It is called Maxius Beyond Straight. I think it was meant to be used with my flat iron, but even though I have not been straightening, the product helps things stay sleek and not poofy. TylerAnne, it is a very brigjt, greenish yellow in real life. Day Vies, I would love to see your version! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-899070 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 23:33:38 +0000 Mona 899070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh this is a great fashion victory, Rae! I actually had my eyes on this sweater from BR for the longest time but I am saving money for a leather jacket and trench coat so did not want to buy any more sweaters.&nbsp;<br />You wear citron beautifully. I will enjoy this on you vicariously. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-899041 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 22:59:47 +0000 Day Vies 899041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This is too cute! I love the belt and of course the pairing of blue and yellow. I also love the choice of tan boots too. I'm going to copy -- not sure when but yep, I'm going to do it!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898996 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 22:29:43 +0000 TylerAnne 898996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look great, as usual! But the sweater doesn't read as "citron" at all on my monitor (isn't citron a greenish yellow?) This sweater looks more like canary or just yellow.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898972 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 21:49:09 +0000 ElleH 898972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great outfit! I loove your new belt:) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898951 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 21:18:27 +0000 Vicki 898951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Soursensational, Rae! &nbsp;This has to be one of my favorites and it's probably because this is YOUR color. &nbsp;btw, your hair is looking so gorgeous; are you using a certain gel or product to give it that sleek look? &nbsp;Nicely done! &nbsp;I'm loving it that the BH set is giving you a second well-deserved look and that "interesting" style of compliment. &nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898891 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 19:58:39 +0000 cheryl 898891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing! Love the citron and stripes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898654 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 15:42:57 +0000 rae 898654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Denise, I just don't know! I can't bring myself to take it out of the closet yet. I guess one day I will go to shave off some pills and there will be nothing left underneath? o_0 https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898215 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 02:33:34 +0000 CocoLion 898215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love this outfit with the slim top and easier fit boyfriend jeans. &nbsp;What do you do with a pilled cashmere sweater? &nbsp;Do you have a way to rescue it? &nbsp;Do you toss it? &nbsp;Sell it? &nbsp;Donate? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898211 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 02:25:50 +0000 rae 898211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thank you, ladies! I guess I will continue using citron as a signature color. I wish BR had more in this exact shade - I also bought a silky tee.&nbsp;<br /><br />Caro, yes, I've been depilling it every wear for a good long while now. It started to pill after only a couple wearings!<br /><br />Shevia, I have noticed that. I really used to envy those in yellow, too! I thought I could not wear it. Must have been a lot of mustard out there before citron hit the stores.&nbsp;<br /><br />Beth Ann, yes, thin tees are tricky for me. Specifically, many of them give me a weird potbelly look. I don't have the flattest tummy, but many tees highlight exactly what I don't like. It's one of the reasons I was willing to shell out for some Madewell linen tees this year.&nbsp;<br /><br />Rachy, thank you! I may use "simple and striking" as a mantra for work outfits. Don't want to look overdone or like I can't relate to the "normals" (shout out to your recent post), but I do want to look like I know what I'm doing.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898137 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 01:22:15 +0000 Suz 898137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look great, Rae! Those jeans are obviously winners. And to think you debated not keeping them! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898129 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 01:18:48 +0000 Anonymous 898129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Adorable. &nbsp;The parking garage lady must have been yellow with envy. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898089 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 01:07:33 +0000 rachylou 898089@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This is a great outfit. It caught my eye. Simple but very striking. The bag is particularly great, btw.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898085 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 01:06:41 +0000 hedgiehog 898085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You do look great in yellow! I see your hair is growing out a bit too. YLF! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898084 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 01:06:34 +0000 Thistle 898084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You just look spectacular. So put together and so chic, not quite polished but super stylish. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898081 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 01:05:20 +0000 Beth Ann 898081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love the fit and silhouette here, Rae.&nbsp; The top seems fitted, but substantial in the weight of the knit, and that's a great combination.&nbsp; Do you ever have trouble with too much stretch in knits?&nbsp; Particularly lightweight tees?&nbsp; They migrate all around my body and drive me crazy --- this one is perfect, and the color is perfect for So Cal.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898080 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 01:05:13 +0000 Jaime 898080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look fantastic! Has anyone else noticed&nbsp;that yellow wearing elicits more envy than any other color? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898075 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 01:04:22 +0000 Karie 898075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love that citron color - you look great in it! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-898022 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 00:44:53 +0000 Transcona Shannon 898022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This looks gorgeous on you - chic woman is right! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-897941 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 23:48:38 +0000 Aida 897941@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oooh how fabulous does yellow look with that denim wash!? Dig those little stripes.&nbsp;GREAT pairing, I think your sours will really play famously with those jeans. You look cute! I'd have complimented you, too https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-897939 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 23:48:22 +0000 Kari 897939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ That citron sweater is GREAT on you - love the color, but the cuffs/hem are especially rad. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-897876 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 22:44:28 +0000 amiable 897876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-897840 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 22:15:28 +0000 Anonymous 897840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I missed this sweater in the stores, it looks great on you! I am copying this look when it gets a little warmer, but with my orange sweater! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-897838 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 22:14:08 +0000 catgirl 897838@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ My sweater started pilling like mad too! &nbsp;I love this outfit, especially those jeans. &nbsp;And I got the black version of that belt at the Shoptoberfest flea market visit! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-897835 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 22:13:08 +0000 Caro in Oz 897835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Have you tried depilling your other sweater rae? I have a little machine (like a small electric razor) that works really well. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-897832 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 22:08:37 +0000 K. Period. 897832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Gorgeous, Rae! I love that sweater. It has hint of mod and a hint of Star Trek, both of which I consider fabulous. And you really do wear yellow well! Tasty Sweet Tart!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-897825 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 22:04:33 +0000 Raisin 897825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yes, you do wear yellow well! &nbsp;Looks great with your distressed jeans.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sour-girl#post-897824 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 22:02:19 +0000 rae 897824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Bought this sweater a good while back, actually, when I was asking after citron basics. I'm hoping this baby will at least get me through another year, since my Pim &amp; Larkin cashmere pullover is pilling so badly. I initially paired the sweater with my slouchy camo pants, but it was so nice outside that they seemed too heavy. Out came my Camerons... again. If I tracked cost-per-wear, I'm sure it'd be&nbsp;minuscule&nbsp;in no time (and hey, I never noticed before, but they have citron stitching)! Topped off with a new $1 belt.&nbsp;<br /><br />No special outing today, just a trip to Dr. Shrink and the grocery store. But a chic woman in the parking garage elevator in Beverly Hills complimented me on my ability to wear yellow! I count that as a fashion victory. :)<br /><br />Citron sweater - Banana Republic<br />Men's 3-prong belt - flea market $1<br />True Religion Cameron jeans - Amazon<br />Ted Baker bag - flea market<br />Report Marks booties - Amazon
