Hope you had a blast on your bachelorette party vacation!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-351042 Mon, 16 May 2011 23:30:26 +0000 amyreh 351042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 is just amazing! Love that skirt on you. And I also love the simplicity of #3, it is so polished yet casual - gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-351036 Mon, 16 May 2011 23:12:16 +0000 Aida 351036@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you ALL for the lovely comments, I will try to get myself to wear more outfits like #2 :D</p> <p>Lynne - The stripey top in #1 is actually more fitted than comes across in the photos. I think overall proportions look off because I usually aim to shorten my torso a bit (like in #2 and #3) and this outfit makes my top and bottom more even in length; this is closer to my real proportions, but I don't usually style myself that way :)</p> <p>Laura - The kitten heels in #1 are from last fall, and I couldn't find them online anywhere. The gray heels in #3 are recent though, from Target (<a href="http://www.target.com/Mossimo-Pearce-Pumps-Dove-Patent/dp/B0046JQC4Y/ref=br_1_27/178-2424081-6560115">these here</a>). They are lightly cushioned and quite comfortable for their height. I highly recommend them if you can wear heels this tall, and like round toe shoes (I usually don't, but I do like this particular pair).</p> <p>Ornela - The belt is just one with several mini-belts built in I was actually pretty surprised how well #2 came together myself! I think it is a good example of having the perfect pieces for the look, as well as for trying on combinations you think may not work: I almost didn't wear this shirt because I thought it wouldn't "go" but after I tried it on it was clear that it did. Same with the shoes, which worked once I'd selected this belt. And same with the hair, which I always do 2nd to last, and I would've worn a normal ponytail if I hadn't already picked the belt and shoes. Now that I write all that, it may also be tribute to the order in which I get dressed </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-350166 Sun, 15 May 2011 08:43:06 +0000 Ornella 350166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I keep coming back to this thread and staring at that skirt and belt in no.2. Or is it individual belts you cleverly arranged together maybe?? I wouldn't be surprised you came up with something like that. Anyway, fab accessory.</p> <p>I'm still not sure what it is that's so magical about the whole outfit: unassuming pieces put together so perfectly making each of them look so awesome when part of the whole, or my own amazement at how wonderfully your style is progressing in the desired direction, with this outfit being perfect example of it.</p> <p>You're really inspiring Aida! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-350052 Sun, 15 May 2011 02:14:12 +0000 Lisa 350052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 is the standout, you must wear this silhouette more often. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349876 Sat, 14 May 2011 21:28:13 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 349876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 1 and 2 too - great shoes in 1 but something else might work with the outfit better. I love the looser top with the trousers to the knee, it's really flattering on you as a change (er, I mean it's a change of silhouette, not that flattering outfits are a change for you...) There's something about 3 that doesn't quite work for me - it's fine, but it seems dull somehow compared to your usual interesting-ness. </p> <p>Any chance that the shoes from either 1 or 3 are recent purchases? I covet them both. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349800 Sat, 14 May 2011 17:44:40 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 349800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, 2 is utterly fabulous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349778 Sat, 14 May 2011 17:14:39 +0000 Lynne 349778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love number 2, Aida - fab, fab, fab! </p> <p>There is something about the proportions of the first that is not working, to my eye - I am not sure if it's the length of the pants, or the straight silhouette of the top... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349768 Sat, 14 May 2011 17:01:27 +0000 Angie 349768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 KILLER. Glad the suggestion worked </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349752 Sat, 14 May 2011 16:21:59 +0000 rae 349752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep, 2 is my favorite as well -- and I liked the shirt untucked before. Awesome buckle belt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349551 Sat, 14 May 2011 02:53:45 +0000 kellygirl 349551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! Love them all but especially 1 and 2! The stripey top is adorable with the capris and heels. Simple and playful. Love that. #2 is just outta this world fab. Dramatic and fun. Wow! What a difference tucking makes--especially when you have a killer belt like that! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349547 Sat, 14 May 2011 02:47:35 +0000 Heather 349547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aida, I definitely did not think the "Elvis" comment was backhanded. I found it to be a comical comment, one that my mother would most likely crack, too. ;D Playful jokes and backhanded comments totally different. </p> <p>Hilarious to know you made a deal not to wear the pouf on date night. Aida, you are just too cool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349543 Sat, 14 May 2011 02:44:13 +0000 cheryl 349543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aida! You rock every outfit you put on. #2 is amazingly fabulous and i am crazy about that belt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349541 Sat, 14 May 2011 02:42:28 +0000 Sveta 349541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nothing new here but #2 is my fave! