I really love you in the color of the second and third tops--it looks beautiful on you. </p> <p>I know you feel like your shoulders are very broad, but they really, really don't look broad to me, Carole! Just had to toss that out there :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-410218 Thu, 25 Aug 2011 00:00:42 +0000 Carole 410218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Kate and Taylor!</p> <p>Una, I appreciate the compliments and constructive feedback. I have had mixed reviews on that first top, but I'm going to keep it. I can wear it under several jackets and that I have so I won't be flashing the cap sleeves around too much! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409980 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 18:38:43 +0000 catgirl 409980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the second and third one - those colors are gorgeous on you and with the scarf, it's a killer look. YAY!</p> <p>I am going to go out on a limb and say I'm not a huge fan of the cap-like sleeves on the first blouse. I may just have a poison eye, though - since cap sleeves are my personal nemesis. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409973 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 18:30:42 +0000 Kate 409973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Carole, the Pleione blouse and Halogen sweater are fabulous on you. Definitely worth the price of admission. Those colors are stunning on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409882 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 15:08:54 +0000 taylor 409882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so happy to see you post lately...All are keepers , gorgeous on you, each one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409868 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 14:54:19 +0000 Carole 409868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Isabel. I'm getting over the guilt rather quickly of missing the sale price, by one day! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409866 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 14:52:59 +0000 Carole 409866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks modgrl. I think the cowl neck sweater is a little tricky. I wasn't so sure if I liked it on me either, but I have such broad shoulders, and in theory this is something that is suppose to work, plus I'm tall, 5'9. You look more petite and that sweater could be overwhelming on someone smaller. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409865 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 14:51:23 +0000 Isabel 409865@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my, I also LOVE all the tops. That deep burgundy color in 2 and 3 are divine on you !<br /> I can't pick a favorite......so they are all my favorite. </p> <p>( I agree that you shouldn't worry about the extra expense because you just look so good. ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409862 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 14:45:02 +0000 modgrl 409862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First of all, you look just amazing in those skinny's!! They are perfect for you!!<br /> Love the last blouse, and that scarf is a great find with it. All of these pieces are lovely for you. That cowl neck sweater is so pretty on everyone else - I'm sad it didn't work for me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409835 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 14:04:40 +0000 Carole 409835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Saretta. </p> <p>The first top ended up costing like $13, with my $10 coupon. Not bad! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409828 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 14:00:28 +0000 Saretta 409828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Dianthus said?

I think I will just keep them all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409726 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 03:33:00 +0000 nancylee 409726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My absolute favorites are the sweater in #3-4 and the Pleione top in #5-7...you look fabulous in both! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409721 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 03:18:59 +0000 christy 409721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #2 and #3 - what a beautiful color on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409719 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 03:14:38 +0000 Carole 409719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Kyle, I appreciate the justification! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409706 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 02:44:09 +0000 Kyle 409706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The structure, silhouette and colors are really nice on you, Carole. Sometimes when you find just the right thing, it is worth it to pay full price! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409680 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 01:54:54 +0000 Carole 409680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah and Aida-Thanks for the thumbs up on the Pleione top, I guess my insticts were right when I tried it on!</p> <p>Angie-You made my day, so nice to hear I look youthful, I have been feeling my age lately! Glad you approve of my new tops. I just love the color "purple", at least in these two tops. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409668 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 01:33:57 +0000 Aida 409668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love the last top on you, it's gorgeous and looks like it fits perfectly! I am unsure for the other two; they both do look good, but they didn't make me say "oooooh" like the third one did when I opened the photo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409667 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 01:31:24 +0000 Angie 409667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All superb, Carole! You drink from the fountain of youth - my word. You look better each time you post :)</p> <p>#2 is my best and perfect for Autumn, which will be upon us Pacific North Westerners in a month. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409657 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 01:16:50 +0000 sarah 409657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all lovely tops, but I *really* love the Pleione top on you - everything about it - the color, the drape, everything. I'd say it's worth the extra $$, as it's so perfect on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409646 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 01:04:08 +0000 Carole 409646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, dianthus! Wish I had tried this on during the sale, I could have saved myself a few bucks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409644 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 01:02:41 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 409644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All are very nice but I particularly like the first and third tops. The color of the third is great for transitioning to fall and it looks beautiful on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bellatrix-shirt-substitute-and-a-couple-other-tops-what-do-you-think#post-409638 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 00:59:09 +0000 Carole 409638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1-2 I have loved the Bellatrix tops on everyone else, but I hadn't been able to find one that worked for me. I had a $10 coupon for JCPennys and decided to see if I could find anything. I came home with this top, what do you think? I threw on my skinnies and a cami underneath. </p> <p>3-4 This is the Halogen cowlneck button back sweater so many YFLr's have too. I had to wait for this color... </p> <p>5-7 but in the meantime I found this Pleione shirt (paid full price after the sale, darn) but I really like the style and thought it would be a good transition piece for fall, found the scarf in 7 at Forever21.</p> <p>Thanks for your time and honest feedback. </p>
