I have to say I'm very lucky at both times I snapped back easily. I had 9lb monsters though, so they took off a lot of the weight through the birth and breast feeding!</p> <p>JR - great point! I never thought of putting a dark camp under, I just tried white, which still shows the jeans. I have a med grey I think would work well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768824 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 03:02:22 +0000 JR 768824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like to wear a cami that blends with my pants quite often, to prevent that line at the waist. There are plain camis out there. Jockey often has some, for instance. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768819 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 02:58:05 +0000 Anonymous 768819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Ginkgo. All I can think is, "You had a baby????" You look terrific. And the clothes aren't bad either, lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768391 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 22:50:35 +0000 Lisa 768391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous blouse. The color brightens your face, a great choice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768388 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 22:48:43 +0000 Ginkgo 768388@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fantastic in both the blouse and the jacket, I like both the color and shape on you. You certainly don't look like you recently had a baby! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768377 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 22:40:22 +0000 CocoLion 768377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these you gorgeous thing. I also thought about adding a cami but it might not be necessary, sometimes it's just the flash that makes things see through. Maybe wear one untucked like Angie says, to be safe? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768373 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 22:37:24 +0000 Raisin 768373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Suz. I do like the top, and guess what, I can top it with a dark grey cardi and then it's not so much mustard, and you're right, the grey looks good. I do tend to gravitate to the cool colors, so it must be my subconscious knowing they suit me. I have very little color though, so this ones a keeper! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768359 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 22:20:47 +0000 Suz 768359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have superb taste. I love the clothes you are choosing! </p> <p>I am going to be the one spanner here. Or partial spanner. I love this mustard colour. And I think you can carry it off. So if you enjoy it, I say keep the top. However, I think you look even better in the grey, so I suspect you look your absolute best in cooler tones. </p> <p>I still think the top is worth keeping because it is so much fun and will brighten your life! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768228 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 19:05:31 +0000 Glory 768228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the blouse on you! And the coat is fab also </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768200 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 18:45:06 +0000 Jenava 768200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As other mentioned - would pop a fitted white cami under the blouse - it will keep it all one line and probably make the color stand out even more. Love that color, and that color on you. I think this color could be almost a faux neutral and be worn wtih a million other colors - blue, green, fushia, pale pink, etc. It looks great with the medium blue denim but I can see how the high-contrast with black might be a littel to much. Maybe try with Navy trousers? Not sure about grey. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768168 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 18:11:16 +0000 Raisin 768168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yah I probably do need a cami to hide the jeans. I went and looked today, and it seems like they don't make any that are just smooth...they're all frilly and lacy. I'm still looking.</p> <p>Merwoman - I originally tried them on with the black tux pants and that's what I thought looked bad. But they may go well with the grey pants with the black tux stripe...I shall try that combo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768129 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 17:20:18 +0000 Anonymous 768129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The golden color definitely works for you. You glow. I was also going to suggest a cami because your jeans show through the top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768121 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 17:16:05 +0000 catgirl 768121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this color looks amazing on you. I love your coat too... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768118 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 17:15:27 +0000 Transcona Shannon 768118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That mustard blouse is gorgeous on you! I do think it could use a cami though </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768107 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 17:03:04 +0000 merwoman 768107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know what you mean by "liking the idea" of a certain colour or style. Sometimes the reality doesn't live up to the idea - but in your case it does! What about this blouse with those fab tuxedo type trousers from your ginormous haul? Nice over-sized watch to round things out? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768087 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:09:09 +0000 Parsley 768087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That color looks great on you!</p> <p>You look fabulous in your coat and boots, as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768056 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 15:40:01 +0000 Raisin 768056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, there's no cami. Probably need one by the sounds of it though! hehe.<br /> Well I like earth colors, so glad it works. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768052 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 15:36:52 +0000 Angie 768052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You wear earth tones well. The mustard blouse looks gorgeous! Un-tuck the cami? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---some-new-items-not-sure-about-this-color-on-me#post-768051 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 15:35:22 +0000 Kristin L 768051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like that color on you.

Part of the haul of clothes I got to restock my wardrobe after my post pregnancy purge. So new Helmut jeans and a Joie silk top I scored on Ebay. I love the idea of this color, and I don't do much color. But not sure if it suits me? It definitely works better with jeans though. I first had it on with black pants and it was just washing me out. I think I can handle it with jeans though. What do you think?</p> <p>And the boots and jacket are from many seasons ago - Rudsak in Montreal. </p>
