In #2, it is the print, not you. The rough nature of the print and the way the print has lines and shadows is going to create unwanted texture on everyone's mid-section. Same thing happening on the arms. There are all of these horizontal lines on the sleeves but when you look at your arms in picture #3 you have very smooth arms with zero lines. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-399706 Sun, 07 Aug 2011 08:14:03 +0000 rute 399706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would keep 1 and 3. 2 is not very flattering for you!<br /> You have an amazing taste for shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-399626 Sun, 07 Aug 2011 01:48:42 +0000 Janet 399626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Re: the fit in #2, is the issue with the shoulders that there is too much fabric/room in the shoulder strap area in the XL? If so, that's a easy tailoring fix -- I'm short-torsoed and have had it done many times on sleeveless tops and dresses.</p> <p>I prefer the shoes with the buckle detail. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-399621 Sun, 07 Aug 2011 01:44:10 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 399621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, opinion appears divided on the shoes I will mull a bit more and check my budget; maybe I can manage to keep them both since they were each a good deal.</p> <p>The thing with the mesh top is that in photos (and maybe in person too) the broken-up nature of the print makes it look like it's too stretched over my midsection - it actually fits really well (and is the largest size anyway). I was hoping that the ruching and print would disguise the tummy, but apparently it's emphasizing it instead. </p> <p>Thanks, everybody! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-399395 Sat, 06 Aug 2011 18:39:56 +0000 Freckles 399395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The black tank from Amber Moon is my favourite top I've seen on you. I adore that the shoulders aren't just straight but have shape. The not too sweet sweetheart neckline is killer stunning. I know it is a cowl and irl looks different but I don't think this could look bad. I have a similar shoulder/stomach figure so know if the shoulders are too big how it feels frumpy but don't see that at all in the pic.</p> <p>Love the cardigan and shoes. Go for comfiest. I have to laugh at myself as I was thinking the toe detail was hip and young. I'm an old lady though so I guess that just proves your theory that they are old lady shoes...</p> <p>I'm not a fan of teh mesh top. What does it look like with white bottoms?</p> <p>Absolutely spectacular shopping!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-399260 Sat, 06 Aug 2011 14:09:36 +0000 Angie 399260@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Adore the cardigan! </p> <p>Did you try a size up on the mesh top? </p> <p>The sleeveless amber sun tops are GREAT and you look sensational in them. </p> <p>Go with the more comfy pair of shoes - both are fantastic.</p> <p>WELL DONE </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-399252 Sat, 06 Aug 2011 13:40:39 +0000 marianna 399252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the cardi and the Amber Sun cowl neck. I've seen that one IRL and it's a great basic layering piece. The other Amber Sun top is tricky to wear, IMO, because of the line under the bust. I like both pairs of pumps -- pick the one that's most comfy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-399250 Sat, 06 Aug 2011 13:37:51 +0000 Anonymous 399250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the cardigan! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-399241 Sat, 06 Aug 2011 12:55:26 +0000 Suz 399241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, lovely!</p> <p>I think the cardi in #1 is terrific for you; I can imagine you look amazing in the colour. A great topper for your next public reading! </p> <p>I also REALLY like top #2; my first impression was FAB because the neckline is pretty on you and draws attention up to your face, but then I noticed it seems to maybe have some fit issues. Could you try it in a different size (or sizes?) I am always amazed at how sometimes that can make all the difference with an item. Sometimes it is no go, but in this case, worth a shot, if available? </p> <p>The black top in #3 is also great. If the shoulders are a problem, can you have them tightened (taken up) a tiny bit? Sometimes that will be enough. </p> <p>As for the shoes, I like the plainer Steve Maddens better, personally, but both are nice. Which is more comfortable? The others have a rounder toe box so might feel better over long periods, depending on the shape of your foot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-399233 Sat, 06 Aug 2011 12:32:35 +0000 bj1111 399233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>the black top in 2 is my fave...it gives you a waist. i like the cardi as well, but i think the shorts need a shorter sweater?</p> <p>steve madden in silver is my fave. i like the buckle detail on miz mooz. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-399092 Sat, 06 Aug 2011 03:18:23 +0000 sarah 399092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that the cardi and the black top are fab! I'm don't have very strong feelings one way or the other about the shoes - they both look great to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-398792 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 20:49:10 +0000 Aida 398792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the cardigan, and if it's really purple even better! I'm not sure on the patterned top, but I do like the black one. I'd go with the Steve Madden heels over the Me Toos, for the same reasons as Marley </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-398725 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 19:20:53 +0000 Marley 398725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the cardigan - I bet it is really pretty IRL! I also like both tops - I think #2 is a great "neutral" pattern that you can get a lot of wear out of by layering over it - I think I would scruff up the sleeves to the elbow if I were you to give it a little more interest - I also think it shows off your beautiful neck and collar bones. #3 is also very nice - like the different panels - gives it interest and again this shows off your neck and collar bones! As far as the shoes go - I like the Steve Madden's best - they look more modern to me and clean. The Me Toos are just too "older lady" for my taste! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-398698 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 19:05:15 +0000 lyn* 398698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 1, 3 and 4 :)</p> <p>I think the cardi drapes beautifully on you; and I think the top in #3 you'll get a lot of use out of, as it is very versatile. I am not a big fan of the fit of #2 however.</p> <p>I like the simple Steve Madden pumps; I don't really like the buckles on the Me Too; they seem rather fussy without adding elegance. Maybe if there was only one? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-398686 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 18:55:28 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 398686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yeah, I meant to say that the Me Toos are maybe a tad more comfy when tried on, but both seem OK (insamuch as you can tell with shoes before you actually wear them for a whole day). I personally like the buckle detail but was afraid it was a little old lady-ish as opposed to the more pointed toes of the SMs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-398679 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 18:51:13 +0000 Inge 398679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I too like the cardigan, Laura! I'm not sure about the first B&amp;W top, there's something about the fit I think. I like the drapey collar of the black one. Both pairs of shoes are nice, I'm with Sparky about the buckle detailing adding a bit more interest, but I would definitely go for the pair that is most comfortable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-398667 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 18:44:30 +0000 Sparky 398667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the Bobeau sweater looks fab on you! Not so sure about the two tops. I love the little detailing on the Me Too pumps; subtle but giving them some texture and added interest. Are both pairs equally comfy? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keepreturn-nas-non#post-398660 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 18:38:53 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 398660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I already returned some NAS items that weren’t quite right, but still have a few I am wondering about. I have given up on trying to get good photos and am settling for merely non-execrable (ish). </p> <p>1 - This is the Bobeau ribbed cardigan - looks black in the photo but is actually dark purple.<br /> 2- This is a mesh knit top from Amber Moon - I feel good in it but when I look at the pictures I am not so sure.<br /> 3- Ditto this black tank from Amber Moon - it is hard to see the cowl neck detail. I am leaning toward return on this one - I really need a L in the shoulders and an XL at the tummy (this is an XL). </p> <p>And non-NAS, some shoes. When it rains it pours, I guess - I needed to replace my black heels and found these two pair in different places, both on sale. Which do you like, or think will be more useful? 4 is Steve Madden, 5 is Me Too. </p>
