The first photo is so impressive....I have a connection... went shopping tonight and got some boots, flats, sailor pants, skinny jeans and had to stop to question chunky cardi vs. long jersey cardi..... jersey cardi won!!! Hoooray for long thin cardi! Love the belt. It is my fav... thanks for the inspiration. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-97238 Sun, 27 Sep 2009 03:52:36 +0000 Vani 97238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>San, when I saw the outfit Angie rated KILLER, I actually exclaimed out loud and almost fell off the couch.

I would also say killer to the power killer. You look amazing.</p> <p>I would wear that last skinny belt on your natural waist, quit a bit higher than in the photo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-97164 Sat, 26 Sep 2009 21:01:40 +0000 Anonymous 97164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, you will look much better than me when you grow up to be 55, I know that for sure!<br /> Thankyou for your help everyone who chimed in!

I hope I look like you when I grow up. </p> <p>The outfits with the thin cardi, moto jacket and belt are KILLER to the power of KILLER. Orbit TAKE OFF!</p> <p>I’d return the chunky cardi. It’s matronly somehow. Love the obi belt and the skinny belts too! Keep them on your waist :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-97087 Sat, 26 Sep 2009 14:00:36 +0000 shiny 97087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I'm blown away by all of it, even the chunkier knit cardi. I think it's kinda cute on you. A different option. I do think you're one of the few people who could pull off this sweater! I also like the skinny belts on you, especially the white one. Agree you look like you walked straight off the AT ad!</p> <p>I love to see how your style is evolving! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-97044 Sat, 26 Sep 2009 10:03:37 +0000 RoseandJoan 97044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh San, your styling is fantastic, you have some beautiful accessories there. I love the slim flower belt and the obi belt. The biker jacket over the pirate blouse looks amazing, you really must wear that look outside of your bathroom! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-97043 Sat, 26 Sep 2009 10:01:21 +0000 Louise 97043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow you look hot!<br /> I love the pirate blouse with the moto jacket but feel the cardi underneath is a bit much.<br /> Love the obi belt x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-97041 Sat, 26 Sep 2009 09:59:53 +0000 rute 97041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>San! I'm impressed! KILLER!<br /> My favorites are no-1 and 3! Love the bigger brown belt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96988 Sat, 26 Sep 2009 03:43:57 +0000 Anonymous 96988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Medusa you are the sweetest, OMG you have made my day.<br /> You know how scary it is to post pictures so I really appreciate your very kind compliments. I am blushing!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96968 Sat, 26 Sep 2009 02:07:47 +0000 medusa 96968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SAN!!!!! I am blown away by the first combination you posted!!!!!! LOVE!!!! After reading the comments, I agree with Maya that it could work better without the belt. But I think that the blouse + cardigan + biker jacket is GREAT! You are so long and lean, you should be a model straight on the Ann Taylor website.</p> <p>OK, I had to go look it up to compare. Here's the AT look: <a href="http://www.anntaylor.com/catalog/outfit.jsp?ensembleId=6506&#038;N=1200036&#038;pCategoryId=3939&#038;categoryId=3519&#038;Ns=CATEGORY_SEQ_3519&#038;loc=LN" rel="nofollow">http://www.anntaylor.com/catal.....038;loc=LN</a><br /> Only you look way better!</p> <p>#3 - blouse + cardigan + belt is great too. I agree that the chunky cardigan is not working so well. I like the white blouse with a belt, but agree that belting higher with the skinny belt would work better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96959 Sat, 26 Sep 2009 01:48:42 +0000 Anonymous 96959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got the obi belt at Nordstrom's Danja. I'm sure this belt would be simple to make.<br /> I am copying the looks from the AT website. That is why I have so many layers on. I would never think to layer a moto jacket over a boyfriend sweater by myself.<br /> It's such a great practice to photograph oneself and post here. I am learning quite alot! I appreciate the feedback. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96958 Sat, 26 Sep 2009 01:45:47 +0000 Anonymous 96958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>San, I want to steal that blue blouse and should go try one if time is ever available. That moto jacket elevates everything. Gorgeous! I actually like the wide belts better on you than the narrow ones with these outfits.<br /> Is the white shirt with black buttons from AT? Love it, but I don't think the belt works with it in the low slung position. The short sleeved cardi isn't the best look.<br /> You have built an enviable wardrobe in the past few months. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96954 Sat, 26 Sep 2009 01:26:41 +0000 Kyle 96954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chunky sweater is not my fave, San. But I LOVE the long grey cardi and belt over the tie neck blouse. Adding the moto jacket takes it to another level. I would not have thought to do it, and you are workin' it, girl. Just fantastic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96940 Sat, 26 Sep 2009 00:30:46 +0000 Danja 96940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>San, I love your outfits with the thinner cardigan and moto jacket. And it loks like that ink blouse will keep on giving you great outfits. I love the tie colar, in fact I am obsessed with those these season. I am not feeling that short sleeved sweater, though. It's good that you are sending it back. The belts are awesome, especially the wrap around floral one. Wow!!! Where did you get it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96934 Sat, 26 Sep 2009 00:21:40 +0000 Jes 96934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That moto jacket is BADASS Love it! And I love your obi, too. </p> <p>You are really working the pirate shirt - very creative ways of styling. I agree that the chunky knit cardi should go - those look great on the hanger, but when I've tried them on, I find that they just add bulk - and in a weird way, at least on me.