Fantastic finds. You look amazing. I really really like you with dark browns and that russet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1/page/2#post-1943827 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 18:42:34 +0000 julesegr 1943827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this new crop of high-waist jeans are confusing. I tried the Veronica Beard Button Hem jeans in my normal size and a size down and I *still* feel like they are pulling downward at the crotch. Does this mean I don't have enough rise on my body to accommodate them? Maybe that's what is happening to you, too.&nbsp;</p> <p>I suppose a belt like the Hipsi can solve that problem by keeping them up higher on my waist throughout the day, but I am just not sure if that's the correct solution (or if the solution is to send them back).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1/page/2#post-1943803 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 17:23:05 +0000 Jenn 1943803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie—we will probably head out there in October or November again, but I have a four-day trip to LA coming up. Haven’t decided if it’s big enough for that, but probably! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1943782 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 15:59:00 +0000 Angie 1943782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Book a trip to Seattle so that you can use your new KILLER item of luggage </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1943765 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 15:46:06 +0000 Jenn 1943765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all! The tags are off the Frye bag, but I haven't used it yet, since it's <i>luggage</i> for me. Next trip! Until then, it's a gorgeous closet decoration.</p> <p>I have the jeans and wrap set aside for now to compare to other options and think about alterations. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1943689 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 13:05:07 +0000 lyn67 1943689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, fopr the weary doc's bag:-) and the wrap!!! Love the cognac accents for a fall outfit and ...I actually <b>love the jeans</b> here, think they make your legs &amp; hips looking long and slim!!!! Could you size up(so to be a more relaxed on thightw for not weighing them down in motion) and see if they will go better even if maybe holding them up with a belt? Really realy&nbsp; love them on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1943688 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 13:00:41 +0000 Colette 1943688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW! You look great. Love your hair and pop of color on your lips.</p> <p>Frye bag is so fab and I love that scarf, color is perfect for you. But if it is a duplication I understand the hesitation.</p> <p>At first glance on the jeans they look amazing on you, hugs your curves in all the right ways. Really! But I do see that they are too big so I'd most definitely size down.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1943686 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 12:49:57 +0000 Janet 1943686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That bag is amazing, and I'm glad you're keeping it!</p> <p>The wrap is a great color for you too.&nbsp;</p> <p>I see how long the rise is in those jeans and agree that there may be a better pair out there for you. I have this problem with many jeans, and when they are stretchy, it isn't like they just sit low like boyfriend jeans -- they do a weird shifting thing that ends up just feeling odd with a bunch of extra fabric in the crotch. Otherwise they look great, but I know how frustrating that fit issue is. Maybe a size down will help? But if not, your perfect jeans are out there still! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1943684 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 12:42:19 +0000 dakotacheryl 1943684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow you look wonderful!! &nbsp;That Frye bag is a lifetime investment piece...Man I wish I had seen this cashmere wrap in that rust color before it sold out !!</p> <p>I LOVE the pants the model in the NAS photo is wearing...anyone know what they are?? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1943665 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 11:26:34 +0000 Style Fan 1943665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jenn, I am late to the party but I love the Frye bag.&nbsp; Gorgeous.&nbsp; So perfect for you.&nbsp; The Halogen wrap is lovely and a great colour for you.&nbsp; Love your hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1941962 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 10:39:23 +0000 Kathie 1941962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Echoing all the other comments about the gorgeous bag and scarf. I understand your hesitancy on a close duplication with the scarf, but the color is fab on you. Enjoy your finds! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1941899 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 04:30:57 +0000 Anonymous 1941899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have caefully curated a spectacular wardrobe and any pieces here that you choose to keep will fit right in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1941898 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 04:26:20 +0000 CocoLion 1941898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the bag. &nbsp;Love the wrap. &nbsp;Although you may have similar pieces, this one is in that just shade of rust which is an it color for fall. &nbsp;Plus it looks great with your coloring. &nbsp;Jeans are very flattering but look too long in the rise, like it's dropping at the crotch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1941891 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 04:11:01 +0000 Jenn 1941891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, shevia! I love this lipstick color but man, it transfers like crazy!</p> <p>Karen, that makes sense but in this case, I think the waist was just too big. The rise went all the way up to my natural waist...and fell right back down. </p> <p>I wanted to show y’all one more pic of the duffel, because I was playing with it and realized the corners can be unhooked to turn the whole thing into a giant tote! Handy for some extra capacity. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1941886 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 03:54:30 +0000 karen13 1941886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the bag and the scarf! Great colors. </p> <p>Hold out for the perfect jeans - they are out there. I have noticed a few similar weird crotch wrinkles in jeans that have too shallow a crotch curve - there is too much fabric for my particular body shape and it has nowhere to go but wrinkles. &nbsp;Turn them inside out and compare them to a great fitting pair and see if the "scoop" shape is different. I did rescue a non-returnable pair that had this problem by sewing in a deeper crotch curve, but it is was a improvement, not a fix. </p> <p></p> <p>And I second Suz's Hipsi suggestion. I have 4 colors and 2 belt buckles. And I emailed Hipsi to ask for a custom package deal and they were lovely.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1941882 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 03:34:35 +0000 Jaime 1941882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the bag, your lipstick and hair. The jeans look great but bagging out potential seems huge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1941869 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 02:25:23 +0000 Jenn 1941869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Bijou</b>, I was hoping to not have this problem with jeans designed for curves! Alas.</p> <p><b>Firecracker and Angie,&nbsp;</b>you noticed the hair! I just got it cut yesterday. I'm trying a new stylist because mine has been out of town with family issues. This one's not very familiar with my hair yet, but she did a pretty good job cutting my bangs back in. I suspect the next cut from her will be even better.</p> <p><b>Angie, </b>okie doke. I have the dark wash coming in the same size, and I just ordered in the size down, as well.<br /><b></b><br /><b>JAileen</b>, they do look good together, don't they?</p> <p><b>Windchime,&nbsp;</b>it's such a lovely color, I find it hard to resist!</p> <p><b>Suz,&nbsp;</b>I do regularly wear belts with my bf jeans, and I have been considering getting one of those Hipsi belts. I would rather have jeans that fit properly, though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1941858 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 01:43:06 +0000 Suz 1941858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That Frye bag is PERFECT for you!! Such a stunning addition to your closet.&nbsp;</p> <p>I also adore the wrap but understand your concerns. Waiting seems reasonable.&nbsp;</p> <p>As for the jeans, I suspect they are too large. Try them a size down. Also, consider a belt. If you generally don't wear belts, then how about a Hipsi belt? Stretchy and invisible (almost) under tops. I have worn mine to pills and need to re-order after 4 years. It's super useful. Also adjustable to different rises.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1941853 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 01:19:53 +0000 Windchime 1941853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreeing with La PEDESTRIENNE that if you end up keeping only the Frye bag, you will still have had a wildly successful sale. That bag is totally gorgeous, and I know you’ve been super excited about it.</p> <p>The wrap is very beautiful on you, but if you already have one or two others that fill the same role, it might make sense to not keep it. I’m wanting to make my own closet smaller these days, with only things I really love and wear a lot, so I would understand that decision. On the other hand, the wrap looks amazing on you... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1941846 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 00:52:47 +0000 Angie 1941846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you just had your hair done, <b>Jenn</b>? I adore it.&nbsp;</p> <p>KILLER bag and wrap.

