I am honestly NOT good at it. Just a lot of help from friends and shop assistents. Oh and focus and persistance. But talent? no, no, no.

I see you are concerned with making a waist but imo the belt stops the flow of the eye to your face - maybe a belt in a similar tone to the top would be worth a try. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-simple-sweater-and-wide-skirt#post-1078267 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 22:11:04 +0000 Deborah 1078267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous! I think you under estimate your styling abilities ;). Love #1 and I like it with the belt. This outfit is stunning , perfection at every turn. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-simple-sweater-and-wide-skirt#post-1078252 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 22:05:40 +0000 No Fear of Fashion 1078252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi girls,<br />Some of you gave me the advice to wear them without a belt. I will certainly try that. I had not thought of it as I am so fixed on creating a waist.<br />As for the two colours <b>Marley</b>, I agree with you, the fuchsia is a bit better for me than the blue one.<br />The skirt was thrifted as I could not find such a skirt last year. Of course this year you can find plenty. But hey. I got this one for a bargain and it is good quality.<br />Greetje </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-simple-sweater-and-wide-skirt#post-1077773 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 15:02:34 +0000 Anonymous 1077773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful outfits!

Nice styling here too, I especially like the repeat of dots in #1 with the scarf and hose, a fun look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-simple-sweater-and-wide-skirt#post-1077581 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 11:12:11 +0000 Anonymous 1077581@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful outfits Greetje. I rather like the belts too, though you could try a couple of versions without too for changing things round. I think the length of your skirts is just right and I love your tights and footwear. Fab styling! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-simple-sweater-and-wide-skirt#post-1077571 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 09:56:19 +0000 RunswithDolphins 1077571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both outfits look great on you and I particularly love the polka dot scarf combined with the dot pattern hose in #1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-simple-sweater-and-wide-skirt#post-1077564 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 09:38:04 +0000 Debra 1077564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous outfits, love the colours, the tights and the scarf </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-simple-sweater-and-wide-skirt#post-1077499 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 06:05:44 +0000 Asingh 1077499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF! I especially like how you've styled the pink sweater with the monochrome scarf and patterned stockings! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-simple-sweater-and-wide-skirt#post-1077460 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 05:18:17 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1077460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful, flirty, fun outfits! They are both great on you. I especially like the lines of that brown skirt. I had the same thought as Marley, about trying the outfits without the belts for another kind of look. You could ruche up the sweater hems a little for a more casual look, especially if you wanted to try chunkier footwear. Again, this is just for a very different, less refined option! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-simple-sweater-and-wide-skirt#post-1077454 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 05:07:21 +0000 Anonymous 1077454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Greetje, these outfits are fun and feminine.

No help from friends or shop assistents and that makes me proud. As I am not that good in styling. my only achievement is "black and white and another colour". Although these outfits are based on that as well, I was pleased with my two polka dot items.</p> <p>I bought this warm and soft sweater in two bright colours. The fuchsia combined with black and the blue one with brown. The last picture shows you the earrings (purple with bright blue) which I wear with the blue sweater.</p> <p>Do you like it? Or do you think I can do better?<br />Greetje </p>
