Both pieces are silk and will be good for those it's-hot-I-don't-want-clothes-touching-me-today days. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blushing-tomatoes-to-beat-the-heat#post-1682740 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 16:39:12 +0000 Suz 1682740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely, Columbine! I really like the colour combo. I think the styling suggestions are great but for the heat you are facing the way you are wearing it is probably best!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blushing-tomatoes-to-beat-the-heat#post-1682736 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 16:36:16 +0000 columbine(erin) 1682736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Angie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blushing-tomatoes-to-beat-the-heat#post-1682715 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 15:46:39 +0000 Angie 1682715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you can look this good in scorching temperatures with no a/c - My hat off to you, Columbine. And I know you have an infant at home too. You look fab.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blushing-tomatoes-to-beat-the-heat#post-1682678 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 14:36:31 +0000 columbine(erin) 1682678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the expertise, Diane, I'll try that, and Rachy, thanks for the observations; the top is a little long for me but goes with a lot so the hair band trick will be really useful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blushing-tomatoes-to-beat-the-heat#post-1682504 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 08:51:20 +0000 rachylou 1682504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The skirt is really fab. I like it with the white saltwaters. I think I agree with Diane &amp; co. re. making the top end higher up. I note that the top is a good one for the hairband trick. It looks good tucked up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blushing-tomatoes-to-beat-the-heat#post-1682479 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 08:00:01 +0000 Anonymous 1682479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the top and skirt colours are great together. And the design of the skirt is lovely. If you didn't tuck the top, you could try being more aggressive with how you do the knot tying trick and pull the top tighter grabbing more fabric in the hair band so that it makes is settle higher and tighter towards you waistline.</p> <p>I also love the idea of a white top with the skirt too</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blushing-tomatoes-to-beat-the-heat#post-1682432 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 05:11:58 +0000 columbine(erin) 1682432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the ideas, Tanya. I think I'd like to make a little capsule for this skirt. Because it was a gift and I don't happen to have coordinating items it's been an orphan. A shorter white top would be fun or maybe a peplum. Thanks Barbara Diane. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blushing-tomatoes-to-beat-the-heat#post-1682430 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 04:52:55 +0000 Barbara Diane 1682430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the skirt! Really special. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blushing-tomatoes-to-beat-the-heat#post-1682425 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 04:40:03 +0000 Tanya 1682425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The skirt is lovely on you, and the tp color goes well with it.&nbsp; I would also try it with slightly shorter and more fitted top, or try tucking this one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blushing-tomatoes-to-beat-the-heat#post-1682401 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 04:08:08 +0000 Anna 1682401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a window air conditioner bedroom and I am holed up in their with the pets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blushing-tomatoes-to-beat-the-heat#post-1682375 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 03:11:47 +0000 columbine(erin) 1682375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm in CO. After months of snow I was a bit unprepared for it to be 82 Deg. F at breakfast time, what! We don't have a.c. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blushing-tomatoes-to-beat-the-heat#post-1682373 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 03:06:20 +0000 Anna 1682373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No I get it! Where do you live? It was 90 degrees here in Michigan today and I could barely handle it.<br /> Love the outfit and you look nice and cool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blushing-tomatoes-to-beat-the-heat#post-1682359 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 02:31:58 +0000 columbine(erin) 1682359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This was maybe better in my head than real life. Moving on! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blushing-tomatoes-to-beat-the-heat#post-1681987 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 16:15:03 +0000 columbine(erin) 1681987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pardon the wrinkles, it's 100 deg. F so it's against my religion to turn on the iron or anything else that generates heat, today. I'm trying out Diane's trick with the hair band to create a little asymmetry. I'd like to wear this with pointy toe white pumps when they fit in the budget and maybe a jean jacket when it cools down. </p>