I agree with your decision on the jeans, because the rise looks a bit long in the front to me, too.

The jeans unfortunately don’t fit right, the waist could be altered, so close...... hopefully the next jeans are a better fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1941799 Thu, 26 Jul 2018 22:10:24 +0000 Sal 1941799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The bag is gorgeous!!!!!!!</p> <p>To me the the jeans look good but pants that need constant hoiking up are a pain...</p> <p>The scarf is stunning but it might split wears.....it does look like a long term purchase though that is unlikely to wear out.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Great choices though.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1941796 Thu, 26 Jul 2018 22:01:59 +0000 Jenn 1941796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreed,<b> LP!</b> </p> <p><b><br /></b></p> <p><b></b>(but I really do need new jeans soon!)<b></b></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1941795 Thu, 26 Jul 2018 22:01:33 +0000 Jenn 1941795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aww, thanks <b>Smittie</b>! It is literally just what I was wearing today, plus the new things. Cohesion is getting easier the more I curate my purchasing.</p> <p>I will try a size down before the sale ends, especially if the other pair doesn't work, because I really do think these have potential. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/try-ons-part-1#post-1941794 Thu, 26 Jul 2018 21:59:27 +0000 LaPed 1941794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Geez, even if all you end up keeping is the Frye bag, I think this year's sale will count as a&nbsp;<b>major&nbsp;</b>success.

Beautifully styled! </p>