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349516 Sat, 14 May 2011 01:48:52 +0000 modgrl 349516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome vintage midi! What a great look for you. I love it with the multibelt and check shirt. Great week! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349510 Sat, 14 May 2011 01:42:30 +0000 Laura 349510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 is my favorite outfit you've posted!!! ever!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349504 Sat, 14 May 2011 01:36:24 +0000 Reneeb 349504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow I love outfit #2 the skirt looks great and the belt is fabulous. I like outfit #3 also the pants fit good and I like the necklace. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349496 Sat, 14 May 2011 01:10:00 +0000 Aida 349496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Heather you are sweet ^^ I should probably clarify in light of the backhanded comment threads that my mom LOVES Elvis; she just finds this hairstyle too masculine and distracting and in no way means this comment meanly She also has a great Elvis impression which I get to see every time I sport this 'do, hehe! *curls one side of lip up in Elvis fashion* I made a deal with my husband that I'd wear the poof except for on date nights (Fridays) but still haven't been wearing much. I'll start to do it more!</p> <p>Thank you, Tarzy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349493 Sat, 14 May 2011 01:05:33 +0000 tarzy 349493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. #2 is so fab! One of the best you've ever posted! It's a perfect combo of funky yet stylish. Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349490 Sat, 14 May 2011 00:58:00 +0000 Heather 349490@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awww, I am blushing, Aida! I totally rock that pouf sometimes, too. Listen to your dad and keep on rockin' it! I totally laughed out loud about your mother's comment: Aida, not in a million years, could you fashion yourself to remotely look like Elvis. HAHAHAHA. Hilarious, but not a possibility, Gorgeous Girl. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349488 Sat, 14 May 2011 00:49:20 +0000 Aida 349488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you ladies! I did have a hunch #2 would be quite popular :} #3 was my runner-up Seattle meet-up outfit but I decided I'll wear something more casual (even though I'm sure most of you lovelies will be dressy).</p> <p>Heather - I think I was subconsciously channeling you with #2 I look forward to seeing your version with the buckly belt and your killer legs (and the accompanying fun title)! And yesss, hooray another fan of the poof!! No one around me except my dad, of all people, and one friend likes it so I don't do it too often; my mom says I look like Elvis and is perpetually distracted when I try to talk to her, and my sis/husband/other friends poke their fingers into it constantly and marvel at how I "made it do that" ^^</p> <p>Jonesy - Saucy, well now that's fun! That is a new adjective for me. Hmm how to get more sauce into my outfits now..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349471 Sat, 14 May 2011 00:30:14 +0000 sarah 349471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie does it again, doesn't she! I absolutely love #2! The others are sweet, too, but #2 is outstanding. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349468 Sat, 14 May 2011 00:27:43 +0000 Jonesy 349468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Outfit 2 is really the stand-out, hands-down, bonafide winner of this bunch! This is such a great silhouette for you, and the rockabilly touches are so saucy and fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349465 Sat, 14 May 2011 00:26:07 +0000 Heather 349465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aida, your style journey just went into warp!!! OMG. Outfit 2 is incredible. I would wear that in a second....maybe I will now that I copied your buckley belt! ;D</p> <p>ETA: YOUR HAIR IN #2.....*SWOON* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349456 Fri, 13 May 2011 23:46:14 +0000 Ornella 349456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>2!!! Utter fabulosity. That shirt with that skirt. That belt. The hair. And of course, The Skirt itself.<br /> (I completely forgot to look at no.3 after this.)</p> <p>A tune came to my mind:<br /> Heaven<br /> I'm in heaven<br /> ...</p> <p>More of this, please. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349448 Fri, 13 May 2011 23:28:41 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 349448@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally love 2. That belt is great and the blue is a great color for you. The skirt looks very on trend and suits your shape. All around great outfit.</p> <p>I like number 3 a lot too. The skinny pant and simple shirt are very good together.</p> <p>I'm not loving the pants in 1. They don't show off your great shape like the other two outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0508-10#post-349447 Fri, 13 May 2011 23:27:17 +0000 julijuli 349447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely adore you in #2. The skirt is perfect on you!!! </p>
