It has Shannon written all over it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365984 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 04:24:18 +0000 karymk 1365984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh dear, very silly question, Shannon. &nbsp;I can see you in this perfectly. Absolutely.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365915 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 02:38:28 +0000 Deb 1365915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous look for day or night, work or play. Mixing up the footwear will give it a different vibe. You could layer with a knee length coat if the weather is cool. Useful separates too. I like it a lot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365864 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 01:30:34 +0000 Suz 1365864@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah....well, it might not be completely work appropriate like this, but would be superb for an out-for-the-evening (or even lunch) look with hubby or girlfriends.&nbsp;</p> <p>You could have a silky blouse cut a similar way that would give the same sheen and silhouette and (might) be marginally warmer.&nbsp;</p> <p>But seriously -- this is for our late spring or early fall, as is. It would have been a PERFECT outfit for me to wear the our WritersFest this past weekend. Temps were unseasonably warm outdoors but AC inside.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365857 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 01:25:12 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1365857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Food for thought Una - thanks </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365855 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 01:24:23 +0000 catgirl 1365855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sure - I think it's the sheen that gives the appeal. You could do an airy scarf. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365851 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 01:23:02 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1365851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>But then would the outfit have the same appeal with a different top? Hmmmm... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365831 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 01:10:54 +0000 catgirl 1365831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Exposed - what I said!&nbsp; But not because too young, because it's our climate.&nbsp; I think in a beachy setting this would be perfection.&nbsp; Maybe you can find&nbsp;a similar top that isn't as sheer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365826 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 01:08:39 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1365826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know - for some reason this outfit looks almost too young for me? I do wear tube and pencil skirts often. Maybe it's the combination of the open knit with the tube skirt that feels a bit more exposed...</p> <p>I do appreciate the votes of confidence </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365796 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 00:37:48 +0000 Anonymous 1365796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>can you still work tights under a knit pencil? &nbsp;(assuming that's a knit) - otherwise, I think this is a fantastic look - would love to wear something like that myself!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365757 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 00:07:32 +0000 Suz 1365757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally. And, what Claire said.&nbsp;</p> <p>I might be right in line after you to see if I can nab those pieces! Sheesh, those are cool.&nbsp;</p> <p>I do think Dianthus has a point that for winter it is not going to work as is. But that still leaves early autumn and spring. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365755 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 00:03:45 +0000 Anonymous 1365755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For sure! What was it about this look that concerns you? You've been rocking this silhouette for quite some time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365690 Mon, 29 Sep 2014 22:56:26 +0000 ironkurtin 1365690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you could, sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365682 Mon, 29 Sep 2014 22:47:33 +0000 Marley 1365682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haven't you already pulled off this silhouette???? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365681 Mon, 29 Sep 2014 22:45:47 +0000 K. Period. 1365681@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely! You don't have super wide shoulders and you wear pencil skirts with the best, so I would think this would be brilliant on you!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365643 Mon, 29 Sep 2014 22:04:44 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1365643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sure it would look great. Is that mesh sweater made of metallic yarn? I've been looking for something like that ever since I saw a very chic parent at my daughter's school in one at the beginning of the month. I was informed that I have a "mom crush." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365633 Mon, 29 Sep 2014 21:51:05 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1365633@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that it isn't a stretch in the least but that your arms may freeze without another layer and that layer would mean you don't get that look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365630 Mon, 29 Sep 2014 21:44:51 +0000 catgirl 1365630@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't see why not!&nbsp; The only issue to me is how lightweight the sweater is for our weather, and if you are comforable wearing a cami under a semi-sheer layer. I always feel awkardly visible.&nbsp; But you have worn similar silhouettes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365628 Mon, 29 Sep 2014 21:43:11 +0000 unfrumped 1365628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think so for sure! The key is to get the right amount of boxiness in the top over tubeskirt to look relaxed, and be short enough to hit at the right place on the skirt, for petite. So it depends on whether you will rely on these exact pieces, that might or might do that, or if you'll need to copycat using other pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-i-pull-this-off#post-1365611 Mon, 29 Sep 2014 21:19:05 +0000 Janet 1365611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't see why not.

Now the fact that all pieces are EF don't hurt any. Substituting the bare legs with tights for warmth, could I pull off this outfit with my body shape? </p>
