Palazzo pants likewise. Maybe also the white skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647457 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 23:40:04 +0000 unfrumped 1647457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You basically look great in everything in general but may have to be picky about whether the fit is good enough to bring&nbsp; home.<br />I dunno about the floral jacket because I'm not sure it fits you right. You could certainly rock the floral, though. <br />I think the shorts are super cute with the sweaters and sneaks and think you could get them regardless of whether you have a suit. I like those pastesl on you fine--they are sort of toned down and work great with navy, so probably denim, toon.</p> <p>For me the floral is a little big for the suit look mostly because I have trouble with the large floral on the long pants and how it breaks up the legs. I don't have that issue with florals just a bit smaller. I'm sure this is very personal preference, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647444 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 23:18:28 +0000 Anonymous 1647444@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I came back to tell you how much I love the floral suit. &nbsp;I can't agree with Angie about the pants. &nbsp;I love the pants and the shorts equally. &nbsp;</p> <p>Tell me, is the skirt shown in one of those pictures? &nbsp;On my screen, it either looks like pants or shorts. &nbsp;Of course, I love the bag too. &nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647424 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 22:38:27 +0000 catgirl 1647424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried the size 6 yesterday too. It fit my shoulders but the bottom flared away from my hips oddly, probably because it's too long and I need a petite. I'm not seeing that with you but make sure - it's a longer blazer. I found it a little too structured for me and my need to flail around. I love the idea of the floral suit in general though!</p> <p>Also tried both shorts but passed until they are on sale. I love them on you. We may be twins! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647411 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 22:22:55 +0000 Anonymous 1647411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When you commented about the jacket maybe being too masculine - I instantly got what you mean. And had to agree. &nbsp;You are too petite to lose yourself in a jacket of that size. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647408 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 22:18:46 +0000 missvee 1647408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love everything in pics 5 thru 9. And I'd say keep both pairs of shorts if you will wear them for MOTG. They're great with the casual sweaters you're showing. I can't really see the fit of the moto in pic 10. Angie has spoken on the pant suit so I'd better stay mum haha. It is a whole lotta look though.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647400 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 22:06:40 +0000 SandyG 1647400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I loved the bold floral pant and bought it last week. When I tried on the jacket though, it was too straight and boxy for my petite figure even though I liked the print. So I left it behind. But I'm not very match-matchy and I'll be happy to wear the floral pants with solid color tops.</p> <p>I hope you keep that white sweater skirt, it's tres cute.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647396 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 22:00:14 +0000 goldenpig 1647396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The size 6 blazer (pictured) feels OK but I feel like it looks a little long/big on me (or maybe it's the cut?). The size 4 I forgot to take a pic of but it felt a little tight when crossing my arms and buttoned up there was a puckering at the bust level. So I think size down is too small. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647395 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 22:00:05 +0000 Anonymous 1647395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have not read others response, but my reaction to the pants/blazer combo is that it's too much.<br /> The shorts/blazer combo looks good though, but I think the sleeves need to be scrunched to show more skin.<br /> Love the color of the mint sweater on you!</p> <p>ETA: Uh oh! My opinion doesn't line up with Angie's! Please listen to Angie and not me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647390 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 21:54:52 +0000 Angie 1647390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE the floral pants suit - much better than the shorts. Can't assess the fit of the blazer from the pic - does it feel right or a little big?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647389 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 21:53:05 +0000 rabbit 1647389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My fav is the white skirt on you, looks great with both the black and white tanks -- it's hard to find a white skirt that works well and isn't too business or too boho. &nbsp; I also like the floral shorts on you, and for a much more casual vibe the mosaic shorts look good. &nbsp; &nbsp;Not quite sure about the jacket, the palazzo pants, and length of the long sleeve sweaters, unless they are semi-tucked or pulled up a bit --this might just be a personal preference though.</p> <p>ETA: I just realized you already have the floral pencil skirt, which looks great on you. I probably wouldn't want both the pencil skirt and the shorts just because they would fill the exact same role in my outfits, but they might not in yours?&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647387 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 21:50:36 +0000 Ledonna N. 1647387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I will go back and read the responses but I did not want to be influenced.&nbsp; I love love love love the floral suit.&nbsp; I don't really like it with the knee length shorts but I like the sweaters.&nbsp; Get the suit please.