I was glad I did because we had to walk from the family's home to a beautiful decking area in the veld for the ceremony... how divine is this place? I do&nbsp;love Africa! <br /><br />I was a little concerned about whether the outfit was appropriate but the dress code for the day was fairly casual and I did not feel out if place at all.<br /><br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-kp-skirt-revisited#post-892029 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 01:10:56 +0000 Nanabear 892029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ #1 is gorgeous! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-kp-skirt-revisited#post-892026 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 01:10:22 +0000 Beth Ann 892026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Exactly!&nbsp; Love this "tweak," Hil.&nbsp; From your posts, I get the feeling you feel like camouflaging the midsection.&nbsp; Wearing a tuck with belt under a jacket is a great way to break in this look while feeling "tucked away" so to speak.&nbsp; The scrunch in the sleeve and the wedge open and lift the silhouette.<br />I do think your style and wardrobe would warrant a shorter (what Angie calls "cheeky") denim jacket.&nbsp; Mine is a little long, but I don't wear it enough to warrant a second purchase.&nbsp; I think this would be a purchase for you, however, if you find one.<br /><br />Love those wedges, BTW!<br /><br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-kp-skirt-revisited#post-891701 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 19:25:54 +0000 Angie 891701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ That depends on whether being super casual is allowed and respectful to the parents. If so - my thumbs are up!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-kp-skirt-revisited#post-891688 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 19:16:03 +0000 Hil 891688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thistle - I think the cat was actually trying to get to my empty bowl of fruit salad and yoghurt for a lick, lol!&nbsp;<br /><br />Yay - a thumbs up from Angie... The next question... is this suitable for a baby naming ceremony on Monday morning, being held outdoors at a nature estate? No dress code specified.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-kp-skirt-revisited#post-891674 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 19:02:03 +0000 Angie 891674@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Another vote for #1! Nice proportions.&nbsp;Boho Arty Casual Fab https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-kp-skirt-revisited#post-891673 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 19:00:04 +0000 Thistle 891673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love #1. Cute fur baby too. She looks like she is up to mischief! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-kp-skirt-revisited#post-891667 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 18:51:35 +0000 Hil 891667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Okay! Getting somewhere now! I need a shorter jacket, definite hole in my wardrobe. I didn't even see my SkatCat playing in the background https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-kp-skirt-revisited#post-891423 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 15:21:58 +0000 Liz A. 891423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ it looks 100x better! i also love that cat in the background. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-kp-skirt-revisited#post-891394 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 14:59:46 +0000 Tanya 891394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hmm, I like #1 much better than #2 and #3, a&nbsp;definitive&nbsp;improvement. &nbsp; &nbsp;Do you by any chance have a really cropped denim or similar jacket, that hits around your waist? &nbsp;I feel that would work even better. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-kp-skirt-revisited#post-891393 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 14:59:27 +0000 Anonymous 891393@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh, it looks so much better in 1! It has the flowiness but you can see your waist, and I love those shoes with it.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-kp-skirt-revisited#post-891391 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 14:58:04 +0000 Hil 891391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ So I tried a couple of the suggestions from the other thread with regard to the long brown skirt. <br /><br />Tucked in the tank top<br />Added a belt<br />Changed the shoes to a wedge sandal<br />Scrunched the sleeve on the denim jacket<br /><span><br />Does this work any better or should a I give up and donate the skirt...?<br /><br />#2 and #3 are&nbsp;the original pics I posted, for ease of reference :)&nbsp;</span><br />
