neckline so I've had a difficult time deciding what color cami to wear with it and always default to the pink. Close-up of neckline with threads:</p> <p><a href="http://i514.photobucket.com/albums/t346/aj-seattle/Outfits%2010-21%2010-22/IMG_1198.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i514.photobucket.com/al.....G_1198.jpg</a></p> <p>2) Orvis tapestry vest -- with black long-sleeve tee, Joe's jeans, black pumps. I usually wear this vest over a black turtleneck top but mine is faded and I haven't replaced it yet.</p> <p><a href="http://i514.photobucket.com/albums/t346/aj-seattle/Outfits%2010-21%2010-22/IMG_1200.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i514.photobucket.com/al.....G_1200.jpg</a></p> <p>Thanks for your thoughts on whether these two tops work. </p>
