You look wonderful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-18270 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 17:06:36 +0000 Julia 18270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sihaya, silver metallic is a good idea. I have a pair of silver flats that might be even better than the black ones I wore.</p> <p>Angie I paired the first top with a pencil jean skirt and put a cami under the top as Shell suggested. I think it's better but something is still not right. I don't like the sleeveless look on me somehow, thoughts?</p> <p><a href="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk271/JuliaYLF/SAHM%20outfits/7-28-2.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i282.photobucket.com/al.....7-28-2.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-18190 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 13:10:18 +0000 Sihaya 18190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I echo the comments above on top for outfit 1 and perfection of outfit 2. I know you asked for color but you could also do something silver metallic with outfit 2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-18169 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 10:01:30 +0000 Julia 18169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dani, Becky and Shell, good suggestions of pairing a red/orange cardi with the top. I shall experiment with it when it gets cold.</p> <p>Angie a pencil skirt with that flowy top, of course! I'll try it today.</p> <p>Thanks a lot ladies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-18092 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 00:22:48 +0000 Angie 18092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous clamdigger outfit! You are a VERY stylish SAHM (for a few months :-). </p> <p>I echo the ladies concerns about the flowy top over the flowy skirt. Try wearing that top over a pencil skirt instead. </p> <p>Gorgeous watch! You will love it too. I LOOOOOOOVE my white watch. </p> <p>We want to see more! We’ve missed you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-18055 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 22:31:33 +0000 shell 18055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>becky, how funny that i was going to make the same comment on the top with the skirt. i agree that the midsection is lost with a flowy top and flowy skirt - i call it the xmas tree effect. </p> <p>for more coverage with the top, you could try a cami underneath. the necklace goes well with the neckline of the top. i could see the top looking really cute with the clams or white jeans.</p> <p>i think the top in the second photo would look great with the colors tanya mentioned. i could also see red or orange. with an interesting neckline like that though, i wouldn't want to cover it up with a cardi. but, when cooler weather prevails, i know it's necessary for warmer days where you don't plan to wear a cardi, i could see a high-waisted belt looking great with this. probably in any of the above listed colors, or white.</p> <p>very cute, julia </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-18050 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 21:43:04 +0000 Julia 18050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much everyone for your nice comments!</p> <p>Becky I see your point with a more fitted top, I guess an example would be the one in Angie's first outfit today. I didn't feel very good with the top anyway because the neckline is too low and I have to adjust it constantly to cover the bras. It's too short to wear with clamdiggers so I have to find other ways to wear it.</p> <p>Tanya I'm embarrassed that I haven't posted my new purchases yet. The white watch picture was taken when I was in HK, but the rest of the pieces are either unpacked or need to be ironed for me to take a picture. I'll do it tomorrow I promise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-18019 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 19:48:14 +0000 Becky 18019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Julia, I like the skirt in the first outfit, but I think it would look even better paired with a fitted top. Since that top is less fitted at the bottom, and the skirt is fuller, you miss the mid-section definition. The top would be great with your clams, though. The second outfit is fab! Red is also another cardi color option for that outfit. Enjoy your SAHM time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-18001 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 19:02:08 +0000 Nicole 18001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Julia</p> <p>I love both outfits...and the black and white clam digger outfit is awesome! Love your watch too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-17992 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 18:13:17 +0000 Dani 17992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Julia, you look super! My favorite is the clam digger outfit, but I really like the skirt &#38; top too. </p> <p>As for colors of cardigans, you could put a red cardigan over that outfit too. </p> <p>Enjoy your "break" as a SAHM! Some days I think working would be easier </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-17974 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 17:21:11 +0000 Anonymous 17974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits. I especially love the skirt and top. I like the A-Line of both and how they work well together on you. Very stylish SAHM. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-17972 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 17:13:53 +0000 Tanya 17972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I LOVE that watch! Perfect! Exactly what I had in mind! If I had it, I would wear it every day!</p> <p>Now, when are you going to post photos of other goodies you got in HK? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-17971 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 17:11:49 +0000 Julia 17971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Tanya! How did I forget the color combos for ink blue! We've talked about them before. Also I have a white watch now so I'll definitely wear it with them.</p> <p>Here's my watch I got while I was in Hong Kong:<br /> <a href="http://s282.photobucket.com/albums/kk271/JuliaYLF/SAHM%20outfits/?action=view&#038;current=China858.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s282.photobucket.com/al.....ina858.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-17967 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 16:53:19 +0000 Tanya 17967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both of your outfits Julia, perfect SAHM examples! You can definitely add a white jacket ( or cardigan) to the first one, and a cropped cardi to the second one. Yellow comes to my mind, but kelly green or hot pink would be cute too. Also, a big chunky watch like in Angie's blog posts would take it even further up ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-17966 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 16:48:27 +0000 Julia 17966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I need to add that in the second outfit, the colors of the top are ink blue, grey and white, in case they look like black/grey/white in the picture. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/julias-sahm-outfits-7-28-and-7-29#post-17962 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 16:41:41 +0000 Julia 17962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just to give you an update, I've decided to take a break from work and enjoy the SAHM life for a couple of months. Angie's flop-proof outfit formulas were just in time and I have been wearing them every day since I came back from my vacation.</p> <p>7-28, the skirt outfit. Is the jean skirt smart enough? I could add a white fitted jacket over it, right?<br /> <a href="http://s282.photobucket.com/albums/kk271/JuliaYLF/SAHM%20outfits/?action=view&#038;current=7-28.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s282.photobucket.com/al.....t=7-28.jpg</a></p> <p>7-29, the clamdigger outfit. I can add a cropped cardi when it gets cold. Any suggestions of what color would be good for this outfit?<br /> <a href="http://s282.photobucket.com/albums/kk271/JuliaYLF/SAHM%20outfits/?action=view&#038;current=7-29.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s282.photobucket.com/al.....t=7-29.jpg</a></p> <p>Thanks in advance! </p>
