I think it was the cardi throwing me off. &nbsp;Will retry the sweater with something else. Maybe it was all too flowy for my liking with the top and the sweater. If everyone thinks the proportions look right.</p> <p>The pants in 1 are &nbsp;too short they were always kinda fringe pants and now they are gone. The&nbsp;pants in 2 are the correct length - This is something I am neurotic about is pant length.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-what-is-wrong-with-the-outfit#post-1339173 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 18:35:03 +0000 Angie 1339173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that the pants in #1 are too short. How long is the pair in #2?&nbsp;</p> <p>I don't think the cropped cardi is dated. But it will look better with dresses and skirts. More proportional.&nbsp;</p> <p>From what I can see in #2, the proportions look good.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-what-is-wrong-with-the-outfit#post-1339138 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 17:07:13 +0000 Suz 1339138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreeing that #2 is a nice look on you. And, what Alana said about your hair! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-what-is-wrong-with-the-outfit#post-1339019 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 11:47:40 +0000 missvee 1339019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the blue sweater but it seems like more of a cropped length, so I wonder if it would look better over a longer top, say mid or low hip length? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-what-is-wrong-with-the-outfit#post-1339014 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 11:37:05 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1339014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know the pictures don't tell the full story but I thought #2 looked really good on you. &nbsp;The proportions are not significantly different to the first outfit but it seemed to work a bit better. &nbsp;Having said that, I do think both worked quite well. &nbsp;I think it may have been&nbsp;the sweater.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-what-is-wrong-with-the-outfit#post-1338921 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 03:04:37 +0000 Alana in Canada 1338921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't see anything wrong with either picture. Details are hard to make out--and I'd prefer you were facing the camera so I could see where the top falls better, but both of these are rather nice looks for you. Flats are great--how do you feel about rolling the hem of your trousers? I love your hair, frannieb! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-what-is-wrong-with-the-outfit#post-1338888 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 02:05:25 +0000 Jaime 1338888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The colors are hard to see especially in #1 but I like #2 - the color combination looks great.&nbsp;Maybe a slightly shorter top under the sweater (if the jeans are high waisted enough to handle it? Or a slightly longer blue sweater?&nbsp;Hmm, I will watch and see what everyone says along with you Frannie. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-what-is-wrong-with-the-outfit#post-1338881 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 01:57:32 +0000 frannieb 1338881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I loved the Friday ensemble look and gave it a go.</p> <p>Outfit 1 - maroon pants, light blue top and a denim topper - hated the look when I saw the pictures (pants went into the give away pile - they are a smidge to short)</p> <p>Outfit 2 - Changed pants, same light blue top added an old old old EF topper. Liked it at home, then hated at work and when I relooked at the pictures<br />I think the EF topper is dated and old and I should give away.<br />What is wrong with these outfits - I know they don't work but trying to figure out what it is.</p> <p>Ignore the shoes - I was going for super comfort and had to wear flats for what I had planned for the day. My feet hate flats and these are the only ones I have in this sort of metallic color that my feet will tolerate for the day.<br />Lots of questions - thank you for all feedback.</p> <p> </p>
