They're both gorgeous and would be so versatile.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-at-tops#post-1009144 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 20:52:13 +0000 Beth Ann 1009144@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Double Thank-You Post! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-at-tops#post-1009141 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 20:49:42 +0000 Beth Ann 1009141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the feedback -- I think I'll stalk for a week or so, and see if they do any of those online discount days.&nbsp; I will try both tops. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-at-tops#post-1009113 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 19:57:56 +0000 Inge 1009113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh absolutely, give both a try, Beth Ann. I'm also loving the idea of green for the second top for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-at-tops#post-1009087 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 19:34:45 +0000 Adelfa 1009087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To me the front-tying one is way too much going on for apple-y me, but I don't believe that's your figure type. I would be fascinated to see that one on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-at-tops#post-1009086 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 19:33:14 +0000 Angie 1009086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with your assessments. </p> <p>The wrap sweater is a no-brainer with your skirts, Beth Ann. We haven't seen that silhouette in stores for 5 years, and it's <b>such</b> a goodie on a curvy bod. Utterly delicious. But you'll never know until you try a new style, so I'm high fiving Kristen, Suz and Diane. I vote green in the top I featured in the post today. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-at-tops#post-1009071 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 19:17:32 +0000 Anonymous 1009071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh I like both and the teal sounds fab. Definitely try all variations. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-at-tops#post-1009059 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 18:51:40 +0000 Beth Ann 1009059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oddly enough, both of these tops are sold online only, although I could always return to the store.&nbsp; My first thought was, in the Angie pick, I'd go for the blue, but the green is lovely too, and goes nicely with my greys.&nbsp; Not sure if the green and black would be too "shades of the black + bright nineties. </p> <p>I am on team "try on everything at least 4 times in three sizes," so trying both might be right up my alley. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-at-tops#post-1009033 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 17:49:29 +0000 Kristin L 1009033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not Angie either, but I think both tops are very lovely. I think you should try them both if you're close by to a store. Are you on their mailing list? AT is good about sending out sale announcements.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-at-tops#post-1009032 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 17:45:43 +0000 Suz 1009032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not Angie -- but I agree with both your assessments. (That is, which one would flatter you more -- and that is a <b>lovely </b>top, by the way&nbsp;-- and which looks the most unusual).&nbsp;</p> <p><b>BUT</b>...you never know until you try it on, right? So why not give them both a bash in a store if you can get to one? Or simply order and return as necessary.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-at-tops#post-1009028 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 17:39:11 +0000 Beth Ann 1009028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Ann Taylor wrap top in today's blog post caught my eye.&nbsp; As I looked on the AT site, I noticed this sweater:</p> <p>(I could not grab and paste the picture from the site, just the link -- gotta find out what a "webloc" file ext. means).</p> <p><a href="http://www.anntaylor.com/wrap-sweater/312720?colorExplode=false&amp;skuId=14669477&amp;catid=cat1650013&amp;productPageType=fullPriceProducts&amp;defaultColor=5342" rel="nofollow">http://www.anntaylor.com/wrap-.....&#038;prod</a></p> <p>Oddly enough, I don't care for the cobalt, but love the red and teal.</p> <p>All the rules of figure flattery indicate that I'd do best in a v-neck.&nbsp; The 3/4 length sleeves add more structure and suit my "run warm" temp gauge.&nbsp; Still, the top from the blogpost strikes me as a little more modern and unusual:</p> <p><a href="http://www.anntaylor.com/crepe-wrap-top/318908?colorExplode=false&amp;skuId=14358999&amp;catid=cata000010&amp;productPageType=fullPriceProducts&amp;defaultColor=1212" rel="nofollow">http://www.anntaylor.com/crepe.....10&#038;pr</a></p> <p>I'll wait to try until AT launches a sale, but which would yout suggest for me, thinking about:<br />1.&nbsp; Figure flattery and color choices<br />2.&nbsp; Fit with my style<br />3.&nbsp; Versatility (dress up/ down, layering, etc)</p> <p> </p>
