I really like the jacket with the outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1682691 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 14:51:52 +0000 Beth Ann 1682691@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Anne! The top looks great. &nbsp;I prefer it gently tucked. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1682545 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 11:00:05 +0000 lyn67 1682545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both are great, wow I love the set with the jacket, so professionally mismatched skirt suit:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1682431 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 05:11:23 +0000 Maneera 1682431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Works very well either way, Anne. This is a smashing outfit on you!!! Love the fit of that blazer and the print on your skirt </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1682424 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 04:39:19 +0000 anne 1682424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Suz - though I've bought my bag for the season and now I only have white! (last year's deal one was falling apart and DD8 now has it)</p> <p>But I'm hardly ever seen with my bag - I wear a pink coat to work and then the bag stays in my desk all day.</p> <p>Still, glad it works without the necklace.</p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1682417 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 04:33:28 +0000 Suz 1682417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is terrific on you with and without the jacket. Not too body con at all -- it is meant to be fitted and works well. I do not think a pop of colour would be a great thing -- it would interfere with the graphic nature of the skirt and white top. What I might do is add a bright bag.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1682374 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 03:10:05 +0000 anne 1682374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Lyn&nbsp; and Smittie.</p> <p>I don't think I own a metallic necklace, but I do have a big bold black metal one I can try</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1682313 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 01:26:38 +0000 Anonymous 1682313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think a pop of metal would look good in either gold or silver. I think the print in the skirt is enough though.</p> <p>I like the full-tuck because it is a bit tidyer.</p> <p>This is a really nice outfit on you. Really works well, with and without the jacket. (I think the jacket is perfect on you.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1682308 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 01:17:42 +0000 Lyn D. 1682308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Black beads might work, though the patterned skirt adds interest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1682302 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 01:10:08 +0000 anne 1682302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just added another question to the top</p> "Do you think this require something extra around the neck? I'm still quite a "pop of colour" sort of girl. I tried red beads and then a pink scarf, but wasn't happy with either and DD said leave them off so I did. But I'd like your opinions" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681923 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 13:56:39 +0000 Astrid 1681923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer fully tucked I think, but both versions are fine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681920 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 13:52:58 +0000 Angie 1681920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Tanya said.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681846 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 10:52:53 +0000 Summer 1681846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer it fully-tucked, but it works either way.&nbsp; It looks fabulous with your jacket, and I love the skirt.&nbsp; Very nice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681814 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 08:15:27 +0000 rachylou 1681814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not at all too bodycon. I like the top tucked best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681811 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 08:10:03 +0000 Cococat 1681811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great skirt. It looks nice on you both ways. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681798 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 06:56:57 +0000 Lyn D. 1681798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both are good Anne! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681794 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 06:46:43 +0000 catgirl 1681794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not too tight at all! You have a great figure and I love the skirt. I think shirt works both ways. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681793 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 06:45:20 +0000 Jane 1681793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks really good, but I may just double check what it looks like sitting down. with some tops I have to watch out for a little bit of muffin top, when I sit down, especially with skirts and tights. That's just me though. That's said I don't really mind at the weekend and mostly at work in meetings I can cover up with a jacket! </p> <p>Lovely print on the skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681791 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 06:37:11 +0000 Brooklyn 1681791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not too body con. And I like the full tuck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681785 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 05:35:33 +0000 Sally 1681785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it fully tucked with or without the jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681783 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 05:13:55 +0000 Gigi 1681783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely not too body-con, and I prefer the fully tucked version. Pretty skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681774 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 04:41:55 +0000 anne 1681774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Sharan and Tanya. This morning I thought semi-tucked better, but by the time I took the photo I agreed with you that fully tucked looked a bit better.</p> <p>Thanks for the reassurance re tightness.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681767 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 04:28:26 +0000 Tanya 1681767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think it is too body-con, fitted tops look great with pencil skirts.&nbsp; Both ways work to me, though I have a slight preference for fully tucked. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681765 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 04:24:32 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1681765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it both ways, Anne, and I don't think anything looks too tight. It's a flattering outfit on you. I think the semi-tuck looks more casual, and I like that feel, but I may have a slight preference for the fully tucked version with this top.</p> <p>I just noticed the jacket photo, and the outfit looks great with the jacket, too--very polished. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tuck-or-semi---and-too-body-con#post-1681763 Mon, 20 Jun 2016 04:22:03 +0000 anne 1681763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So this outfit is a minor variation on one I've shown recently - the difference is the fairly body con turtleneck top. Jacket worn some of the day depending on warmth requirements</p> <p>Questions</p> <p>Too body con?</p> <p>Better tucked or semi-tucked? (I didn't show untucked as I am pretty sure it&nbsp;would be too&nbsp;long.)</p> <p></p> <p>ETA - I forgot to ask yesterday. Do you think this require something extra around the neck? I'm still quite a "pop of colour sort of girl". I tried red beads and then a pink scarf, but wasn't happy and DD said leave them off so I did. But I'd like your opinions</p>
