I bought mine to go under a specific jacket, and now that it's hot out I&nbsp;haven't experimented with it yet with other things, but I think it will be versatile. I don't think it's necessarily summery at all- especially since you have to wear another layer under it. I'll probably never wear mine by itself, since it's a little bare for me, but under various jackets.<br />You look great in it, though, as a tank!</p> <p>I'm also taking notes from Inge's links and Rae's great styling ideas.</p> <p>Here's a picture of how I've worn mine:<br />(with a dressy bomber jacket,&nbsp;black tuxedo pants, and heels)</p> <p>I'll be eager to see how else you wear yours! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eileen-fisher-chainmail-mesh-tank#post-982093 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 22:08:33 +0000 chewyspaghetti 982093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it- keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eileen-fisher-chainmail-mesh-tank#post-982091 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 22:04:57 +0000 ironkurtin 982091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this looks lovely and could be a special basic piece.&nbsp; Think of metallics as neutrals! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eileen-fisher-chainmail-mesh-tank#post-982090 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 22:00:59 +0000 amiable 982090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! &nbsp;Terrific tank! &nbsp;Please do keep it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eileen-fisher-chainmail-mesh-tank#post-982087 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 21:56:10 +0000 unfrumped 982087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks great! It's not WARM, but it's&nbsp; not summery-only--for example, looks fab&nbsp; the way you showed it with denim and boots.</p> <p>For me it would be weekend wear only, so for these items, I just have to keep reviewing my casual/smart casual/night out capsule(s) and decide how many items/outfits I need there, since I'm trying to put the right % of resources in the right areas. But in terms of wearability and versatility, it's a great layering piece, the neutral sparkle can skew light or dark, warm colors or cool, show a lot or a little of it depending on topper, and it's subtle enough that it can be for some daytiime look and not just evening, so I imagine you could wear it lots of times &amp; places.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eileen-fisher-chainmail-mesh-tank#post-981960 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 19:48:36 +0000 rae 981960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it! I don't think it's summer only at all. In addition to the ways you showed us, I&nbsp;could see it:&nbsp; <ul> <li>with dressy pants as a sparkly holiday outfit</li> <li>as a shell with a pencil skirt and blazer</li> <li>feminizing casual/distressed/boyfriend jeans and a moto</li> <li>with a slim maxi or midi skirt and ankle boots for winter</li> </ul> I'm sure there are many more possibilities, too. Think of it as a white blouse alternative. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eileen-fisher-chainmail-mesh-tank#post-981944 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 19:39:09 +0000 Inge 981944@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, that's three fab ways already:-) Also love Suz's suggestion to layer it over a button-down.</p> <p>Here are a few blog posts with more ideas on how to wear items with a bit of sparkle:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2012/02/27/dazzling-your-lunch-date-with-daytime-sparkle/">http://youlookfab.com/2012/02/.....e-sparkle/</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2011/11/21/12-ways-to-add-sparkle-to-a-holiday-outfit/">http://youlookfab.com/2011/11/.....ay-outfit/</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2007/12/24/can-you-wear-sparkle-during-the-day/">http://youlookfab.com/2007/12/.....g-the-day/</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2011/11/07/10-ways-to-liven-up-your-work-wardrobe/">http://youlookfab.com/2011/11/.....-wardrobe/</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2012/09/17/plaid-sequins-and-tough-boots/">http://youlookfab.com/2012/09/.....ugh-boots/</a></p> <p>For colder weather, I especially like the idea of pairing it with tweed, wool, silk or leather.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eileen-fisher-chainmail-mesh-tank#post-981937 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 19:31:56 +0000 Thistle 981937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love all three outfit pairings.

I sense style sister. Your specs are really similar to mine!&nbsp;</p> <p>And that is a fab tank. I agree with Joy - it does not look too summer worn with a topper. I like all the ways you have styled it. It looks superb with white!&nbsp;</p> <p>Do you wear button downs or silk button downs? If you do, it <i>might</i> be possible to layer this over one. I have done that with a light grey sparkle tank in winter and it worked out pretty well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eileen-fisher-chainmail-mesh-tank#post-981885 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 18:16:40 +0000 Anonymous 981885@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It does not look too summery when you add a jacket or cardigan. I like all the ways you have styled it, It looks wonderful with white and your metallic sandals.<br /> Just roll those ankle lengths up a little and see what you think. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eileen-fisher-chainmail-mesh-tank#post-981884 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 18:15:00 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 981884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really, really like this top, and you've styled it beautifully!&nbsp; The second and third photos look pretty seasonless to my eye.&nbsp; I get where you're coming from, with the price, but I think this is a piece you can get a lot of use out of. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eileen-fisher-chainmail-mesh-tank#post-981879 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 18:10:32 +0000 Anonymous 981879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really pretty, and I like your style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eileen-fisher-chainmail-mesh-tank#post-981874 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 18:03:46 +0000 rebekahphoto 981874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>does not look too summery to me! I love the slight shimmer. Looks very nice with the boots &amp; jacket, good casual vibe to counter the tank dressiness </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eileen-fisher-chainmail-mesh-tank#post-981861 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 17:54:45 +0000 Betti 981861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tell me how I can get a lot of wear out of this tank. For me, it was very pricey (on sale about $112). If I can wear it&nbsp;a lot I'll keep it, because I feel great wearing it. I'm not used to dressing carefully and putting things together.&nbsp;I've been lazy about it because I've worked from home for the past 15 years. Good thing I found YLF and hopefully I'm a quick learn :)</p> <p>I played with it a bit...<br />1. taupe cami underneath, NYDJ white ankle jeans (bought them a week before I found out ankle pants are bad, oh well), Ecco Bouillon sandals.<br />2. old jean jacket, Karen Kane pants, Frye Melissa boots<br />3. same as #2, but replaced jacket with Converse Zariah Shawl Top (Target, still has tags on, lol)</p> <p>What I don't want is for this to be summer only, does it look too summery for colder months? </p>
