It's got character, a bit of sass.</p> <p>Sometimes I find that if I strike out in the full-priced sections, the clearance/sale racks may be exactly what I need. You never know!</p> <p>I love your term "online roulette." Is it SO appropriate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/breaking-the-rules-and-a-realization#post-1097085 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 03:42:32 +0000 AJ 1097085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great epiphany, you rule breaker! ;)</p> <p>This tank looks perfect for your hot weather needs and it fits your style to boot.

Nothing especially junior about this top and it suits your needs perfectly so why not? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/breaking-the-rules-and-a-realization#post-1097075 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 03:35:00 +0000 FlorenceFearne 1097075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't get around to commenting earlier, but I love that tank! It's not&nbsp;"just a tank top"! It has such amazing drape, embellishment, a cool shape. In fact, you so inspired me that I plonked down far more than my usual budget for tanks on a similar embellished piece at Target just a bit ago. Thanks! ;)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/breaking-the-rules-and-a-realization#post-1097035 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 02:48:35 +0000 Mo 1097035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Came home surprised to see the support for my choice! &nbsp;Thanks &nbsp;I just don't want to shlump around half the time waiting to wear the 'good stuff'. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/breaking-the-rules-and-a-realization#post-1097027 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 02:36:31 +0000 Anonymous 1097027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto! I am doing a rehaul on my stay home clothes for that reason. My sweatpants, tops and all loungewear are just sad, very sad!</p> <p>Looking great!

Once you know the rules, you can break them more easily without any repercussions, and this is a perfect example of that. That and Angie's "leave no retail stone unturned" philosophy, lol.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/breaking-the-rules-and-a-realization#post-1096708 Sun, 24 Nov 2013 21:10:32 +0000 Lyn D. 1096708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great Mo- I wonder with items like this if it is worth duplicating if possible? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/breaking-the-rules-and-a-realization#post-1096702 Sun, 24 Nov 2013 21:01:42 +0000 cheryl 1096702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it and it looks great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/breaking-the-rules-and-a-realization#post-1096678 Sun, 24 Nov 2013 20:07:58 +0000 Krista 1096678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it on you. &nbsp;And hooray for breaking the rules and still feeling like "you." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/breaking-the-rules-and-a-realization#post-1096612 Sun, 24 Nov 2013 18:46:25 +0000 Jenava 1096612@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks a lot more expensive on you, and not at all like a junior's item. &nbsp;I love it esp. with that necklace. &nbsp;I totally get it - adjusting wardrobe's to meet our real needs can be tough. &nbsp;But if you can learn to play within the box that really matters I think it's more rewarding, because the wardrobe you actually get to WEAR is more exciting.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/breaking-the-rules-and-a-realization#post-1096605 Sun, 24 Nov 2013 18:39:25 +0000 LACeleste 1096605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's perfect for you and looks great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/breaking-the-rules-and-a-realization#post-1096601 Sun, 24 Nov 2013 18:37:40 +0000 Gaylene 1096601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rules need to be broken when they don't make sense for the way we live and where we live. That's why I'm revising my attitude towards gear-type clothing during a Canadian winter. I want to look good enjoying the sun and snow without freezing; you want to look good walking and biking in a hot, uber-casual environment. Seems reasonable enough, but why do we make it so complicated by trying to follow arbitrary rules that ignore basic considerations of where we live and what we do? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/breaking-the-rules-and-a-realization#post-1096579 Sun, 24 Nov 2013 18:09:01 +0000 Elly 1096579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it is very stylish and the looser fit keeps it from looking too young despite being pretty revealing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/breaking-the-rules-and-a-realization#post-1096540 Sun, 24 Nov 2013 17:32:58 +0000 Liz A. 1096540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/breaking-the-rules-and-a-realization#post-1096526 Sun, 24 Nov 2013 17:25:19 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1096526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I couldn't agree more.&nbsp; You need to dress for the lifestyle and climate in which you live - not the one others live in.&nbsp; Good for you for realizing what you needed and breaking a rule Mo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/breaking-the-rules-and-a-realization#post-1096524 Sun, 24 Nov 2013 17:24:58 +0000 Amy 1096524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes!
