Umm ... Not in sight! Moreover you got the body to rock bodycon... Then why not? :). You look lovely! Love your glads! Boo they are wearing out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1256222 Tue, 20 May 2014 05:29:49 +0000 jackiec 1256222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! Nice blend of body con with fluid. I love the necklace with the sandals! Sounds like a fun outing! LOL about the YLF gathering with holiday sweaters!<br /> Yes, I still do body con but mostly on the bottom. Still love my skinnies, but love me some slouch too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1256220 Tue, 20 May 2014 05:18:26 +0000 Deborah 1256220@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look great.&nbsp; I like a body con look and think that this outfit has just the right balance of body con and fluid. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1256214 Tue, 20 May 2014 04:37:12 +0000 Marley 1256214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow Denise - you look beautiful! &nbsp;I would have never thought to pair a black blazer with my khakis - so, thank you for the idea! &nbsp;And yes - I have recently bought some body-con items of clothing. &nbsp;Just wore a midi gray body-con dress yesterday and I felt great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1256210 Tue, 20 May 2014 04:24:54 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1256210@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this outfit on you! Nice job with Angie's formula, too. I like the skinnies, and even though I'm not wearing them as much lately, I still wear them, too. I'm not wearing the same ones I wore last year, mind you; I had to size up, not to get a looser fit, but to get them on. :)<br />I really enjoyed your story about where you wore the outfit. I smiled, picturing you gamely attending the bingo event. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1256191 Tue, 20 May 2014 03:44:11 +0000 Missey 1256191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfection! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1256133 Tue, 20 May 2014 02:22:51 +0000 Jaime 1256133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fantastic! I would not think of this as bodycon although I do see what you mean. I have not even considered anything that might be called bodycon in years, although I still like skinny jeans sometimes. My version of skinny is not that tight&nbsp;though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1256046 Tue, 20 May 2014 01:10:07 +0000 Kristin L 1256046@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see nothing vulgar or big. You look fab! I think the blazer is a great touch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1256038 Tue, 20 May 2014 01:03:12 +0000 Beth Ann 1256038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a modified bodycon in my book, Denise.&nbsp; The top is somewhat fluid, and you've topped it off with a bf blazer with some ease.&nbsp; I think balancing the look out with some skinnies is quite flattering on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1256022 Tue, 20 May 2014 00:40:14 +0000 rae 1256022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You and your legs look amazing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1255995 Tue, 20 May 2014 00:10:06 +0000 Angie 1255995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The bookended orange is DELIGHTFUL.</p> <p>A super little rendition from Queen Farm Fashionista. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1255911 Mon, 19 May 2014 22:25:23 +0000 Aida 1255911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh love this take! I can also see why you're hanging onto those strappy gladiators, I'd be doing the same. Been looking for something like that for a couple years now. I'll let you know if I spot anything (though you're much better at finding those cool things than I am).</p> <p>In the sea of oversized and fluid fits, I've actually been feeling the swing back to more fitted myself, especially for bottoms. Updated my flared jeans from one slouchy and one baggy to a fitted-through-the-thigh pair; updated at least one pair of skinnies from baggy back to skinny. At the very least for tops I am looking at going back to my "correct" size in those larger fits, instead of sizing up one or two for a really oversized fit; for winter, my fitted turtlenecks are starting to sound very appealing again. I like the fits you've got in this outfit, I'd happily wear it myself. And probably be happier in it than I would be with baggier skinnies.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1255880 Mon, 19 May 2014 21:34:19 +0000 Suz 1255880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are the farthest thing from vulgar. This looks great! I especially love it with the blazer. A nice excuse to wear one, if you ask me! Your legs and your old sandals are wonderful. No wonder you want something similar. I have no leads, but will keep eyes open. Those are very flattering on you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1255879 Mon, 19 May 2014 21:34:07 +0000 Mona 1255879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this outfit. Skinnies with black blazer look great. The white on toe nails look very fresh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1255877 Mon, 19 May 2014 21:32:25 +0000 kellygirl 1255877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Adore this outfit on you! You look so cool. I still like body con but personally really only wear it in the fall and winter. I have a hard time doing body con with these shoulders. I always look like I'm going to tip over unless I have a heavy boot to balance it out. You, OTOH, look fab!&nbsp;The gladiators are awesome too. Glad that you had fun </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1255871 Mon, 19 May 2014 21:26:19 +0000 Lyn D. 1255871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am still happy with body-con on the lower half, but not happy with fitted on top so much these days.<br />Love the ankle strapped sandals with your skinnies here Denise! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1255826 Mon, 19 May 2014 20:23:53 +0000 CocoLion 1255826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks MaryK -- those are last year's legs, I think more cellulite has crept into the thigh tissue since then. &nbsp;:-(</p> <p>I vote that our next YLF gathering be at a Bingo casino and we must all wear Holiday themed sweaters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1255822 Mon, 19 May 2014 20:21:32 +0000 MsMary 1255822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SUPER LOVE!!&nbsp; </p> <p>You know I still like a body con silhouette.&nbsp; And OMG your legs look amazing.&nbsp; Love the white pedicure!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---my-take-on-angies-khakis-etc-ensemble#post-1255812 Mon, 19 May 2014 20:07:21 +0000 CocoLion 1255812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wore this on a hot day last Thursday to play Bingo at one of the local Indian gaming outfits. &nbsp;The major economic drivers in our county are tourism, health care (big senior population), prisons and casinos. &nbsp;We have not one but two casinos in our county of 50K population.</p> <p>Last week my chef begged me to come play Bingo and since I will do anything to retain this employee, I went with my boyfriend. &nbsp;The casino was heavily air conditioned, hence the blazer. &nbsp;Of course we all felt really young there, lots of walkers. &nbsp;It was quite the Americana experience and I had fun dabbing at my bingo card, and it was fine not to win.</p> <p>My take on this ensemble involves some identical pieces -- the gray tee and black blazer. &nbsp;And some tangential pieces -- the ankle strap sandals plus the the greenish-gray cropped skinnies. &nbsp;I am looking to replace my beloved glads which I still own but are so worn out, they are unwearable. &nbsp;If anyone has suggestions, I'm open. &nbsp;I loved the delicate straps of this sandal -- the Keeley from Matiko (picture #4)</p> <p>This outfit has lots of structure and body con aspects and I feel happy in this kind of a look, even though it's easy for me to think thoughts such as, do I look big/vulgar in these tight pants etc.</p> <p>Thanks for looking and commenting. &nbsp;Do you still like a body con outfit or have you completely moved away from a fitted look? </p>
