The coat seems large to me, but I like it in principle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1834101 Mon, 07 Aug 2017 03:46:15 +0000 rachylou 1834101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh thanks so much Donna! I'm gonna try petites for sure now. *My* size was just crazy big and long. It IS amazing how size can change a thing on a body. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1834059 Mon, 07 Aug 2017 01:28:17 +0000 DonnaF 1834059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachylou, the dress is PXS.&nbsp; I ordered XXS, PXXS, and PXS.&nbsp; My normal dress size is PS, but reviews and Angie said it ran a size or two big so I ordered down a size and more.&nbsp; The XXS was crazy long on me, and the PXS wasn't loose enough on me even to remove the PXXS from its packaging.&nbsp; I am 5' 1", and for the most part P4 or sometimes P2.&nbsp; I am pretty sure Halogen measurements are staggered such that a PM will be narrower than M, so you may want to try both PM and PS.</p> <p>It's crazy, isn't it, how the wrong size can look so bad and (sometimes) the right size can look just the opposite! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1833971 Sun, 06 Aug 2017 22:35:58 +0000 unfrumped 1833971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dress is a slam dunk. Live the sweater style. Hope sizing works. EF sizing is hard for me unless I can compare- XSvs PS vs S usually and depends on whether it's long or boxy.<br /> Coat is definitely better with pants. Not just the length, but I think the slight boxy- kimono style looks good over " long" line of pants and footwear- as you say, more like a jacket topper. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1833894 Sun, 06 Aug 2017 18:12:52 +0000 Janet 1833894@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the coat, with pants and jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1833890 Sun, 06 Aug 2017 18:07:14 +0000 rachylou 1833890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok. I did try the dress. And Angie thought it would be me. It's such a cool dress. You look so awesome. But there was only an M and it was huge-mongous. I see online says it runs big and the dress is not at any store in my area in a smaller size - or online for that matter. So I'm now waiting for it to come back at regular price. That's ok.</p> <p>Anyhoo, Donna, what size did you get, can I ask? Did you do petites? The dress you got is a nice length. The M came down way past my knees. Lol. I don't see how that's possible. Lol. I'm an M gosh darn it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1832889 Thu, 03 Aug 2017 20:04:35 +0000 DonnaF 1832889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The next size up on the EF pullover should be arriving between the 6th-9th, so the current one is not going back until I can compare the two.</p> <p>I am still undecided about the coat and may not make my final decision until the weather get cooler. Jaileen, the 3/4 sleeves were actually a big part of its appeal since I am a major sleeve scruncher. I would wear the coat mostly as a third piece instead of a blazer. The proportions seem to work better for me than a traditional blazer length, just as a dress over pants works better on me than a tunic over pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1832846 Thu, 03 Aug 2017 18:02:17 +0000 JAileen 1832846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the coat with pants. I'm not sure about shorter sleeves. Are you okay with that? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1832810 Thu, 03 Aug 2017 17:01:34 +0000 Barbara Diane 1832810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love everything but the coat. Not sure if it's the coat, or the coat on you. &nbsp;But I'm large plaid phobic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1832802 Thu, 03 Aug 2017 16:48:55 +0000 Anonymous 1832802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the coat looks really great on you and with pants and jeans would be waaaaay sufficiently wearable for me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1832095 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 20:36:01 +0000 JuniperGreen 1832095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>GREAT haul - love that dress and your styling of it!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1832086 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 20:25:56 +0000 Angie 1832086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good idea. It has great potential, Donna. But you need the larger size for the architectural drape. Just your look.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1832083 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 20:16:48 +0000 DonnaF 1832083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie; thanks for weighing in. Sadly, the PS is the only size sold out in this sweater. I will watch the stock through Sunday.</p> <p>Thanks for your valuable opinions, KnittingGene, Isabel, BrieN, Column, Joy, Firecracker, rachylou, Style Fan, Staysfit, griffin, and Angie. Can you tell I never wear coats? So wearing this coat with dresses and skirts is out. What do you think of it with pants and jeans? It would be in place of a blazer since I don't seem to wear blazers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1832021 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 16:10:34 +0000 Angie 1832021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE the dress. Killer.</p> <p>May I suggest a size up in the EF pullover.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1831939 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 11:54:53 +0000 gryffin 1831939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In a rush, but had to say the sweater is TDF on you!