Plus those heels puts her noticeably over 6" No wonder the one time *I* copy catted a cropped skinny look of hers, well, let's just say I consigned those items quickly :-\</p> <p>Anyway, YOUR 'rebel' outfit is fabulous! and I'm going to copy cat you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843618 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 21:52:46 +0000 Inge 843618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jessica is quite tall, Christy, so that could explain the differences. Having said that: I think the proportions are spot on in your outfit. You always seem to get it *exactly* right, and you always look fantastic, today is no exception! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843616 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 21:50:23 +0000 Mona 843616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Christy! you have really owned this look. The scarf goes so well with your hair. Jessica is very tall and thin but I like your proportions. I am so into tucking looser pants in tall boots these days and you have done this beautifully. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843605 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 21:42:33 +0000 Caro in Oz 843605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843516 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 20:01:45 +0000 rachylou 843516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Spot on! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843513 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 19:58:20 +0000 Aida 843513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You know I love it! I also like the looser pants tucked into boots. Re proportions, if your shirt was a little shorter they would appear more similar. Also, keep in mind Jessica's boots are heeled (probably 3-4") which puts her near/over 6' in this outfit </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843510 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 19:54:10 +0000 pil 843510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great - have fun on the trampoline!<br /> Your sleeves are a bit different too, with more white showing if that arrects the final look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843503 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 19:48:40 +0000 Thistle 843503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fantastic.</p> <p>Could be that she has on higher heels. I am no photography expert, but I wonder if the angle the shot is taken at could have something to do with it. Yours looks taken head on, hers looks like the camera was lower and looking up at her. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843499 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 19:45:01 +0000 Vicki 843499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the "rebel" in you and this outfit, too, with your special touches. With your bag, scarf and boots, it's still very polished. I like it the way it is, but if you're unsure about the shirt length, perhaps you could try a semi-tuck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843490 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 19:24:15 +0000 Isabel 843490@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fantastic !!! It still somehow looks "dress" enough for serious work on a Friday. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843386 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 17:54:01 +0000 unfrumped 843386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great look. I like the warm-colored bag in your outfit better, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843374 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 17:41:33 +0000 cciele 843374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a great look Christy--Well done! I think the proportions look fine on you, and the wrinkling in the pants don't bother me (hers are wrinkly too). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843368 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 17:36:10 +0000 cinnamon fern 843368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fabulous! There's definitely something up with the camera angle - JQ's head looks tiny in that picture. Yours looks normal sized. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843335 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:59:15 +0000 cheryl 843335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843319 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:43:07 +0000 christy 843319@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! Glad to know it works. I feel pretty great in it. </p> <p>Nancylee - cattywampus is one of my favorite words! Cracked me up when my 7-yo decided to use it in a book report. Can't imagine what his teacher thought - not exactly proper English!</p> <p>Isis - very good point about the camera angle. </p> <p>Suz - Not trying to compare myself with her at all! Just that I've done other copycats of some of her looks and hadn't noticed as big of a difference so I wanted to be sure my proportions weren't off. KWIM? But I'm going with camera angle and higher heels as the culprit! At least that's my story and I'm stickin' to it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843318 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:42:27 +0000 lyn67 843318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great casual (but still polished enough) outfit for you, Christy! I think it's the enourmous heels she is wearring, the pants are a bit indeed slimmer and of a deeper matte black hue(matching her boots) but this could be only the play of some lights in your pictie, so maybe IRL your outfit was way more sleeker as you thought:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843297 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:25:27 +0000 rute 843297@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843295 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:23:25 +0000 Suz 843295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Christy, you look gorgeous, and I love the tones of your scarf with your bag and hair. </p> <p>Yes, Jessica looks long and lean. She IS long and lean. I don't know how tall but I would hazard she is a lot taller than you! You look slim and proportioned; you just don't have the same body type as she does (or as high heels). </p> <p>If anything, Angie might say that her shirt is too short! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843291 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:19:39 +0000 Carole 843291@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Killer copycat! Everything is perfect and love your bag death! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843289 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:16:56 +0000 Isis 843289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks fantastic! Proportions looks good, and I love the scarf!</p> <p>Jessica's pic is shot from a much lower angle which will elongate her..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843287 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:13:36 +0000 Tina.b 843287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look just stunning. You wear a cropped jean jacket just beautifully. Jessica's shirt looks a touch shorter maybe and the boots must have a heel. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843285 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:11:57 +0000 nancylee 843285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Christy, you look beautiful! You've duplicated the look perfectly. I see what you mean about the length of the blouse being a little longer on you...but I don't think it detracts from the overall look at all. The pants might be a wee bit loose for tucking...but again, I wouldn't worry too much. In fact, I think Angie approves of a little bit of scrunchiness (sp?) when tucking straight legs.</p> <p>Love you in this look...and I love the new word you taught me: cattywampus! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843283 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:10:40 +0000 Anonymous 843283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're just missing the shades, that's what it is! Perfect copy cat. And your bag is way cooler, IMO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843280 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:08:23 +0000 Debbie 843280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this! You look amazing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843278 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:07:31 +0000 Jules 843278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit and your proportions look good to me. I'm not sure about the shirt, I think the jacket defines your torso, but your pants are a little looser and your heel may be lower. Both those factors might be contributing to her super long look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/super-casual-work-look-for-me#post-843273 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 16:03:41 +0000 christy 843273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blatant copycat look from Jessica Quirk here! I would normally never wear a denim jacket to work, not even on a Friday, but I am taking the kiddo to a birthday party after work that will include trampolines and chaos so I decided to throw caution to the wind! (I know, I'm SUCH a rebel, huh?!) lol!</p> <p>One thing I notice is how long and lean Jessica looks here - could easily just be body type but I'm curious if my proportions are off with the longer white shirt? The other question I have is about the pants - they are a slim pant, but not tight. Are they too loose at the knee for tucking into tall boots?</p> <p>As always, all thoughts, comments and suggestions for improvement are welcome!</p> <p>PS - my scarf is a bit cattywampus and the knot is tied too close to the neck, both of which have since been adjusted! </p>
