So glad you are keeping it. I think it will have closet longevity, despite being so distinctive.&nbsp;</p> <p>Glad you're keeping the reptile print, too. I agree that it somehow has more dimension. I think it will be more versatile for you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off/page/2#post-2005445 Sun, 24 Feb 2019 00:49:30 +0000 Jaime 2005445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, so I still love the Preen dress and with the jacket it is perfect! I am a big zebra print love (bookends my hair ) but in this case, and on you, I prefer the reptile. So basically just agreeing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005437 Sat, 23 Feb 2019 23:55:40 +0000 Gigi 2005437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That outfit is amazing! I love it so much. How awesome that you can match the beautiful blue of the skirt with a bag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005361 Sat, 23 Feb 2019 18:08:31 +0000 Jane 2005361@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the skirt and the outfit.

Stunning. You styled to Preen skirt to perfection. I was not sure that it will work in winter, because it looked very summery to me, but you proved me wrong. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005250 Sat, 23 Feb 2019 12:39:36 +0000 Bijou 2005250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>THE PREEN!!! You look stunningly beautiful in this outfit. To be honest, I would probably buy the black Preen as well instead of the zebra, reptile or horse print skirts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005169 Sat, 23 Feb 2019 01:54:22 +0000 mtnsofthemoon 2005169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looooove the Preen skirt on you.&nbsp; The reptile caught my eye instantly! the Zebra fell flat IMHO.&nbsp; &nbsp;So my vote is the same as Angie and others.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005148 Sat, 23 Feb 2019 00:15:37 +0000 Anonymous 2005148@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK - despite my initial misgivings over the Preen skirt, I eat my words. It's fantastic on you. The other two skirts are no comparison - and I'd not bother with them unless you're really in love with them. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005146 Sat, 23 Feb 2019 00:13:13 +0000 DonnaF 2005146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am usually a sucker for any black'n'white print, but the reptile is head and shoulders better than the zebra -- younger and more modern.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005136 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 23:40:29 +0000 Janet 2005136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Angie! I’m thoroughly enjoying wearing it! I consider this the start of my “so ME” challenge because I really do feel like this outfit is especially me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005133 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 23:29:52 +0000 Angie 2005133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You whacked it out of the ballpark for today's outfit formula,<b> Janet. </b>KILLER to the Power of KILLER. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005115 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 22:27:59 +0000 jill58 2005115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 1 and 3.

That's all the analysis I'm capable of for the moment &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005064 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 20:35:32 +0000 Janet 2005064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Angie, that’s a great observation about the reptile vs zebra! The black in the reptile print is softer, almost a very dark brown, but it seems to blend just fine with all my many black pieces. Thank you for identifying the “depth” (or lack thereof) issue in the prints. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005058 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 20:27:43 +0000 Angie 2005058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hear you on only buying very Summery dresses because that works best for your style and climate.</p> <p>Back to the skirts! I like the reptile better than the zebra too. It has more depth. HIGH FIVE. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005057 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 20:25:12 +0000 Janet 2005057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, here’s winter styling of the Preen, the zebra and the reptile. I will hold off on commenting for the moment, but will say that I’m still loving the Preen. I may cut tags and wear out this afternoon/evening with a black moto jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005051 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 20:15:58 +0000 Gigi 2005051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the reptile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005048 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 20:09:53 +0000 Sal 2005048@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If adding two new the Preen and the reptile. The black and white (horse and zebra) are nice but not as good as your existing wrap skirt - which I love. And you have solid black skirts as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2005018 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 18:24:43 +0000 Janet 2005018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, thanks for spotting the dress for me, but unfortunately not available in my size. The others are nice but I'm sitting on my hands for dresses unless they are casual hot-weather pieces. The Topshop utility dress is very similar to one I have from Anthro/Maeve maybe three years ago -- I love it but wearing season is too short.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2004997 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 17:53:14 +0000 RobinF 2004997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the reptile print better, it seems a little more edgy. Love your wrap skirts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2004996 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 17:50:44 +0000 Angie 2004996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay!</p> <p><b>Janet,</b> I am always on the wearer's side. If the design details bother you - back it goes.&nbsp;</p> <p>And btw, the horse print comes in a dress. Find #1.</p> <p>Also thought you might like the other dresses....as I was browsing :)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2004993 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 17:32:15 +0000 Janet 2004993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know, Angie, I love that horse print, but the details of the cut are not quite right. I want that fabric!&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm in gear right now but will try to take pics of the zebra later today or this weekend.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for the input! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2004990 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 17:27:23 +0000 Angie 2004990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Actually, the '90s skirts you ordered ARE on trend.&nbsp;</p> <p>I want to see the zebra on! It looks fab, and more punchy than the snakeskin. But print preferences are very personal, so if you prefer the reptile - that's the way to go.</p> <p>SOBBING about the horse print..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2004988 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 17:20:46 +0000 Kathie 2004988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm in complete agreement with your thinking, between the zebra, reptile and horse prints. Return the horse- great print, but annoying design details. Keep the reptile, because it's fabulous, edgy, and very you. I'd return the zebra, too. From a distance, it almost looks more abstract paisley/leaf/floral, and not quite unique enough to win a spot in your closet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2004984 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 17:10:19 +0000 Cardiff girl 2004984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the blue preen skirt,it’s such a lovely colour and a little bit unusual.The other one that stands out to me is the hinge skirt but as ever it depends how they look and feel on and what outfits you can create from them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skirt-face-off#post-2004954 Fri, 22 Feb 2019 16:12:25 +0000 Janet 2004954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, I probably have pics of all of the old skirts being worn in outfit photos somewhere, but they're scattered about god knows where. I think I'm keeping all my existing skirts (last year I culled some old ones that I never wear anymore).&nbsp;</p> <p>Or are you just referring to the new ones I've just bought?
