So I don’t need to do much with my hands. I do love the slouchy look, just wish it were a few inches smaller all around. </p> <p>So, with all the positive reactions, I decided to keep the shrug. If nothing else, I guess it’s a high demand item (but not super expensive) so I bet I could resell on Poshmark if it doesn’t pan out. </p> <p>I’m feeling less in love with the silk shirt after looking at the side view photo. But it’s so interesting. I should make up my mind today because I have to mail back the pieces of that +J order that didn’t pan out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/balloon-jeans-and-j#post-2186531 Tue, 13 Apr 2021 16:08:45 +0000 Angie 2186531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER jeans!&nbsp;</p> <p>I LOVE the first EF top. That's beautifully Japanese- looking.&nbsp;</p> <p>I like the idea of an avant-garde shrug, but this one is too big.&nbsp;</p> <p>Silk shirt is a thumbs up too!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/balloon-jeans-and-j#post-2186504 Tue, 13 Apr 2021 15:13:16 +0000 Jonesy 2186504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the jeans and the silk shirt! The shirt seems to fit in well with your aesthetic, IMHO. I also love the shrug, but I wonder about its functionality, since you mention you'd like to wear it while you're at your computer. I personally *love* a very long sleeve, but would you be able to keep these particular very long sleeves from bunching up at your wrists and hands while you work? Cuff them maybe? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/balloon-jeans-and-j#post-2186502 Tue, 13 Apr 2021 15:10:00 +0000 smittie 2186502@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice to see you! Cool stuff!<br /> I am loving Uniqlo this year. I got a J+ knit collared top which I’m loving. Easy.</p> <p>I am loving the cut of the Eileen Fisher top on you. The silk is a more classic cut. Looks more formal and dressy.</p> <p>Adore the shrug and how you’ve styled it with the tank! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/balloon-jeans-and-j#post-2186497 Tue, 13 Apr 2021 14:45:26 +0000 Carla 2186497@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That shrug is everything! &nbsp; Love your hair at this length, which works so well with your style. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/balloon-jeans-and-j#post-2186494 Tue, 13 Apr 2021 14:20:21 +0000 catherine 2186494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look cool and professional in your new jeans.

The sleeves on the shrug would make me crazy as I need sleeves to end above my wrist, but you wear it well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/balloon-jeans-and-j#post-2186485 Tue, 13 Apr 2021 13:53:12 +0000 Irina 2186485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, my opinion on the shrug is different I think it looks great, it meant to be this oversized to contrast a fitted top underneath. Also can be worn with fitted merino turtleneck. In the smaller size it might look like a half of a sweater </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/balloon-jeans-and-j#post-2186480 Tue, 13 Apr 2021 13:41:39 +0000 Christina F. 2186480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>The jeans look awesome, from what I can see.

Play around with the width &amp; number of folds too. </p> <p>The shrug is lovely but I know what you mean about the fit - I have a similar cream item (it forms a 'funnel neck' where it crosses in the middle, but is otherwise just an arms-&amp;-shoulder-blades warmer, lol) &amp; have found that the shoulder fit is REALLY important in those supposedly 'one size fits all' items. You mentioned your shoulders are sometimes a little bigger in proportion to the rest of you - does it sit well on your shoulders or slip off? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/balloon-jeans-and-j#post-2186450 Tue, 13 Apr 2021 10:54:25 +0000 lyn67 2186450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Would like to see the jeans full view but seem the are good! Shirt and shrug (even if too big) look very edgy can you provide a link, for details!

I like the shrug. It looks intentionally oversized to me and not sloppy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/balloon-jeans-and-j#post-2186399 Tue, 13 Apr 2021 03:32:18 +0000 Bijou 2186399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous - I love the silk shirt, such a great design and beautiful fabric. Those jeans are perfect on you. The shrug looks great, but if it falls off due to being oversized, the fuss factor would bother me and I would return. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/balloon-jeans-and-j#post-2186398 Tue, 13 Apr 2021 03:30:31 +0000 Greyscale 2186398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Irina</b>,<b></b>&nbsp;the silk shirt is an XS. It's a generous fit, but I think it's the right size. I'm an XS in most things, sometimes S, and the fit is good on my shoulders and chest (these are the pieces of me that sometimes need a S). If I had more slender shoulders I might size down.</p> <p><b>Suz</b>, the Everlane jeans come right down to the top of my shoes. Not ideal, but I'm not sure I can hem them and keep the balloon shape. It looks ok with my shoes, but not at all cropped. However, my legs are extra short for my height -- 26" inseam for skinnies, 28" to the floor when barefoot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/balloon-jeans-and-j#post-2186396 Tue, 13 Apr 2021 03:17:21 +0000 slim cat 2186396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love those black balloon pants/jeans on you - perfect fit and style!<br />The tops all look fantastic - great pieces.<br />Kitty is a bonus - love . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/balloon-jeans-and-j#post-2186394 Tue, 13 Apr 2021 03:15:24 +0000 Suz 2186394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That shrug is so cool!&nbsp;</p> <p>Love all the tops, too -- and I want to see those jeans full length!&nbsp;</p> <p>Where do they come on you? They're not too long?

The shirt indeed looks like your style and has the unique cut. Subtle but special! Keep it! Looks fab. </p> <p>What size of the shirt you are wearing? I want one but unsure how it would fit in the chest.</p>
