Congrats on taking care of yourself and celebrating you a bit. I have been on the hunt for a cocktail jumpsuit and am willing to overlook the bathroom impracticality because they are so fun! And this one is velvet! And gold! I hope it makes you feel fab when it arrives. I wonder if a sheer sleeved blouse might also look great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-with-party-outfit#post-1960643 Sun, 30 Sep 2018 23:18:56 +0000 Anonymous 1960643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like a beautiful jump suit. I could not see your Pinterest outfit as the site asked for a log in, etc. ( I have stopped visiting it as it will not allow me to get out easily.). Your outfit sounds great. Try it and see how you feel. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-with-party-outfit#post-1960615 Sun, 30 Sep 2018 18:17:13 +0000 wendy 1960615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>La Pedestrienne, I'm going to save the skirt for a "just in case".&nbsp; Thank you for the suggestion.</p> <p>Rahylou, thank you.</p> <p>Kathie, thank you for the welcome.&nbsp; I agree about the belt, iffy.&nbsp; Could go either way.</p> <p>Everyone, thank you.&nbsp; You've made me feel so much better.&nbsp; My daughter kept telling me the whole look would be too much.&nbsp; I think she means the jacket.&nbsp; I think the jacket completes the look.&nbsp; I kept thinking, "You've never really seen <i>me</i>.&nbsp; All you've ever seen is Mom."</p> <p>I'm going order the jumpsuit.&nbsp; And, I will post pics when I wear the outfit.</p> <p>So glad to be here.&nbsp; Thanks again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-with-party-outfit#post-1960613 Sun, 30 Sep 2018 17:47:37 +0000 Kathie 1960613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome to YLF! Cute outfit- I can see that the bow might get in the way of the jacket, but I think you’d have to try it on to know for sure. Looking forward to seeing the outfit once you can post pictures. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-with-party-outfit#post-1960612 Sun, 30 Sep 2018 17:47:11 +0000 rachylou 1960612@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super cute outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-with-party-outfit#post-1960609 Sun, 30 Sep 2018 17:39:16 +0000 LaPed 1960609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>J Crew's "vintage gold" velvet has caught my eye this season too. If the jumpsuit silhouette doesn't work out for you, you could always try a different piece, like the midi skirt below. Your Pinterest ensemble looks great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-with-party-outfit#post-1960606 Sun, 30 Sep 2018 16:55:55 +0000 wendy 1960606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for responding Cardiff Girl.</p> <p>It is an internet purchase.&nbsp; I haven't seen it in person.</p> <p>My assumption was/is that since it is a viscose velvet and not cotton, I would have to wear some type of smoother underneath.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-with-party-outfit#post-1960605 Sun, 30 Sep 2018 16:42:40 +0000 Cardiff girl 1960605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I ve actually seen this jumpsuit IRL and it’s a gorgeous colour and feel although I m glad that you are wearing something underneath as the top half felt very flimsy and wouldn’t cover anything other than a very modest bust.Have you tried it on or is this an internet purchase?Because you need to consider your underwear with this fabric as it’s very sheer and un forgiving but if you love it ,go for it.Jumpsuits don’t look like they are going any where anytime soon so You ll be able to wear it for a long time.l like your Pinterest board of the suggested final outfit ,that looks good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-needed-with-party-outfit#post-1960601 Sun, 30 Sep 2018 15:20:10 +0000 wendy 1960601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi!&nbsp; &nbsp;I'm new and am enjoying this site.</p> <p>Let's see, I'm 54 and am finally taking care of me.&nbsp; Losing weight, going to the gym, new hair, new make-up.&nbsp; A mid-life rebirth, I guess you would call it.</p> <p>My first style test is going to be a Christmas party for my husband's job.&nbsp; The dress is mixed.&nbsp; Some people are more dressy and some wear work attire.</p> <p>I fell in love with J.
