It's perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning/page/2#post-668236 Sat, 14 Jul 2012 02:29:20 +0000 Kari 668236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una, I love the leather peplum shell and the MK jacket.</p> <p>I'm sorry to hear that the shell is too fussy. I know that heartbreak well... it doesn't LOOK ill fitting or unflattering at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning/page/2#post-668230 Sat, 14 Jul 2012 02:24:55 +0000 Heather 668230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I WANT THAT LEATHER PEPLUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p> <p>Please be available when the sale goes public! *crossing fingers*</p> <p>LOVE your MK jacket. One can never have too many shoes, handbags or jackets. Fact. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning/page/2#post-668223 Sat, 14 Jul 2012 02:19:49 +0000 Angie 668223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una and Mary, that skirt in *all* it's fabric incarnations is not going to pass my style filter on anyone but a youngster. If ever there was a too young look (which I don't say often at all) - this skirt is it. The photo does not give the correct impression of the skirt. </p> <p>Sorry to be mare :(. I feel very strongly about this skirt being a no. </p> <p>:( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning/page/2#post-668062 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 23:23:39 +0000 Echo 668062@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The leather top is FANTASTIC - just gorgeous. I do think a regular size instead of a petite would help with the tugging issue, though. Definitely a keeper. And the MK jacket is equally gorgeous, and I love it paired with the leather top! What great finds! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-668061 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 23:22:39 +0000 Jonesy 668061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the leather top, but it's kind of hard to get a sense of the fit with the way the light is shining on it. I wondered about this top for myself, but then I was completely stymied by the upkeep. I would only wear it with a jacket over it, so then wouldn't one sweat in it and need to have it cleaned all of the time? I'm just not sure that leather and my armpits are a good mix :).</p> <p>I love the jacket--I agree that one cannot have too many. I have two and am actively seeking a third! </p> <p>I like the skirt but it seems more like a summer item to me. I can see it with bare legs and your new flat Frye boots, but not sure about with tights in the colder months--e.g., what color of tights would work? I think black would be too harsh.</p> <p>Just my rambling two cents, of course! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-668055 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 23:16:03 +0000 Beth 668055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had to go back and look again as I didn't even notice your bust at first glance (which is good, right?)</p> <p>On second glance, I still don't see boobalicious-ness. And you know I'm sensitive to that:)</p> <p>I just see sleek fabulousness! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667918 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 20:11:39 +0000 fern 667918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More love here for the UWP leather top. If you will wear it, it's fantastic. Hourglassy - not top heavy. I want to see you lawyer it up.<br /> Also loving #5 - now that is a flattering hoodie!<br /> Nice work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667884 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 19:30:19 +0000 Transcona Shannon 667884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE the leather top and LOVE the MK jacket! You look amazing in that leather top Una! Not boob-a-licious at all. That is a fantastic UWP piece, if ever I saw one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667883 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 19:29:28 +0000 rachylou 667883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the MK jacket.</p> <p>Do not, I'm afraid, love the leather peplum. I feel it shortens you visually, in the torso. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667877 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 19:08:40 +0000 catgirl 667877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>interesting, Janet. My problem is that the bottom part rides up - not sure if my boobs are making it pull or if my torso is longer than I think. All these fit issues STILL confuse me!</p> <p>So do you feel (honestly!) that it is not too boob-alicous on me? That is always my big hang-up with more fitted items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667871 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 19:01:54 +0000 Janet 667871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una, maybe you and I should have traded tops! I am having my leather top altered because it is too long from bust to shoulder (I have that problem a lot). Mine is a Medium. I wonder if I could have worn it in a petite considering how short-torsoed I am. I wear a small in Equipment -- I could almost do an XS except then they wouldn't fit around my hips. </p> <p>It's funny, I actually thought the top sort of de-emphasized my boobs a little, which is weird for a high-necked top. Maybe the peplum helps to balance things a little. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667862 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 18:53:23 +0000 catgirl 667862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, love for the leather tank! I am STUNNED - I look at it and all I see is BOOBS! But I could adjust my attitude, if the fit were not bothering me. I mean, it is so UWP...</p> <p> Maybe I will see if they have a regular M when I go in to return and exchange the other items. Sizing is so strange - I'm an XS in Equipment and a M in this? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667787 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 17:05:13 +0000 Mo 667787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that leather top!! I'd always figured such an item would be too harsh or bikerish but this is wonderful on you. Too bad you have to keep tugging it - it looks great. Hmm, maybe I will consider it. I'm short waisted anyways lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667772 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 16:56:21 +0000 Beth 667772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think by going for a regular size in the leather tank you might gain just enough length in the torso that it won't ride up.</p> <p>It's so fab, I think it's worth a try! