Mine has to be leggings and tunic tops, never thought I would wear this combo again since "been there, done that" 20 years ago. But one thing I've learnt from YLF is never say never! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801429 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 23:59:49 +0000 Angie 801429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There you go! Good for you! You semi-tuck with the best of them, Diana :)</p> <p>I full-tuck and faux-semi-tuck. I don't semi-tuck authentically because it feels so desperately wrong for my style. But I love the way the gals on this forum semi-tuck. It looks so right! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801419 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 23:30:15 +0000 JulieJohn 801419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>PPL - which means a bit longer hemline on my pants lengthens my short legs and makes me feel much more balanced. Also belts, skirts, and I can't wait for the next adventures. Thank you, YLF and Angie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801403 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 22:52:17 +0000 rae 801403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AMEN! Absolutely love the semi-tuck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801387 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 21:38:24 +0000 Anonymous 801387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Asymmetrical hems on tops and Nordstrom Rack which opened here about a year ago.<br /> I still need to figure out the semi tuck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801383 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 21:21:30 +0000 Caro in Oz 801383@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF - hands down, no contest, cinch, pushover, snap, breeze, duck soup.<br /> You get my drift......... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801375 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 21:10:35 +0000 Amy 801375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Me too, Kristin, lol :)</p> <p>RunnerChick--that's wonderful!</p> <p>After looking at some of my outfit photos, during the past year, I've decided the least successful usually involve tucking of tops into pants when the tops and pants are high contrast (short upper torso + long legs). If I want to tuck, I should stick to low contract items.</p> <p>hahaha...I meant low contrast, not low contract (work intrudes) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801355 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 20:23:54 +0000 RunnerChick 801355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>...is discovering that I, too, can be fashionable and feel fabulous. I'm late to the tucking-jeans-into-skinnies party, but that. combined with the longer tunic top has been another great find of 2012. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801350 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 20:14:24 +0000 Kristin SF 801350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's easy for me.</p> <p>1.

I also found tucking and belting with skirts makes all the too long tops not too long anymore </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801328 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 19:10:25 +0000 Anonymous 801328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My ephiphany is...<br /> I like coats and boots and will have zero restraint in buying and collecting them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801324 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 19:02:08 +0000 Suz 801324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well...you know what I'm going to say, don't you? </p> <p>TAUPE! </p> <p>Seriously, though, I love a good semi-tuck (or faux semi-tuck) myself. Also loving trousers. </p> <p>And maybe my biggest discovery is that it is okay to spend a bit of money on something that is going to move me in the right direction. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801289 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 18:04:50 +0000 amiable 801289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with you on the semi-tuck. and for me, skinny jeans (and trousers)! And belts. And, well, just about everything that I've learned from you all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801285 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 17:58:14 +0000 texstyle 801285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was a naysayer at first but I saw the light and I'm with Diana on this one - the semi-tuck or "fake" tuck has been a discovery I've used this year a LOT and it works really well with my jeans/slouchy tees and wide belts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801278 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 17:47:43 +0000 Lisa 801278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Skinnies tucked into booties instead of taller boots. I see more of my leg and since I'm short, more exposed leg makes me (hopefully) look taller. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801263 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 17:37:34 +0000 Transcona Shannon 801263@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And you wear it so well too!</p> <p>I agree that the semi tuck has been quite a revelation to me. I think my best discovery is that I can wear trousers just as well as I can wear skirts/dresses. And right now Angie is sitting somewhere saying "I told you so" - lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-best-fashion-discovery-of-2012#post-801258 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 17:34:10 +0000 Diana 801258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>is the semi-tuck!<br /> Seriously, it's perfect. It allows me to wear all sorts of previously off-limit tops with my slouchier bottoms, lets me show off my cool belts, hides my short waistedness, and gives a tucked look while still hiding my muffin top from the world.</p> <p>What's your best discovery this year? </p>
