I say donate.<br /><br />I actually personally really dig the blouse in pic 2. But if you don't feel it, then toss. However, before doing so, I suggest trying it on with various pieces and noting what it is that doesn't work. Is is the shape? Is it the&nbsp;length? Is it how it looks under a topper?&nbsp;<br /><br />The outfit in pic 1 is cute! But if you don't love it any more, then I agree,&nbsp;moving on is the best option.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeppurge#post-891171 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 07:58:54 +0000 Hil 891171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Rachylou - 1 &amp; 2 have been relegated to the purge pile - 1 had it's time in my wardrobe, but I don't love it anymore and 2 - well I never really loved it... I am still on the fence about the skirt. I will try a couple of options and if I cant get it to work, then off it goes... https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeppurge#post-891040 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 03:18:20 +0000 rachylou 891040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ What did *we* decide? :D<br /><br />I feel the skirt is kind of blah for you and rather agree about the shirt.<br /><br />#1 I just love, but I think it was a wise decision to purge. Unless you go to a lot of gallery openings...<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeppurge#post-889982 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 07:44:53 +0000 Hil 889982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks for the belt tip - I will try this on later with a wide belt and a tuck. I doi have some brown wedge sandals which I can try too. Awesome ideas! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeppurge#post-889934 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 04:39:59 +0000 dizzys 889934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I conquer with the others on a more fitted top. Tuck or perhaps cinch with a thicker obi or elastic type belt....something to give more structure and fit up top. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeppurge#post-889926 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 04:28:04 +0000 Beth Ann 889926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hil:&nbsp; I think trying a tuck, and maybe a belt might be great.&nbsp; Do you own any wedge shoes or sandals?&nbsp; They'd be a natural with this skirt.&nbsp; The shoes you're wearing are cute, though, no need to switch them out.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeppurge#post-889918 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 04:20:00 +0000 Hil 889918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'll try a tuck and see what it looks like - I'm generally so hesitant to tuck clothes in, but I could perhaps see it working with this. The other two (1&amp;2) I ffeel quite comfortable with purging - definitely not me anymore, not even for loungewear.<br /><br />Thanks for the feedback!&nbsp;&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeppurge#post-889319 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 19:51:24 +0000 pil 889319@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Is #1 anything you could use for loungewear? That has been suggested in other threads. I "third" tucking the white tank into the skirt. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeppurge#post-889309 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 19:43:07 +0000 Kristin L 889309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ If it doesn't make you feel great, then donate it.&nbsp;<br /><br />For the skirt, I like lyn67's idea of tucking in the tank top. Do you have a more fitted top? That could work as well. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeppurge#post-889225 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 18:39:50 +0000 Thistle 889225@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I would donate #1.<br /><br />I like 2&amp; 3 on you. I definately see the skirt as fitting your style. But, if you don't feel fab in it, donate!<br /><br />I think #2 is a bit more a departure for you, but the bright floral colors are on trend, and it is flattering. Again, if you don't feel fab, donate, as you won't reach for it.<br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeppurge#post-889223 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 18:37:33 +0000 lyn67 889223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ For&nbsp;the swishy skirt I suggest tucking in the white tank and you're done(keep the denim jacket on, if possible with sleeves scrunched a bit:-)). When so much volume on lower half the usually top half looks better clingy or at least tailored, even if it's then topped with a blazer or so.<br />The top in nr 2 depends on your print prefferences. I'm not really a fan of it, but not that bad either.<br />Nr 1 is a bit too unstructured to my eyes, even if it would have bee&nbsp;qualified for a very different and arty(?) outfit-but&nbsp;still,&nbsp;not really flattering-and maybe dated too---I say you did well purging:-).&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeppurge#post-889189 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 18:13:12 +0000 Hil 889189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I did a big closet clean out this afternoon. I took out a lot of superfluous junk, to be donated or sold to the thrift shop.&nbsp;Please shoot me if I buy any more t-shirts!!!&nbsp;<br /><br />A couple of things that I debated<br /><br /><ol><li>I loved this outfit when I got it - I bought from a designer friend&nbsp;for a wedding and felt fab at the time but I don't love it anymore. In fact, looking at the pic, I really don't think I like it at all. I have purged.</li><li>This top is in great condition, but I don't think it's me.</li><li>4. &amp; 5.&nbsp;OK - this is all about the skirt...Does this work at all? I love the swishyness of the skirt, but I really don't know how to style it. I am going to an outdoors&nbsp;baby naming ceremony next Monday morning and I thought this skirt might work... just don't really know how to style it!</li></ol>Thanks for the feedback! x<br />
