I don't really want a duplicate of the top, so I have to choose between a deep salmon color and black. The salmon looks better on me (though the black certainly does not look bad), but I was really looking for a black top, since I don't have many black tops. But I don't have *any* salmon tops! Maybe it would be helpful for me to think about the seasons, like kkards suggested. I think both will be equally useful in my wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1259540 Fri, 23 May 2014 20:25:43 +0000 Aida 1259540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely! I vote keep the chartreuse and cobalt. The cobalt will be plenty dark for fall, and it sounds like you have more than enough black tops already </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1259358 Fri, 23 May 2014 16:44:31 +0000 kkards 1259358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>my 1st thought was given your climate, keep the black, as it will play well in the fall when the temperatures are still warm(ish), but you want to start wearing fall. i'd say its a toss up between the other 2, i like them both, and if you have room for both, keep both. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1259332 Fri, 23 May 2014 16:18:34 +0000 LACeleste 1259332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look so incredible Adelfa! &nbsp;I do not think you will regret keeping 3. &nbsp;Do you have another interesting black top? &nbsp;If not, go for it!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1259318 Fri, 23 May 2014 15:49:54 +0000 Anonymous 1259318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chartreuse and Cobalt. Or all three? Who me.. enabling? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1259317 Fri, 23 May 2014 15:49:28 +0000 Adelfa 1259317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Angie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1259314 Fri, 23 May 2014 15:46:54 +0000 Angie 1259314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well aren't you a casually chic, lady. Wow. You wear that top soooo much better than the model. Glad things worked out. You are very fab. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1259288 Fri, 23 May 2014 15:10:34 +0000 Adelfa 1259288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Carole, I found this top exceeded my expectations in terms of fit, comfort, and flattery. It's just a great top.</p> <p>If I like a top and it comes in black, I pretty much have to get it. It's like a sickness Even though I'm trying not to do as much black! It will be so useful for "column of color" looks! But again, it's interesting to me how in the pics the black seems definitely the least flattering of the three. Oh dear!</p> <p>Also, I hate top shopping. So I tend to buy multiples if I find one that works. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1259275 Fri, 23 May 2014 14:58:28 +0000 kellygirl 1259275@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the green. I'd probably keep either black or blue but not both. It's going to be tough to choose though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1259272 Fri, 23 May 2014 14:56:03 +0000 Carole 1259272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tough decision....love all three options, but must keep the lime green! My second choice would be the cobalt, unless you are needing black...if you are like me you already have lots of other black tops in your closet! Great versatile top, need to check it out for myself! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1259267 Fri, 23 May 2014 14:53:17 +0000 Ingunn 1259267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are you keeping them all, then? I think you will find each and every one useful. Great and versatile tops! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1259262 Fri, 23 May 2014 14:49:32 +0000 Adelfa 1259262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise, the armhole is quite close fitting, surprising for such a fluid fit top! On me anyway.</p> <p>It usually doesn't work super well for me to buy ahead, but you are so right about the CA fall conundrum. I think it could be a worthwhile strategy to look out in the Spring for cute lightweight tops in Fall colors! Sort of the companion strategy to Angie's Winter-time buying warm tops in Spring colors! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258950 Fri, 23 May 2014 06:11:15 +0000 CocoLion 1258950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No bra peeking means it might work for me! &nbsp;Also I assume that goes for the armhole area as well.</p> <p>That's a good idea about putting it away. &nbsp;There comes a time, late August, definitely most of September, half of October -- when it can still be hot in California but you want to move into fall style. &nbsp;Lightweight clothes in darker colors are the answer.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258937 Fri, 23 May 2014 05:20:43 +0000 Adelfa 1258937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise, no bra, not even close, and I often have trouble with necklines. The green is a little sheer which I didn't notice in my initial love for the color. I'll keep it anyway because it's such a happy color and wear it not at work, or perhaps with a lightweight topper? I totally KWYM about duplicates. I did a quick list of potential outfits and the black is just too useful to pass up. The cobalt to me is lovely but not very summery. Maybe put it away and get it out when the green seems unseasonal? