I think the length is fine - your legs look great in them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nicole-2-more-outfits#post-5959 Wed, 07 May 2008 17:31:02 +0000 Patience 5959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nicole, I just wanted to chime in that you look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nicole-2-more-outfits#post-5908 Wed, 07 May 2008 05:28:16 +0000 Angie 5908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shrunken cardis are a super look for you Nicole and that black cardi is simply smashing. </p> <p>I think you’d look good in A-line skirts. But a subtle A-line. More like a tulip skirt. If I find one, I’ll post it for you to see. Glad that we made you feel good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nicole-2-more-outfits#post-5869 Wed, 07 May 2008 02:13:03 +0000 Maya 5869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe they're not too short. It's not enough to really bother me, and no one else seems to have that impression. Could just be the picture. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nicole-2-more-outfits#post-5864 Wed, 07 May 2008 02:00:48 +0000 Nicole 5864@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I forgot to answer you about A-line skirts. </p> <p>I have tried on A line skirts but have yet to find one that looks good on me. They make me look wide, matronly and kind of like Alice from Brady Bunch.</p> <p>Maybe you can guide me as to what to look for in an A line. I think I'll need to look for one with a slight A line. And that seems so similar to all of my straight skirts.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nicole-2-more-outfits#post-5838 Wed, 07 May 2008 00:55:08 +0000 Julia 5838@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nicole you look ten years younger! The second one is my favorite, the black jacket "shrunk" your top half and made you taller and leaner. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nicole-2-more-outfits#post-5832 Wed, 07 May 2008 00:38:16 +0000 Nicole 5832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shiny, sorry I missed your post. The necklace came from Kohls--it was on the clearance rack for like $7. It's actually a long necklace, but it has a clasp, so I can double it up.</p> <p>I will definately try your buttoning technique, and post a picture. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nicole-2-more-outfits#post-5831 Wed, 07 May 2008 00:34:57 +0000 Nicole 5831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you everyone for the really nice comments! You all make me feel so good! I'm glad you all like the coral and yellow because that is totally YLF inspired. Those are two colors I would have never considered. I really like the coral one--any other suggestions on how to wear it?</p> <p>Maya, do you think the walking shorts are too short? I was kind of moving when the camera took the picture. I think they are actual a little bit longer when I'm standing still.</p> <p>Angie, the open cardi is black. I wear it alot and really need to get a fresh one. I like the shrunken cardis on me...not quite cropped but a shorter sleeve and waist point). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nicole-2-more-outfits#post-5826 Wed, 07 May 2008 00:20:38 +0000 shiny 5826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely outfits, great colors for you. I particularly love the necklace with the coral cardi - where did you get that? ;-)</p> <p>Can you try this experiment for me: try only buttoning a few buttons, right below your breasts. Leave one or two at the bottom unbottoned. This is what I tend to do - I think it accentuates the waist best, and then you don't get that line effect either. See if it makes a difference! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nicole-2-more-outfits#post-5822 Tue, 06 May 2008 23:47:05 +0000 Ana 5822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Coral and brown are a really great combination for you. The light lime green at AT would look really great on you as well.</p> <p>By the way, since I can't find that topic you started on the blousy green sleeve shirt from AT--I went there today and looked and it's not every single one. Even the ones where one sleeve was green seemed pretty balanced overall. I would suggest going to AT and finding one in your size that has a nice allover pattern to it. Looking at the shirt in person, I think it would look really nice on you. The sleeves especially would be a good length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nicole-2-more-outfits#post-5821 Tue, 06 May 2008 23:46:15 +0000 Tanya 5821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nicole, I love both of your outfits! The top colors are very flattering, the lengths of the bottoms are great, the layering is very nice. Also great ( low vamp) shoes!<br /> And of course, I think your hair looks amazing! Great job! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nicole-2-more-outfits#post-5819 Tue, 06 May 2008 23:39:11 +0000 Maya 5819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nicole, I love the shoes and necklace, and your hair looks great as always. The sweater looks perfect in every way. I wonder if the shorts are at the right length though. Maybe it's just me, since no one else seems to think so yet, but I think cutting across or just below the knee would look more balanced. It certainly doesn't look bad the way it is though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nicole-2-more-outfits#post-5808 Tue, 06 May 2008 21:36:19 +0000 Becky 5808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nicole, you look great in coral and your shorts are just the right length. I have a pair I made from ankle pants last year (again, before determining PKL -- perfect knee length), and they'll have to have some more chopped off. The skirt is also a great length. I think both outfits look great. I too have had some misgivings about having a longer layer peeking out below -- it seems like I'm placing a huge horizontal stripe right where I don't want it. I echo what Angie said about your hair; both ways look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nicole-2-more-outfits#post-5806 Tue, 06 May 2008 21:31:42 +0000 Angie 5806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You do a better job with your hair than your stylist! LOVE your flippy new do with the heavier fringe and red streaks! 10 out of 10. </p> <p>Your skin looks extra wonderful in coral, yellow and blue! ( or is it black?) Super job on the low vamp shoes and GREAT layering techniques. Both outfits are smashing and you look fab! I really like the second cardi open like that – it’s very flattering. A wonderful outfit and I do not think that the contrasting line is stark. The outfit looks balanced. </p> <p>If you don’t want to layer, try tailored blousy tops that drape. I saw the AT top you asked about and the sleeves aren’t green. It’s an all over print so it depends on which top you buy. It’s yum!</p> <p>Now, do you have A-line skirts? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nicole-2-more-outfits#post-5789 Tue, 06 May 2008 20:24:28 +0000 Nicole 5789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It finally warmed up--so walking shorts and skirts are on the menu.<br /> This is my new coral short sleeved cardi and my new yellow short sleeved square neck sweater. (not together !) Is that sharp line where the yellow meets the black skirt too stark? After seeing that yellow one w/out a cardi, I don't like it as an individual layer. It makes me look HUGE. I didn't take the cardi off, I just took the photo for critiquing purposes.</p> <p>I'm afraid I'm going to tire of having the longer layer tank peeking out at the bottom. I'm wondering if that is all that flattering for me anyway. It seems to be cutting a line across my stomach. God, I'm wide!</p> <p>Ok ladies, let's hear it the good, bad and the ugly!</p> <p><a href="http://s289.photobucket.com/albums/ll230/Nichripar/?action=view&#038;current=coralbrown006.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s289.photobucket.com/al.....own006.jpg</a> </p>
