I am VERY tempted :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition/page/2#post-398180 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 02:54:37 +0000 Heather 398180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah, your style has changed SO much since winter. You have explored color and even acquired a bag! I love all of your threads. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition/page/2#post-398173 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 02:50:31 +0000 sarah 398173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*waving at my cape twin Lisa*!</p> <p>Aida, you are SOOO perceptive - when I saw that top, I immediately thought, aahh...those are my old colors...that looks SO comfortable to me (not in terms of fit, but in terms of "personality")! Maybe I'm ready to embrace my inner earthiness a bit now that I'm feeling more confident about my style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition/page/2#post-398079 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 01:14:17 +0000 Lisa 398079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#10 is my favorite of the group and I just picked that one up myself. Cape twins! I am so going to copy your outfit in #10. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-398053 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 00:43:07 +0000 Aida 398053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah I've noticed that you are earthy-at-heart, but so many of the items and outfits I see you wear have a definite urban edge. This is why I pointed it out, not saying it is a bad thing or that it doesn't work for you In fact, I really like those soft mossy colors on you. Just wanted to let you know what I saw so you can asses how it would work with your style ^^ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-398008 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 23:43:12 +0000 sarah 398008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Aida, LOL - I am an earthy girl at heart - I don't own a stitch of make-up or a single pair of pumps and have spent months of my life in remote places living in weathered carhartts...that's probably the reason I'm drawn to that shirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397989 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 22:37:33 +0000 lynn 397989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's so funny that you think this doesn't work on you...I think you look fantastic! My favorite is the last one and I was proud that I recognized the bookending! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397959 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 22:06:09 +0000 Aida 397959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the cape on you! Both tops fit nicely. I like top 1 a lot, but top 2 strikes me as a bit earthier than what I'm seeing from you these days. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397849 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 19:33:42 +0000 sarah 397849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Heather - I will definitely mess around with belting these over pencil skirts, etc.!</p> <p>@cjh - yes, I think I'll try rolling those sleeves a big to see if that makes a difference. It's something I noticed, too.</p> <p>@Lynne - since this top is from juniors, I thought it would run small, but it's HUGE! I started out with a M, since that's supposed to be 2-4, and it was gigantic on me, so I went with the S, and I'm definitely not a 00-0! So, I don't think that the sizing is as limited as it appears. I think I may have to shop juniors at Nordstrom's more often : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397808 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 18:43:51 +0000 Lynne 397808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all of these on you, Sarah, including the first. And the cape is WOW. It looks fantastic on you, I prefer the length as you have it than where it sits on the model. Especially with the blue denim. The size range seems limitted - the L is a US 6-8 according to the product info? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397732 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 17:29:12 +0000 Suz 397732@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like these, especially #3 and the cape. I'm right with Angie on #10 being a KILLER look for you. So I would say keep the first top and the third, and if you can afford to keep the Pleione as well, they sure- go for it. </p> <p>I wonder with these tops if part of the difference in seeing it on oneself (in the mirror, in a photo) vs. seeing it on someone else is that on someone else, you see the garment's MOVEMENT, the sort of "waftiness" that prevents it from overwhelming and gives it a large part of its appeal? It's really hard to reproduce that yourself when you are standing still to look at yourself or take a pic, so that might influence your feelings about the piece. In real life, I am certain that these look smashing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397674 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 16:05:57 +0000 Kappy 397674@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm just jumping on the bandwagon here, but I think they all look great on you. And if you think #1-#4 isn't "doing you any favors from the side" then you are clearly not seeing what I see. I think it looks perfect! I can see why you were drawn to the colors in #5-#6, because they are lovely. The color in #7-#10 is very nice and it's a fun cut too. Looks to me like you found three great additions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397663 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 15:53:56 +0000 cjh 397663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These tops look nice. Of course we all look at things with a different eye, but I prefer the white print top with the dark jeans.</p> <p>I LOVE the green print. The thing that would hold me back from it is perhaps something awkward about the sleeve lenght/cuff thing going on? Maybe that's what throws it off for some people. But the pattern and color are so pretty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397648 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 15:37:51 +0000 Heather 397648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah, the Frenchi cape is awesome on you. Definitely keep and layer and have fun with that beauty!