But sewing time is precious; I'd be careful to spend it on what you REALLY want to sew and have in your wardrobe.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blue-shirt-keep#post-922977 Thu, 02 May 2013 00:04:25 +0000 Anonymous 922977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Well this blouse is definitely tailored. I wonder if you could dye it a chambray color? I'm trying to keep in mind that you have very specific goals for buying ethically and since this blouse has found it's way to you, maybe you should at least keep it to experiment on. It's not like you have gobs and gobs of clothes and you're trying to pare down. I think I might have given a different answer if you had styled this shirt with your pinstriped pencil or under your sheath dress.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blue-shirt-keep#post-922966 Wed, 01 May 2013 23:48:30 +0000 anne 922966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Suz I could possibly take the sleeves off and Claire - I could take the side seams in.&nbsp; <br />Claire Angie gave me the descriptor "country pretty", but I am not sure that is where I would like to be. I would like to tend more tailored and sophisticated.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blue-shirt-keep#post-922957 Wed, 01 May 2013 23:41:44 +0000 Anonymous 922957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Suz has a good point. You could also try to slim it the torso. I like the tailored style of this better for you&nbsp;after looking at your white shirt thread. Do you have a style descriptor Anne? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blue-shirt-keep#post-922950 Wed, 01 May 2013 23:36:42 +0000 Suz 922950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Anne, one quick thought before it goes. You can sew, right? Can you remove the sleeves and make it into a summer shirt? The blue is actually nice on you and if it were a sleeveless top for wearing with shorts or a skirt, you might get some wear from it.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blue-shirt-keep#post-922877 Wed, 01 May 2013 22:31:39 +0000 rachylou 922877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Well, I like the colour! But it would maybe look best in Sweden...<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blue-shirt-keep#post-922871 Wed, 01 May 2013 22:29:47 +0000 anne 922871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Well Angie has spoken... I was leaning towards donating this myself.&nbsp; Unfrumped, my wardrobe isn't so full looking, but I am probably facing budget cuts, so "something fabber" might take a while - which is why I wanted to check before donating.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blue-shirt-keep#post-922835 Wed, 01 May 2013 22:04:14 +0000 unfrumped 922835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Move on!&nbsp;Empty space will invite&nbsp;something fabber. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blue-shirt-keep#post-922830 Wed, 01 May 2013 21:58:03 +0000 Anonymous 922830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ So I'm not the only one who doesn't like 3/4 sleeves riding up under a jacket? I just got rid of a bunch of these Anne. They seem so common to me and I found I didn't like the stiffness of the stretch (I'm guessing) cotton. I vote donate too. Yes it would clothe your body, but it's not bringing out your true beauty.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blue-shirt-keep#post-922824 Wed, 01 May 2013 21:52:31 +0000 Angie 922824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'm here! I vote donate. Not fab enough on you. By golly, I love your orange wall! <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blue-shirt-keep#post-922822 Wed, 01 May 2013 21:50:57 +0000 anne 922822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Bump!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blue-shirt-keep#post-922507 Wed, 01 May 2013 15:25:23 +0000 anne 922507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This is a hand me down shirt. Points against it are 1) a little boxy in the body 2) I much prefer long sleeves for wearing under jackets 3) not sure if this colour is too greyed for me.<br />What do you think?<br />
