I especially like the violet.</p> <p>If you want to try some funky color combos, how about:</p> <p>violet + lime green<br /> violet + orange<br /> violet + yellow </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-sweaters-too-small#post-67562 Tue, 26 May 2009 15:23:59 +0000 julijuli 67562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the magenta &#38; the grey - I agree that the fit is perfect - definitely not too tight! Great find! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-sweaters-too-small#post-67524 Tue, 26 May 2009 10:52:01 +0000 Kristen 67524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy's suggestion are excellent, especially magenta/navy, and grey/red-orange.</p> <p>Others:<br /> Magenta = grey, cream, paler pink<br /> Grey = navy, deep purple, fuschia, red, various shades of blue, green, yellow (You would have to play to find the right ones that contrast with the blues in that grey.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-sweaters-too-small#post-67501 Tue, 26 May 2009 05:27:11 +0000 marianne 67501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like both, too. What about grey with purple? I also second Joy's suggestions. Of course white or cream would look great too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-sweaters-too-small#post-67484 Tue, 26 May 2009 03:13:14 +0000 Anonymous 67484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great find! Both look good the way you are wearing them. I love that magenta color with navy. Actually both sweaters would be good with blues or turquoise/teal.<br /> The grey is neutral enough for anything. Your best shade of red would work too, as would orange/bittersweet or yellow/citron. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-sweaters-too-small#post-67477 Tue, 26 May 2009 02:38:47 +0000 tarzy 67477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great! I really love both colors. Any suggestions as to what colors to wear with each? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-sweaters-too-small#post-67444 Tue, 26 May 2009 00:15:33 +0000 Angie 67444@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The sky is going to fall down. That shade of magenta is KILLER on you, Tara! WELL DONE. I’m doing a happy dance! (I knew this colour would work so I’m gloating). The slate shade looks great too! </p> <p>I echo the lasses on the fit – works well over the bust. And I was going to suggest a proper belt but our clever April did that already. Good job April. I’d have preferred a longer sleeve – but you can’t have it all. I am over the moon that you're experimenting with colour! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-sweaters-too-small#post-67430 Mon, 25 May 2009 21:29:39 +0000 tarzy 67430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks. I have such "issues" with feeling like things are too tight at the bust. It's hard during the summer - not so easy to "hide." </p> <p>April - I hadn't thought of using a regular belt! I'll play around with that. </p> <p>Inge - thank you. I'll keep an eye on that brand for future dresses. Yours looks so fab on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-sweaters-too-small#post-67428 Mon, 25 May 2009 21:12:05 +0000 Inge 67428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They fit you very well Tara. Great find! And I don't care one bit if these are 'approved' colours or not', you look fantastic in both!</p> <p>By the way, I haven't gotten around to replying on my own threads, so I thought I'd answer your question here, lest you think I'd forgotten you.<br /> The dress I'm wearing in the pictures is by A.B.S. I bought it on Bluefly, it's this one:<br /> <a href="http://www.bluefly.com/ABS-grey-floral-jersey-v-neck-belted-dress/SEARCH/214376600/detail.fly" rel="nofollow">http://www.bluefly.com/ABS-gre.....detail.fly</a><br /> (wow, serious price reduction, but only an XS left-(</p> <p>The material is incredibly soft and it's extremely comfortable. It really is one of those dresses that doesn't need much else. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-sweaters-too-small#post-67427 Mon, 25 May 2009 20:51:45 +0000 April 67427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tara, would you consider using a contrasting belt rather than the matching sashes? I think these fit you fine, I just think that sweater belts in general lack a little zing. </p> <p>For example, with the violet color, you're wearing black beneath -- how about a narrow black belt? To me, that would pull things together. With the gray/blue, I think I would prefer white underneath to black. You could still do a black belt, and with white pants and some silver jewelry, you'd look summery and cool. (My tendency with an outift such as I just described would be to add black sandals, but that might be because I'm not confident about putting colors together.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-sweaters-too-small#post-67426 Mon, 25 May 2009 20:19:15 +0000 sinead 67426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think they're too small- and look really nice on you. I prefer the violet. The grey is fine but might work better with a color other than black. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-sweaters-too-small#post-67419 Mon, 25 May 2009 19:48:21 +0000 taylor 67419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They don't look tight , not pulling at all. They are super cute on you! And I like both colors on you also!:) isn't that such a great length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-sweaters-too-small#post-67413 Mon, 25 May 2009 19:25:32 +0000 Louise 67413@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think they look too tight- the colours are lovely especially the violet one. The blue- grey is a great neutral x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-sweaters-too-small#post-67408 Mon, 25 May 2009 18:42:20 +0000 tarzy 67408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are from Old Navy. Are they too tight at the bust? They're size "M."<br /> Thanks so much!</p> <p>violet:<br /> <a href="http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/oo313/tarzyYLF/sweaters/IMG_1166.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i387.photobucket.com/al.....G_1166.jpg</a></p> <p>I don't know if this is an "approved" color for me - soft blue-grey:<br /> <a href="http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/oo313/tarzyYLF/sweaters/IMG_1167.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i387.photobucket.com/al.....G_1167.jpg</a> </p>
