I do have black bottoms too - knit ponte pants and am thinking of the BR sloans in black or the pattern posted yesterday. I guess I just like the idea of a slimmish bottom, drapey tee, comfortable topper and trendy shoes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-et-al#post-1226523 Fri, 18 Apr 2014 16:39:04 +0000 Angie 1226523@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah. That's a different ensemble - not todays's ensemble. That's why I was confused.&nbsp;</p> <p>Dark bottoms worn with&nbsp;low contrast footwear is more elongating. So if that's what you're after - that's the winning combination. Personally, I prefer to bookend my light hair because I like to add lightness to my outfits. It's great to have choices isn't it. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-et-al#post-1226513 Fri, 18 Apr 2014 16:32:42 +0000 kerry 1226513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No, not really denim on denim. Maybe drapey top, denim bottoms and moto? I find it easier to wear denim bottoms than anything else. I'm thinking rolled relaxed skinnies with a caged sandal. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-et-al#post-1226487 Fri, 18 Apr 2014 16:15:00 +0000 Angie 1226487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you mean paring blue jeans with a denim jacket? And what style of jeans?&nbsp;</p> <p>Gap has great drapey tees at the moment.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-et-al#post-1226471 Fri, 18 Apr 2014 16:00:38 +0000 kerry 1226471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh no! Barbie-sized tees are not helpful! But then, neither are bed bugs! Thanks for the tip on H&amp;M. Will check it out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-et-al#post-1226402 Fri, 18 Apr 2014 14:40:05 +0000 jackiec 1226402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice sandals! I wonder about the "correct" answer also. I personally have a pair of nude BCBG cage gladiator sandals that I picked up at a sample sale a few years ago. I'm partial to nude for its leg lengthening properties. I find them to be super versatile.</p> <p>As for drapey-tees, I had some good luck at H&amp;M (Vancouver) last year with some linen blend ones - one white and one peach-ish. I wore them to death last summer. Then, after a vacation where I was convinced there may have been bed-bugs (turned out to be a false alarm), I HOT washed and dried all the clothes I had in my suitcase, and shrank those tees to Barbie size. Sorry a little off topic, but I have my eyes out for replacements too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-et-al#post-1226352 Fri, 18 Apr 2014 13:08:47 +0000 pil 1226352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good question - I'll be interested in the responses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-et-al#post-1226346 Fri, 18 Apr 2014 12:53:35 +0000 kerry 1226346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm loving Angie's trendy casual classic ensemble. I think I'd like to try it with jeans instead of black bottoms. Has anyone had luck finding drapey tees/tops at a particular retailer? </p> <p>I'm thinking of purchasing a pair of flat caged sandals to go with cropped jeans/pants for a trendier look. Should I buy black to provide low contrast with denim or black bottoms or nude/brown to lengthen leg line and bookend lighter hair? I do not have slim ankles or a svelt figure so I'm looking for optimal figure flattery while sporting the trend.</p> <p>Thanks!</p> <p><a href="http://www.thebay.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/en/thebay/shoes/womens-sandals/atrium-sandals-0016-atrium--24" rel="nofollow">http://www.thebay.com/webapp/w.....atrium--24</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.thebay.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/en/thebay/shoes/womens-sandals/sheela-0272-sheela--24" rel="nofollow">http://www.thebay.com/webapp/w.....sheela--24</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.thebay.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/en/thebay/shoes/womens-sandals/kensil" rel="nofollow">http://www.thebay.com/webapp/w.....als/kensil</a> </p>
