I bet it would look great with a chambray shirt or a more cropped loose drapey tee. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-purge-5#post-1281030 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 11:55:36 +0000 Deborah 1281030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is a pretty skirt, but I do think it's dated. If the styling suggestions don't work definitely pass it on, </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-purge-5#post-1281018 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 11:40:53 +0000 spoff 1281018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for all the advice ladies. It's been really helpful. The skirt can't be hemmed as it has a sequined detail on the bottom that makes that impossible . I have it pulled quite low on the hips and I I doubt pulling it up would make that much diffrence ,but I will try to see what that does.I love all the styling ideas and will give them a whirl as well. If after that I am still unsure I will donate it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-purge-5#post-1280931 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 05:30:38 +0000 Jenava 1280931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think it's too long, but I do think you need to tuck your top with this.&nbsp; Maybe try a tucked top and cropped topper (like a cropped denim jacket) and see if that cleans up the proportions for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-purge-5#post-1280859 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 03:50:37 +0000 Gigi 1280859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that perhaps it is a bit too long. I find that skirts that hit just below the knee can look frumpy (at least they do on me). The A-line silhouette may also be too wide coupled with the length. Hemming it might be a good idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-purge-5#post-1280843 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 03:31:19 +0000 lari 1280843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>if you love it then keep it. try to wear it maybe with linen top, dark denim shirt or some kind lace/eyelet&nbsp;sweatshirt?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-purge-5#post-1280660 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 00:58:51 +0000 nancywalters 1280660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perhaps hem it and wear it with a cropped (hitting at the waist) cream top and matching booties, or try a black moto jacket and sneakers.&nbsp; Pair it with something unexpected.&nbsp; If after trying some different possibilities you still aren't happy with it, then it might be time to pass it on.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-purge-5#post-1280282 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 16:20:37 +0000 ameelizabeth 1280282@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's beautiful, and I love the way it drapes. What about having it hemmed a little to give it a new lease on life? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-purge-5#post-1280270 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 15:54:24 +0000 Ledonna N. 1280270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>spoff-&nbsp; Is there some type of emotional connection to the skirt?&nbsp; Does it evoke a feeling from a certain time or place or event.&nbsp; Sometimes we tend to hold onto items because of that reason.&nbsp; I would say if you don't wear it give it to a thrift or someone who will find much joy in wearing the skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-purge-5#post-1280266 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 15:48:48 +0000 spoff 1280266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I usually have no problem purging but for some reason this skirt has been hard to let go of. This summer I seem to be at a loss on how to style it.I have had it forever and am now wondering if it is dated and I just don't see it because I've always loved the colour ( celery ). Give it to me straight ladies, it might be just the push I need to let it go </p>
