I really like the first top too, but it seems more spring/summer than fall/winter, so I think that is biasing me against it (as my mind is focused on things like wool sweaters, boots, etc. :).</p> <p>PS Thanks for your nice comments on my recent WIW thread (I didn't want to bump it back to the first page, so I thought I'd mention it here). You are *exactly* right about why my pup was wanting my undivided attention: he was stuck to me all weekend because my SO and the kids were out of town! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416767 Tue, 06 Sep 2011 00:33:27 +0000 cjh 416767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My vote is for the plaid tunic and the scarf and you could wear them together! Have fun deciding! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416616 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 17:39:06 +0000 Scarlet 416616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Astrid, good call about the length of shirt 1. I think the model is wearing drop-crotch jeans that make the shirt look shorter on her. I mean, I know I am petite, but wearing non-petite sizes are not THAT off on me.</p> <p>Barbara (NC), what a lovely compliment, thank you!</p> <p>Kellygirl, we have the same vision for the plaid top :o)</p> <p>Lisa, you have really put your finger on my thoughts. I already have a longer sheerish white tunic and I run into this problem in winter. Maybe better to hold out for a blouse conducive to tucking in. The scarf caught my eye and screamed my colors to me, but it is also just darker than what I usually wear. I always wear a lighter or brighter scarf.</p> <p>Anna—you don’t sound too convinced. I am hearing hold out for fabber and fabber :)</p> <p>Angie, hah! I was thinking you would swoop in and clear up the yay’s and nay’s :o) Far be it from me to hold out on anything pronounced killer though. This scarf would go with the brown boots I have my eye on.</p> <p>Hah! Instead of cutting the mustard, I am thinking I need all of this and drop-crotch jeans too. I could never have imagined wanting such a thing, but suddenly it seems like an idea with potential. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416567 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 15:25:33 +0000 goldenpig 416567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The plaid shirt is fab...really sets off the color of your hair. Very pretty...get it! I'm not as keen on the leopard tank, it doesn't show off your figure well. The first shirt and scarf look nice too, but the plaid shirt is a standout! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416560 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 15:20:32 +0000 Angie 416560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am no help here because you look fab in all of it!</p> <p>KILLER scarf. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416530 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 14:03:15 +0000 Queen Mum 416530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>well, my vote goes to the white blouse and the scarf.<br /> I think the leopard or is it a cheetah) is adorable on you, but you say it doesn't feel like you.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416437 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 03:03:53 +0000 rae 416437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My vote goes to plaid tunic and scarf. I don't love the color of the first shirt on you, and the sheerness will likely be a problem. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416415 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 02:14:50 +0000 Lisa 416415@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You must get that plaid tunic, really like this on you for both the color and length/fit. The scarf is ok, but it's not lighting up your face in the photo. I'd like to see a brighter color in it. The white sheer top, a sheer tunic length top would get on my nerves, I prefer my tops wither sheer because they have holes in them (such as crochet) or non sheer. I say pass. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416387 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 01:21:38 +0000 cobaltblue 416387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woo, I love the plaid! And fabulous colors in the scarf. Get those two, I say. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416385 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 01:12:16 +0000 kellygirl 416385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the plaid top in 4 on you. To me, that looks like Scarlet. I could see it under a chunky knit cardigan or under your denim jacket. The scarf is gorgeous too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416338 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 22:58:38 +0000 Barbara 416338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the scarf and the plaid top. </p> <p>Basically, most anything looks great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416324 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 22:06:35 +0000 sarah 416324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The plaid shirt has such perfect colors for you. I like #1, too, and I think you'd wear it a log. The scarf is lovely. Sorry, I guess I'm not helping you reduce your shopping very much. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416271 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 19:20:39 +0000 Lynne 416271@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Khris, the shirt over a cami that tones with your pants to stop grinning, and that fabulous scarf! The others aren't as nice as these two, to my eye? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416252 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 19:03:06 +0000 chewyspaghetti 416252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shirt #1 is great- you have suggestions here about dealing with the sheerness of it that should work. I also think you should get the scarf. The other two pieces can stay there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416238 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 18:38:18 +0000 Marley 416238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the first shirt - I would deal with the sheerness by wearing a dark cami underneath it - that way you avoid the "grinning" issue that Angie talked about a few weeks ago! Also, love the plaid shirt - not so crazy about the next one - not sure why? Love the scarf! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416220 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 18:07:30 +0000 annagybe 416220@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first shirt but not so keen on the sheerness. I think the only contenders are the plaid tunic and the scarf. The leopard shirt looks to be on the cheap side. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416219 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 18:06:50 +0000 Arya 416219@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I particularly like shirt #1. Seeing dark pants under the sheer shirt wouldn't bother me, personally. If it's an annoyance to you, though, then go for shirt #2 (also very fab...I mean, pink and green plaid?!?! Awesome!). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416218 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 18:04:32 +0000 Astrid 416218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would definitely keep the scarf! All jokes aside, I think the scarf looks lovely and has great fall colors that go nicely with your hair and boots.</p> <p>I'm unsure about the white blouse. I think it's the same in the model pics, when you look at the ratio between the blue and the white in the front. I like the way it looks on you, but like you said it seems to be a bit see-through. I would think you would wear mostly darker bottoms in fall, so this is a valid concern.</p> <p>I really like #4. Can you close the remaining buttons? If not I would probably try to size up and see how it looks. </p> <p>I actually like #5 on you! But if you are not feeling it, leave it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416217 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 18:00:37 +0000 Mo 416217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would have trouble with the sheerness of the white shirt over dark bottoms, personally. I think the plaid is perfect on you, though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-shopping-anything-here-look-worthwhile#post-416206 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 17:39:56 +0000 Scarlet 416206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the feeling that this season the trends are really synching with my personal style, and I feel a bit overwhelmed by possibility but limited of budget, so I need to be strategic. </p> <p>Two tops are pulling at my heart-strings. I know I would wear these a lot, but I am giving you the chance to talk me out of them. Perhaps I need to focus myself? On something, I don't know what?</p> <p>(1) Unfortunately there is a lot of fine detail that is hard to photograph well. Anyway, pale blue, mandarin-collar with pin-tucking/ruffle detail, shoulder tailoring detail and gathering in the back. There is blue/white striped tacking in the collar and the cuffs. I am wearing a low-slung belt underneath the shirt which shows through oddly in the photo, in case you are wondering. My concern would be how well can I pull this off over darker bottoms due to the see-through issue.<br /> (2/3) model photos of shirt 1, but maybe a shorter version?<br /> (4) This plaid is pink and green. The colors would work well with my wardrobe. I would wear this over leans or leggings with boots, most likely. Maybe layer a sweater over, or a dress under. Possibly I should size up to accommodate bust and hips, although the shoulders were good. I see a lot of layering possibilities with this top.<br /> (5) Cute, but just not me.<br /> (6) The colors jumped out at me. Like Astrid I am a bit of a scarf-addict.</p> <p>Is there anything here I can't live without or should I hold on tightly to my Euros in search of greater game? </p>
