Anybody following you is going to be annoyed because you'd be flooding their feed. Ditto on Twitter. If you don't have any followers yet, I don't think that would be a problem. But Pinterest users might know something I don't. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-765772 Sun, 04 Nov 2012 23:07:41 +0000 Parsley 765772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this, and think it will look great on all you lovely hourglasses!</p> <p>A question for Claire: Why is it not polite to pin a bunch of stuff?<br /> I guess I didn't even know that there was Pinterest etiquette! Does she mean that you shouldn't repin too much of other people's stuff?</p> <p>If it's your own finds why should anybody care how much you pin?<br /> Sorry to be clueless! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-765766 Sun, 04 Nov 2012 23:01:13 +0000 Ariadne 765766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this. I don't think I have any shirts that would work, but I'm going to try! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-765739 Sun, 04 Nov 2012 21:54:42 +0000 amiable 765739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm pinning it too - I have a few shirts on my 'to make thinner' alterations pile that this might be perfect for, while they wait. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646973 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 22:45:00 +0000 Deborah 646973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this look and Steph your version with a softer blouse looks lovely. We have a morning show host here that often wears her blouses like this. She is a curvaceous woman and it is just so flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646952 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 22:06:57 +0000 rae 646952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool! I accidentally made a shirt do this when I tried to tailor it at home. :P</p> <p>Hm, I'm definitely going to try it with a couple of loose button fronts at home! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646887 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 20:06:49 +0000 RoseandJoan 646887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the haircut was for a role but it may be effecting her clothing choices. Off to try and google the image. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646731 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 17:20:43 +0000 Anonymous 646731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just saw a pic of Anne Hathaway wearing a shirt like this. Now I can't find it. Anyhow, perhaps she drew inspiration from Audrey as well, with her short pixie hair now and all. Hmmm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646730 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 17:20:33 +0000 Angie 646730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want to see the hot messes! </p> <p>Claire, Audrey was not curvy at all. I think this look will work on your bod!</p> <p>Nice one, Steph :)</p> <p>Jules, my pleasure. You and I will experiment together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646718 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 17:05:20 +0000 RoseandJoan 646718@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Claire, we both looked like a hot mess last night I tried the look with my roomiest shirt but I lost too much length. I am considering getting a white shirt for the purpose and sewing some ribbon on to the inside seem of one side and another ribbon to the opposite outer edge which would allow me to secure one part in place while casually tucking the other.</p> <p>Steph, thank you for the illustration, your soft oversized blouse looks beautiful.</p> <p>Jenava, I really like the idea of using a brooch to contrast the relaxed with the ornate.</p> <p>Angie thank you very much for pinning the look in the first instance! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646629 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 15:03:49 +0000 Anonymous 646629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done, Steph! I tried this last night and it was a big, hot mess! I think it might work better on gals with some curves. I would need to borrow DH's shirt, or get one dedicated to this look (and XL). I agree that snaps would wind up being obvious. And I don't think I could relax without them. *sigh* Oh well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646624 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 14:59:56 +0000 mrseccentric 646624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I loooove this look and have been doing it for decades!!! It's an awesome way for an hourglass/busty shaped lady to wear a button down shirt without looking swallowed up by fabric.</p> <p>I've found the key is to make sure the shirt is big enough (a little or a lot oversized) and thinner, less stiff fabric helps as well (this blouse is silk crepe de chine). In my experience things will stay in place just fine as long as you have a fairly tight (not strangling, but snug) waistband/belt to tuck everything into. </p> <p>The problem with using snaps or safety pins is that it's almost impossible to use them without it being obvious, thus destroying the whole casual 'this old thing, i just threw it on' vibe. I opt for just being aware of my clothing, using a snug belt, and adjusting when necessary (maybe every 3-4 hours).</p> <p>HTH! can't wait to see Angie and the rest of you try it! steph </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646255 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 00:47:53 +0000 Suz 646255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh. LOVE. </p> <p>I need to try this, too. I have a purple gingham boyfriend shirt that this might work well with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646239 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 00:19:46 +0000 Aida 646239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Neat effect! If the shirt were long enough and you tied around the waist, I wonder if you could actually tie the ends together at the back? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646193 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 23:09:44 +0000 Jenava 646193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did this with a sweater (it was $20 and pure wool, but and XL). The sweater is gone now, but I would actually tuck the whole thing in and it stayed well...I also used a brooch at about waist height to keep it in place. It looks like this is somehow knotted in the back at the side? I wonder if a nicely placed button would help, if one were to permanently dedicate a shirt to this look... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646181 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 22:43:22 +0000 Anonymous 646181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've never seen this picture before. It looks like it's a regular shirt (not the "wrap" shirts of the last decade or so). I'm keen to try this too. I have a few unfitted shirts that might be big enough for a generous wrap. A DIY project for sure....it might require a few well-placed snaps for security. </p> <p>Thanks for sharing Julie! I'm new to Pinterest and just clicked to follow Angie. Over the weekend I had a marathon pinning session (my DD later told me it's not polite to do this!) and I pinned a lot of Audrey and Grace. A few Diana as well. Loved her casual outfits. Cheers! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646118 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 20:51:33 +0000 Diana 646118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a cool look! I bet with some safety pins it should stay pretty much in place. </p> <p>Maybe i should try this. All shirts that fit me in the bust and hips are too big in the waist anyway, and this would use up some of the extra material there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646109 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 20:46:22 +0000 Lori 646109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks very cool, and very Angie.</p> <p>Audrey is just such a timeless beauty. I adore her! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646101 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 20:37:28 +0000 Angie 646101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:).

I have a few that might work, although it may all shift about and drive me bananas.</p> <p>Keep me posted on your experiment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-have-you-tried-the-audrey-wrapped-shirt-look-yet#post-646039 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 19:21:17 +0000 RoseandJoan 646039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been nosying around your Pinterest boards and noticed you wished to try the below Audrey look, have you tried it yet? If so did it stay in place and did you wear your regular size? I'm so desperate to try this look with a white shirt and jeans.</p> <p>Thank you </p>
