You wear that shape so well. The cobalt skinnies and boots are a great mix! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-13-04-06-07#post-843208 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 15:13:04 +0000 Elizabeth P 843208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone. I think you confirmed what I knew in my gut... that white sweater does nothing for me. A friend gave it to me, so nothing lost. I was pretty happy to get it because I had a very similar one in beige that I was realizing was a terrible colour on me, so we traded :). It's hard to get good white winter sweaters, so I thought this would fit the bill. I'll keep it, but for around the house wear I think. </p> <p>Beth Ann (and my apologies, I think I've thrown an "e" on that a few times) I'm not totally happy, no. I feel like I can look good, but I don't necessarily have the look I want to have. And I just don't know what that is, or how to make the difference. I've played it "safe" for so long, I feel boring a lot of the time. </p> <p>And re the dresses - I loved it., will wait for a good sale and likely get one. I am concerned the tie will bother me, but I'm thinking it fit so well I'll just find another one later if I need a no tie option. The current version has 3/4 length sleeves, which I think will add to its versatility - can wear a long sleeved tee under, and will go further into spring. But is it another "safe" piece??? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-13-04-06-07#post-842977 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 07:27:05 +0000 Kiwichik 842977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love you in black and brights - really suits you. Not keen on the first outfit the white top seems to swamp you a little bit I can't see your lovely figure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-13-04-06-07#post-842836 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 03:15:16 +0000 Aida 842836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both outfits looks nice! I think #2 is great as-is, the cobalt is quite a good bit of oomph For #1, I am not too sure on the jacket; the wide sleeves and waffle-y texture read as a little dated to my eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-13-04-06-07#post-842778 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 02:27:45 +0000 Beth Ann 842778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Greetings! When you say its hard --- are you unhappy with your outfits? </p> <p>I think you have a great way with color. Love the soft white near your face, and the jewel tones, too. The cobalt pants are kind of slouchy skinny, which is really current. I agree with Thistle that a little more structure in #1 -- for example, a shaped, but easy jacket in the same color, would be terrific on you. </p> <p>Any luck with the dresses? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-13-04-06-07#post-842774 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 02:20:01 +0000 Caro in Oz 842774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is hard isn't it?<br /> Love #3 the colours are fantastic on you - can you leave the scarf on when you take the coat off? I'd like to see the neckline of the top filled in.<br /> There's something about the weight of the jacket in #1 that doesn't seem to be working with the pants imo - it could be the photo, whites can look odd I know. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-13-04-06-07#post-842773 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 02:19:59 +0000 Thistle 842773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the cobalt skinnies, especially with the scarf and peacoat.</p> <p>Wondering if maybe you need a bit more structure to your toppers? 1 and 2 look nice and comfy, but they don't really have a lot of oomph. In one, maybe some burgundy or cream colored booties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-13-04-06-07#post-842764 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 02:10:15 +0000 Elizabeth P 842764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WIW to work yesterday, and to volunteer in my daughters class and to do errands today. Errands consisted of trying on wrap dresses at BR... that was my dress contribution :)</p> <p>All suggestions welcome. I feel these look nice, but are maybe lacking some oomph. This is hard! </p>