</p> <p>What kind of camera are you using if you don't mind my asking. I'm on the lookout for a new one.</p> <p>Jes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96929 Sat, 26 Sep 2009 00:08:52 +0000 marianna 96929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am in love with your moto jacket. It's absolute perfection. Mmm. LOVE all of your outfit combos. You look so stylish and hip! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96926 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 23:53:42 +0000 Srujana 96926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>that blue blouse is sooo yummy! i love how it works with so many different things....and that patterned obi belt pops on your white button down. i think the first picture feels like it has a bit too much going on, with all the layers (just my personal opinion though)...but i do think you rock all these looks regardless! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96924 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 23:49:07 +0000 taylor 96924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Me thinks the eyeball...I am sure there are rules, but I don't know them...I will leave that to the skinny belt experts.</p> <p>I like skinny belts with pencil skirts and short cardis (although I never do it with cardis...me eyeballs say...short waist) but your waist is so long and enviable it should work for you...no prob:) Also like skinny belts with jeans </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96921 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 23:40:39 +0000 Anonymous 96921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, the textured sweater is going back! I'm glad to hear the opinion on the skinny belts too. I am new to accessories. I just went out and went on an accessory spree so I really do value your opinions. Thanks Taylor and Maya.<br /> Now for future, can you tell me if there are rules to when a belt should be wide or skinny? Or is it the eyeball test? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96919 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 23:33:14 +0000 taylor 96919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your LONG and LEAN look is beautiful with the boyfriend sweaters and wide belt!!...and I like the moto jacket.....not so crazy about the skinny belts underneath.</p> <p>Yep, I am not feeling that textured sweater on you...even if you size down, this seems to look best on a mannequin. We have about 4 items under this sweater in the store..and I have yet to see it look FABULOUS on anyone...If it doesn't look stellar on you stick to the items that do, you have such a beautiful shape !! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96917 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 23:22:49 +0000 Anonymous 96917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Maya, great observations! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96914 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 23:20:40 +0000 Maya 96914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>San, you look amazing. Honestly.</p> <p>I think the jacket over cardigan over pirate blouse with a belt is a bit too much. I'd lose the belt personally. The jacket gives the outfit enough shape that you don't need it. Without the jacket, the wide belt looks fantastic.</p> <p>I'm not crazy about the cardi with the chunkier knit. Something about the narrowness of the belt and the chunky knit looks odd to me, and I'm not wild about it over the pirate blouse.</p> <p>Love the pirate blouse with the white skinny belt but I wonder if the tie neck makes it too much going on? Maybe a blue belt would tone it down a bit.</p> <p>The obi belt is beautiful. I think the brown hip-slung belt needs a longer top underneath it.</p> <p>I think you're right that the textured cardi isn't working. Taylor was spot on. But I have no doubt you can find something you'll love just as much that looks a lot better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mix-and-match-ann-taylor-moto-and-pirate-looks#post-96902 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 22:50:00 +0000 Anonymous 96902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All of that and some new belts.<br /> <a href="http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll168/1954_2008/100_1079.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i288.photobucket.com/al.....0_1079.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll168/1954_2008/100_1077.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i288.photobucket.com/al.....0_1077.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll168/1954_2008/100_1078.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i288.photobucket.com/al.....0_1078.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll168/1954_2008/100_1065.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i288.photobucket.com/al.....0_1065.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll168/1954_2008/100_1068.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i288.photobucket.com/al.....0_1068.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll168/1954_2008/100_1080.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i288.photobucket.com/al.....0_1080.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll168/1954_2008/100_1081.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i288.photobucket.com/al.....0_1081.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll168/1954_2008/100_1083.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i288.photobucket.com/al.....0_1083.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll168/1954_2008/100_1082.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i288.photobucket.com/al.....0_1082.jpg</a><br /> I've decided that the grey textured cardi is really just too big. I'm not sure if I should bother getting a smaller size, and if I do I think I should get it in black so I could sport the ink blue with black, as Angie posted in her blog.<br /> What do you think of the layers with the moto jacket and blouse and belts?<br /> Thanks. </p>
