You might be surprised! </p> <p>I actually really like the coral Bravissimo top, I think the colour and shape are great on you. I've got my eye on their nightdress, myself... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/focus-on-tops-bravissimo-sweat-pea-etc#post-62246 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 17:01:05 +0000 Rosie 62246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rose, I just looked at that PJ top and it looks fantastic! I hate not having any support while lounging but don't want to wear a bra all the time. Thanks for the tip! </p> <p>Perhaps try a skinny belt with the top instead of a wide one? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/focus-on-tops-bravissimo-sweat-pea-etc#post-62241 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 16:47:59 +0000 Rose 62241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone, this is so helpful-- even looking at the pics myself is a helpful to way to train my eye-- it is quite different than looking in the mirror!<br /> I never would have thought about the sleeve length on the blazer. But I was afraid someone would suggest a belt I am terrified of belts b/c I am short-waisted and large busted, but I really have not actually tried this look. I'll give it a try.<br /> As to the coral bravissimo top, I got it for my way casual, hang out at home or outside days, not at all for work. Also, FYI on Bravissimo, I also got their PJ top and love it! super comfortable to sleep in, just enough support but not too much.<br /> CRWilson- I got the Sweet Pea top at MyShape.com, along with another Sweat Pea, stretch mesh faux wrap top that I also really like. FYI, my opinion of Myshape.com is "ok", but they do NOT take cup size into account with tops, I returned most stuff I bought from there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/focus-on-tops-bravissimo-sweat-pea-etc#post-62238 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 16:34:13 +0000 HannahC 62238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great purchases! (well, the white top is definitely way too big, but you know that already). Everything looks lovely! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/focus-on-tops-bravissimo-sweat-pea-etc#post-62237 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 16:32:59 +0000 Rosie 62237@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't have much practice in assessing body types (hourglass maybe?) but you have a great figure! While I like the print on the Sweet Pea top, I don't think it shows off your figure as much as the Bravissimo t-shirt and the Purple BR top. Perhaps try Alecia's suggestion for a belt? I just think that this doesn't show off your great figure as well as it could - perhaps too big like the white top (definitely too big.) I like the coral top because, particularly for a t-shirt-type top, it does show off your figure. </p> <p>I like the blazer. The amount you'd need to let the sleeves out is very small, a half-inch maybe. The jeans look great to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/focus-on-tops-bravissimo-sweat-pea-etc#post-62231 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:37:33 +0000 CK 62231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think your jeans look like they fit fine. :-)</p> <p>As for the blazer, it looks good except for perhaps the sleeve length. Perhaps you could have that let out a little?</p> <p>I like all the tops except for the white won. The bright coral one may be more casual, but we all need casual tops, too. I think it's very cute and the color is great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/focus-on-tops-bravissimo-sweat-pea-etc#post-62230 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:25:03 +0000 Laura 62230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You did really well with your purchases! I think your jeans look like they fit perfectly. Do they feel too big?</p> <p>The only top that doesn't do you justice is the white one. Otherwise you look fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/focus-on-tops-bravissimo-sweat-pea-etc#post-62228 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:14:42 +0000 crwilson 62228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the sweet pea top and the blazer! I liked the purple top, but I think that the coral top was a bit big (maybe?), and the white top was definitely big. I will leave body type to someone else since I am horrible, horrible, horrible at it. If you don't mind my asking, where did you get the sweet pea top? I really like it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/focus-on-tops-bravissimo-sweat-pea-etc#post-62220 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:58:27 +0000 Alecia 62220@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats on you first picture post! Woo hoo! It's thrilling, isn't it? Even more so when people actually comment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/focus-on-tops-bravissimo-sweat-pea-etc#post-62218 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:55:54 +0000 Rose 62218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent feedback Alecia, thanks!<br /> Also-- this is my 1st time posting photos here, if anyone wants to comment on what they think my body shape, please feel free. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/focus-on-tops-bravissimo-sweat-pea-etc#post-62212 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:50:20 +0000 sinead 62212@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the blazer and the purple BR shirt. Sweetpea top is cute. I agree on returning the white top and I'd return the pink bravissimo top- not that flattering.</p> <p>Great finds, overall. Oh, and jeans- I can't tell, but from the pictures they look ok to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/focus-on-tops-bravissimo-sweat-pea-etc#post-62208 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:44:01 +0000 Alecia 62208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Rose -</p> <p>I think the blazer looks great in the picture. The only issue may be the length of the sleeves, but I'm not an expert on that so maybe someone else will comment. It would look great with that banana top, which I also think is nice. It has cap sleeves which are not the most flattering for most but I think it'd be a great layering top.</p> <p>I love the pattern on the sweatpea top. Have you considered belting it? I think it would look super that way.</p> <p>I'm not really too keen on either bravissimo tops. I see you're returning the white one, which is good because you're just swimming in it. The other is just a style preference. I think it's a bit too t-shirt like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/focus-on-tops-bravissimo-sweat-pea-etc#post-62205 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:32:45 +0000 Rose 62205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are the photos of some recent purchases. Comments/Feedback welcome.<br /> I don't think the pictures do some of the tops full justice-- I love the blazer and think it looks better than the pics show. My take on looking at the pics is that my jeans may be too big for me..!<br /> <a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/rosemerin/RMCOutfits?authkey=Gv1sRgCPCRwduggZSZPg&#038;feat=directlink#5328262793172180146" rel="nofollow">http://picasaweb.google.com/ro.....3172180146</a> </p>
