Even better that you and your husband had a nice time. So envious of your sewing and knitting skills. I wouldn't have noticed had you not mentioned it but I can see that your new powder has even out your skin tone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1052045 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 02:00:00 +0000 Windchime 1052045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The faux tuck looks great on you, and those grey shoes are marvelous. </p> <p>I also really love your new houndstooth blazer. I recently bought a houndstooth skirt and was amazed at how many colors in my closet work with it--cobalt, burgundy, black, pink, for starters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1051903 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 21:48:10 +0000 Caro in Oz 1051903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the tuck on you. The peep of belt is fantastic with your hair. Great jacket find too YLF. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1051822 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 18:56:09 +0000 catgirl 1051822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see zero hip issues here - you look fantastic and you carry yourself so well in terms of posture which makes all of your clothes fall so nicely.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1051807 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 18:32:35 +0000 Suz 1051807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Heavens above, Amy. #1/2 is a brilliant outfit on you! I see no problems with your hips or waist at all! On the contrary -- this is super-flattering to my eye. I think the faux tuck is just wonderful, on you and on most people. It smooths the curves of those who feel they have too much in that department, and creates a curve for those who feel they have too little. An amazing trick, really!&nbsp;</p> <p><b>LOVE</b> the new houndstooth jacket. What a fun pick-me-up. And I'm still chuckling at your husband's comment about booties and how you should get a pair -- when you obviously wear the ones you have so regularly! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1051800 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 18:20:59 +0000 Anonymous 1051800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree with Angie, 1/2 is gorgeous.&nbsp; I do see a difference with the powder (unless it's because you got some sun this weekend).&nbsp; Your face, especially your nose, is less pink and more even in pic 1/2 than 3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1051782 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 17:50:23 +0000 Angie 1051782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You gorgeous creature. You faux tuck with the best of them.&nbsp;I am not used to seeing in dark neutrals, Amy. But #1 and #2 are killer here.</p> <p>And great new doggie tooth blazer.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1051772 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 17:41:53 +0000 Anonymous 1051772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice date night outfit! I think the semi tuck works fine. <br />I like your new hounds tooth jacket too. Lovely with the pencil skirt and booties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1051735 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 16:47:16 +0000 Amy 1051735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, ladies! Beth Ann, you're pretty smart :)</p> <p>Dianthus, I don't have any dresses like you described, but I'm putting them on my list. You're right. They'd look good with this jacket.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1051710 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 16:13:17 +0000 Anonymous 1051710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the faux tuck....what kind of AE jeans are those? They fit wonderful!</p> <p>Isn't Target funny - hit or miss with quality, but thankfully you can usually tell by the feel of the item. I like that jacket a lot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1051707 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 16:10:48 +0000 Anonymous 1051707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the semi-tuck on you! Great top and good find on the jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1051705 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 16:08:44 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1051705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure if it was deliberate but you look very sultry in #2.&nbsp; I think the half tuck looks really good.&nbsp; You could try the half side tuck too.&nbsp; I find the angled drape across the hip has a minimizing effect - not that I think you need it. </p> <p>I LOVE houndstooth.&nbsp; I think you have a few solid dresses in blues/purples and it would be great with them and a pair of boots.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1051696 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 15:49:01 +0000 Ruby Redlocks 1051696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreed, I think the faux tuck works great on you and the pairing of shoe/top combo.</p> <p>Love your work outfit, and what a steal for that jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1051695 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 15:46:49 +0000 Beth Ann 1051695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think we've been so accustomed to untucked proportions that we aren't used to seeing the curves of the hip area anymore.&nbsp; The faux tuck creates a nice, and to my eye, attractive, curve at your midline.&nbsp; I like it -- and the houndstooth jacket is a great "pick-me-up" look for Fall.&nbsp; Perfect for your wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1051692 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 15:42:55 +0000 Parsley 1051692@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your Saturday outfit looks great! The faux tuck works really well to my eye, and I don't see any waist or hip issues at all. I love those oxfords, and they bookend the top perfectly.</p> <p>That's a beautiful Monday work outfit! I can't believe that jacket was only $30 at Target! It looks fantastic. The pop of color from the tee is great, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---saturday-monday#post-1051685 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 15:33:08 +0000 Amy 1051685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Saturday</b></p> <p>My husband took me out for a casual dinner on Saturday. I tried to faux tuck my grey top and bookend the top with my shoes. I'm just not sure about tucking on me at all. It does two things: draws attention to my short waist and wide hips. Oh well! I was comfortable and had fun!</p> <p>Cowl neck top made by me<br />American Eagle jeans<br />Crown Vintage&nbsp; shoes<br />Miss 60 trench</p> <p>I also tried a new face powder made by Mattify. It doesn't contain the harmful ingredients that are in a lot of mineral makeup and which cause me to break out with cystic acne. This powder does a nice job of evening out my skin tone. I didn't have time to apply it today, so you can see the difference between 1 &amp; 3.</p> <p><b>Monday</b></p> <p>I went to Target yesterday with the intention of buying a skirt I had seen on some fashion blogs (Philip Lim's animal print skirt), but was so disappointed in the quality that I left it on the rack. However, I did spot this houndstooth jacket which fits me just right (I can even button it up!) and is made better than you would expect for a $30 jacket.</p> <p>Merona Houndstooth jacket<br />Halogen skirt and tee-shirt<br />Zig Zag tights also from target<br />katie &amp; kelly booties</p> <p>Please disregard my messy hair. I was in a rush to get out the door. I fixed it in the office bathroom :)</p>
