I can just see it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-614575 Tue, 08 May 2012 02:10:37 +0000 Kyle 614575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is the first skirt too large? But, wow, outfit 4 is soooo cool. I never would have thought to style it this way, but it is perfect for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-614026 Mon, 07 May 2012 12:34:04 +0000 Janet 614026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It sounds like you already have your answer on the first skirt (I agree with the consensus), but I had to tell you how totally fab number 4 is! I love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613982 Mon, 07 May 2012 09:41:52 +0000 lyn67 613982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love nr 3. 4,5 very much-keep for sure. Don't like the chevron skirt-is it a high and low skirt for that matter? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613940 Mon, 07 May 2012 06:35:22 +0000 ManidipaM 613940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're sorted about the chevron skirt (was it meant to be hi-lo or is it just misbehaving with you?), so I just wanted to add that I love the others, especially the cream skirt and pink shirt, but most especially the skirt under a flowy breezy top that is so, SO, so very much 'a la Denise'! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613800 Mon, 07 May 2012 01:34:26 +0000 christy 613800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#4 seems so *you*! I love it! Love the cream skirt, but not as wild about the chevron one. I think the pink shirt is a pretty color on you. Hard to tell about the aqua tee since it's tucked into the skirt, but from what I can see, I like it. You have such a distinctive style that I really enjoy. Wish I could pull it off! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613799 Mon, 07 May 2012 01:33:52 +0000 CocoLion 613799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ladies -- thank you for the astute feedback! I wasn't loving the Bobeau skirt on me; where it sits on my proper waist looked wrong so I pulled it down to belly button level. My waist is very high and the skirt was making me look busty and frumpy. But it doesn't look right pulled down either. So with your permission I am returning.</p> <p>The aqua tee is intended to go with the skirt, I am returning that also. Besides, the cap sleeves emphasize my sloping shoulders a bit too much, don't you think?</p> <p>I was on the fence about the cream skirt but now with your feedback I feel better about keeping it! I am happy that it works well with some of my existing tops.</p> <p>As far as the pink shirt goes, here is a link:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/halogen-sleeveless-knit-shirt/3233233?origin=related-3233233-0-0-1-2" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/ha.....33-0-0-1-2</a></p> <p>Vix, great question about my style going in a prep direction. No, it's not. But I wear button downs for work as a server and I could see myself wearing this on an extremely hot summer day. The top is very well made I'm happy to report and the fit is perfect. So I think I'm keeping it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613794 Mon, 07 May 2012 01:31:00 +0000 Jonesy 613794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the cream skirt! Is it possible that the chevron skirt is too big for you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613779 Mon, 07 May 2012 01:25:55 +0000 Jenava 613779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pink skirt is fantastic on you. I can see that working really well with the other style elements that you have. Is it Trouve? I think it might be Trouve... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613761 Mon, 07 May 2012 01:16:26 +0000 Amy 613761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#4 is totally stunning. Wow.</p> <p>I'm not crazy about the chevron skirt either, FWIW. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613754 Mon, 07 May 2012 01:10:28 +0000 Vix 613754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Cocolion --</p> <p>Love way the cream skirt looks on -- #4 seems incredibly "you!" </p> <p>Not sure if you are veering your style toward prep or not...if yes, I'd keep the sleeveless polo. If not, I'd look for a bright warm pink that you can swap right into #3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613652 Sun, 06 May 2012 21:19:08 +0000 Meredith1953 613652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 4 and 5 particularly 4! So beautiful! I don't care for the blbeau skirt on you. There is definitely something about it that seems to hit you in the wrong place on the waist hip. That pink top in 3 is a lovely color on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613647 Sun, 06 May 2012 21:12:04 +0000 Deborah 613647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the cream skirt, totally fab and very you. The other items are just not grabbing