I don't see you sporting a voluminous, roomy woven shirt. I adore this uncomplicated look with a touch of sporty in that adorable knit top. You <b>need</b> that green top! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2183114 Sun, 28 Mar 2021 13:55:29 +0000 Helena 2183114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anchie, everything you put on just looks so perfect on you.

I don’t see it in your WIW pics (and there’s nothing wrong with that.) &nbsp;I see gentle body con and tailored with some fluidity as more your style signature.&nbsp;</p> <div><br /></div><div>The outfit is composed of solid basics that will mix and match with everything else you’ve been collecting. &nbsp;I would like to see this outfit styled with your colourful patterned button down from 2 or 3 months ago!</p> <p>This one&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pattern-mix-outfit-1">https://youlookfab.com/welookf.....x-outfit-1</a></div></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182909 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 15:24:31 +0000 Anonymous 2182909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome outfit! Love the short sleeve sweater! Yes to more colors </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182907 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 15:19:37 +0000 cat2 2182907@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the skirt and sweater top, they will be great essentials moving forward. On the volume thing, I found a knit shirt dress with a draped set in top that provides some volume but without entirely abandoning my shape. Maybe something similar in a top? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182906 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 15:16:29 +0000 anchie 2182906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>slim cat - I am not sure if I will get the green sweater even though I am thinking about it. I must admit that this approach of monthly outfits is keeping me focused and on target. And I currently don’t have plan for an outfit with the green sweater:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182902 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 15:10:15 +0000 slim cat 2182902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the green version of that polo sweater - great spring color. Report later if you'll decide to give it a go. Lightweight sweaters with short sleeves or sleeveless is less available this year ( or so it seems to me ). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182895 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 14:40:30 +0000 anchie 2182895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie for the offer, I much appreciate it. Maybe I should have posted photos of the shirts I didn’t like to better understand why, but they were so bad, I could not take them off quickly enough </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182887 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 14:21:36 +0000 Angie 2182887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER</p> <p>You look very Dutch in this outfit,<b> anchie</b>. Hip, blue &amp; white, practical and casual. All you need is an orange bag! A good thing in my book ;)</p> <p>Happy to help you find the right shirts in April..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182868 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 12:43:37 +0000 April 2182868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anchie, how could I resist commenting here...</p> <p>Major thumbs up from me.&nbsp; You've inspired me to finally part with a denim pencil skirt that I have kept because even though I no longer wear pencil skirts, it has a smooth front (i.e., no annoyingly huge brass button poking through tops).&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Time to thank it for its service and kiss it goodbye.&nbsp; Thank you for the inspiration! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182866 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 12:37:57 +0000 kkards 2182866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. I’m not usually a denim skirt lover, but this is just fab! Might be one of my favorites that you’ve posted. Every thing just seems to work together so well, you’ve taken basics and made them shine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182861 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 12:10:58 +0000 Liesbeth 2182861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great pieces, and I do like the nineties simplicity of the outfit 'sans' topper.<br /> I love your monthly outfit reports - not boring at all! I may even be veering into that direction too :). But also think you need to stay flexible; if you find 4 great pieces like you did here that just don't all go together that well, you have still managed a great wardrobe addition. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182859 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 11:40:13 +0000 Star (Lise) 2182859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, I am guessing that lovely green will look fabulous with your hair colour. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182857 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 11:30:13 +0000 anchie 2182857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all.<br /> The shirt is actually more like sweater because of the fabric.<br /> There are 2 more colors available on deep discount, I am tempted:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182854 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 11:18:07 +0000 Janet 2182854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I need to find that shirt in black! </p> <p>I like this and find the simplicity appealing. Add some jewelry and you’re good to go! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182847 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 10:55:41 +0000 Synne 2182847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the "simple" outfit a lot! The polo shirt would be too masculine looking on me (in my head at least), but it looks preppy and sporty on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182843 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 09:57:51 +0000 anchie 2182843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cardiff girl - I had a bad experience with Lyocell - my cargo pants in that fabric didn’t survive first very gentle washing. But maybe not all Lycocell is the same - do you have better luck with it? Mine pants were from Zara - maybe not great quality to begin with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182842 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 09:53:28 +0000 N 2182842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks nice on the model but it always does! we'll have to see how it works on me...i'll post pictures once I have them, and hopefully a suitable pair of jeans that actually fit. I think I may have found a good pair in the unlikeliest of places but that is next month's purchase. We are nearly in April though so shouldn't be too long before I can buy. Just hope I don't have to return many things. It takes so long to get here that by the time I've got them back and got my refund a month has passed </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182838 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 09:32:21 +0000 Cardiff girl 2182838@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this look ,probably because it’s something I would wear myself!<br />Have you tried a shirt in your normal size but in a more fluid fabric something like Lyocell &nbsp;or tencel?This will give you fluidity but without having to size up.l find it difficult to get the fluid look myself as an oversized look isn’t for me but using a more fluid fabric works. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182829 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 08:00:07 +0000 anchie 2182829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>N - this is really nice shirt, I hope it works for you.<br /> slim cat - I fully agree that it is too simple and I doubt that I will ever wear it like it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182828 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 07:42:39 +0000 slim cat 2182828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like polo sweater with the denim skirt ( polished smart look ) but with navy jacket it feels a bit too simple if I may put it like that. The bag in some other color or small scarf would add more fun elements to outfit.&nbsp;<br />Your nail polish is very pretty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182824 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 07:23:32 +0000 N 2182824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh all lovely pieces! For the shirts, what about having "baggy" ones but tucked in at the waist? I bought one a few months ago that I was probably going to return but it was delivered to a forwarding address in the US over a month ago and husband still hasn't asked for it to be sent here, so ran out of time to return...i'll be having to make it work or I suppose sell it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-outfit#post-2182822 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 07:11:18 +0000 anchie 2182822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>April is almost here and I have just completed my April outfit. What struggle it has been and I am not sure if the end result is that great. But I am happy with individual pieces, even though they don’t make a great outfit together. Everything is fairly basic and is filling my wardrobe holes. </p> <p>I have struggled the most with the top. I really really wanted to get quite roomy shirt as Angie is calling it, but I miserably failed. I ordered and returned many and they were all laughable on me. I didn’t want a fitted one, since I am not wearing shirts to work - my office is too cold for that. But I don’t know how to get fluid fit right, or maybe I am just not used to the look on me?? I mostly felt like wearing pajama top, especially in the striped versions. So I gave up on shirts for now, and got this short sleeve polo sweater instead that can use some ironing :)<br /> I may resume shirt search another month, but I need a break from it at the moment. I am thinking maybe a new dress is in order for May?<br /> So what do you think of my progress so far? I am hoping that it will get more exciting in the second half of the year after I have covered all my essential needs. </p>
