				<description>&#060;p&#062;Sorry Angie and Louise - this should be the correct link (I added it in a few posts down from the top, but next time will edit it into my original post - I'm still getting the hang of all of this!)&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Thanks for all of your lovely and encouraging replies - so exciting to have such a positive response to my first pics.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;queenie - great idea to wear the jeans for a day.  I'll try that.  RoseandJoan - yes they are long enough.  They're over-long so should be ok with shrinking after washing but I'm going to double check before I commit.  I have a lot of trousers that are too short so don't want to add to them...&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;cindy594 - I'm going to try the trench again with more layers and also try the next size down to check on the sleeve length.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Thanks for your help - I think they might both be keepers!
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I like them both! I think the back pockets of the jeans are flattering.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Hi Thunalata,&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Congratulations on your first picture post, it can be quite intimidating at first but it such a good instrument for feedback.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I agree with your assessment, you look like a very pretty pair from your photos.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;The coral trench looks wondrous against your skin tone and would seem to work with most neutral coloured bottoms. I would be inclined to keep.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;The jeans look a very good fit and are flattering but I'm unable to decide from your photos if the jeans are quite long enough. If they almost skim the ground then I would again say keep.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Hi Thunalata-&#060;br /&#062;
Welcome to the forum!&#060;br /&#062;
I would agree with Rute that you look pearish, but we'll let Angie have the final say on that ;)&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I love that coral trench on you- beautiful color and beautiful styler for you.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I think the jeans look really nice too.   Do they feel taht they will hold their shape?  I usually wear jeans in my house for a full day before removing the tags.  If they are a saggy mess by the end of the day, back they go.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Hi there.  I can only see the photo with the coral trench.  It is a beautiful color, but the sleeves look a little long to me.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;This is the first time I've tried to post photos and I'd appreciate any feedback (including about how to improve the photos - I've only just signed up to flickr):&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;a href=&#034;http://flickr.com/gp/47357895@N08/R740Tf&#034; rel=&#034;nofollow&#034;&#062;http://flickr.com/gp/47357895@N08/R740Tf&#060;/a&#062;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I don't know what order these will come in, but there are basically:&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;1. Me in pre-YLF jeans - I'm 5'6'', clear spring colouring, with smallish bust and broad-ish shoulders.  I think I'm a short-waisted pear.  Am I?  What is my secondary shape?&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;2. Various shots of me in new jeans.  Keep or return?  I was thinking about buying premium denim but wanted to try these first.  I don't want any more 'make do' clothing, though!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;3. The H&#038;amp;M coral trench Angie blogged about.  Keep or return? I have a tan leather jacket about this length and want to buy a trench.  I was thinking of looking for ivory or navy as a more versatile neutral - is it a mistake to get this? &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I have a lot of things to buy to try to get my wardrobe a bit more as I would like it (since reading this wonderful blog).  I would love any feedback from you ever so stylish ladies!
&#060;/p&#062;
