I get asked from time to time if I'm not tempted to grow it out again, but that's a definite no. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/4#post-1605809 Fri, 22 Jan 2016 23:42:18 +0000 Gigi 1605809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, love the final outfit! That is an amazing skirt. And the earrings are lovely. I am growing my hair out, and although I enjoy my new look, I do miss being able to show off earrings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/4#post-1605755 Fri, 22 Jan 2016 21:15:14 +0000 Astrid 1605755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! I'm glad you all like the earrings. I think wearing them makes it special, they will make me feel as if I'm wearing a brand new outfit. I will probably run some errands tomorrow and might have time to have another look for a replacement top. And I had my hair cut this evening, I always love it when it's short like this... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/4#post-1605698 Fri, 22 Jan 2016 19:12:41 +0000 Gaylene 1605698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are beautiful earrings, Astrid! The size, shape, and colour are perfect. And I love the look of the jacket with your "galaxy floral" skirt. Your outfit is stunning--and totally you!

Your new earrings are so pretty! And your skirt, glad you found it. I sometimes get a surprise when I reach the bottom of the ironing basket, items I've forgotten for Quite Some Time </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/4#post-1605283 Thu, 21 Jan 2016 17:34:29 +0000 Astrid 1605283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Elle!

And I agree, the short hair is perfect for big earrings. The designer actually helped me pick and the first pair she suggested was even bigger, a kind of cluster and climbing up the ears a bit. It looked fierce, unfortunately they were way too expensive for me. But I love these. She had a good eye, I could have bought all of the ones she gave me to try. But I think these are a good size, noticeable but not too big for my features and not too heavy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/4#post-1605195 Thu, 21 Jan 2016 14:44:30 +0000 Sara L. 1605195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the outfit you ended up with.&nbsp; The earrings are very pretty and dramatic with your short hair.&nbsp; I think I usually go for necklaces because it's hard to see earrings through my hair.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/4#post-1605170 Thu, 21 Jan 2016 13:50:57 +0000 Astrid 1605170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Alasse and Viva! I just came back home, haven't found a top yet but I bought myself some glittery earrings. Made in Berlin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/4#post-1605164 Thu, 21 Jan 2016 13:35:46 +0000 viva 1605164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your final outfit. "Galaxy floral" has to be the best name ever for a print. We should all have galaxy floral in our closets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/4#post-1605162 Thu, 21 Jan 2016 13:13:12 +0000 Alassë 1605162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely!

It is funny - I already have a small wardrobe and still don't manage to think of every possible combination. I think I tend to stay in the tracks even in my mind. And with the weather I hadn't worn the skirt for three months or so. </p> <p>Elizabeth, I probably wouldn't try it again. Returns are a bit of a hassle and I'm sure there are other lovely things out there. That skirt had its chance twice now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/4#post-1604973 Thu, 21 Jan 2016 01:26:20 +0000 Elizabeth P 1604973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>But I am sorry the other skirt doesn't work, it was so gorgeous.&nbsp; I hope you'll keep stalking it for the next size down </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/4#post-1604972 Thu, 21 Jan 2016 01:25:52 +0000 Elizabeth P 1604972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my goodness... perfection, right under your nose!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/4#post-1604970 Thu, 21 Jan 2016 01:25:19 +0000 crazyone 1604970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice!

The cami has spaghetti straps and is rather clingy and a bit worse for wear. Definitely only good for layering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/3#post-1604922 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 23:46:20 +0000 Anonymous 1604922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hard to believe you had that perfect skirt in your closet and didn't think of it!<br /> It's great with the jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/3#post-1604921 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 23:44:38 +0000 missvee 1604921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Aida - i think the cami looks very nice here. Is there any reason why you wouldn't wear it? (Of course if it's worn out or pilled then replace it for sure.) This is going to be a super outfit for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/3#post-1604919 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 23:42:45 +0000 unfrumped 1604919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super way to SYC and come up with just the right vibe.<br />Now you can relax and&nbsp;later just &nbsp;keep your eye out for a dress that you might like to add in the future if the right one comes along, without feeling pressured. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/3#post-1604912 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 23:26:05 +0000 DonnaF 1604912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great skirt!!!&nbsp; If you don't find earrings you like, perhaps you could find a brooch since your jacket looks fairly plain? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/3#post-1604909 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 23:18:46 +0000 Aida 1604909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great Astrid! Woot for the galaxy floral making an appearance I do rather like the "daintiness" the camisole is lending the look, so perhaps a more delicate shell is in order here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-special-occasion-outfit/page/3#post-1604905 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 23:17:06 +0000 shaz 1604905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great fab outfit on you </p> <p> </p>
