Regarding the tops - what a great job you have done, I agree with you -they all look great, but the creamy striped one in 7-8 looks a bit bland. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-br-tanks-arrivedwiw#post-2030293 Sun, 26 May 2019 01:24:22 +0000 Jaime 2030293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fantastic and agree with your assessment. I wonder if Kate is allowed to wear shorts and if she is looking to you for inspiration - she should! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-br-tanks-arrivedwiw#post-2030203 Sat, 25 May 2019 13:27:37 +0000 kkards 2030203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ok....i'm going to be the spammer.....love the tropical shorts, and yes, i can totally see Kate in them, that is, if she wore shorts in public....but anyway...love the navy and the white/blue tie tank....agree on the stripe in #7, but if i'm honest, i'm not sold on the white in #9, does the navy tank come in white?<br />(and a big yes, to the linen vneck in #1, i own it in the solid white, and i'm thinking of going back and added the stripe!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-br-tanks-arrivedwiw#post-2030101 Fri, 24 May 2019 22:36:00 +0000 Anonymous 2030101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did a quick blow-through of BR today, and picked up two tops: including one of these tie-fronts in the orange-y red/white stripe . Didn't have time to try on , so we'll see how it goes.......chanelling my inner Princess K. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-br-tanks-arrivedwiw#post-2029968 Fri, 24 May 2019 13:03:11 +0000 kellygirl 2029968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are fab on you! I actually like the shorts for a hot summer day. Cute! Thanks for posting. I went and picked up the tie top after work last night--in white. FWIW, that style seems to run large in the armholes. I'm usually a small at BR or sometimes medium in regular and I got an XS--it's still pretty loose. It could shrink in the wash but I do prefer a slightly more fluid fit for summer.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-br-tanks-arrivedwiw#post-2029958 Fri, 24 May 2019 12:36:09 +0000 RobinF 2029958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the tie tanks! More interesting than a plain one. I'm tempted to go check those out for myself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-br-tanks-arrivedwiw#post-2029818 Thu, 23 May 2019 23:18:31 +0000 Anonymous 2029818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the tops you are keeping and the tropical shorts. For a tropical print this one is very subdued and can be worn with the navy top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-br-tanks-arrivedwiw#post-2029808 Thu, 23 May 2019 22:39:47 +0000 JAileen 2029808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with 7/8 - looks blah. The others look great. I especially like the tie fronts on you. They add a nice bit of visual interest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-br-tanks-arrivedwiw#post-2029749 Thu, 23 May 2019 20:26:59 +0000 Lesley 2029749@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-br-tanks-arrivedwiw#post-2029733 Thu, 23 May 2019 19:58:34 +0000 Anonymous 2029733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the shorts but like your others more on you!

The meh tank shall go back; we'll see if something else catches my eye or if I escape with an extra few bucks in the bank account.</p> <p>As to the shorts, they are going in the holding zone because I can't cope with choosing between Angie's thumbs up and Kate's thumbs down lol!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-br-tanks-arrivedwiw#post-2029726 Thu, 23 May 2019 19:42:31 +0000 Style Fan 2029726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The tops are great.&nbsp; I do think you look great in the tropical print shorts but as others have said ….. would Kate wear them?</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-br-tanks-arrivedwiw#post-2029722 Thu, 23 May 2019 19:33:59 +0000 Anonymous 2029722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - you look great in these tops!!

Will be heading to the mall this evening to return one (I think) - lmk if you think my assessment is sensible or needs to be re-thought!</p> <p>1. WIW today - just for fun since I haven't done one in a while. Excuse the hair in all these photos - I was at the gym before lunch and haven't had time to repair the damage!<br />2. These shorts - what do we think of the tropical print? Out?<br />3 - 4. To the tanks - this navy one will be a workhorse for sure; tried it with my two navy-printed shorts, but will be good with white, colored and denim bottoms too. Keeper.<br />5 - 6. Was going to return this so I'm glad I did the try-on. I really like the lighter blue stripe; something different and it works with the white bottoms, denim (thought this would be too boring but I like it) and will be good with navy shorts too I think.<br />7 - 8. This one is going back. The white is more cream, which isn't my best, the stripe is muted. It's fine but I don't feel it's adding much to the situation. I do like the fit though.<br />9. This white one is a keeper. It will work with all my shorts except the white ones, as well as my theoretical printed flowy skirt I'm hoping to stumble upon.</p> <p>In combination with my t-shirts (navy, hot pink, blush pink, burgundy, navy graphic) and blouses (sleeveless navy print, light blue linen), I think I'm set for summer for clothes (unless I find said skirt).&nbsp; Nude wedges are next on my list and then I'm DONE.</p> <p>All in all - these are nice tanks! On sale they were $20 - 25 each, except the navy which was full price but I'll get my money out of it I'm sure. The fit is good and the length of the tie ones is reasonably adjustable thanks to the ties. (a few folks had mentioned they are a little long).</p> <p>How'd I do? Does it seems like I have my bases covered?</p>
