They both look pretty easy to wear.&nbsp;<br />P.S. The green color of the peplum that didn't work out was really really pretty on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447442 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 20:23:48 +0000 Alassë 1447442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>2 and 3 look great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447441 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 20:21:51 +0000 Gigi 1447441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both 2 and 3. I think it depends a bit on your style as to which would be better (if you can buy only one). 3 seems very fun, while 2 is more modern with a bit of edge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447333 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 18:14:52 +0000 Momo 1447333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love 2 and 3! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447332 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 18:11:36 +0000 Dee 1447332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 3 best, followed by 2. My thought is both of these look like statement pieces though. Which is in no way a bad thing, but might depend on your comfort level for re-wearing/remixing them if they become a core part of your professional wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447261 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 16:40:16 +0000 Suz 1447261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with the others. I wasn't crazy about the striped skirt before, but paired with the sweater, it's lovely. Do you have other ways of wearing it? &nbsp;I have the similar Halogen skirt and don't wear it often because I am not working in an office, but I love it when I do wear it. Such a fun change.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447248 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 16:25:23 +0000 K.M. 1447248@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are all great, but if I had to vote for just one, I would vote for # 3. It looks really special to my eyes, but I also find it potentially more versatile than the other two because the print is more neutral. And while I can see the point about it being a statement skirt depending on how you style it, I would actually find it the easiest of the bunch to work into an outfit and I can imagine many ways of dressing it up and down. </p> <p>Second favorite is # 2. Number # 1 is nice, but there's something about the fabric--is it a fold? A change in the pattern?--that I can't quite make out on the picture.</p> <p>I hope you get the striped one and then post some outfits here later! It really is a special piece. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447243 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 16:19:05 +0000 unfrumped 1447243@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love 2 and 3. I agree 3 is statement but then actually some of the others are notable, too, and not shrinking neutrals. That may not be a bad thing at all.<br />#3 is a better fit than the other stripe and seems more "you", very stylish but wearable and not overwhelming.<br />One thing about styles like #3, to me they demand better footwear than some other skirt styles--polished and ladylike UNLESS you can pull off the sneaker look and then the sneakers, to me, need to be pristine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447206 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 15:38:19 +0000 AM 1447206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>2 and 3 -- but they are wildly different in my eyes. #2 is "I'm a rock star in my other life"; and #3 is "I'm headed to Paris for the weekend." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447192 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 15:17:11 +0000 Jules 1447192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #3 - but it is a statement skirt. No matter how you style it will be a noticeable focal point.&nbsp;Since you are on a limited budget&nbsp;I'd consider how each piece fits into your wardrobe and how many ways you can wear it. Unless you are looking for a statement for events etc, in which case.... #3 all the way </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447158 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 14:24:26 +0000 Olivegreen 1447158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Number two is a knockout on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447122 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 13:10:35 +0000 anne 1447122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone - so good to get feedback.<br />Diane G - yes I could potentially get 2 skirts (especially if I don't get any trousers - which I think will be the way I'll go - trousers are just so unflattering on me that I doubt I'd get the wear out of them)<br />Ruth M - yes it is a soft knitted material (I am never quite sure exactly what jersey is).&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447094 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 11:23:58 +0000 kkards 1447094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>gosh, i love the way both #2 and #3 look. how nice it is to have 2 great options </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447081 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 10:37:53 +0000 Summer 1447081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote here for 2 and 3. &nbsp;They look really good on you.<br />Good thinking to try on lots of things. &nbsp;It can sharpen your eye to what works and what doesn't. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447080 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 10:33:12 +0000 lyn67 1447080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Anne, I love nr 2 and 3 for work, can't decide, both gorgeous-&nbsp;sorry if no help here:-((. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447073 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 10:18:50 +0000 Staysfit 1447073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the two black and white skirts the best. They seem the most flattering. I'm not sure why the pink floral is less flattering? It could be the angle od photography, but it gives you less shape, and IMO it makes your legs appear shorter. I'm struggling with that because I don't understand why? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447060 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 09:16:05 +0000 Ruth M 1447060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great idea, Anne, to do lots of trying on, to find out what suits you, but without buying yet. (I need to take a leaf out of your book.)</p> <p>You do wear those pencil-with-peplum shapes really well, and I see #2 is your favourite of this batch. Perfect fit. I like #3 as well - the "gentle" box pleats are lovely (wondering if&nbsp;it was&nbsp;a soft jersey knit).</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447058 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 09:07:59 +0000 Astrid 1447058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #2 best, #3 is lovely too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447052 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 08:54:31 +0000 Anonymous 1447052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like 2, and 3. Both&nbsp;give you different silhouettes. Would there be options in your wardrobe to work with a flared skirt as well as a straight one? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447035 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 07:10:14 +0000 anne 1447035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachylou both&nbsp; the first 2 skirts could do with a slight taking in the waist (same with yesterday's) - always the way on my figure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447031 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 07:06:38 +0000 anne 1447031@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Sharon - it does look better than yesterday's, I agree. Perhaps still needs a bit of hemming though.</p> <p>Number 2 was my favourite of this lot </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447030 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 07:06:21 +0000 rachylou 1447030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous skirts, esp the last - nice looking fit. I love the first, but it seems a little big in the waist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447021 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 06:43:08 +0000 Sharon 1447021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ahh, now see, I really like the last skirt on you. The higher fitted waist and the closer fitting top make all the difference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-pics-from-the-change-rooms#post-1447019 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 06:40:40 +0000 anne 1447019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For those who haven't seen my recent series of emails, I am currently doing lots of trying on work clothes at the shops in order to get an idea of which current fashions might suit me<br />Here's a few more from today</p> <p>Sorry about the side views - I changed them on my computer but then they seem to have rotated back again. </p>
