The tops are also more interesting than T-shirts, and you pulled the look together with belt and necklace.&nbsp;</p> <p>I love your white jeans. You look streamlined and gorgeous in them. &nbsp;Try pairing them with tops that aren't T-shirts or too short button-down shirts. (Yes, the lilac shirt's fit is off as you predicted).</p> <p>Try finishing off #3 with a belt and pearls (chambray shirt with white).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/photo-journal-week-three#post-1673131 Sat, 04 Jun 2016 14:40:15 +0000 Ledonna N. 1673131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These post are awesome. I tend to wear the same pants and differen toppers. The white denim looks great. My favorites are the work looks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/photo-journal-week-three#post-1673120 Sat, 04 Jun 2016 14:10:22 +0000 El Cee 1673120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sterling -- I really like your outfits this week -- all of them work well. And I agree that the high contrast outfits look particularly great on you. You look amazing in the white jeans. [You do not look "fat" in any shot -- I think there is just a subtle difference in the way you are standing and the angle of the photo.] I agree with Diane that the button down in question (6/1) seems to be a good fit and an OK length. I think it would read "too short" if it had a straight hem. But the curved hem (what I call a "smile hem") is flattering on you and the color is, indeed, very pretty. I would lean toward keeping it. And I very much like the chambray shirt as you are wearing it -- semi-tucked with white jeans. I think that is a great summer casual look. I love the new denim pencil skirt you have ordered and will be excited to see how you style it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/photo-journal-week-three#post-1673115 Sat, 04 Jun 2016 14:05:28 +0000 Anonymous 1673115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We can see your feet!<br /> I'm with you on wearing braclets in summer. In colder weather they can be awkward with coat and jacket sleeves. I also like them to add interest to a simple summer outfit when a necklace or scarf seems too hot.<br /> My favorites of your outfits are the ones that show your shoes. I think the buttondowns shown look great. Is the 6/2 outfit enough contrast for your happiness factor? The yellow bag looks fab with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/photo-journal-week-three#post-1673114 Sat, 04 Jun 2016 14:04:58 +0000 Suz 1673114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! Both pair of white jeans look excellent on you.&nbsp;</p> <p>You seem to be making lots of discoveries as you go, as well. I also like the high contrast and remain amazed that you can wear white jeans for cleaning/ errands! Having said that, I was out in the garden in mine a couple of days ago. Once you get hooked on wearing white, it never seems to end! &nbsp;</p> <p>The top in pic 4 might be a bit short for wearing with pants. Could be tucked in to a skirt. But yes, fits have changed some over time. A well tailored shirt is classic but even the classics get tweaked to work with the proportions of newer bottoms.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/photo-journal-week-three#post-1673105 Sat, 04 Jun 2016 13:56:54 +0000 Anonymous 1673105@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is it the rise that makes you think the second white pair makes you 'look fat'? I think you look the same, aka, perfect! :-)</p> <p>The pink shirt does look too short to me. I way prefer the look of the yellow shirt with the rolled sleeves.</p> <p>I also love Saturday's look. The necklace makes a difference.&nbsp;</p> <p>I like the high-contrast black and white too.</p> <p>I really like #5 the best. The button down looks really good on you and the pants are a nice fit. The shoes go well with the ensemble.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/photo-journal-week-three#post-1673102 Sat, 04 Jun 2016 13:47:15 +0000 Anonymous 1673102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think these are a great set of outfits! You look great in white jeans and I think the fits look fine. I actually don't mind the length of the shirt in the middle and I love the colour of it.</p> <p>Re-opaque tees...I heard of this company via Not Dressed as Lamb website : <a rel="nofollow" href="https://yuniont.com/">https://yuniont.com/</a>&nbsp;They specialise in very good quality tees in substantial fabric. Sadly, it doesn't look like they ship to the US, but if you get tempted I could send stuff on to you...</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/photo-journal-week-three#post-1673087 Sat, 04 Jun 2016 13:34:52 +0000 Anonymous 1673087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The weather has warmed up considerably and wearing dark bottoms felt heavy. &nbsp;Hence, the experimentation wth white bottoms (oh, and I also bought a white denim skirt that will arrive late next week). &nbsp;</p> <p>It is a LOT OF WHITE. &nbsp;Since white was spread over weekends and some work, it wasn't too much. &nbsp;</p> <p>Here are my notes: &nbsp;<br />1. Still Prefer High Contrast (signature).<br />2. Do not like or feel fabulous in boxy or straight tops<br />3. Sleeveless tops and tee shirts continue to define summer uniform (signature) <br />4 Opaque white crew neck tee shirts continue to define summer casual uniform (signature). &nbsp;Finding opaque white tee shirts is nearly impossible. &nbsp;These tee shirts were purchased from the Gap in 2010. &nbsp;<br />5. Pearl earrings (signature) <br />6. Bracelets with sleeveless tops (signature). &nbsp;Evidently I only wear bracelets in the summer months. &nbsp;So this is new. &nbsp;<br />7. Belts with silver buckles (signature) <br />8. Toppers just too warm to be of any use.</p> <p>Forum members commented that my button downs <b>may be the wrong size?? &nbsp;</b>This is quite possible. They are OLD. Fashion and bodies change. Are the button downs too short?? Too tight?? &nbsp;Donation? &nbsp;</p> <p>I wore two different pairs of white jeans during the week (early versus late in the week). The jeans worn in later in the week seem to make me “look” fat. &nbsp;I don't see how this can be the case since they are the same size. &nbsp;One pair is a "bit" tighter. &nbsp;I might have been standing differently. &nbsp;</p> <p>Have a great week everyone. &nbsp; </p>