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647374 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 21:34:52 +0000 texstyle 1647374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going to skip over the suit because it's just too far out of my own comfort zone - except for the shorts, I do like the floral on those and think I prefer those to the other shorts. The skirt and tops are great. Not as sure about the palazzo pants - I mean they are kind of fun but sounds like you are not sure if you'd wear them enough. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647370 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 21:27:52 +0000 Meredith 1647370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As much as I was prepared to love the suit, I really think the matchy-matchy looks you create out of your own closet are more exciting. Maybe it's the fit of the jacket or maybe I would love this more if it was all styled? Other pieces look great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647369 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 21:27:09 +0000 goldenpig 1647369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the palazzos are a little too long as is. But the perennial question of how short to hem, because I'm not sure if I'd wear it with heels or flats. This is why I have almost no pants and all skirts/dresses! I think you're right that the floral pants are not tapered enough. Plus I already have my H&amp;M floral pants. If I don't keep the blazer then I'd probably return the pants too. Then the question becomes which shorts to keep, floral or mosaic, and that would also depend somewhat on whether I keep the palazzo pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647368 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 21:26:01 +0000 Anonymous 1647368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh! &nbsp; I love it so much!!! &nbsp;I love the suit, the sweaters, the skirt, and the blazer. &nbsp;You picked so well!!! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647366 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 21:22:44 +0000 Diana 1647366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also think the jacket looks too big.&nbsp; Possibly the pants, also but maybe I just want them to be either more tapered or more cropped.&nbsp; Love the white skirt.&nbsp; Mosaic shorts are great too.&nbsp; </p> <p>I think the palazzos look fun!&nbsp; Can you walk in them?&nbsp; I feel like I'd be tripping over my hems all the time, because you want them to be PPL but then it's kind of a tripping hazard... but maybe just bc I am a klutz! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647343 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 20:55:03 +0000 columbine(erin) 1647343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the skirt on you very much. I'm with Lisa about the suit. The shorts look great, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647341 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 20:52:10 +0000 goldenpig 1647341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Lisa! Yes, I wasn't sure about the jacket which is why I didn't get it initially. This is a size 6. I tried the 4 but it was wrinkling at the bust so I think this is the correct size for my shoulders. Just not sure if it's too masculine for me, if that could be said about a floral jacket. I'm usually more of a moto or leather jacket as topper, rather than a blazer person. I'm so much of a "matching set" person that I'm tempted to get everything, but if I'm not going to wear it all together it may not be smart to get it despite the FOMO. Like the floral scarves (both the daisy and Kate Spade), I'm not really a scarf person but I felt like I had to get it to have the whole set. Wondering if I should return those.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647337 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 20:49:19 +0000 Anonymous 1647337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lots to look at here ! &nbsp;Quickly, I really like the white floppy skirt on you , as well as the mosaic shorts. &nbsp;The knit tops look good too. Re the floral suit - it's a very pretty print, but I couldn't imagine wearing it myself so won't even go there. What I did think was that the jacket looks big on you. &nbsp;I think the pants OR the shorts would be great alone, but the jacket is leaving me a bit cold.</p> <p>Both cutaway tanks look fantastic on you too. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-banana-republic-floral-suit-and-tweed-moto#post-1647317 Wed, 20 Apr 2016 20:33:23 +0000 goldenpig 1647317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The danger in going in store to make returns is that you end up going home with way more than you brought in to return! What do you think of these? Think I can get away with a floral suit or do I look ridiculous? Everything's still in the bag and I can return stuff if you think it doesn't look good on me. Initially I just bought the pencil skirt (seen here: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://goldenpig.lookfab.com/post/maximal-matchy-matchy-florals-x-3-and-matchy-matchy-mama-and-mini-me">http://goldenpig.lookfab.com/p.....-and-mini-</a>)&nbsp;but part of me is tempted to go whole hog on the floral suit (esp since I have the matching purse and can wear things separately too) and part of me is worried I'll never hear the end of the teasing from DH if he sees me in this silly getup! He hates my clown pants! Though I kinda wish I had bought the matching blazer for those H&amp;M floral pants! Do you like the shorts or pants suit more?</p> <p>The thin ribbed sweater I ended up getting in all the colors, mint, lilac, and navy and white. Pastels are not my usual color but I liked how they went with the floral suit and shorts. Do I look bad in pastels though? I ended up getting the sweater in size L (5) instead of M (6) for a little more fluid fit. I love the mosaic print shorts, and then I saw the palazzo pants and was having flashbacks to my favorite blue floral palazzos from the 90's! I am going to compare this one to the Target Marimekko version and see which one works better--this one looks more work appropriate I think, or does it still look like pajamas? I may have to get this one hemmed though.</p> <p>And the white sweater skirt, I wasn't looking for that at all, but the SA brought it when I was trying on the black and striped tanks and the tweed moto. It's a little clingy to my food baby, so I had to size up to L, but it felt rather sporty luxe. But let me know if you think it's too weird!</p>
