I will add a disclaimer that I find Hawaiian print overdone. Around me, it is the weekend uniform of many who want a dash of laid back style but aren't really laid back. Hard to describe but nonetheless, I think you can avoid this if you add some funk with the dress. I'm thinking chuncky wood bangles or necklace. I love the idea of tights.</p> <p>The black top is nice. I think it might be a better skirt top because of the length.</p> <p>I'm not sure about the vest. It leaves me kind of unmoved. It's not great but it's certainly not offensive. I'm not sure that's a good thing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinion-on-these-closet-cleaning-items-black#post-59939 Fri, 10 Apr 2009 14:59:54 +0000 Encore 59939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Cricket and Vera44 - I think I am slowing getting the hang of it! At least now I understand a bit better about PPL and texture </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinion-on-these-closet-cleaning-items-black#post-59906 Fri, 10 Apr 2009 11:28:14 +0000 vera44 59906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the black and beige it looks good on ya the last one isn't bad either. and i guess the dress is good for a hot summer days! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinion-on-these-closet-cleaning-items-black#post-59897 Fri, 10 Apr 2009 05:06:52 +0000 Christie 59897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the black and beige ... the pants look like a good fit on you.</p> <p>I never commented on your other threads but wanted to tell you that you have made wonderful adjustments based on comments. I learned by seeing you just slightly change one thing how an outfit improves! The green and purple outfit was very pretty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinion-on-these-closet-cleaning-items-black#post-59873 Fri, 10 Apr 2009 01:43:02 +0000 Encore 59873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am still not sure about the dress - I am not really a leggings person but then it wouldn't hurt to try??</p> <p>The vest is primary used when I run errands - so it is functional. I just wasn't sure if it was too big/boxy..</p> <p>Keeping the top :)</p> <p>Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinion-on-these-closet-cleaning-items-black#post-59871 Fri, 10 Apr 2009 01:17:44 +0000 yublocka 59871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Inge that the dress looks good from the front, but may too roomy on the side view. I'm intrigued by sinead's suggestion of turning it into a tunic - that could be very cool!</p> <p>I like the black top with the beige pants too!</p> <p>The black vest I think still looks too bulky on you. The shirt underneath looks very smart though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinion-on-these-closet-cleaning-items-black#post-59839 Thu, 09 Apr 2009 21:14:29 +0000 sinead 59839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>About the dress- could you try some leggings with it? Seems like with leggings it might work as a super casual summer outfit, but it might need to be shortened. I'll let the leggings experts chime in. </p> <p>I like the black top and cream pants and the vest with belt. You're getting great mileage out of that red belt- I think I like every outfit where you use it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinion-on-these-closet-cleaning-items-black#post-59836 Thu, 09 Apr 2009 20:54:17 +0000 Inge 59836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like how it looks from the front, it lacks a bit of structure in the side view, but then again, that's probably how it's supposed to look. I think this would be lovely and cool on a hot Summer day.</p> <p>Black combined with beige (it looks more like a cream on my screen) is such a lovely classic look. I like your shoes too.</p> <p>Belted vest: I think that works too. Smiling about how you've 'knotted' the belt. Angie will love that!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinion-on-these-closet-cleaning-items-black#post-59788 Thu, 09 Apr 2009 17:02:04 +0000 Encore 59788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are a few items that I am not sure about - appreciate whether you think they are the right fit. </p> <p> All were purchased several seasons ago and the "Hawaii" dress many years ago. I have not included any accessories so the cut/fit can come through better.</p> <p> Thanks!</p> <p><a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3547/3427043682_01d703559c_b.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://farm4.static.flickr.com.....559c_b.jpg</a><br /> this is no quite a Muumuu and I can see the hem is not even - disregard the sandals :)</p> <p><a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3607/3426233771_5db2f278cc_b.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://farm4.static.flickr.com.....78cc_b.jpg</a><br /> same dress but side view - oops bra strap showing!</p> <p><a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3349/3427043394_79995d03ef_b.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://farm4.static.flickr.com.....03ef_b.jpg</a><br /> black and beige</p> <p><a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3333/3426232141_802fc0aeb7_b.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://farm4.static.flickr.com.....aeb7_b.jpg</a><br /> this is a polyester vest that I bought at a golf shop - it is roomy so I added a belt.</p> <p>Thanks in advance! </p>
