These pics make me realize how nice in the small pretty prints. Or maybe it is the softer colors? Anyway my favorites are #1 and #3. The second feels harsh for you - but maybe the pic isn't accurate.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition/page/2#post-2264164 Mon, 23 May 2022 11:51:23 +0000 Anonymous 2264164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the first outfit! Agreeing about wearing the top in 2 with a skirt, or softer pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition/page/2#post-2264131 Mon, 23 May 2022 04:38:34 +0000 Brooklyn 2264131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m late to this but I support the blouse in no 2 with a different bottom. Maybe a pleated or A-line skirt. Something a little softer than jeans I think will help the hem sit flatter and blend into the bottoms more.</p> <p>YLF and once again I am in awe of your thrifting skills. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2264110 Mon, 23 May 2022 01:35:38 +0000 Jaime 2264110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for your thoughtful feedback!<br /><b>Ummlila</b>, <b>Staysfit</b>, and <b>Sal</b> - Yes the stiffness of the blouse definitely takes it out of the no brainer territory of most of my flowier blouses. I will play with it a bit and then decide if I will keep it.<br /><b>Indigoprint</b> - I think you see what I see with the potential for pattern mixing and juxtaposition with that top and the interesting style details. Looking forward to seeing your DIY long shorts or short longs!<br /><b>Stag</b> - Thanks and not too much, I will try that next weather permitting (it is getting hot!).<br /><b>Angie</b> - Delighted that you found my post from when you were away. I am pretty sure my Radley was in the back room ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2264021 Sun, 22 May 2022 06:58:16 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2264021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woah, the first blouse is perfect with your hair! Does it work with the pants from 3, or is that just too much? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263916 Sat, 21 May 2022 14:28:33 +0000 Angie 2263916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&nbsp;#1 and #4 are my faves!&nbsp;</p> <p>The cut of the first blouse is awesome on you!</p> <p>#4 is KILLER<b>&nbsp;signature Jaime</b>. Long shorts, fluid top, Fisherman sandals, a bit of colour, statement hair....and I know there is a smashing crossbody with a hat in it somewhere behind you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263912 Sat, 21 May 2022 14:11:32 +0000 Indigoprint 2263912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like # 2 . The way you have styled it with those sneaks. My screen shows the laces having some&nbsp; print variation that really compliments the print of your shirt. Also looks like a shirt tail hem, my fav!<br />&nbsp;My summer uniform is much the same although my topper color palate leans toward blues and gray. Love the length of your bottoms. I am currently thrifting for a pair that I can DIY right below the knee as shown. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263653 Thu, 19 May 2022 05:31:35 +0000 Bijou 2263653@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the blouse in #1 and your outfits are all fabulous. </p> <p>While I like how you have styled the outfit in #2, so it works, I am not so enamoured with the blouse in #2. There seems to be something a little off in the proportions to me which I think is related to it's boxy shape and stiffer fabric. I find with boxy cotton tops, I prefer them to be sleeveless to keep them cool to wear and to keep the look sleek. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263648 Thu, 19 May 2022 03:55:00 +0000 Sal 2263648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As always your looks are great.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>The first is a no-brainer - so good on you!&nbsp; And I love your FFBO in 4.</p> <p>I am another unsure about 2 - I wonder about it with a longer skirt - I don't think you are a big tucker, but I could see it being tucked. Or maybe as a duster over a tank? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263517 Wed, 18 May 2022 02:12:04 +0000 Jaime 2263517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>UmmLila and Staysfit - Yes, it is a tricky number. I will give it some careful thought before I try to style it again. I will have no trouble reselling if all else fails. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263436 Tue, 17 May 2022 12:07:53 +0000 Staysfit 2263436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jaime, I really like the first top. I’m uncertain about the second. &nbsp;The neckline looks nice. &nbsp;To my eye the material looks stiff and does not drape nicely. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263433 Tue, 17 May 2022 11:56:49 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 2263433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the first blouse on you, but I'm not enamored of the shape of the second.