That said, I always have a hard time with the pants or jeans being bulky&nbsp;Under the dress. </p> <p>I do think this is a good option for your job at the university, because leggings might be a little too sexy, and all of your students will be wearing leggings, so it's good to set yourself apart. </p> <p>Good luck, would love to see any outfits you come up with! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-find-tunics-to-wear-over-pants-not-leggings#post-1013706 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 02:56:31 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1013706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome to the forum! I wear a lot of tunics, short dresses, or long blouses over pants. Some brands or designers I like for this type of look are Eileen Fisher, ComfyUSA, and Nally &amp; Millie. I'll try to dig up some links. </p> <p>Okay, here are links to <a href="http://www.eileenfisher.com/EileenFisher.jsp?bmLocale=en_US" rel="nofollow">Eileen Fisher</a>,&nbsp; <a href="http://www.nallyandmillie.com/" rel="nofollow">Nally &amp; Millie</a>, and <a href="http://www.tcboutique.com/" rel="nofollow">Tres Chic Boutique</a>, a source for ComfyUSA and Nally &amp; Millie. </p> <p>You might also check out <a href="http://www.brynwalker.com" rel="nofollow">Bryn Walker</a> for ideas.<a href="http://www.brynwalker.com" rel="nofollow"><br /></a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-find-tunics-to-wear-over-pants-not-leggings#post-1013694 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 02:41:08 +0000 Anna 1013694@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi there,</p> <p>I just found this forum, and I am very glad I was led to it. I hope that you will be able to help me with my quest of building a professional wardrobe. &nbsp;I started a new position as a college professor a year ago, and I realize that while I have appropriate clothes for the winter, I hardly have anything for the fall season, i.e between now and until the weather becomes cold.</p> <p>So while I was wondering what to wear and how to wear it, I remember that I wanted to experiment with tunics/ short dresses worn over pants, not leggings. &nbsp;As a graduate student I have seen women professors who wore exactly the same outfit. &nbsp;While this is not my number one choice outfit, I feel like it will do a good job of hiding those areas of my body which I am most concern about. &nbsp;I am 5'6' and 132 lb. &nbsp;I am not big chested, but still it's fairly easy to attract attention to that area of the body if I wear buttoned shirts, so I avoid these, unless they are a good fit. &nbsp;</p> <p>For the past several days I've been trying to find a tunic/ short dress&nbsp;that I might imagine myself wearing at work, and I have had a terrible time doing so.&nbsp; I've checked Macy's, Nordstrom, Zappos, yoox. I search the images in google, and also Pinterest, and still nothing. &nbsp;I will very much appreciate your help. &nbsp; </p>
