You look amazing. But you got the jingle mixed up. That one is for Easy Spirit shoes. Remember the chicks playing basketball in them in the commercial? I'm sure your Rockports are just as comfy. You make everything you put on look luxe and high end. How DO you do it?! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-quite-a-suit#post-1260545 Sun, 25 May 2014 02:15:27 +0000 MsMary 1260545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I could have sworn I posted on this thread!!</p> <p>Anyway, I'm here now and I have to say this look is divine!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-quite-a-suit#post-1260544 Sun, 25 May 2014 02:13:43 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1260544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am in love with the shoes, too.

Your hair looks great. Your outfit looks fantastic. Hilarious about the young managers, I was about to say something like what Angie said.

Rockport pumps that look like a pump and feel like a sneaker? Details??!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-quite-a-suit#post-1259712 Sat, 24 May 2014 00:27:20 +0000 cciele 1259712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look professional but approachable -- a very cool, slouchy/fluid look! And that necklace is really cool -- where is that from? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-quite-a-suit#post-1259710 Sat, 24 May 2014 00:24:34 +0000 Aida 1259710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a great almost-suit, the blacks even look like they match up! I like that the pinstripes are on the trousers versus a pinstriped blazer with plain pants. Much better. Wide leg pants with big cuffs have a soft spot in my heart &lt;3 COOL top, love those sleeves. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-quite-a-suit#post-1259708 Sat, 24 May 2014 00:20:14 +0000 rae 1259708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I never did end up getting that classiques suit... I still love it, but did not want to come off as intimidating since many managers who would interview me right now are younger than me. but here is a suit like outfit made from my striped flared trousers and my tuxedo ish blazer.</p> <p>forgot to get a shot of the shirt by itself so I took one inside during lunch. </p> <p>I'll tell you what, the sales world can be a cruel mistress sometimes. if I did not love the fashion thing, I might be in trouble...lol.</p> <p>wearing a $1 swap meet top, $1 Bebe swap meet parents, and last season's Trouve blazer. New Rockport pumps from Amazon, too! I must add those to the fines when I get home. " looks like a pump, feels like a sneaker." </p>