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667766 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 16:48:51 +0000 catgirl 667766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, ladies!</p> <p>Angie, I got the jacquard skirt from Hinge. It's a heavy jacquard in a light grey. It is not the pleather that I saw which was stiff and not very nice. Does that change your opinion?</p> <p>Yay on the MK jacket - I LOVE it.</p> <p>Keep the leather tank? Should I size up to keep it from riding up? Or will it stretch? This is a PM. I'm thinking I might need a regular M. </p> <p>I may size down on the Zella jacket too.</p> <p>Not much for me, but I know you all are finding lots! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667736 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 16:24:27 +0000 MsMary 667736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Uh, I love the skirt and just ordreed one for myself. Angie, it comes in pleatherette and jacquard and Una's is the jacquard.</p> <p>As for the jacket, we lady lawyers ALWAYS need a black jacket and that one is to. die. for.</p> <p>And, uh, what size is that leather top? If you're not keeping it, might you consider selling it to me? It's sold out online in all sizes except XS and L. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667718 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 16:10:54 +0000 Beth 667718@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the MK jacket. I also love the leather top: it looks so "Una" and it's very flattering. But if it's going to be annoying to wear then I'd return it.</p> <p>Agree that the cardi needs to go back. The skirt feels short to me:/ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667696 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 15:53:50 +0000 Anonymous 667696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great picks!! I agree with Angie on the sweater and skirt...but love everything else.</p> <p>That black blazer is unique and looks absolutely incredible on you. I think it would look great worn casually or with edgy workwear ensembles. I think it's impossible to have too many blazers I have 3 navy ones in different styles and wear them all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667589 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 15:09:09 +0000 Angie 667589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE the leather top!</p> <p>LOVE the MK jacket!!! WOW. </p> <p>Return the cardigan. The yarn is too gauzy. I had it on several clients and it's not so fab. </p> <p>I 100% vote return the skirt. I know it well. It does not fall nicely, drape or move when you stride. It's pleatherette. Just too "cheerleader" and juvenile, Una. </p> <p>FWIW! That's my opinon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667563 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 14:45:28 +0000 kellygirl 667563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the sophistication and polish of the MK jacket. I don't know your black jackets that well but the only one I can remember is the Frenchi tuxedo and the Gibson knit riding jacket. Those seem to fill different needs. I think the skirt is cute but it doesn't look UWP to me. Perhaps its the color that throws me off. It has kind of a girlish vibe.... Just my 2 cents. The leather topper is to die for fab on you. I'm totally weeping that it doesn't fit right. That is SO you!</p> <p>LOVE the gear jacket. What size did you get. That's one thing I could really use. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667535 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 13:52:04 +0000 modgrl 667535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You sure the leather top is not working for you? I think it looks very fab in the picture.<br /> I am tempted! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667530 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 13:41:18 +0000 rae 667530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the leather top is *very* flattering, but I hear you on the tugging. Back it goes. :T</p> <p>I like the MK jacket, but I don't love it to the point that it needs to compete with your other black blazer that is so so perfect for you. </p> <p>I do like the skirt a lot and think it's a great one to wear with untucked tops - instant drop-waist dress effect!</p> <p>LOVE that gear jacket. Love love love... rare that gear outshines all the fashion, but it does for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667529 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 13:40:57 +0000 Janet 667529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sad the top isn't working for you because I think it looks great on you! </p> <p>I didn't give that skirt a second glance in the store (too short and full for me), but I think it looks great on you! I can see you edging it up with black leather jacket and boots. I like the MK jacket if you don't feel like its redundant in your closet. </p> <p>The cardigan? Yeah, not my favorite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667507 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 13:04:14 +0000 ironkurtin 667507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That leather top is to die for. Stinks that it's annoying to wear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667486 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 12:32:32 +0000 Lisa 667486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both the skirt and the MK jacket. The striped cardigan may not have worked out but that yellow color is super nice on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667482 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 12:19:16 +0000 Anonymous 667482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm wondering if you need a round two? </p> <p>Una, I tried on the yellow Rachel Roy blouse and I burst out laughing, it looked so awful on me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667478 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 12:12:27 +0000 Deborah 667478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the MK jacket and if it is different enough to your other black jackets I would keep. I would like to see the skirt styled as I can't picture how you might wear it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-what-i-got-and-am-returning#post-667463 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 11:12:31 +0000 Sunita 667463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I too love the leather peplum top the most, though I also like the Zella hoodie on you. I'm undecided on the skirt...wish it were a bit longer. </p> <p>I passed on a black jacket because I have others, but given that I still thinking about it, maybe I need to reconsider that decision! </p>
