I would wear a darker colored cami like navy blue, but otherwise... Perfection. The bright white cropped pants look so summery and cheerful, and I think they're quite flattering! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-looked-better-on-the-mannequin#post-157113 Sat, 15 May 2010 21:40:36 +0000 NK 157113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for the comments!</p> <p>I considered hemming the crops because I ended up rolling them to get them to this length. </p> <p>I actually bought the top part of the outfit child-free at Kohl's, but couldn't find any white cropped pants for the bottom there, so I headed to Ross. At Ross, I found a great pair, but didn't have time to stand in the long line before having to run to pick my son up from school, so I bribed him to hit another Ross on the way home and found these. I still wish I could find the first pair I found because they were denim, and nowhere near as sheer as these. But, these were $13, so I can't complain too much, right? </p> <p>If I look houglass, it's only because I have on a really padded bra! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-looked-better-on-the-mannequin#post-157017 Sat, 15 May 2010 15:04:05 +0000 lynne 157017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to agree with the others, you look great. Keep the pieces and have fun playing with them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-looked-better-on-the-mannequin#post-156986 Sat, 15 May 2010 13:19:39 +0000 Sarah Baker 156986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look fab! Great shopping! I am impressed you were able to pick this out with kids in tow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-looked-better-on-the-mannequin#post-156984 Sat, 15 May 2010 13:11:37 +0000 Queen Mum 156984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>so what is it about this outfit that isn't supposed to be good? maybe it's just because I haven't had my coffee yet but it looks great to me :-)</p> <p>I will agree with you that Kohl's has skinny mirrors... but honestly this is a fabulous outfit on you from head to toe! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-looked-better-on-the-mannequin#post-156980 Sat, 15 May 2010 12:43:46 +0000 Dusty 156980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Girl, are you crazy? You MUST keep this! I agree about the white cami, but other than that, it looks fabulous!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-looked-better-on-the-mannequin#post-156977 Sat, 15 May 2010 11:42:31 +0000 chellebrate 156977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this outfit, too. I see "skinny" when I look at this picture. </p> <p>It could be the pose more than the outfit, but if this were the only photo I've ever seen of you I'd wonder if were more hourglass shaped. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-looked-better-on-the-mannequin#post-156972 Sat, 15 May 2010 10:31:32 +0000 April 156972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Skinny mirrors are the worst -- worse than dreadful dressing-room lighting -- but this does not look unflattering on you at all. I agree with Katie -- shapely and trim. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-looked-better-on-the-mannequin#post-156966 Sat, 15 May 2010 09:57:25 +0000 Katiepea 156966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am going to disagree with you and say I really, really, really like the whole look on you NK, from head to toe!</p> <p>It looks very feminine and fresh and you look shapely and trim. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-looked-better-on-the-mannequin#post-156956 Sat, 15 May 2010 08:39:24 +0000 Louise 156956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I rather like the whole ensemble x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-looked-better-on-the-mannequin#post-156955 Sat, 15 May 2010 08:28:53 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 156955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-looked-better-on-the-mannequin#post-156938 Sat, 15 May 2010 05:07:53 +0000 Anonymous 156938@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh goodness, I know the feeling of shopping with young children. I have two boys and it's almost impossible to make good decisions when I shop for clothes with them in tow!</p> <p>However, I think you did great with yours! I think you look very pulled together from head to toe. Why do you think you need to hem the pants? They seem to hit above mid-calf, which is a good thing here, right? </p> <p>Anyway, I vote you keep it all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-looked-better-on-the-mannequin#post-156930 Sat, 15 May 2010 04:51:18 +0000 marianne 156930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great! The proportions work very well IMO, and I am not sure the pants need hemming. Very pretty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-looked-better-on-the-mannequin#post-156924 Sat, 15 May 2010 04:10:11 +0000 MNsara 156924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>NK - I think it looks very stylish and flattering on you! It seems like a good way for "little old pear shaped " you to wear white on the bottom.</p> <p>I do agree that the white cami peeking out is a little distracting, but you can figure out an alternative. </p> <p>You can also wear a denim jacket over the top and pants, you can add a pop of color (red or yellow?) via shoes, necklace, or bag, you can add metallic accesories instead. . . </p> <p>I think those are nicely versatile pieces that work together and can work in other outfits too!</p> <p>I don't exactly know about the cropped PPL because they look good to me, but others can comment there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-looked-better-on-the-mannequin#post-156916 Sat, 15 May 2010 03:42:01 +0000 NK 156916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I spotted this top and jacket on a mannequin today and thought the whole outfit looked so nice, I ended up buying it!</p> <p>I swear Kohl's has skinny mirrors! And the cropped pants were purchased with my young son in tow, so maybe that's my excuse. I figured I'd hem them to wherever they should be hemmed to make them PPL.</p> <p>Anyhow, here's the outfit:</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/46852819@N04/4607506551/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/4.....607506551/</a></p> <p>I don't like the effect of the white cami under the top, and I'm still thinking white pants aren't a good choice for little old pear shaped me. But, like I said, they looked great on the mannequin! ;)</p> <p>Comments? </p>
