It makes me look like I have boobs growing out of my double chin. I try to lessen the impact by pairing it with a longer length necklace &amp; throwing a jacket on top. I have a couple of the layering turtlenecks from the Gap from last winter &amp; for some reason, the neckline on those are not high so at least I don't get the double chin phenomenon. Other than that, I have switched to cowl neck options. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-turtlenecks-for-all-bodies#post-116331 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 03:37:50 +0000 Queen Mum 116331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>heres a link- its about busty gals, but some of the same principles should apply<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2009/12/01/wearing-high-necklines-with-a-larger-bust/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2009/12/.....rger-bust/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-turtlenecks-for-all-bodies#post-116330 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 03:33:51 +0000 Queen Mum 116330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it also has some to do with bust size. I would think the perfect body for a TN would be a smaller busted long neck gal.<br /> I am not big, but not small busted, and don't have a long neck (IMO). I own one turtle neck and wear it when I'm really in need of warmth, and I have to wear an open jacket and long necklace to help with the elongating effect. There is a fairly recent blog post on this too. I"llsee if I can find it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-turtlenecks-for-all-bodies#post-116328 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 03:19:09 +0000 Maya 116328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie has mentioned in the past that turtlenecks and other high necklines are best avoided by short necks. I have found this to be true as well. My mom, who has a short neck, really hates them. Not only were they not flattering, but she found them uncomfortable. Too much fabric in a small space.</p> <p>Average neck can probably get away with them but I don't know if it's the most flattering option. Still, sometimes we all need a change of pace. I wear them despite being busty so who knows. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-turtlenecks-for-all-bodies#post-116327 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 03:13:23 +0000 fathenry 116327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can turtlenecks be worn by all body types? What about those of us with short or average neck? Thanks! </p>
