I love the detail of that skirt! I think it looks GORGE! I agree, perhaps another top, tucked in and slightly fitted? In my head: I picture you bookending this skirt with a bright top &amp; matching tights </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1042019 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 00:42:05 +0000 Mellllls 1042019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i tend to agree it's a bit too much volume for my taste. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1042015 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 00:39:42 +0000 pil 1042015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Diana, I love this on you and am looking forward to seeing other stylings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041901 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 21:43:55 +0000 Lyn D. 1041901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah- Men can be sooo practical!<br />I would keep and enjoy, maybe just not on date nights. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041821 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 18:09:04 +0000 cciele 1041821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the draping of the skirt. Glad you are keeping it -- can't wait to see how you style it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041703 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 15:21:26 +0000 Diana 1041703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, all. I will keep and play with styling ideas (Might be a while though as I am busy this week and will be leaving on a trip on Saturday).&nbsp; </p> <p>I can definitely see it with a fitted dark top, tights, and boots.&nbsp; Like many of you have said, that is an easy way to let the skirt have the spotlight.&nbsp; This would be a pretty dressy look though, just because of all the black/grey.&nbsp; I would love to figure out a way to wear it to work though, which I think would require a lighter/more casual top.&nbsp; Maybe a sweater would work, will have to play around a bit.&nbsp; I actually think it'll be a <i>great</i> winter skirt because it's very warm!&nbsp; </p> <p>Oh, and I totally forgot about the best comment my husband made when he saw this skirt for the first time:&nbsp; </p> <p>"But how do you sit down in it?&nbsp; Won't it pop when you sit down???"</p> <p>.... maybe I should hide a whoopee cushion in it...&nbsp; ;)</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041685 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 14:45:14 +0000 Vix 1041685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Diana --</p> <p>Another vote for "keep and try a&nbsp;simple fitted top." I think you'll have a lot of fun in it. </p> <p>If you did a column of color (same or tonal) from top to tights&nbsp;I bet you could even get away with shoes/boots that&nbsp;share the spotlight with the skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041680 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 14:35:03 +0000 Thistle 1041680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the skirt on you, with the caveat this is not traditional figure flattery. But who cares!&nbsp; It is awesome and fun!</p> <p>I do agree with Janet that I would let the skirt sing. Make it the center of the outfit so it isn;t competing. And I think a more fitted top (as others have said) would help with that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041589 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 07:57:40 +0000 ramya 1041589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My DH would say that "It looks like your skirt is stuck after you went to ladies room :)" </p> <p></p> <p>But I like Anna's suggestions for this... Lets look at it with different top :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041561 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 04:31:47 +0000 Neel 1041561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the skirt! &nbsp;It's a statement piece. &nbsp;I have a printed bubble hem&nbsp;skirt and I wear it with a more fitted and sleeveless top. &nbsp;I think all that extra material down needs to be compensated with less on top.</p> <p>I don't know how to wear it with a sleeved topper though! &nbsp;I would find it a bit too heavy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041542 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 03:25:12 +0000 Amy 1041542@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE IT. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041461 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 23:31:29 +0000 Eliza 1041461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with others&nbsp;that the skirt needs to be the star, perhaps offset with a cropped jacket and a slender top with no-bulk, like a fine gauge knit. &nbsp;That said, this is way out of the realm of my experience and checking out how this has been&nbsp;styled this could be fun.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041451 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 23:16:16 +0000 Caro in Oz 1041451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Janet said I think the skirt needs to be the star.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041435 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 22:49:18 +0000 Janet 1041435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm. I kinda like it, but it is "a lot." </p> <p>I would like to see how it works styled with slim neutral top, black tights and black boots. I feel like I don't want to see bright color or other elements that pull focus from it -- keeping everything else but the skirt very simple. </p> <p>That's just me. I'm feeling more and more like one ultra distinctive piece in an outfit is enough. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041408 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 22:06:14 +0000 Diana 1041408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, all. &nbsp;I think that a more fitted top or jacket, something with waist definition&nbsp;would probably be the way to go. &nbsp;Maybe with my Bellatrix jacket? Or with a fitted vest of some sort. &nbsp;Ha, I may actually have found something that doesn't work with a fluid fit. &nbsp;I do still have plenty of fitted/structured things in my closet though so it shouldn't be a problem. &nbsp;</p> <p>Sylvie, I think you are on to something. &nbsp;The day I got this in the mail, it was like 90 degrees and the skirt is extremely heavy and made of wool. &nbsp;When I put it on to try for size, I nearly died of heat and I couldn't really abide the thought of styling it. &nbsp;So I think I need to wait for a cold day and see what inspiration strikes! &nbsp;Because of the warmth of the skirt, I know I will need tights and boots to keep my lower legs warm. &nbsp;I feel like it might make an excellent winter symphony outfit!</p> <p>Anna, I wonder if my long tail plaid riding jacket would work. &nbsp;Although it may be too much going on, with the pattern and the buttons/buckles/etc. &nbsp;A tux style like yours would probably be better (but I don't own one). &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041368 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 21:15:32 +0000 annagybe 1041368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the skirt but you need to go one of two directions. Either a more fitted top or something boxy and cropped for volume on volume. I could also see it with a long tail tux style jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041359 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 21:03:17 +0000 Anonymous 1041359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041282 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 17:12:41 +0000 ironkurtin 1041282@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it and want to see it with a more form-fitting top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041281 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 17:12:28 +0000 Sylvie 1041281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it and I think you need to wait for one of those super duper cold Boston days and you will love it too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041278 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 17:10:47 +0000 deb 1041278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would like to see it with another top.

I dont see the overwhelming at all.... The little peek of leg above the knee really makes it work IMO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041249 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 16:36:21 +0000 Diana 1041249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>By the way, I think my husband is completely perplexed by this skirt. &nbsp;He doesn't dislike it, he is just utterly confused. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041245 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 16:28:59 +0000 kellygirl 1041245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh, I love this on you. It is very dramatic but I think it suits your arty style. It doesn't look overwhelming, in my opinion. I think the shorter length in front helps mitigate the extra volume. So cool. I'm curious to read what others think and to know whether you keep it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041242 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 16:19:13 +0000 Diana 1041242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fieldmouse, this is actually not sitting at my natural waist. &nbsp;I am just&nbsp;<i>extremely short-waisted.</i> &nbsp;I do know what you mean about having the skirt sit lower though. &nbsp;Unfortunately since this was an ebay purchase, there's no guarantee I'd be able to even find the size up, and probably definitely not at this price. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041239 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 16:14:41 +0000 fieldmouse 1041239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been looking for one of those too! I think it's a good length on you, but maybe a size up would sit lower on the hips and thus reduce the overwhelmingness somewhat? I don't know how tall you are, but I'm only 5'2 and tend to prefer my AS hitched skirts to sit on the hips for this reason, so they fall down a bit straighter and the volume appears reduced, rather than have my hips puff it up </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041236 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 16:09:43 +0000 Jules 1041236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd like to see it with tights and a topper. I think it just calls for more substantial winter-weight styling and it's hard to properly judge without that context. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepresell-allsaints-bubble-skirt#post-1041225 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 15:52:08 +0000 Mo 1041225@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it, understanding that it's not traditionally flattering (in that bodycon/hourglass way). &nbsp;I have a thing for Allsaints though so I may not be the best judge </p>
