It does't seem to suit your style. I can see it on a different person, but if you don't love it, let it go. Unless it will be hurting someone's feelings. That is always the issue with gifts. argh.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kp-help-me-with-this-top-please#post-1046554 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 13:11:41 +0000 Neel 1046554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@verniejane ...... You nailed it! &nbsp;I particularly look like a VERY old nana&nbsp;in the first pic. &nbsp;LOL!</p> <p>The color ..... is not my favorite </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kp-help-me-with-this-top-please#post-1046547 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 13:06:57 +0000 VernieJane 1046547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Purge! The colour isn't the problem in my opinion, but the frilly front has got to go! Old lady librarian look, grandma's closet...whatever you wanna call it, that cut is not good on anyone. But I do think the colour is nice on you, from here it looks like a pale pink or nude colour, which is more complimentary to your skin tone, in my opinion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kp-help-me-with-this-top-please#post-1046544 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 13:01:02 +0000 Neel 1046544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was secretly hoping everyone voted "purge"! &nbsp;I had already pushed it at the bottom of my closet anyways!</p> <p>You are right kkards. &nbsp;That top doesn't suit my style. &nbsp;Too fussy, frilly&nbsp;and overwhelming on my body! &nbsp;</p> <p>@anne - I do not have a very long&nbsp;neck and that frilled neckline&nbsp;together with a&nbsp;collared jacket might be just too much on me. &nbsp;Although it would help hide the weird mid-section!</p> <p>I think I would go with purge! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kp-help-me-with-this-top-please#post-1046487 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 10:24:04 +0000 kkards 1046487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hmmm, i going to say purge. &nbsp;granted i don't know very well, but from what you have posted, this doesn't seem your style at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kp-help-me-with-this-top-please#post-1046472 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 07:50:41 +0000 anne 1046472@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am not liking that shirred midsection either. I like the neckline though. How about under a jacket so that is all you can see? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kp-help-me-with-this-top-please#post-1046463 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 06:52:56 +0000 Neel 1046463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have this top for a year now (a gift) and I haven't used it even once. &nbsp;It is a bit dramatic, overly girly&nbsp;and I don't find&nbsp;the sleeve length and elasticized mid section&nbsp;flattering at all! &nbsp;To top&nbsp;it all, brown/shades of brown do not&nbsp;suit me near my face, too matchy matchy to my skin tone. &nbsp;But I would like to have the opinion of you all to see if I can work this out and learn to like it. &nbsp;More than anything I am stumped on styling ideas!</p> <p>I have tried 3 different combinations with&nbsp;1) Flared skirt 2) Tube skirt 3) Slim fit cropped&nbsp;pants and leopard print flats (I would have preferred solid brown/nude sandals but I don't own any).</p> <p>Does any of this outfit combinations work? &nbsp;Keep or Purge? </p>
