Classic, minimal and modern. The cuts provide the modern. For some reason, the Zara tops did not come off as modern on you, even though they had modern touches like asymmetry, paint splashes and high low hemlines."</b></i></p> <p>Truer words never spoken. I wish I could understand why that is...and avoid the ordering mistakes! But it seems you are right. Simpler is better for me. Similar to Ornella in that way, I guess.&nbsp;</span> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off/page/2#post-1272689 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 12:03:53 +0000 Dekaf4me 1272689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such beautiful colors!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off/page/2#post-1272688 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 12:02:52 +0000 Neel 1272688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Late to the party ....

I have the linen pullover in the same colour and absolutely adore it. And my word, it looks so stunning on you. Relieved to hear you decided to keep it;-)<br />The blue cashmere pullover is beyond gorgeous on you too, so 100% your colour! And the style is amazing on you as well.<br />I'm happy to hear you are feeling happier in the tops departement. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off/page/2#post-1272661 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 10:01:08 +0000 Deborah 1272661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just beautiful Suz:)&nbsp; Particularly love these colours paired with the white.&nbsp; Great finds. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off/page/2#post-1272623 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 05:11:03 +0000 CocoLion 1272623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These items seem true to your style. &nbsp;Classic, minimal and modern. &nbsp;The cuts provide the modern. &nbsp;For some reason, the Zara tops did not come off as modern on you, even though they had modern touches like asymmetry, paint splashes and&nbsp;high low hemlines. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off/page/2#post-1272573 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 03:19:14 +0000 Suz 1272573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good question, Vicki. I wasn't looking for the cashmere. I was looking for linen sweaters or tops for this season -- we are just moving into summer here. But I just happened to see the cashmere while I was on the website,&nbsp;and it was at a good price (especially for a Collection sweater), in one of my best colours, <b>PLUS</b> I had a gift card. </p> <p>In February I got another oversized J. Crew collection cashmere sweater in a heavier gauge knit and I literally wore it almost every single day until mid-April. It was that cozy and wonderful. (I wore it as regular work at home wear <b>AND </b>as lounge wear.) So I knew that a lighter weight one in a good colour for me would be a real keeper.&nbsp;</p> <p>I guess I'm always keeping in mind what items have been complete and utter workhorses for me from the get-go. When I find something like that, I am more likely to buy a similar item during the off-season, secure in the knowledge that it will definitely get worn.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off/page/2#post-1272564 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 03:09:05 +0000 Vicki 1272564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A question on your comment that you don't often "shop between seasons" and I'm curious about how you look for these online finds. Was the cashmere sweater something you specifically searched for? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off/page/2#post-1272539 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 02:23:07 +0000 Jaime 1272539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay we are sort of sweater twins (mine is blue)!

I am in love with these pants, I'll tell you. I think I am going to get a pair in navy, too. Or maybe the brighter blue.&nbsp;</p> <p>Vicki, I ordered a small in the sweaters. I often wear an XS in J. Crew but decided to go a bit oversized here.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off/page/2#post-1272382 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 21:05:48 +0000 Beth Ann 1272382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Success!&nbsp; Both tops and the pants are definitely keepers!&nbsp; Beautiful colors, modern fits, terrific fabrics........ and so practical in your "real" life.&nbsp; </p> <p>Well done!&nbsp; Can't wait to see more! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off/page/2#post-1272354 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 20:10:44 +0000 Ornella 1272354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You glow in both. I love the neckline of the blue top.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off/page/2#post-1272350 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 20:04:22 +0000 EveningMood 1272350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, perfect, relaxed elegance, and you are a lady who knows her colors.

There is a lot of "yang" in us. (Dramatic classic, in Kibbe terms).</b></p> <p><b></b>With our low contrast coloring and features, these work in just the right way.</p> <p>I am eyeing that blue cashmere; it's beautiful. &nbsp;What size did you buy in the two tops? &nbsp;(I don't see many sizes left online). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off#post-1272318 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 19:14:57 +0000 Day Vies 1272318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You know I am a HUGE fan of blue with white but I love the color of #1 especially with the V-neckline. It looks like radiant orchid&nbsp; -- is it? I'm just in love with the whole outfit. Killer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off#post-1272315 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 19:04:01 +0000 jackiec 1272315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm super jammed up busy this weekend but had to log on to say how outstanding this all is! You absolutely glow in that purple vneck! Pants are awesome, cashmere is awesome. I think we wear similar things for our body types so I am saving this....might have to check out JCrew! So amazing I'm passing out.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off#post-1272289 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 18:43:47 +0000 Peri 1272289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Envious as always! Well, in a nice admiring way, not a nasty jealous way!</p> <p>Love both, but of course especially the <u>orchid.&nbsp;</u> &nbsp;Yay!</p> <p>No chance of copying...this would be March wear for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off#post-1272284 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 18:37:48 +0000 Gracie 1272284@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful finds. Yey for white linen pants! I'd love to see yours pin-rolled to taper them a bit more around the ankle. And I'm curious about how they look full length too. My favorite of these two sweaters is the blue one... can't beat a boat neck for "our" shoulders, and the shade of blue is so, so beautiful on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off#post-1272266 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 18:07:12 +0000 Karie 1272266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW. I thought #1 and #2 were gorgeous, and then I clicked on #3 and #4. There is some serious total outfit love going on here! I just got back from J. Crew (I purchased the striped dress you recommended!) and I saw those items in the store - they are fabulous. That cashmere sweater looks and feels stunning.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/casual-linen-from-j-crew-tags-are-off#post-1272260 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 18:02:04 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1272260@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful choices, Suz. How did I miss those fab sandals of yours, too? They are perfect on you, both style and color. <br />I like how you have the pants rolled. What length will you hem them? (I don't have a suggestion, because I struggle with this question myself, but I'm curious to see what you do.) </p>
