You look great in everything and I hope you had a ball shopping. You have certainly not lost your knack thats for sure!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/huge-shopping-spree-part-3#post-83962 Mon, 03 Aug 2009 17:20:26 +0000 Vani 83962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya, you look fantastic in everything! I am so glad to see you back to your cheerful self and posting </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/huge-shopping-spree-part-3#post-83960 Mon, 03 Aug 2009 17:14:38 +0000 LoP 83960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya, you look amazing in all of them in all three threads. I just wanted to say I'm happy to see your posts and sounds like you feel better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/huge-shopping-spree-part-3#post-83921 Mon, 03 Aug 2009 14:48:26 +0000 Dawn 83921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah pity about the strapless dress- I often find H&#38;M quality to be somewhat lacking at times. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/huge-shopping-spree-part-3#post-83916 Mon, 03 Aug 2009 14:30:12 +0000 Tanya 83916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all once again!</p> <p>Bella, please feel free to get the plaid shirt, or whatever else you want.</p> <p>I am taking the retro strapless dress back - noticed a quality issue with a very uneven hem, bad sewing. I have been thinking on whether to keep the first 2 Express tops, but since I need basics for the lab and they were 2 for $26, they are staying.</p> <p>I do not think I did a good job on returns, only taking two things back total </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/huge-shopping-spree-part-3#post-83895 Mon, 03 Aug 2009 13:14:24 +0000 Dawn 83895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous! Seriously, best shopping spree I've seen in ages!</p> <p>1) Stunning colour on you but it seems a bit blah compared to all the other lovely things you have bought.. but then again, it highlights your tiny waist. I would say keep as it could be a handy basic to have in your wardrobe.</p> <p>Ooh I like the stripes on this top, keep!</p> <p>2) Very cool. I love all the colours in this shirt!</p> <p>3) I love this skirt! Keep!</p> <p>4) Keep this dress! The wrap looks stunning on you!</p> <p>5) I absolutely adore this dress... If I were wearing it, I would add a denim jacket or a leather jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/huge-shopping-spree-part-3#post-83877 Mon, 03 Aug 2009 05:18:43 +0000 Sihaya 83877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya - yet another fabulous set of loot. You were on a streak!!! All great but if you have to get rid of something, I"d ditch the 2 Express shirts in #1. Also for the last dress, I'd consider a plain bolero jacket and leggings to offset the slightly shorter length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/huge-shopping-spree-part-3#post-83828 Mon, 03 Aug 2009 00:59:02 +0000 Laura 83828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya, I looked at all of your new purchases and enjoyed it so much, and wanted to comment that it is fun to see you branching out in new directions, and into some fun colors, and still being very you the whole time. Great to have you posting again!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/huge-shopping-spree-part-3#post-83827 Mon, 03 Aug 2009 00:51:18 +0000 Kyle 83827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya -- you look fantastic -- I love all of your new additions. Mostly, though, it's wonderful to see you back on the forum. You have been missed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/huge-shopping-spree-part-3#post-83826 Mon, 03 Aug 2009 00:50:25 +0000 Kyle 83826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya -- you look fantastic -- I love all of your new additions.

