LOVE the suit. So perfect for you. It is just gorgeous with the subtle but cool detail of the zipper. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1231087 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 17:52:28 +0000 JG 1231087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wonder how many of us, inspired by your example, have added to our shopping lists "perfect fitting, high quality, versatile, updated suit in my best neutral?" I thought my current life was too casual to justify a suit, but now I need one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1231083 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 17:50:08 +0000 Anonymous 1231083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Late to this too -- what a gorgeous suit! It suits you to a T, if I may say it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1231077 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 17:45:25 +0000 catgirl 1231077@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like this suit I am better late than never! Absolutely perfect and so much better on you than the model. I am awed. Truly glad you waited for this to come along. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1230543 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 04:15:54 +0000 MsLuna 1230543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz! I think this cafe colour should be your new neutral! It works very well with your colouring! Also - the suit DOES look better on you than the model. You're totally working those pieces! I can see these being wardrobe workhorses because of the neutral tone and the cut of the jacket and pants. </p> <p>Isn't Sveta amazing? She encouraged me to get the white Ann Taylor Loft jacket (another overdue WIW) and the flared jeans (too bad the faded blue didn't work with the rest of my wardrobe). She just has this talent for seeing what looks good on others!</p> <p>On a side note, you mentioned how the suit looks better on you than the model. It really is true, and it's interesting how that is, because we often tend to assume how models look better in these clothes. Your statement reminded me of when the YLF Toronto gang went into Club Monaco and noticed how the outfit Emily tried on looked better on her than the model! In the end, I think it boils down to you guys wearing the same style that's more flattering on you (than the model) and also, you bring personality into the outfits (because a model's job is to display clothes after all). </p> <p>Anyway, I rambled but I thought what you said was just so interesting! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1230531 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 03:37:26 +0000 Anonymous 1230531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so happy for you, Suz.&nbsp; The perfect suit!&nbsp; The fit, color, appropriate for so many occasions and pieces that can be styled separately for a different look.&nbsp; It also fits with your style&nbsp;simplicity and urban prince persona.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1230524 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 03:30:34 +0000 Neel 1230524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Taupe didn't sound fun when you said it first. But wow! This suit was made for you!!! What beautiful fit on you! *Doing a happy dance for you* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1230494 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 02:55:51 +0000 Ariadne 1230494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woohoo! &nbsp;Yep, this is The One. &nbsp;I love it. &nbsp;Your PPP paid off, big time.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1230420 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 02:04:40 +0000 Suz 1230420@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aida, thanks....there really is no knee break on the pants. They are perfectly straight. They're just too long in the photos. I may have to have them tapered a bit, in fact, because "straights" can read as "boot cuts" or even "wides" on me. I know Sveta did that to great success with her straight leg trousers so I may be hiring her mother to do the deed!&nbsp;</p> <p>C1, thank you -- I did indeed buy it after you and Diana left. We stopped in the Tahari store and I came away with this suit and Janet came away with a gorgeous top! I can't believe on our last stop I found my suit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1230379 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 01:31:17 +0000 Aida 1230379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW how exciting, Suz! I've been dying to see this lovely on you since it was hinted at. Does not disappoint. I really love how the blazer looks with the BF outfits, super! You may also need to have the knee break brought up&nbsp;just a touch (hard to tell from the photos, but #6 makes me think it's worth looking at). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1230351 Wed, 23 Apr 2014 01:13:36 +0000 crazyone 1230351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great! &nbsp;BTW, when did you buy this? &nbsp;I don't remember seeing you try it on. Did you go to Tahari after Diana and I left? &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1229582 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 13:05:48 +0000 Lisa 1229582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay you finally found YOUR suit.&nbsp; And it was so worth the wait.&nbsp; That color is divine on you, I like it even better than blues.&nbsp; And the structure in these pieces, looks timeless.&nbsp; What a find, I'm so glad you waited for this piece! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1229538 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:31:07 +0000 carolbee 1229538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This outfit and you are Drop.

Enjoy!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1229501 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 11:44:55 +0000 Sveta 1229501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&lt;happy sigh&gt; I am SOOOO happy I did not "give up" on you getting this beauty, Suz! ;-)<br />It is an incredible suit for you and I agree with Angie that the color is more unique than the navy suit - and it is YOUR color. It was a lucky strike to pop into that store even when we were all so tired. &lt;another happy sigh&gt;<br />I KNEW it would work with practically everything in your closet and look how gorgeous are these Pliner booties with it. &lt;more happy sighs&gt; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1229167 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 01:09:26 +0000 Karie 1229167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're right - it does look better on you than on the model, and it looks fantastic IRL! I loved it on you in the store, and I love every way you've styled it here.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1229080 Mon, 21 Apr 2014 23:43:06 +0000 Suz 1229080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think I can have it hemmed in time, Jeanne. It's probably too dressy for the venue anyway. I am going to bring the Reiss jacket, though. It will dress up my jeans outfits enough.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1229068 Mon, 21 Apr 2014 23:30:00 +0000 Jjsloane 1229068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What more can I add? You know you love it. It loves you back. It is amazing with the pink!!! Will it be hemmed in time to go to Banff?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/3#post-1229063 Mon, 21 Apr 2014 23:24:49 +0000 Anonymous 1229063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely worth the wait!

I hesitate to give advice about lengths from photos but I love how the pants look in #5.</p> <p>So happy for you &amp; you've given me a boost to keep looking for mine&nbsp;- they are out there somewhere. Maybe I have to go shopping with Sveta too&nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/2#post-1228991 Mon, 21 Apr 2014 22:10:35 +0000 April 1228991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>GORGEOUS.</p> <p>I, too, love that color. &nbsp;Some of my favorite pieces are a cooler taupe in the same family. &nbsp;Nothing soul-sucking about it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-me-a-hewi-comes-home-from-boston/page/2#post-1228981 Mon, 21 Apr 2014 21:59:11 +0000 pil 1228981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been waiting for you to post these pictures!