me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613637 Sun, 06 May 2012 21:01:24 +0000 Kari 613637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The shape/fit/cut of the cream skirt really blows the chevron Bobeau one out of the water. No contest that #4-5 are my favorites! I quite like the color of the pink top on you too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613635 Sun, 06 May 2012 20:59:45 +0000 Jjsloane 613635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Of all of these I would say #4 is most You. Beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613626 Sun, 06 May 2012 20:52:59 +0000 Midwest Girl 613626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely in outfits 4 &amp; 5-they both hit the mark! I would pass on the other items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613621 Sun, 06 May 2012 20:47:43 +0000 Transcona Shannon 613621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I cannot take my eyes off your outfit in pic #4 - breathtaking Denise! This is crazy beautiful on you!</p> <p>I'm not loving the chevron skirt on you. The shape of the skirt is wrong - I vote return. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613565 Sun, 06 May 2012 19:10:42 +0000 christieanne 613565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say nay on the chevron skirt and yay on the others. The last two stylings with the pleated skirt are "you" for sure and looking fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613548 Sun, 06 May 2012 18:50:07 +0000 Kiwichik 613548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I looked at the photos before I read your post &amp; Thought immediately that 1-3 did not look like you. I agree 4&amp;5 are very you &amp; look great so keep the cream skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613542 Sun, 06 May 2012 18:44:04 +0000 morethanbeige 613542@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love #3/4/5. Wow, so cool! The pink shirt looks so good with your skin tone and I am loving the full cream skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613537 Sun, 06 May 2012 18:37:44 +0000 Laura 613537@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Bobeau skirt looks much better on you than it did on me. I haven't seen it on AJ. I really like it with the t-shirt in #1! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613535 Sun, 06 May 2012 18:35:43 +0000 Angie 613535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE the pleated skirt - this is an AMAZING style transition for you - and I am loving it! So romantic, yet the outfits still look like "Cool Denise". You have got it going on, sister. WELL DONE. You rock my style world. </p> <p>#4 and #5 blew me away - they are 10s!</p> <p>Love the pink button down shirt too - perfectly breezy and elegant for a sweltering day and does not need a cami. Care to share the link? </p> <p>I vote return the bobeau skirt. The chevron pattern is widening the silhouette. Try the same concept in a black skirt. </p> <p>Not sure about the turquoise tee. Perhaps we can see it restyled? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613533 Sun, 06 May 2012 18:34:09 +0000 crazyone 613533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo: maybe we have the same issues (though mine are more with thighs than hips) but yes, I feel the same way about the way that skirt sits on Denise's hips. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613532 Sun, 06 May 2012 18:33:24 +0000 crazyone 613532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise, I feel like the skirt in 1-3 is not sitting at the right point of your waist. Can it sit a little higher?</p> <p>The cream skirt is definitely a winner, and those three stylings are all wonderful.</p> <p>Love the color of the pink top, but would have preferred it in a woven material rather than the knit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613530 Sun, 06 May 2012 18:32:33 +0000 Mo 613530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a thumbs up on the cream skirt, but don't care for how the chevron skirt is sitting on your hips. It isn't streamlined enough there for me. (of course, I may be projecting my own hip issues here lol) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krs----from-nordstrom-hot-weather-separates#post-613525 Sun, 06 May 2012 18:24:51 +0000 CocoLion 613525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What do we think?</p> <p>Items up for debate are: Bobeau chevron skirt, Caslon aqua tee, pink knit button down shirt, and cream pleated skirt.</p> <p>Are these "me"? 4/5 feel more me, 1/2/3 are a little out of my comfort zone.</p> <p>1 -- Bobeau chevron skirt (same as AJ's) and Caslon tee.<br /> 2 -- Bobeau skirt with pink knit button down (Caslon or Halogen).<br /> 3 -- Cream skirt (brand?) with pink shirt.<br /> 4 -- Cream skirt with a top I already own.<br /> 5 -- Cream skirt with a top I already own.</p> <p>THANK YOU for helping me make the right style choices! </p>
