Another vote for the smaller of the two red tops, looks good semi-tucked too. I don't find the shoes in #5 terrible, I still have pair of capped ballet flats which I enjoy wearing Style Fan on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1341235 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 22:03:48 +0000 Style Fan 1341235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Congratulations on your first WIW!  Actually your first series of WIW!  I agree that the medium top looks best.  I love the jeans and a belt would add a lot to the outfit.  I love the faux tuck.  The other outfits look good.  Ballet flats seem to be a classic.  There are lots in the stores.  If they make you happy then wear them.  texstyle on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1341184 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 21:09:41 +0000 texstyle 1341184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great to see you post!  I agree with the Medium on the deep red blouse, which looks really nice with the semi-tuck!  I also like the last outfit with that vest but agree that maybe different shoes would be more on trend.

I agree with the medium shirt. I like all your looks with my favourite being 2, such a confortable stylish casual look and I loved your tan sandals. I think this is a perfect summer look. Cerinda on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1341072 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 17:17:30 +0000 Cerinda 1341072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great job!  Your #1 is lovely, and conveys a lot of personality.  The repeated lines (scarf, hem, hem) look great.  Your #2 appeals to me, too, probably because its simplicity almost disguises its polish.  And, yes, the medium top. kellygirl on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1340953 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 14:53:44 +0000 kellygirl 1340953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Welcome! You are a quick study. Your outfits are terrific. The colors in 1 are lovely. I really like that curved hem with that skirt. Gorgeous chambray dress--simple and stylish. Great denim outfit too. The medium looks perfect to my eye. YLF! Firecracker (Sharan) on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1340946 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 14:48:48 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1340946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Congratulations on your first WIW! All of these outfits are fab! Love your new bag with your outfit in 1. Your boyfriend jeans are a fantastic fit and look terrific on you. I prefer the medium top on you. It's very flattering with the semi-tuck you're showing and also looks good worn out. The large looks a little long, and I think the slightly oversized look would be harder to style. I guess I didn't get the memo on cap-toe ballet flats, because I have several pairs and still wear them. Yours are really cute with that outfit. ma on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1340944 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 14:46:48 +0000 ma 1340944@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Echoing what others said about medium top. All of these outfits look awesome!! The last is my favorite...so chic! Angie on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1340943 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 14:46:34 +0000 Angie 1340943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Congrats from me too, and welcome. You are doing GREAT.  I prefer the Medium top because it's fluid but not too baggy. A great colour for Fall. Nice jeans and partial tuck too.  The easy frock outfit is #2 is a fab way to dress on a hot day sans a/c. Nicely done.  Anonymous on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1340941 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 14:43:45 +0000 Anonymous 1340941@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Nice easy summer looks - and also prefer the smaller size in the blouse  (at first I though we were looking at the jeans - lol)  .  I really like the look of the vest over the dress and yes, as Neel mentioned, cap toe ballet slippers aren't necessarily trending right now, but they are really a classic in my mind.  Vildy on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1340936 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 14:38:32 +0000 Vildy 1340936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I have a little more cinnamon colored leopard ballet flats with black patent cap toe and heel counter. Don't have the red trim. But I like mine so well I actually duplicated them. cjh on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1340931 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 14:33:33 +0000 cjh 1340931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Sz. Medium top, please. Looks breezy enough and current, while the larger one looks too big and sloppy to my eye. Love the printed scarf in #1, very pretty summer outfit. Last photo: shoes are cute, not "terrible". You look put together and confident. Quietgirl on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1340926 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 14:28:39 +0000 Quietgirl 1340926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Sorry, the sizing on the BR blouse...Medium or Large as indicated on the photos. jackiec on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1340918 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 14:20:23 +0000 jackiec 1340918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Welcome and well done on your first WIWs!! You look great! I'm not sure if the sizing refers to the blouse or the jeans?....I will defer on that. Your last outfit is fun with the red accents Suz on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1340912 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 14:17:01 +0000 Suz 1340912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Congratulations on your first WIW! You are looking good! I love the colours of #1, so soft and pretty and fresh-feeling. That skirt is almost radiant orchid! :)  #2 looks like a perfect, hot day dress. Easy and breezy.  And I love the vest in #5 -- looks good on you. You'll be able to wear it lots of ways into the fall.  I prefer the size of the top in #3. It still has fluidity and grace but does not disguise your lovely figure.  And what a fab colour for fall.  Also, love your jeans in that pic!  Neel on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1340872 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 13:33:36 +0000 Neel 1340872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wait a minute! I thought the tops were two different sizes. No? Deb on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1340870 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 13:31:08 +0000 Deb 1340870@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You are looking seriously good in each of these photos....all of these clothes suit you.....you've done very well. Personally I like the medium more than the large and my only suggestion is perhaps you could add a complimentary belt to the tucked version of the red top. Sara L. on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1340867 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 13:28:01 +0000 Sara L. 1340867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like both outfits!  I would go with the medium of the two red shirts (great shirt, by the way).  I'm no help with #5 because I like the shoes and have similar ones without the red trim that I wear a lot.  Neel on "My first WIW and what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw-and-what-size#post-1340866 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 13:27:33 +0000 Neel 1340866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Congratulations on the first WIW! Always the scariest but the best thing to do! #1 - I love the color scheme of this outfit. The pencil skirt is a beautiful color and the scarf ties the colors in beautifully. The sandals casualize the outfit very well. #2 - I love the blues and whites with brown here. Fantastic summer dress! #3 and #4 - I prefer the medium. The large somehow makes the top look shapeless. It just doesn't seem to be made for fluid/boxy fit. But the medium is beautiful on you both tucked and untucked. #5 - FWIW I still wear my cap toed ballet flats. The style sure is dated, but when it comes to shoes ... Comfort first :). I love how the red bookends with your handbag. And nice pattern mixing too. This is a wee bit maximal for me though (the details on the vest, printed dress, printed shoes). But take that with a grain of salt ....because I am currently craving minimal and fighting with my own outfits!

I have already learned (after being here several months) that the shoes in #5 are terrible! ha. (The vest is my very first Angie pick from Nordstrom.) I posted this particular photo as a baseline for progress made. It was actually taken earliest in this journey. I am interested in serious feedback as I am a beginner! Many thanks to all!
