Very cute. Cute shoes, too! I agree with Tanya that I like the A-line better, but this combo looks better with the chambray skirt. The wrap shirt is a good idea too.</p> <p>Like your haircut! I always feel lighter after trimming that much off my ends! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dark-chambray-swing-skirt#post-11826 Thu, 19 Jun 2008 00:19:09 +0000 Lannie 11826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Much better with a more fitted top. I think you can definitely make it work for you.<br /> And I definitely recommend a wrap top! Wrap dresses too, of course. I usually buy fixed or faux-wraps to avoid the issue of items falling open too much (although the issue isn't solved altogether, necessarily). I just couldn't ever feel completely secure in a wrap dress that wasn't sewn up somewhere, I think. But that's just me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dark-chambray-swing-skirt#post-11821 Wed, 18 Jun 2008 23:59:55 +0000 aisha1984 11821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya your the second person to comment on the need for some sort of waist definition. Perhaps a belt on top of a sweater would work? will continue to play around with this one!</p> <p>I don't have a wrap top but have been looking for one...that's another good idea... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dark-chambray-swing-skirt#post-11819 Wed, 18 Jun 2008 23:58:30 +0000 Tanya 11819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the A-line skirt better, but I think that the chambray one works in this combination. Lovely sweater and scarf, by the way! </p> <p>Somehow I'm thinking that the skirt might work better if there was a waist defining element involved, like a wide belt at the waist or a wrap top . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dark-chambray-swing-skirt#post-11815 Wed, 18 Jun 2008 23:37:55 +0000 aisha1984 11815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's odd...</p> <p>Here are the links again</p> <p><a href="http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm137/1ciaobella/wednesdaywithpashmina.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i295.photobucket.com/al.....shmina.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm137/1ciaobella/wednesday18.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i295.photobucket.com/al.....sday18.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm137/1ciaobella/chambraywednesday.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i295.photobucket.com/al.....nesday.jpg</a></p> <p>Hopefully this will work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dark-chambray-swing-skirt#post-11812 Wed, 18 Jun 2008 23:24:41 +0000 Antje 11812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aisha, none of the links work for me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dark-chambray-swing-skirt#post-11805 Wed, 18 Jun 2008 22:48:48 +0000 aisha1984 11805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been wearing the chambray swing skirt with the orange cardigan around the house for the past hour and now I'm not sure what to do! I'm starting to like it a bit more but would love hearing what everybody thinks. I think I can be swayed either way </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dark-chambray-swing-skirt#post-11803 Wed, 18 Jun 2008 22:48:07 +0000 aisha1984 11803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wasn't sure whether to start a separate topic for this:</p> <p>So I took everybody's advice and tried the dark chambray skirt on again with a more fitted top (incidentally, what I wore today)</p> <p><a href="http://i295.photobucket.com/al" rel="nofollow">http://i295.photobucket.com/al</a>.....nesday.jpg</p> <p>While I think it does look a lot better with a fitted top, somehow it still doesn't look as flattering as say, an a-line skirt or a straight pencil skirt on me. Here is a picture of me with the same top on an a-line skirt (incidentally, what I wore today)</p> <p>But, I'd like to hear what everybody thinks. The skirt only cost me $15.99 so it might even be worth it to keep as a light summer skirt...</p> <p><a href="http://i295.photobucket.com/al" rel="nofollow">http://i295.photobucket.com/al</a>.....sday18.jpg</p> <p>And, since I normally always bring a pashmina with me everywhere (with AC blasting on indoors I normally need it!) - here is my outfit for today with my new hot pink pashmina. I really like the orange and hot pink together. Thanks to Mirah who suggested the combination!</p> <p>I really really love my new cashmere shawl cardigan from Jcrew. I bought it in this colour (Mandarin Orange) and Geranium and they are just so lightweight and flattering and the colours are so nice!</p> <p><a href="http://i295.photobucket.com/al" rel="nofollow">http://i295.photobucket.com/al</a>.....shmina.jpg</p> <p>You can also see my new haircut in the pics - not too much of a change this time, since I have a couple of events coming up and wanted to keep my hair classic (long layers) for those but a good 4" came off my hair and I have to say I love it!</p> <p>I'll probably go for another haircut in July, something maybe a bit shorter and more fun. Choppier as Angie suggested </p>
