I have a couple grey skirts, black skirts, one navy and one red--I don't think either of those will work. The only skirt I have that coordinates color-wise is one of those peasant brown skirts from a couple of years ago. I confess I have kept one well beyond when they were in fashion. I wear it with knee-high brown boots and a round neck sweater on rainy days. I can't imagine this jacket working with the tiered peasant skirt. I think the denim skirt is a great suggestion. I'll keep it in mind as I shop over the next few weeks/months. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anthropologie-orphans-keep-or-toss#post-19743 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 18:53:02 +0000 Dani 19743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Amy, what does the brown jacket look like with a lower neckline for the layer underneath? As for skirt shape, I would say pencil skirt or simple a-line skirt would work. Do you have a denim skirt to try with it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anthropologie-orphans-keep-or-toss#post-19716 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 04:30:33 +0000 amy29 19716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the feedback. I had to smile when I read "vote the blue off the island." It makes it so much easier to put it in the pile for Salvation Army now! I had never thought of a skirt for the brown jacket, but I like that idea. What kind of shape would it need to have? I don't have much variety in a complimentary color, but I'll see what I can come up with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anthropologie-orphans-keep-or-toss#post-19701 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 02:38:29 +0000 Alecia 19701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I too like the brown but vote the blue off the island. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anthropologie-orphans-keep-or-toss#post-19696 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 02:22:27 +0000 Sihaya 19696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Amy - I too like the brown jacket but probably a better length for a skirt than pants. I would vote for tossing the blue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anthropologie-orphans-keep-or-toss#post-19678 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 01:52:16 +0000 Angie 19678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for posting pics Amy!</p> <p>I do not prefer the blue jacket. It’s quite “clown-like” worn this way. It might look better with a longer layer underneath and layers poking out on top and through the armholes, but I have my reservations. Prove me wrong and show us a picture? </p> <p>Brown jacket will look nice over a skirt. Do you have one? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anthropologie-orphans-keep-or-toss#post-19666 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 00:48:02 +0000 Anonymous 19666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think both jackets are cute and would look good over a turtleneck that hits lower on the hips than the jacket does. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anthropologie-orphans-keep-or-toss#post-19642 Sat, 09 Aug 2008 23:26:04 +0000 Nicole 19642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Amy...I think the brown top looks nice the way you are wearing it. It would also look nice with cream pants for the fall/winter--and a bright cami--like orange--underneath.</p> <p>The blue top is confusing me. It's kind of short to wear with jeans--not sure if a longer cami underneath, the way you did with the brown top, would help? Or maybe try it with a straight skirt? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anthropologie-orphans-keep-or-toss#post-19631 Sat, 09 Aug 2008 22:08:38 +0000 amy29 19631@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I'm a sucker for the Anthropologie sale rack. Too often I end up with items that I just can't seem to work into my wardrobe. Here are two that I'd love for a consensus on--keep or toss? If keep, I really don't know how to wear them, so I'd really appreciate ideas. In the photos, I just tried to at least pair them with the appropriate type of bottom for their shape, but in general I feel like I have no idea how to wear them in a truly flattering, sophisticated way. What do you all think? (By the way, this time I used a Photobucket account since IE doesn't play well with my .Mac account, so for those of you who couldn't view my last pics, these should work.) </p> <p>Blue Top<br /> <a href="http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee359/amy29_album/IMG_0003.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i535.photobucket.com/al.....G_0003.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee359/amy29_album/IMG_0004.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i535.photobucket.com/al.....G_0004.jpg</a></p> <p>Brown Top<br /> <a href="http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee359/amy29_album/IMG_0005.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i535.photobucket.com/al.....G_0005.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee359/amy29_album/IMG_0006.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i535.photobucket.com/al.....G_0006.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee359/amy29_album/IMG_0007.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i535.photobucket.com/al.....G_0007.jpg</a></p> <p>Thanks for the feedback!
