You don't need to think about looking sophisticated in it because it happens naturally for you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-284090 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 23:40:16 +0000 Anonymous 284090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad you got the skirt. The dark dress would be a new take on a LBD to dress up or down with accessories. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-284075 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 22:27:42 +0000 Aida 284075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad you ended up getting the skirt, it looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-284059 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 21:50:26 +0000 catgirl 284059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the skirt a lot, Rute! For some reason, the dresses look a little too "figure skater" for me, especially in the tan/taupe color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-284053 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 21:42:11 +0000 rute 284053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh.. I see Angie, the pleated skirts you were talking about here:</p> <p> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2011/01/10/25-trends-for-spring-2011/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2011/01/.....ring-2011/</a></p> <p>Well, I guess I have just found mine! I went back to Zara to buy it, because I felt really good and everybody liked!</p> <p>I'll give the black dress a couple more days .. I'll have to think.. but I'm so tempted.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-284007 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 19:51:00 +0000 Lynne 284007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>team skirt only, because the dress isn't really giving you anything extra - pairing the skirt with a t will effectively give you the look of the dress. Am I making any sense? </p> <p> And you are not talking about ANY 42yo woman here - you're talking about our fabulous Rute! Of course you can pull it off! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283916 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 17:49:12 +0000 Scarlet 283916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I would start with the skirt and see how you feel in this silhouette. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283908 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 17:32:14 +0000 Melissa 283908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote buy the black skirt, hands down, and pass on the others. The skirt is totally wonderful on you, and the others just aren't up to the same standard. That skirt looks amazing on you, and I can see you wearing it with all sorts of things. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283907 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 17:31:41 +0000 MsMary 283907@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote "buy" for the skirt AND the black dress! I think they are both fab on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283887 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 16:47:09 +0000 Tricia 283887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE the skirt and it looks great on you. The color of the tan dress doesn't do anything for you, but I do like the black (blue?) one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283879 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 16:39:37 +0000 rute 283879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie,</p> <p>It's this skirt</p> <p><a href="http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product/pt/pt/zara-W2010-s/51181/238524/MINI-SAIA%2BC%2B%2BPREGAS" rel="nofollow">http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs.....B%2BPREGAS</a></p> <p>I'm not sure what you mean by knitted..the composition is<br /> 46% POLIESTER<br /> 45% VISCOSE<br /> 6% ALGODÃO<br /> 3% ELASTANO<br /> It's an heavy fabric!</p> <p>Pulled off with sophistication .. my brain is already working..</p> <p>Shall I buy the skirt and the black dress? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283868 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 16:13:18 +0000 courtneyf1216 283868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that skirt. I agree with Sara it would work in so many outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283866 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 16:12:08 +0000 Sara 283866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Get that black skirt immediately! It is fabulous on you! I'm not too wild about the dresses, something about the cut seems a little off, but that skirt would work in SO MANY outfit combinations. I even like it with the shirt you have on in the dressing room. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283857 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 15:59:27 +0000 Angie 283857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rute, those are the pleated skirts I was talking about when I spoke about the trends for Spring 2011. Is that a knitted skirt by the way? It's adorable and flattering but needs to be pulled off with sophistication - which you do with no problem at all :)</p> <p>I vote pass on the beige dress. It does not live up to your high style quotient! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283853 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 15:48:08 +0000 kellygirl 283853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the skirt, Rute! You can definitely pull it off! I really love it with the tucked blouse. I'd pass on the two dresses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283850 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 15:45:13 +0000 Astrid 283850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the skirt! I think the dresses don't look so good because the neckline is too high and the sleeves have a strange length for the cut. I don't like the color of the second dress either. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283844 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 15:32:23 +0000 rute 283844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes AJ, I did the test. As it's a voluminous skirt, when I sit both (skirt and dress) cover the knees. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283842 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 15:29:07 +0000 Evie 283842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283838 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 15:24:55 +0000 rae 283838@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the skirt, but not sold on the dress... can't quite put my finger on it. The skirt looks really lovely on you, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283837 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 15:22:01 +0000 AJ 283837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rute, you are too cute! I like the skirt and the darker dress. Did you sit down to see if the hems were too short? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283836 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 15:21:45 +0000 Queen Mum 283836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>buy the skirt! it is fabulous on you. I'm undecided about the black (blue) dress, but definitely pass on the tan one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-1#post-283834 Fri, 21 Jan 2011 15:16:28 +0000 rute 283834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went to Zara to try a new type of skirt I see everywhere.. but I'm not sure if it is flattering and if it's appropriate for a 42 woman.<br /> 1/2 - black skirt<br /> 3 - dress with voluminous skirt<br /> 4/5 - same dress but in another color</p> <p>So which one(s) should I buy? </p>
