However, the nearest BR is about 5 hours away, so trying on isn't really an option. I may just order a couple of sizes to try and go from there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/becky-97#post-25017 Wed, 10 Sep 2008 03:55:31 +0000 Taffy 25017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Becky... I wear the BR jackson cut (urban if it's in denim)...and I like them very much. They tend to be a bit roomier in the hip and thigh, with a smaller gap in the back waist. Could you go to a store and try some on? I find them pretty true to size for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/becky-97#post-24953 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 20:04:19 +0000 Becky 24953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much, ladies. You've given me confidence with the top part of the outfit...I'm still working on my layering skills. In the past, I wore pretty much one top + pants + no accessories, so I'm pleased to hear I got that part right. I really need to figure out some more jeans/trousers that fit me well. I think I may only have *one* pair of trousers that fit (and I'll have to try them again, since prior to this wearing, I would have said the fit of the ones in the photo was acceptable). Zafu.com recommended BR Jackson fit for me...does anyone else have experience with that fit? And I have no idea what size to start with, since the online sizing chart is *so* far off. Any recommendations?</p> <p>LOL, Ana, I *was* trying to channel Shiny! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/becky-97#post-24840 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 05:23:49 +0000 Ana 24840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't you love it when the weather starts to change? </p> <p>I really like your cardi and shoes! Nice "Shiny" pose. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/becky-97#post-24835 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 05:03:42 +0000 shell 24835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i agree with pretty much you and everyone else - saggy crotch, too big. BUT, i still think you look wonderful! the colors are brilliant together. a great bridging outfit for the period between summer and fall. i'd love to see it with some sassy pearls </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/becky-97#post-24831 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 04:29:34 +0000 Tanya 24831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a lovely combo Becky! That teal color looks amazing on you. The pants are a bit big, but otherwise I'll give it a ten! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/becky-97#post-24829 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 04:07:33 +0000 Angie 24829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Becky! Woohoo! Nice to see you post a pic. </p> <p>I LOVE the combo of the top and cardi. That and the shoes gets a 10! The pants are a little long in the crotch, but if they fitted, your entire outfit would be perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/becky-97#post-24816 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 02:42:23 +0000 Amanda 24816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with everyone else -- the concept is good and the blue sweater looks beautiful on you. I think the pants are baggy which throws the look off, but with pants that fit it would be a 10. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/becky-97#post-24813 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 02:39:09 +0000 Nicole 24813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aside from the trousers being a few sizes too big...you look great! I love your hair, love you in the blue cropped cardi, and the pink shoes finish it off really well. I love everything about it, except, as you said the fit of the pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/becky-97#post-24811 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 02:37:00 +0000 Dani 24811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the pants are a little too large unfortunately. I LOVE the color combination and the pop of the pink shoes. You rock that hairdo and the glasses! I still have a hard time figuring out the right shirt length for skirts vs. pants. The top doesn't seem to be too short for pants, but I'm no expert for sure You could definitely try the top half with a skirt and see how it looks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/becky-97#post-24810 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 02:36:26 +0000 Jillian 24810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Others will have much more insight, but I wanted to echo Joy. The blue is adorable on you-- it brings out your coloring so well. I love the color and texture combos in this outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/becky-97#post-24809 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 02:36:21 +0000 Julia 24809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Becky you look so cute! The shirt length looks fine to me. Maybe it appears short because of the sagging crotch of the pants? I agree that the pants don't fit you but I'm not sure it's only because of the high waist, it seems too loose around the hip/thigh area too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/becky-97#post-24807 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 02:30:36 +0000 Anonymous 24807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We'll see what others day but I think you have the right idea as to why it is just a little off. Love the blue on you and those are adorable shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/becky-97#post-24806 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 02:26:05 +0000 Becky 24806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oops, let's try this link so see if I can get it rotated right:</p> <p><a href="http://s285.photobucket.com/albums/ll53/PigletMeToo/?action=view&#038;current=017.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s285.photobucket.com/al.....nt=017.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/becky-97#post-24805 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 02:24:20 +0000 Becky 24805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's an outfit I threw together on the spur of the moment as the weather was a bit more fall-like than I had thought it would be:</p> <p><a href="http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll53/PigletMeToo/017.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i285.photobucket.com/al.....oo/017.jpg</a></p> <p>I like the concept, but I don't think it really worked for several reasons: The fit of the trousers is problematic (too high a rise, resulting in sagging at the crotch, plus I think they're a bit too large), and the blouse seems a bit too short to wear with pants. So maybe the top half could be recycled with a gray skirt for fall? Have I put my finger on what doesn't work?</p> <p>CRS and all other feedback welcome. Thanks for your help! </p>
