Here is the back again, plus some button showing. I buttoned it once, which is too tight, but I don't generally use that to decide on overall fit for jackets, however it is close to where my (short) waist is. </p> <p>Also, I thought I took this Angie pick Rachel Roy skirt out of my shopping cart, believing it would be too long. But, lo and behold, it arrived today, not too long, and matching the jacket as I thought it might. </p> <p>Further comments? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return----3-shop-fest-aka-rainy-holiday-weekend-items-that-showed-up-today#post-1263495 Wed, 28 May 2014 23:34:25 +0000 Kristin L 1263495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the pants look great on you. I don't see anything off with the top or the jacket. Like Janet suggested, can you add a pic of the jacket button? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return----3-shop-fest-aka-rainy-holiday-weekend-items-that-showed-up-today#post-1263460 Wed, 28 May 2014 22:49:37 +0000 Janet 1263460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't see any evidence of either piece being big in the bust -- it looks like they fit you well. Beautiful pieces.&nbsp;</p> <p>The pants are all kinds of terrific on you!&nbsp; </p> <p></p> <p>ETA: Actually, the jacket fit is hard to evaluate. Can you take pics with it closed? It looks like it might be too long in the upper chest for you -- like the darts are falling too low, below your bustline. That can actually very easily be mistaken for something being "too big" in the bust -- I have that problem a lot since I am short-torsoed and my breasts sit a little higher.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return----3-shop-fest-aka-rainy-holiday-weekend-items-that-showed-up-today#post-1263455 Wed, 28 May 2014 22:44:17 +0000 Aida 1263455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(Psssst we need that back photo! ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return----3-shop-fest-aka-rainy-holiday-weekend-items-that-showed-up-today#post-1263229 Wed, 28 May 2014 17:08:58 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1263229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for the suggestion to look at the back. Here is a pic.</p> <p>If anything it is tight in the shoulders and upper back. I have a shortish neck and wide shoulders ... However going up in sizes tends to result in the bust bag hipness being even more pronounced. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return----3-shop-fest-aka-rainy-holiday-weekend-items-that-showed-up-today#post-1263192 Wed, 28 May 2014 16:41:40 +0000 Diana 1263192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the floral pants!&nbsp; I want them!</p> <p>The jacket and top look OK to me in these photos, but do you have photos from the back with your arms down?&nbsp; I find that jackets that are too big in the chest often have weird bunching or bagging in the back and sagging at the back of the shoulders.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return----3-shop-fest-aka-rainy-holiday-weekend-items-that-showed-up-today#post-1263177 Wed, 28 May 2014 16:29:22 +0000 columbine(erin) 1263177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't see the pieces as being too big either. I'm a fan of the mint, gold, polka dot outfit, that's fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return----3-shop-fest-aka-rainy-holiday-weekend-items-that-showed-up-today#post-1263169 Wed, 28 May 2014 16:19:07 +0000 CocoLion 1263169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't see these as looking too big in the chest. But I'm viewing from a phone. I like all three pieces on you with my favorite being the white top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return----3-shop-fest-aka-rainy-holiday-weekend-items-that-showed-up-today#post-1263160 Wed, 28 May 2014 16:06:36 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1263160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like ponte jackets and light green, so I thought this Ted Baker piece would be a winner. However, it is definitely too big in the bust. But 1) is it super obvious and 2) overall might it be worth keeping? I could have it altered, though it has a beautiful lining (actually a negative for being heavy) that would make that more difficult for my not very talented sewing person. </p> <p>Also, this white Emerson Fry top presents the same (too big in the bust) issue. Thoughts?</p> <p>And finally, I thought I'd try the print silk pants trend with these Haute Hippies from the Nordstrom sale. They looked like pajamas, I think, with a silk front top that is a good color match, but somewhat better with a black APC sweatshirt. Are they keepers? What would you suggest for length?</p> <p>Thanks for looking! </p>