</p> <p>The billowy tops are so lovely, too. Try them with the half tuck and a fun belt, too. I like them very much untucked, also. Great pieces for vests when the temps get chillier. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397646 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 15:32:49 +0000 Anonymous 397646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That cape looks like it was MADE for you! Such a lovely color on you too!</p> <p>Also loving the green blouse...is that a peacock print? So cute! The white pants look a smidge wide for those boots, so I might try a slimmer leg pant or a different shoe/boot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397570 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 13:44:07 +0000 bj1111 397570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love love love #10. i adore the green blouse, but not too keen on the boots. maybe sandals to lighten up the whole outfit? or wear the pants over the boots? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397566 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 13:37:47 +0000 Jonesy 397566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I looove the last one and really like the first one! I am ambivalent about the second one, but not sure why...Maybe worn with dark denim? Maybe it seems more fall-y to me? Can't quite put my finger on it...But overall, you can totally wear these shapes--you look fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397553 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 12:43:25 +0000 crwilson 397553@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like billowy tops too, but I have the same reservations that you do. For what it's worth, I love the first blouse and the cape, especially styled with the skinnies. I don't love the Olivia Moon one as much, but I think that may be my personal aversion to olive-y greens and not an objective view. When the top is voluminous, I tend to like it better with pretty fitted bottoms. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397550 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 12:22:03 +0000 nancylee 397550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look great. My absolute favorite is the Olivia Moon...if you had to pick only one, I'd go for that one hands-down! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397475 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 04:17:07 +0000 taylor 397475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them all because to be bilowey i think they must have enough length and these .look super </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397464 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 03:36:01 +0000 christy 397464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah, I was the same way about unstructured tops - loved them on others, not so much on me. I think it takes some time to get used to it. If it helps any, I think you look terrific in this style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397450 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 02:56:12 +0000 MsMary 397450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Loving the whole slouchy comfy look on you, Sarah! The navy one is my fave! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397443 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 02:47:35 +0000 sarah 397443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL, Sveta - yes, because I have blond hair, I have to bookend black boots, leggings, or pants with black somewhere up top - in this case, it's the cami. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397438 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 02:43:21 +0000 Sveta 397438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, I confess I am clueless...what is the bookending in #10? Is it black boots and tank or something I am missing altogether?:-(<br /> I like unstructured blouses on you, Sarah, no "overwhelming" in my book! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397434 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 02:38:15 +0000 Deborah 397434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah I love the first and third tops on you. They look GREAT. The second one, the Olivia Moon, isn't working for me I think because of the white pants.. im not sure. The colours are gorgeous and i think they should work for you, however I would like to see a darker bottom, maybe a denim or even a black. Thanks for posting, I love your WIW:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397432 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 02:37:22 +0000 sarah 397432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone.</p> <p>Tee-hee, Angie, I was rather proud of my book-ending in #10 when I put that one together, especially since I didn't even know what that meant 6 months ago ; ).</p> <p>I'm glad these are getting the thumbs up, because they're such comfortable outfits. I can imagine the ones with skinnies as my weekend go-to outfits all fall and winter... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397422 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 02:24:49 +0000 kellygirl 397422@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the voluminous look on you, sarah! What fab blouses. I think the Frenchi is my fave followed closely by the Pleione but I think all will serve you well. I vote a big, fat KEEP! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397417 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 02:21:49 +0000 Anonymous 397417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd give the Pleione a 10 as styled with the jeans and boots (3/4) and 7-10, especially 9/10, is also fabulous. I'm not as excited about the Olivia Moon, although it's still a good look on you. I'd like to see it with the jeans in 7/8. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397412 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 02:18:13 +0000 Angie 397412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my goodness how fun! I LOVE the cape! Outfit #10 is KILLER. I like it with the bootcuts too, but the bookending in #10 is *perfect*.</p> <p>You look fab in the blouses as well. Very nice combinations. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-keep-or-return-the-unstructured-top-edition#post-397411 Thu, 04 Aug 2011 02:17:36 +0000 Debora 397411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all three on you, Sarah. I'm a big fan of you in billowy tops. They are flattering from both the front and side views. I say keep! </p>
