The AT boyfriend cashmere is tempting me but the fit means a top that I can't fill out except at my apple waist...not a good look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/report-on-some-recent-trys#post-1383252 Sat, 25 Oct 2014 13:56:07 +0000 unfrumped 1383252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks,Suz! I have to be careful because I'll buy collared shirts and blouses-- there's this magnetic pull- and then not wear them. It's because I have fewer tucking outfits and don't wear the untucked look at work. But a shirt capsule of a few colors and prints are useful, especially for layering in winter. Am going to do 1 in 1 out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/report-on-some-recent-trys#post-1382861 Fri, 24 Oct 2014 21:49:24 +0000 Suz 1382861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, that dress is a beauty -- so sorry it didn't work for you. But I really like the items you are keeping, especially the shirt.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/report-on-some-recent-trys#post-1382803 Fri, 24 Oct 2014 20:00:32 +0000 CocoLion 1382803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am on the hunt for a new dress. &nbsp;I have also eyed that dress but will look elsewhere as I don't think it will flatter my hips either. &nbsp;In fact, this is good information about that style of dress in general. &nbsp;So thanks for the reviews. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/report-on-some-recent-trys#post-1382783 Fri, 24 Oct 2014 19:36:29 +0000 unfrumped 1382783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kiwigal, some fabber just has to get it.</p> <p>Also shown in find: AT deer print silk camp shirt.&nbsp;This is&nbsp;item I decided to keep due to the way the tones read almost pinky-off-white/gray even though it's a black and ivory print. I like &nbsp;the playful deer print that isn't too obvious until you get close. I have worn tucked into high-waisted pants and will layer under winter sweaters. Fall = deer, and winter = reindeer! Maybe it is too impulsive, but I hope to have fun with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/report-on-some-recent-trys#post-1382740 Fri, 24 Oct 2014 18:15:41 +0000 Sal 1382740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that dress unfrumped! But with curvy hips it may mot be for me either! And shipping too hard.</p> <p>1 out of 3 isn't too bad! The great tee will be super useful, a great essential. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/report-on-some-recent-trys#post-1382625 Fri, 24 Oct 2014 15:29:04 +0000 unfrumped 1382625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No pics of me but I put in the Finds:</p> <p>AT cashmere BF sweater--this felt very nice, substantial knit, cozy . But it did not work for me due to shape. It's banded-bottom and tapers from shoulder to bottom and then nips in more at the welt. In the size S the top area is too big, but the band is&nbsp;fitted on me, &nbsp;&nbsp;and the knit sags onto it. From the photo I could see it tapered some, but it looked like it might flow over hip area, which it does not, on me. I think it would be fab on more rectangle or apple shapes; new color, light teal appeared online after I ordered the mocha; would've been interested if it had fit.</p> <p>AT knit gray longsleeve T: Keeping. Nice rayon drape, &nbsp;nice curved&nbsp; hem. Works for me as an essential, substrate for scarf or jewelry, layers under jackets, can wear with jeans or work pants, untucked for the curve, tucked into skirts . I sized for fluid but not baggy fit, not as fitted as shown on model.</p> <p>Tracy Reese dress: I had already ordered this while noodling on gala wear, not with high hopes, burt couldn't resist. It is a gorgeous dress, lovely material. Alas, it is too narrow in the skirt for me and I'm too hippy for its fit and for the stretchy-ness of it. Wish I could transplant the bodice onto another skirt. The print is lovely and although it's a "statement", it's not overwhelming.<br />Somebody needs to get this dress! </p>