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258932 Fri, 23 May 2014 05:06:06 +0000 CocoLion 1258932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the green top on you, that's definitely a keeper. &nbsp;I've been considering that top as well, it looks like it would be good for my work environment as well. &nbsp;When you bend over, would I be able to see your bra?</p> <p>I'm not sure about keeping all three. &nbsp;Maybe keep one more color. &nbsp;Whenever I go the duplicates route, I tire of the style faster than if I just had one (unless it is extremely basic like a button down shirt or a crew neck tee). &nbsp;I would keep the color that is the most useful "tool." &nbsp;I love the cobalt color but I also love the black one, because it looks so fab with white. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258927 Fri, 23 May 2014 04:54:46 +0000 Adelfa 1258927@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the opinions! I have been wearing chartreuse lately and whenever I do, people say "That's a good color on you!" It seems so odd to me as I love it but thought I couldn't wear it. Thanks for the corroboration!</p> <p>Beth Ann, thanks for the suggestion to think of outfits! I will do that.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258918 Fri, 23 May 2014 04:41:10 +0000 Beth Ann 1258918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great style for you!&nbsp; I'd keep them all, but only if you can make each of them a part of 3 good outfits.&nbsp; They would be good for casual and office wear, as long as the sleeve will work under a jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258913 Fri, 23 May 2014 04:26:47 +0000 calmwave 1258913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chartreuse!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258909 Fri, 23 May 2014 04:17:45 +0000 rachylou 1258909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh! #1 just lights you up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258893 Fri, 23 May 2014 03:39:45 +0000 MsMaven 1258893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote keep them all. &nbsp;The tops look different in each color--each one gives off a different vibe.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258864 Fri, 23 May 2014 03:03:03 +0000 carter 1258864@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely keep the charteuse! I'm not a cobalt fan, so I'll defer on that one. If you don't have a black work top that says "summer", I'd keep this one. It's so hard to find a light and airy black top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258857 Fri, 23 May 2014 02:57:40 +0000 Debbie 1258857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can you keep them all. The black would be great in the early fall under a jacket. Cobalt is a one of my favorite colors and looks great on you. The lime look spectacular on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258856 Fri, 23 May 2014 02:55:34 +0000 Gigi 1258856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely keep the chartreuse. Of the other two, I think the cobalt looks a bit better on you, but if you don't have much black in your closet I might keep the black simply for variety (it sounds like you have a lot of cobalt?). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258839 Fri, 23 May 2014 02:42:12 +0000 Jeanie 1258839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great top! &nbsp;I really like 1 &amp; 2. &nbsp;The chartreuse is my favorite! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258838 Fri, 23 May 2014 02:39:05 +0000 Gracie 1258838@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote the Lime and Cobalt! They seem to fit great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258837 Fri, 23 May 2014 02:39:03 +0000 Echo 1258837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you send one back, it should be the black. Between the other two, I have a hard time choosing. I think I may actually like the lime one on you better, but cobalt is a fave of mine so I have a hard time being objective when it comes to choosing between cobalt and anything else! But I think both colours just brighten you up and look far better than the black in this case (and I am usually a fan of black). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-pick-shipment-which-tops-to-keep#post-1258834 Fri, 23 May 2014 02:34:59 +0000 Adelfa 1258834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We had a recent heat wave, and I realized I didn't have good work tops for the heat. Luckily Angie posted some summer tops right around then. There was one that appealed to me and I ordered it in three colors! They came today and I popped them on over the pants, belt and sandals I was already wearing. (Note: every single article of clothing pictured, tops, pants, belt, and sandals, are Angie picks!)</p> <p>I love this top. I love the drape. I love the split neck which eliminates gapping. I love the comfy knitted back.</p> <p>Over to you--which color(s) deserve a place in my closet?</p> <p>1. my new favorite color--lime/chartreuse/yellow green/not sure what to call it!<br />2. my all time favorite color, cobalt!<br />3. my trusty standby, black.</p> <p>tops--Pleione via Nordy<br />pants--ON (got them in olive too, sized up in white)<br />belt--CK<br />sandals--SE Trina </p>