&nbsp; Love, love, love with the skirt but with the harem pants jaw drop fabulous!<br /> and necklace is amazing with it!!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1831930 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 10:57:18 +0000 Staysfit 1831930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Check the plaid coat to see if it has a hem that can be let down. If you can't tell take it to a tailor. It may be worth the cost. I like the coat, but the length is a deal breaker, it's too short. I'm not a fan of hems beneath coats. In the rain, if wearing a dress, everything below the coat hem gets soaked. In snow its the same. </p> <p>I love the dress! I love it with the kick flares! Also fond of the EF sweater and the harem pants! Nice NAS loot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1831904 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 08:30:02 +0000 Style Fan 1831904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the EF sweater on you.&nbsp; My favourite look is #6.&nbsp; You look so natural in the sweater and harem pants.&nbsp; The coat is great but I would not like dresses hanging beneath the hem.&nbsp; Is that how you would wear it?&nbsp; The necklace is perfect too.<br />I like the dress in #1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1831896 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 06:30:10 +0000 rachylou 1831896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so jealous! I LOVE the dress for you. And the coat and the sweater (esp with the harem pants). You are so chic. </p> <p>I would just look like a school girl in the dress. Ooh! That makes me mad. Lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1831859 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 02:56:01 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1831859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Joy. The dress is super duper on you--a definite keep! It looks totally fab as a dress with your ankle strap pumps, and again over pants. Very different looks--how fun! I think the coat is cute on you, and I don't object to the size of plaid on you. But it does bug me that the dress is hanging out below, and I wonder if you have a lot of tunics and things that it wouldn't work with for that reason.<br />I like the Eileen Fisher sweater both ways you've shown it here. It seems a natural choice for your style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1831855 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 02:49:55 +0000 Anonymous 1831855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorites on you from the photos are the EF sweater, the necklace, and the dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1831851 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 02:43:23 +0000 Column 1831851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress and sweater are spectacular on you! Jury still out on coat--how badly do you need it? Are you filling a wardrobe hole? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1831844 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 02:09:24 +0000 BrieN 1831844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the dress with the pants underneath. And I DO like the hem of the dress peeking out from under the coat. &nbsp;Feels maximal and fun to me. Not sure about the rest of the sizing of the coat though.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1831839 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 01:52:43 +0000 Anonymous 1831839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the dress and I really like the style and weave of the coat on you but I would like it more without visible hems below. I much prefer the sweater as you've styled it in 6 than in 5. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1831827 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 01:07:53 +0000 KnittingGene 1831827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the dress on you! And i adore the alternate styling you've done. The length of the cost would bother me and it looks pretty voluminous on you but your comfort is the important thing. I think the sweater looks great. Nicely done and I love your style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-and-reviews#post-1831825 Tue, 01 Aug 2017 01:02:07 +0000 DonnaF 1831825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Multiple orders arrived today; I can't believe that a few more are on their way to *try*. </p> <p>The dress was in the catalog and an Angie Pick. What do you think? I sized down. </p> <p>After I concluded that I missed out on the long cashmere cardigan, I ordered this coat, again sized down. All my dresses would show by an inch or two like the striped one underneath. Is that weird and a no-no? And is the plaid too large for me?</p> <p>Third is the EF sweater which would be a speedy item for me. Somehow I missed that it was cut so high on the side. Angie said she likes it in tall folks and I'm not. What do you think?</p> <p>I am wearing the sweater with an Angie Pick necklace so you can see its size and where it hangs.</p> <p>The velour tees would look better on a straighter figure and I am not super fond of tees so they (two sizes) are going back.</p> <p>The exercise bra is closer to fuschia than pink. I think the cups run slightly big and a smaller size is on its way to me. </p> <p>I just wanted to mention that the lemming Halogen kick flares are under the dress. I ordered my regular P2 size in addition to sizing up per Nordstrom's advice for Petites. The larger size is definitely my size. </p>
