Last year we had a set that was "Hanging Gardens of Babylon," truly resplendent. And the pastor's seeing eye dog lifted his leg on a bush!!!! As the bush was tissue glued on cardboard, one strongly suspects that the dog was naughty rather than mistaken. SO funny though.</p> <p>VBS is a true ministry. &nbsp;Don't think you need styling help but request for prayers for stamina--granted. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-974152 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 02:35:25 +0000 Deborah 974152@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am glad it's you not me wearing that tee, but I think you have make it 'work'. It's a great colour for you :)</p> <p>Have a great time. Our version is ESA camps and Master 10 is contemplating attending next year... better check the tees before I offer to be a helper </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973953 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 00:27:14 +0000 Vicki 973953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you should be called Queen VBS, because your dark wash denims are a wonderful pick and I think Queen Esther would agree. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973866 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 22:57:05 +0000 Carole 973866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's hard to feel fab in a basic T but you look fab. I think the BF jeans are perfect. Can't wait to see tomorrows outfit. Oh, and a large glass of wine at the end of each day would be my recipe for a successful week at VBS:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973822 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 22:01:31 +0000 Kelly O 973822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it!</p> <p>Honestly by the time you get to the end of the day (or evening) with VBS, if you're anything like me you are just dying to get away from all the kids for a minute. It's a wonderful thing, tons of fun, but oh my word is it a ton of work.</p> <p>(Sidebar: My daughter LOVES the VeggieTales version of the Esther story. They basically go to the Island of Never-Ending Tickling and it's very abridged. She likes the "Pretty Princess." Our VBS was a couple of weeks ago, and we had circus-themed things.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973613 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 19:27:18 +0000 Beth Ann 973613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ceit/Thistle:&nbsp; I take it VBS is also a computer language?</p> <p>Donna/Glory:&nbsp; I'm really tempted to take my sewing machine out, but I need a nap!&nbsp; And yes, the teens, and my tween DD were quite inventive with their shirts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973591 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 19:05:17 +0000 pil 973591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have fun!<br /> Maybe you need to be in charge of the tee shirt selection next year? Then you can get what works best for a diva </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973582 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 18:53:24 +0000 DonnaF 973582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cutting off the banding at the neck can help, then trimming bigger/wider (or not) and finishing the edge with a zigzag stitch or hemming under (or not), then roll the sleeves.&nbsp; The teens would make this into a crop top, but you probably don't want to do this, lol.&nbsp; But I think it's the high crew neck that is least flattering on most women. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973522 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 17:47:17 +0000 Angie 973522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are huggable and adorable </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973518 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 17:44:09 +0000 Glory 973518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the colour is great but agree men's Ts are tough. I have one that I just cannot part with and I roll up the sleeves - it seems to help it a bit - oh and a partial tuck. Then you just have to own it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973469 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 16:40:34 +0000 Beth Ann 973469@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well. They're in closing ceremonies now, and I made it through my first day! They were quite sweet, really. </p> <p>I will try rolling sleeves tomorrow. </p> <p>Joy: Esther's story is seriously "abridged!" No harem (or makeover). No gallows for Haman! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973407 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 16:04:04 +0000 Anonymous 973407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! I've been wondering about making sleeves on tees like this into diagonal, cropped sleeves. I've sometimes cut them off at the seam to make them sleeveless.<br /> VBS is so intense that I used to collapse for the rest of the day, especially as it wasn't air conditioned. The kids love and will long remember the fun songs. Is Queen Ester appropriate for children? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973400 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 15:57:18 +0000 Sara L. 973400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I only like that cut of tee when the fabric is super super soft so it's slouchy. Otherwise, I look terrible in them. Your jeans and sandals are cute and look appropriate for dealing with kids all day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973378 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 15:30:12 +0000 Suz 973378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You wear it well, considering what it is! And I love your plan for tomorrow.&nbsp;</p> <p>Our reasons for disliking the men's T are exactly the reasons my daughter loves them! Tomboy to the core.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973373 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 15:23:48 +0000 amiable 973373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh - we have VBS next week (but I'm not helping, just dropping off my kids) &nbsp;It's something my kids look forward to all year long.&nbsp;Have a terrific time! &nbsp; Praying for your stamina - My kids can barely make it through the week - I don't know how the adults do it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973370 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 15:21:41 +0000 Thistle 973370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am with you. I hate the cut of men's tees!!&nbsp; So not designed for the female form.</p> <p>And, I am so glad I am not alone in reading that as Visual basic Scripting&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973366 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 15:18:07 +0000 Anonymous 973366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, my brain immediately said "Visual Basic Scripting" and I couldn't see how that was a style at all :)</p> <p>I hate the men's tee cut too -- if I get something larger to fit my (small) bust, then it still doesn't fit over my hips.</p> <p>You look cute! Can you roll the sleeves? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vbs-fashion#post-973356 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 15:10:09 +0000 Beth Ann 973356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Vacation Bible School! 150 kids / 5 days and one t-shirt. Well, at least the color is good for me! Anyone else notice how these traditional tees flatten the bust and blouse stiffly around the midsection?</p> <p>Here, I'm trying a faux tuck and bf's. Tomorrow I teach about Queen Esther, so I'm planning on white pants and some bling!<br /> You'll notice my own personal throne to go with the palace theme!</p> <p>Styling help and prayers for stamina appreciated! </p>
