With the sweater, the colour is definitely a good pick. With the plaid blouse, I'd say try some tighter pant /tights+skirts and see what you think then, a different leg line would&nbsp;change it up a lot. The ones you have on in the pic are a little boxy perhaps, taking away from your natural shape.</p> <p>I'd also suggest trying out blouses with hi-lo/Assymetric hems or side-cut to go with the sweater! I find they add a little bit of fun when seeing the tails, give shape and movement - especially with the straight-cute of the sweater to contrast. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1595011 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 21:33:17 +0000 Elle 1595011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the plaid shirt on you but if you don't feel happy in it, then return. &nbsp;I'm not sure what is bothering your husband but I like the shirt peeking out - it's low contrast too so go figure.....&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594993 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 19:35:27 +0000 rachylou 1594993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I esp like the shirt with the sweater. I'm not sure what's odd, except maybe you could pull the collar more closed on the shirt... A lot of throat is exposed which maybe contradicts the warm and cozy of sweater over shirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594990 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 19:31:21 +0000 Beth Ann 1594990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I saw your shirt on the website and liked it a lot! &nbsp;It does have a "refined and feminine" touch, which is pleasing and suits you. &nbsp;Like you, I don't fare well with lumberjack looks, but I have been looking for one truly flattering plaid shirt. &nbsp;It's fun to play with looks that feel fresh but aren't our signature looks --- I like it with the sweater too! &nbsp;You look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594964 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 17:56:25 +0000 Bonnie 1594964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The shirt looks great on you - I like it on it's own. Covering it with the sweater is an option for cooler days, so win/win. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594962 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 17:36:35 +0000 Anonymous 1594962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's the way I would wear it. Looks fine to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594961 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 17:28:00 +0000 deb 1594961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not odd at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594949 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 16:09:09 +0000 Angie 1594949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look super cute.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594942 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 15:54:34 +0000 Angela K 1594942@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto Suz and Diana. Love the colors! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594934 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 14:09:03 +0000 Diana 1594934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Suz said. Love the shirt tails, not wild about the sleeves. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594933 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 14:07:06 +0000 Suz 1594933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Killer holiday outfit, Peri! I think it's gorgeous.&nbsp;</p> <p>Does DH object to the shirt-tails, actually...or to the sleeves peeking out? I find the sleeve shapes argue with one another a bit -- the bell like wide sleeve of the sweater with the long soft sleeve of the shirt. If I were wearing it, I'd probably roll the shirt cuffs up so they don't show (warmth permitting, of course). But that is maybe just a personal quirk. Just thought I would mention it in case it is his issue.&nbsp;</p> <p>Anyway, I think you should keep the top and wear it both ways! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594922 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 12:59:16 +0000 dakotacheryl 1594922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KEEP...love the tails showing under the sweater...and all by itself the plaid shirt looks great on you!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594921 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 12:47:52 +0000 Tania 1594921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep! I think it looks great on you. I think the shirttails peeking out add interest. Great colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594920 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 12:45:53 +0000 Anonymous 1594920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the look of a sweater over shirt tails. &nbsp;It is something I see a lot on various websites so my eye has totally adjusted. &nbsp;Perhaps your husband hasn't been exposed to it enough to start to like it. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594909 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 10:21:04 +0000 Brooklyn 1594909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks good to me! And another keep vote for the shirt. Great colour and I like the way the pattern differs on the button line. It's eye catching. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594882 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 04:11:06 +0000 unfrumped 1594882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the colors and the plaid. Definitely " you". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594880 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 03:53:20 +0000 catgirl 1594880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it both ways! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594878 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 03:40:52 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1594878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This outfit is fantastic on you! I love the shirt peeking out at the bottom and sleeve hems, and it looks gorgeous on its own, too. I bet it's the plaid that is giving DH pause--it probably seems quite a change from a solid shirttail showing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594872 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 03:20:58 +0000 Gigi 1594872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say keep for the plaid shirt. It looks very nice on you.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm not sure what DH is seeing with the shirttails...it looks fine to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594868 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 03:03:43 +0000 Windchime 1594868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks amazing! I see why you like the flannel shirt so much; sounds like DH's eye hasn't adjusted yet to this style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594861 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 02:51:00 +0000 Jaime 1594861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both are fantastic. Shirt tails look fine too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594858 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 02:38:47 +0000 Elizabeth P 1594858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the sweater on you Peri, esp WITH that shirt, tails hanging below and all (modern, in my eye). The shirt is gorgeous, I can see why you get a jolt of happiness. The detailing down the front is wonderful. </p> <p>So keep both. But not sure about the DH ;-). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594855 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 02:16:20 +0000 Maneera 1594855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the sweater. Such a gorgeous color on you! No - the shirt sticking out at the bottom doesn't look odd at all. And Keep the shirt....looks good on you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dh-says-this-is-odd-is-itkr#post-1594853 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 02:11:17 +0000 Peri 1594853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>He thinks it is odd that the shirt tail sticks out below the sweater. I don't think so! It's funny because I've worn something similar (same sweater-different blouse) without him saying anything or even doing a double-take. I don't know what about this might be bothering him, but I'm content to wear the items separately if it is a genuine odd and not just a "man" odd!</p> <p>The K/R is for the plaid shirt. I've been looking since last year and this is the first one I don't feel quite so lumberjack in. It is still boxy, but I can't size down...all my IT friends know that feeling with woven shirts of wondering if the shoulders are going to rip when you are putting it on or taking it off! (It doesn't button all the way), I love the colors of this one and every time I see it hanging in my closet I get a little jolt of happiness. But...I'm not sure it is translating to a jolt of happiness <u>on me!</u> I do feel eager to wear it, but I can't say I think it's my absolute best look.</p> <p>Both things are from JJill. I was able to "find" the sweater but for some reason it won't work on the plaid shirt. </p>
