Maybe smaller ladies can do it better in the tonal looks. Do you have a grey pant? or something lighter? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn/page/2#post-1189319 Sun, 09 Mar 2014 04:21:57 +0000 Beth Ann 1189319@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it, Una!&nbsp; I think I actually prefer yours without the jacket, although I preferred MK's with her topper.&nbsp; Could just be the photo, I'm not sure.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn/page/2#post-1189293 Sun, 09 Mar 2014 03:35:57 +0000 amiable 1189293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoa. &nbsp;I so need a cropped sweater. &nbsp;I've avoided them so far, but seeing yours and Mary's makes me need one NOW! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn/page/2#post-1189286 Sun, 09 Mar 2014 03:29:46 +0000 rae 1189286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE THIS ON YOU!

Absolutely fabulous, even if it is the last remaining one you have. What a visionary you are to have seen this ahead of the pack and this look is so you! As soon as I saw Angie's ensemble, I thought of you, and I adore your "nonchalant androgyny" concept. </p> <p>Your cropped sweater length is a perfect length and I prefer the shorter look as shown on you. I hope you can retrieve some of your discarded favorites and if not find a few more you like. (I have to go out and buy my first one to begin.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn#post-1188809 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 18:28:04 +0000 catgirl 1188809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marley I agree a longer shirt would be good too especially with skinnies but I don't have one yet! New shopping list.... Oh and will get u a pic and measurements for the navy jacket today! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn#post-1188804 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 18:20:27 +0000 Marley 1188804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una - this is amazing!&nbsp; It just seems to perfectly fit your "style."&nbsp; Love it!&nbsp; (My only thought - and it's the same thought that I had when looking at MK's rendition of this ensemble - is that I would rather the jacket and shirt not be so close to the same length - you know, so that the shirt tails would hang out below the jacket - but that's just me, because Angie called both your's and MKs "killer" - so I probably don't know that I'm talking about!)&nbsp; I can't wait to get home (next week) and try this outfit out myself! Thanks for posting! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn#post-1188796 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 18:13:53 +0000 ironkurtin 1188796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are so cute.&nbsp; My husband HATES cropped over long so I have developed a Pavlovian negative response to the look, but you carry it off with style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn#post-1188794 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 18:10:53 +0000 AviaMariah 1188794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great! &nbsp;I almost prefer #2 without the jacket. &nbsp;I can't tell you why though. &nbsp;:) &nbsp;May just be be picture. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn#post-1188790 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 18:06:11 +0000 catgirl 1188790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all! Angie, I forgot to do that until after I posted - doesn't look like there is a way to edit now but I hopefully will remember from now on! </p> <p>I am so happy this works and I am curious as to why so many feel it suits an IT. I would think it would be fab on anyone if the bottoms are right. In fact I felt skinnies would emphasize the IT shape too much. </p> <p>Dang I want my cropped sweaters back! This is why I hoard! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn#post-1188748 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 17:02:48 +0000 MsMary 1188748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this!

Well done.&nbsp;</p> <p>If you can remember Una, we would really appreciate it if you&nbsp;used the new feature at the bottom of the blog post when you start a thread that is about a blog post topic. It links the post to further discussion and reality in the forum.&nbsp;That way, your outfit inspires many more people, and our community is much more engaged.

I have to find a black cropped sweater. With the jacket, it would work perfectly for the office. Love this on you ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn#post-1188608 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 13:42:08 +0000 Suz 1188608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! Nodding along with those who say it seems exceptionally well suited to an IT. I am not sure I'll be able to wear it as well, but I aim to try!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn#post-1188605 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 13:35:05 +0000 April 1188605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pictures are, as you've noted, not clear enough to judge the pants but I'm really liking the cropped-over-floaty look! &nbsp;(Fellow premature purger here sharing your regret...) &nbsp;</p> <p>With my camera, I realized that I was standing directly in front of it while holding the shutter button halfway down for it to focus. &nbsp;Then when I took my place across the room, it was focusing where I had been standing rather than where I was when it shot. &nbsp;I learned to do the halfway button press while standing to one side. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn#post-1188590 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 13:04:07 +0000 Karie 1188590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks great on you (auto focus issues and all). I think I agree with Jenava - it would work best on IT body types. I don't think it would work so well on me, but after seeing it on others, I want to try it too (I'm such a lemming)! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn#post-1188582 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 12:54:19 +0000 nancylee 1188582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! &nbsp;This is definitely the look, Una. &nbsp;And I really think it suits your style. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn#post-1188576 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 12:49:05 +0000 Ingunn 1188576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great! I think you nailed it perfectly, and it's so very you indeed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn#post-1188573 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 12:47:56 +0000 Anonymous 1188573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you nailed it Una. Fabulous! I like the proportions and I'm looking forward to seeing your other renditions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn#post-1188565 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 12:42:14 +0000 Janet 1188565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep, I love this look on you. It makes me wonder if I can make it work, because it seems so brilliantly suited to an IT, and I have the same concerns as Jenava. However, I'm thinking of keeping the long shirt and the pants more tonal and going for contrast in the crop top to keep the emphasis on my waistline. Now I just need to find a crop top! Like you, I got rid of all of my shorter tops expect for one cardigan that I do like, but I think it's too fitted for this look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cropped-over-long-my-turn#post-1188559 Sat, 08 Mar 2014 12:36:48 +0000 El Cee 1188559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great on you… especially with the jacket.
