You mentioned once that you have leather shorts? I would love to see your leather shorts and tights paired with that cream sweater! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-800916 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 02:42:49 +0000 Vicki 800916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am really late to the party, but thanks to Diana's link to you here, I can enjoy it for the first time. I love this A-P re-do Anna-style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778837 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 22:00:18 +0000 kellygirl 778837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Late to the party but I love this. You are so slender--I could never semi tuck an aran sweater! Love the look--socks, Hunters and everything else. You look approachable and fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778800 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 20:58:53 +0000 Parsley 778800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this on you, but I think it would look better with black tights under the socks the way Blair did in that last picture in the first link.<br /> I think with bare legs it draws attention straight to your thighs and breaks up the look as well as looking too cold for this time of year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778790 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 20:37:34 +0000 Anonymous 778790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do not care for the socks -- they segment your legs too much. I think the AP photo where they are slouched to just under the knees looks better. I find this style a bit jarring to my eye, because if I am wearing a parka then it is too damn cold to wear a short skirt, but I am assuming that this is "a look", so that is my bias showing.</p> <p>I also don't get the whole Hunter boot thing, but I have been seeing it around campus, it seems to be gradually replacing the salt-stained soggy UGGs that students insist upon wearing all winter.</p> <p>That sweater was a great find, I love it, and it looks great with the skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778776 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 20:16:51 +0000 JR 778776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love everything about this outfit except the height of the socks, which seems to chop your legs up into awkward pieces.</p> <p>I agree that the top part is a little bulky, but it doesn't make it look like the bulk is coming from you, so it works. But I rather like bulky knits over skinnier bottoms, so I have the opposite of a poison eye going on here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778752 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 19:35:35 +0000 rachylou 778752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your chunky sweater is so perfect, Anna. Chunky but not fattening, lol.</p> <p>Also, I'm surprised by how much your look does actually look like the inspiration photo... considering her dog jumper and everything... not that there's anything wrong with that... ;&gt; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778209 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 00:07:20 +0000 Diana 778209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this, Anna. You look so cute and cozy and approachable, and personally I think this is a great coffee date look.</p> <p>I want to try pairing a chunky sweater with my paper bag skirt now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778195 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 23:42:44 +0000 Sveta 778195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like Jenava I like the idea but semi tuck feels to bulky here. The sweater texture is heavenly with this skirt however. I would love to see a shorter sweater in this outfit so its length does not interfere with the skirt's pleats. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778184 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 23:17:18 +0000 marianna 778184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely! I like the entire cozy ensemble. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778155 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 22:29:29 +0000 ironkurtin 778155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anna, I love everything but the boots. I have a poison eye for Wellies in any case, all I can think about is how they make feet sweat and ugh. IMO you have good legs and this isn't cashing in the full check. But frankly if you're feeling it, you can carry off anything! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778102 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 21:02:44 +0000 merwoman 778102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous combo of neutral colours and textures. Pic 1 does look a little bulky - but all that disappears in pic 2. You look stylish, and very approachable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778094 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 20:39:14 +0000 deb 778094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do not think this is your best look but I like the idea. I must admit I have a poison eye for over the knee sock with boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778075 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 19:59:00 +0000 Transcona Shannon 778075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>perfect outfit for an afternoon coffee date - it's interesting but not over the top and the textures and colours are soft and sophisticated </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778061 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 19:40:03 +0000 CocoLion 778061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks cute. I especially like the wellies with the OTK socks and short but not too short skirt. A lighter weight, slightly more fitted cream top would work if you want to achieve less bulk while still semi or fully tucking. But this works too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778060 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 19:38:35 +0000 Suz 778060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I take Jeneva's point but I actually think this looks SUPER cute on you. I love the textures of the suede-like or velvety skirt and sweater with the rubber boots. And the grey socks are somehow sophisticated yet adorable.</p> <p>Have a great date! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778053 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 19:27:11 +0000 Jenava 778053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the pieces, but the combo of the bulky half-tuck and the pleats make this so bulky in the middle. I don't necessarily think it looks bad - just an observation. I think you need to half-tuck with this, so not sure what the remedy would be. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1118-inspired-by-atlantic-pacific#post-778051 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 19:25:09 +0000 annagybe 778051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Did a combination of her Hunter boots looks:</p> <p><a href="http://atlantic-pacific.blogspot.com/2012/10/jumping-puddles.html" rel="nofollow">http://atlantic-pacific.blogsp.....ddles.html</a></p> <p>And this look:</p> <p><a href="http://atlantic-pacific.blogspot.com/2012/11/simple-layers.html" rel="nofollow">http://atlantic-pacific.blogsp.....ayers.html</a></p> <p>Have a coffee date this afternoon.<br /> Aubin and Wills cream cabled fisherman's sweater, Elizabeth and James paper bag waist skirt, OTK grey socks, Hunter boa boots, with Theory olive puffer parka and Givenchy Nightingale cabled pattern bag. </p>