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263386 Tue, 17 May 2022 01:51:05 +0000 Jaime 2263386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all! Your conflicting opinions on the second top reflect my internal conflict quite nicely. I like the juxtaposition of the strict pattern with the ruffle, and actually like that the top is a bit shorter. On the other hand, it is a bit awkward. But I see it is not a good picture, next time I will get a better one and try out some of your suggestions.<br /><b>Approprio</b> - Shoes #3 are Vejas, will try harder to frame my photos properly in the future . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263366 Mon, 16 May 2022 23:47:59 +0000 JAileen 2263366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m wearing pink and grey today. &nbsp;I love them together. &nbsp; Love the first outfit on you. &nbsp;Very nice. &nbsp;The top in the second picture looks kind of like a camp shirt. &nbsp;Nothing wrong with it.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263332 Mon, 16 May 2022 17:59:42 +0000 cat2 2263332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe try full tucking 2? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263324 Mon, 16 May 2022 16:20:39 +0000 Cardiff girl 2263324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isabel Marant!lucky you!l like the second blouse but like Suz says can’t really see how it fits you in that photo but l am a fan of gingham. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263318 Mon, 16 May 2022 15:47:06 +0000 Suz 2263318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blouse #1 is pretty and fresh and looks great on you.&nbsp;</p> <p>It's hard to tell with blouse #2 because while I love the pattern and colour (um, duh) I'm not so sure about the cut and collar. It's hard to tell because of how you have to hold your arms to photo. Maybe get one of the girls to take a pic at home? How do you feel in it?&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263308 Mon, 16 May 2022 14:33:42 +0000 slim cat 2263308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All good - and lovely smile ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263302 Mon, 16 May 2022 13:49:58 +0000 Janet 2263302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great color palette on you! </p> <p>I like how the styling and cut of the top in #2 edges up the girlie lace collar. Maybe do a bit of tailoring through the body? I’d like to see it with other colors of denim too, maybe white. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263300 Mon, 16 May 2022 13:39:53 +0000 Lana 2263300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them all! &nbsp;My favorite is your sweatshirt/cardigan hybrid.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263298 Mon, 16 May 2022 13:24:16 +0000 Aquamarine 2263298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first blouse is gorgeous…my favorite. The second top has potential. I like the ruffled collar and the grey check pattern (plays so nicely with your hair!) but I’m not loving the sleeves and where they hit your arms and how they seem to stick out. But that could be more projecting what I don’t like in short-sleeve blouses on *me.* Still, pictures can be deceiving however and maybe in movement it’s different.</p> <p>I so admire your thrifting abilities and how you find the most interesting items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263297 Mon, 16 May 2022 13:20:58 +0000 Helena 2263297@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous as always, and I can see why #4 is your go to; that pink is just made for you!</p> <p>Re: #2, I like it but there is something that doesn't feel quite right to my eye ... does the hem almost taper in a little? Is there any tucking potential? It looks good, just I feel like there's a tweak that could make it even better but not totally sure what it might be ... so helpful, I know </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263294 Mon, 16 May 2022 11:30:23 +0000 Star (Lise) 2263294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first blouse is my favourite, and you look very pretty in pink.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263291 Mon, 16 May 2022 09:02:11 +0000 approprio 2263291@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice! A few thoughts… <ul> <li>You wear cropped pants really well. I like it when I can see your shoes. I am slightly upset that I can’t see them properly in #3.&nbsp;</li> <li>The shirt in #2 has potential, but is it a bit boxy around the middle? Can you take it home and experiment?</li> <li>I love how colour palettes can just evolve. I seem to have accumulated lots of blue, green and yellow without really thinking about it. Surprised how well they are all working together.&nbsp;</li> </ul> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263289 Mon, 16 May 2022 08:47:44 +0000 Vildy 2263289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the apparent crispness of #2.&nbsp; The slight jauntiness. I really like it's shorter length, curvier hem.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-in-the-thrift-store---pink-and-grey-edition#post-2263288 Mon, 16 May 2022 08:17:33 +0000 Sally 2263288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice colours.

It guzzled gas but even more oil. &nbsp; You look like spring in pink and grey.</p>
