Let's see the new photos. Maybe. if you are not sure, you keep the skirt and send the jacket back? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83676 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 16:33:47 +0000 cciele 83676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks also to Alecia for putting my reservations on the jacket in words! I definitely would like to see a new photo of the jacket.</p> <p>As far as whether you want to keep the suit: Do you love it? I mean, really love it? If you kind of like it and think you could work with it, I would return it and spend the money on something that really speaks to you. It sounds like you still had a few reservations on the suit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83642 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 13:05:13 +0000 Sihaya 83642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>San - I love the skirt. I'm with Alecia and Anne on the jacket as another odd woman out. For the same reasons that Alecia pointed out. I'm hoping that with the different bra and jacket size - this will be a moot point. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83640 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 12:56:32 +0000 Laura 83640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That skirt gives you amazing curves! I don't think it's a blah suit at all ... and I can imagine someone like Kristen, who goes to an office every day, would get tons of use out of it. But what do you think -- will you wear it enough? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83575 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 00:14:15 +0000 yublocka 83575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Where is the blah? I see no blah!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83544 Sat, 01 Aug 2009 21:16:40 +0000 Anonymous 83544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes Angie, your memory serves you well, the jacket I have at home is a size 4.<br /> So I need to try this on again with the new size and take photos. Also I have a new bra since these pictures were taken.<br /> Thanks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83507 Sat, 01 Aug 2009 15:08:42 +0000 Angie 83507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yooohooo! I have a memory like an elephant. This is not the size of jacket that Sandy purchased. We went up a size in the jacket – to a 4 I think, whereas the jacket in the picture is a 2. Sandy can you check the size of the jacket you have now? </p> <p>The suit looks KILLER. (I saw it in real life). And now with Sandy’s new haircut, incredible bra and specs, it will look even better. However, this was a question mark because of lifestyle needs – that’s all. Does Sandy *really* need a suit? And we all have our budget limits! The jacket looks amazing paired with the new white shirt or burgundy blouse and jeans. The skirt looks fab paired with the biker jacket. </p> <p>Anyway sweetpea, mull over that for a while and let me know if I can be of further help. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83498 Sat, 01 Aug 2009 13:55:39 +0000 Alecia 83498@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy to do it, anne. I also appreciate the validation. Sometimes I feel like my eye must be off when I'm the only one to see something. So glad I'm not crazy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83496 Sat, 01 Aug 2009 13:46:24 +0000 anne 83496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Alecia, thanks for putting into words my reservations about the jacket </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83495 Sat, 01 Aug 2009 13:43:38 +0000 Alecia 83495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm, I'm odd woman out on this one. My issue with the suit has to do with the jacket. I don't like what it is doing to your chest. The empire seam under the breast plus the larger collar contributes to a bit of a droopy look to me. Does that make sense? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83473 Sat, 01 Aug 2009 11:07:41 +0000 Kristen 83473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would kill for that suit, personally. So I'm thinking my opinion on it is a little biased. </p> <p>But it looks terrific on you, and each piece has so much character you will be able to wear the heck out of it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83450 Sat, 01 Aug 2009 05:48:39 +0000 anne 83450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>San I love the dress and the blouse - makes you look very hourglassy and is not at all blah. I agree that something about the jacket is not quite right and that if you did keep it, that a simpler blouse would be better with it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83436 Sat, 01 Aug 2009 04:54:33 +0000 Anonymous 83436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll try to get a picture of both together soon. I'm not sure when I would wear the 2 pieces together. Maybe Angie can tell us something about suits and when and how to wear them. Actually maybe she has already told us and I should do a search on the subject.<br /> Thanks </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83429 Sat, 01 Aug 2009 04:47:07 +0000 cciele 83429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the suit has some wonderful details (ruffles, high-waist skirt with buttons) and it fits you very well! However, something about the way the jacket poofs out a bit on the bottom doesn't sit well with me. How do the jacket and skirt look together? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83428 Sat, 01 Aug 2009 04:43:18 +0000 Anonymous 83428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies.<br /> Angie and I both said to each other that shopping day that I should think about this one for awhile. Sleep on it so to speak, then post it to the forum for opinions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83387 Sat, 01 Aug 2009 01:25:31 +0000 Lee Hovey 83387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with all, Love it! It's so different than anything else, and I think you could wear each piece seperately really well! </p> <p>Just one thought though, when you do wear the whole suit together, I would stick to a simple blouse in a pop color. I think if you bring in any texture, sheen, or embellishment in the blouse too it might be too much. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83384 Sat, 01 Aug 2009 01:02:29 +0000 NCYogini4 83384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE the skirt... the last outfit is darling. It's all great, in my humble opinion. Keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83382 Fri, 31 Jul 2009 23:59:51 +0000 lucylove 83382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fantastic- a keep to all of it. You look so sophisticated in the last outfit especially. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83379 Fri, 31 Jul 2009 23:39:31 +0000 marianna 83379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely fab. I love that skirt and the high waist and buttons make it *so* special. And I think since you bought these items with Angie, you should have zero doubts! Keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83364 Fri, 31 Jul 2009 22:01:14 +0000 Anonymous 83364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry to confuse you. When I bought these things I knew I would be making decisions as time went on which items I really love and which ones are so-so. With the heat wave everything has been setting in the closet and as time goes on, being an emotional rather than rational shopper, I am weeding out the not so goodies. Does that make sense?<br /> I didn't know at the time whether this would make it through the cut after I thought further on it, that is why I am deferring to you all. The whole bunch at one time was overwhelming to me, so I just took them all home to think on it.<br /> Thanks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83361 Fri, 31 Jul 2009 21:19:30 +0000 Louise 83361@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's anything but bla and boring. Each item has lots of great features like the buttons on the skirt which looks like it hugs in all the right places. The jacket has that great under bust seam and the collar looks a fancy shape with the material looking a slightly different texture to the rest of the jacket. I think they would be reallly versatile pieces x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-send-this-suit-back#post-83353 Fri, 31 Jul 2009 20:34:17 +0000 Maya 83353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had the same reaction as Taylor.