They are good for casual days, running errands, going for a walk in the park, etc. Judging from the comments you hear in your lab, they would also be good for that since everyone is super casual. </p> <p>I think I tried that wrap dress on at the YLF convention and just didn't feel comfortable in it. I knew I would be fussing with it all day and making sure the wrap was in place. It needs your tiny waist!</p> <p>Purple plaid shirt, gray skirt, and retro strapless dress are all adorable. Very playful and sweet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/huge-shopping-spree-part-3#post-83809 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 23:05:11 +0000 bella 83809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great haul. </p> <p>I like everything in this batch, except #1 and #2. Keep them only if you need casual summer tops.<br /> H&#38;M plaid top is fab, do you mind if I copy it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/huge-shopping-spree-part-3#post-83738 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 18:54:54 +0000 Angie 83738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And the marathon continues! Here we go: </p> <p>1. Beautiful colour. A good typical Tanya top. Very nice! On the fence about keeping it though. </p> <p>2. Sweet! Like this even more. KEEP.</p> <p>3. Adorable skirt! Needs a tucked-in svelte black top. KEEP!</p> <p>4. Fab wrap! VERY Tanya. Absolutely keep!</p> <p>5. So fab! Nice with a denim jacket – tone down the sweetness. </p> <p>I'd say you have four to five items that aren't 10's out of the whole bunch. What an AMAZING SHOPPING SPREE! I'm so glad that you have clothes that fit again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/huge-shopping-spree-part-3#post-83727 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 18:19:09 +0000 PalmFronds 83727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, go H&#38;M!</p> <p>Loved everything esp the wrap dress. The first knit top was the only thing that wasn't a full 10, I think because of where it hit on the arm.Your arms are gorgeous, that's not the issue. It seemed to be half way between a cap sleeve and not, so not sure.The color is fab though.<br /> Enjoy everything! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/huge-shopping-spree-part-3#post-83713 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 18:01:09 +0000 Ana 83713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1. These knit tops are nice for hot weather, and they look nice on you.</p> <p>2. YAY! Purple plaid! I really want to find a more refined plaid shirt like this one. Keep!</p> <p>3. This grey skirt looks really nice! What tops will you wear with it? </p> <p>4. YES! LOVE this wrap dress on you. My favorite out of this bunch.</p> <p>5. So adorable! Definitely keep this! It fits you perfectly, and you can do so much with it! Great for everyday layered with a jacket or sweater, or an afternoon date, etc. Have you tried it with the CM white vest you just got? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/huge-shopping-spree-part-3#post-83700 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 17:37:43 +0000 Tanya 83700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is the final installment . Thank you for your patience :)</p> <p>1. Express top - another with a button down cut in a knitted material. And I love those little chest pockets , which work very well on my modest bust line. They were 'buy one get one free' so I got them in pink and purple/black stripes</p> <p><a href="http://s300.photobucket.com/albums/nn19/dancing_starr/080109/?action=view&#038;current=DSCN4166.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s300.photobucket.com/al.....CN4166.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://s300.photobucket.com/albums/nn19/dancing_starr/080109/?action=view&#038;current=DSCN4167.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s300.photobucket.com/al.....CN4167.jpg</a></p> <p>2. H&#38;M plaid shirt - inspired by Angie's recent post on the come back of the nineties. I managed to find a feminine version - fitted, in 'my' color, with the enhancing chest pockets</p> <p><a href="http://s300.photobucket.com/albums/nn19/dancing_starr/080109/?action=view&#038;current=DSCN4168.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s300.photobucket.com/al.....CN4168.jpg</a></p> <p>3. H&#38;M full grey-navy skirt - I love the shape, high waist, and a bit of sheen in the material</p> <p><a href="http://s300.photobucket.com/albums/nn19/dancing_starr/080109/?action=view&#038;current=DSCN4169.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s300.photobucket.com/al.....CN4169.jpg</a></p> <p>4. H&#38;M wrap dress that quite a few ladies here have - I have been eying it for ages and finally got it</p> <p><a href="http://s300.photobucket.com/albums/nn19/dancing_starr/080109/?action=view&#038;current=DSCN4170.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s300.photobucket.com/al.....CN4170.jpg</a></p> <p>5. H&#38;M blue roses dress - I LOOVE the retro shape, very 50's, and it fit perfectly, which is rare for me for dresses with a lot of built in shape. Not sure if it is a tad too short. If I decide to keep it I might add removable thin black straps. Also not sure where I would wear it, other than to dance parties.</p> <p><a href="http://s300.photobucket.com/albums/nn19/dancing_starr/080109/?action=view&#038;current=DSCN4172.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s300.photobucket.com/al.....CN4172.jpg</a> </p>
