But it doesn't crease on wearing at all that I could tell, which is very nice. It is lined.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/something-old-something-new-nothing-borrowed-everything-blue/page/2#post-2000526 Sat, 09 Feb 2019 16:16:40 +0000 Jane 2000526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, this looks really super. </p> <p>I have looked at the skirt a couple of times. \i like the waist detailing.

I have that same sweater and was thinking of taking it to consignment as it's a little larger on me than it was when I bought it, so haven't been wearing much. But now &nbsp;... maybe I should stay with it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/something-old-something-new-nothing-borrowed-everything-blue/page/2#post-2000247 Fri, 08 Feb 2019 19:26:58 +0000 Jenni NZ 2000247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks awesome!

You know, I really <b>am</b> a bit short waisted and this skirt does emphasize the fact, but somehow the length helps to mitigate or soften that effect or simply make it a non-issue. I guess my figure loves the leg lengthening so much that other factors don't weigh as heavily. I did wear this style well in the 80s.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Karen</b>, I wish I had the magic answer about cashmere quality. The sad truth is, that while sometimes you get what you pay for, sometimes you don't! And it can be awfully difficult to tell in advance. Newer cashmere seems nothing compared to the old stuff. I have a sweater of DH's that is literally more than 40 years old and still fantastic. It's very heavy and hot, however.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks, <b>Vicki.</b> Haven't changed the makeup routine at all -- it is probably a combo of the colours and the light making it look that way.&nbsp;<br />I literally wear the same colours and same products for YEARS. I have zero interest in makeup except for creating a bit more definition and polish so once I find something I like, I stick with it until they stop producing it.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Cardiff Girl </b>-- I am wearing my regular size. Didn't need to go up. The sweater is not super thick but is of course thicker than a shirt or tee.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Lisa P </b>-- there's a slit in the back of the skirt so I can walk.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Angie</b> -- yes, I plan to wear the skirt cross seasonally so different footwear can come into play. Some options... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/something-old-something-new-nothing-borrowed-everything-blue/page/2#post-2000194 Fri, 08 Feb 2019 17:17:50 +0000 karen13 2000194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your look fab in this. Gorgeous colors. I continue to adore that sweater and am always happy to see it! I’ve been on a cashmere kick recently (it is a “comfort food” for my closet in a tumultuous world) so I’m very interested in learning about quality. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/something-old-something-new-nothing-borrowed-everything-blue/page/2#post-2000192 Fri, 08 Feb 2019 17:15:44 +0000 JAileen 2000192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love the sweater, and the outfit looks great.

Lots of fun top options for the skirt. Silver top &amp; silver boots? I like the floral top idea a lot.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/something-old-something-new-nothing-borrowed-everything-blue#post-2000114 Fri, 08 Feb 2019 14:41:18 +0000 Anonymous 2000114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've always loved that sweater on you, and remember when it first hit YLF. &nbsp;I have the one Joy showed up-post. &nbsp;Anyways , blues are certainly your colour, and this skirt is a fun addition to your closet.&nbsp;</p> <p>At first it struck me as overly high waisted, but when I went back to look again &nbsp;- it's not. The length mitigates any of that look. Funny trick of the eye..... Is it comfortable to walk in ? &nbsp;</p> <p>I bet it will be great to wear in VCR spring weather too . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/something-old-something-new-nothing-borrowed-everything-blue#post-2000104 Fri, 08 Feb 2019 14:16:52 +0000 Murph11 2000104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect in every way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/something-old-something-new-nothing-borrowed-everything-blue#post-2000103 Fri, 08 Feb 2019 14:16:03 +0000 Bennett 2000103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So jealous!
