As alaskagirl points out, the tricky part is getting the right fit for both the cropped top and underneath garment so that the layers don't bunch up. Because of this concern, I am also a fan of the "faux layered" garments.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/off-trend-should-i-care#post-1730200 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 16:34:22 +0000 unfrumped 1730200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this question in general.<br /> I don't want to feel weighed down by trend- current worries if I am still liking something a lot. It makes me feel too lemming- oid.<br /> I know I need to keep evolving but don't want to second- guess every second, and especially don't want to toss something fun, flattering and comfortable ( to me, and that I'm still blissfully, ignorantly happy with) just to stay on trend. I'm sure there's a line there somewhere.</p> <p>So I am hoping that Angie's " wide- open " fashion assessment, that there are many more " acceptable " styles on the go now, allows room. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/off-trend-should-i-care#post-1730196 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 16:16:55 +0000 catgirl 1730196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This has always been a favorite look of mine, which is why I love those faux layered sweaters. Getting the right fit for both items is hard, especially for me with a bit of apple weight. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/off-trend-should-i-care#post-1730141 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 14:59:00 +0000 Barbara Diane 1730141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've seen it enough to think it is at least a fringe trend-so if it looks good and makes you happy-go for it! I think people who don't follow trends might take a second look when they see you if it's the first time they've seen this look. I like it in theory but can't see the proportions working for me.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/off-trend-should-i-care#post-1730130 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 14:47:08 +0000 KikiG 1730130@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! The coveted Angie Seal of Approval! &nbsp;Thanks.&nbsp; I'd likely wear it with a woven shirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/off-trend-should-i-care#post-1730115 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 14:20:29 +0000 Angie 1730115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As long as the bottom layer doesn't cling too tightly to the midsection - wear this look with joy. Why not!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/off-trend-should-i-care#post-1730109 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 14:15:37 +0000 KikiG 1730109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't tried this on, but it caught my eye in the store and I'm going back.&nbsp; The cropped sweater over a longer layer, as pictured, is a very figure-flattering look for me, and one that historically has a very high happiness quotient.&nbsp; But, it is current?&nbsp; Does it look forward, or look like old clothes?&nbsp; I would be content to get one winter out of it--having a high-happiness casual piece and wearing it to death works really, really well with me.&nbsp; </p>
