Yes I agree wholeheartedly that I received excellent feedback. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-3-basic-outfits#post-1331482 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 05:26:03 +0000 abc 1331482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I believe you got some great feedback here. I had to lol about the man parts. It reminded me of IronKurtin and some of her polterwang posts here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-3-basic-outfits#post-1331432 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 04:00:55 +0000 dawn 1331432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes I do have a range of dressiness Aida lol and there is no harm in asking. I work at Dressbarn and so my work attire is very fluid. As long as I am not wearing shorts, club attire, or clothing that is too casual I can wear just about anything (I do have to make sure that I don't wear clothing that is too revealing or casual though). Aida, don't be too harsh of a judge but I actually wore my heels with the skirt (the heels are a very low chunky heel, though I will definitely take what you're saying into consideration the next time that I wear my skirt to work).&nbsp; As far as the skirt goes Aida, I haven't thought of that but I think that you might be on to something. I think that I will try that. The only problem is that I don't have a neutral colored blouse that is that style. </p> <p>I have to agree with just about everything that was posted about my puckered zipper, honestly all of my denim tends to do that (even the skirt I am wearing puckers up in the front). Are there any solutions for it because one of the ladies who came into the store one day (after she tried on a pair of trousers said that they gave her boy parts). After I picked my jaw up from the floor I had to raise my hand and tell her that I knew where she was coming from. Oh, and thank you Shiny for the tips. I need to invest in some more belts and I will be sure to look into what you're saying. </p> <p>Yes my polka dot peplum top is a tad bit too short (unfortunately I really like it). If anyone has any ideas on how to style a peplum top with a high waisted skirt that would be greatly appreciated. I always figured that the peplum would ruffle and cause unsightly bumps and lumps under the skirt. &nbsp; </p> <p>I know Cerlina. I really like coral and I love the color navy (though I have to admit I personally prefer it on individuals with cool skin tones and dark hair). I am afraid that my skin is a little too warm for it to look good on me (and quite honestly I think that it looks amazing on fair skinned blondes, red heads, and brunettes but it is such a pretty color). I</p> <p>And as far as the dress goes in the first photo, I had no intentions on buying it (I bought it from my job, and I promise that I don't abuse my employee discount privileges... at least not that often lol). My mom talked me into the dress, I liked the style but I personally don't like having too many clothes but I really like the high neckline and the fact that I can wear the dress to church, work, out on dates with my boyfriend, and etc. </p> <p>Thanks for the all of the compliments and sorry for the long post everyone. I will be sure to take a picture of my shoes and of some of the jewelry I wore.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-3-basic-outfits#post-1331379 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 03:18:52 +0000 shiny 1331379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the dress. Jumped right out at me on the WiW wall view.</p> <p>Puckered zipper -- I get that too and the easy fix(es) if pants fit elsewhere and aren't too tight in the waist&nbsp;is to 1)&nbsp;&nbsp;wear a belt with a generous buckle that overlaps the pucker or 2) wear a top that hits at high hip or lower, covering the waistband entirely. I usually tend to go with #2 because I have an apple shape and not an hourglass like you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-3-basic-outfits#post-1331163 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 00:27:02 +0000 nancywalters 1331163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All the outfits are cute.&nbsp; In the third, the zipper appears to be puckered. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-3-basic-outfits#post-1331149 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 00:13:52 +0000 lynn 1331149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That dress looks great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-3-basic-outfits#post-1331108 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 23:43:51 +0000 Aida 1331108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you mind me asking your field of work? You've got a range of dressiness here, I'm just curious Would love to see these with the shoes, if that's at all possible (shoes are a huge part of outfits!).</p> <p>The dress in #1 looks lovely on you (and sounds like it'd pair nicely with either pair of shoes). #2 is very flattering, though with the shorter skirt I'd be inclined to wear only with the flats. Have you tried pairing that skirt with a soft fluid/oversized top, semi-tucked (only tuck the front, letting the back loose)? Would be a fun waist surrendering look that still has a lot of structure since the skirt is fitted. Love the colors and shapes in #3 on you, but have to admit that I'd really like that lovely dotty top to be longer; it looks like a good length for skirts (especially with a higher-waisted midi-length skirt, something a little more sophisticated to play against the whimsy of the dots), but to my eye is a bit too short for pants.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-3-basic-outfits#post-1331058 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 22:42:54 +0000 JAileen 1331058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-3-basic-outfits#post-1331038 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 22:25:00 +0000 Suz 1331038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really love the dress on you!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-3-basic-outfits#post-1331032 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 22:17:40 +0000 Cerinda 1331032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're a total knockout in that navy! &nbsp;With the coral? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-3-basic-outfits#post-1330959 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 21:09:05 +0000 dawn 1330959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Sterling (: </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-3-basic-outfits#post-1330957 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 21:06:59 +0000 Anonymous 1330957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your outfits. &nbsp;I especially love the first two. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-3-basic-outfits#post-1330928 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 20:43:48 +0000 dawn 1330928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Afternoon! Hope your day is going well for you. I just decided that I'd post three basic (as in really simplistic) outfits that I wore for work. For some reason, I am having trouble with the lighting on my webcam, so I will have to retake photos of the accessories I wore and of a pair of coral (with more red undertones) shorts that I wore. I should mention that with my work outfits I only have two pairs of shoes I wear: my Earth Spirit&nbsp; Mason Flats in black and my Cobb Hill Salma heels (though it is a very low heel). Here are the clothes at least!</p> <p> </p>
