As for cardigans that feel to big (this one looks good not too big to me, but it is about how you feel in it) have you thought of wrapping it over itself and pinning it? E inspired me to try it with a sweater and I am planning to stitch it that way.

You look good. The shiny sandals are just right, providing polish.</p> <p>I think the cardigan is really good for the skirt. The drapey bigness fits with the balloon of the skirt without, well, making you look fat! Lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-320-hand-me-downs#post-1201184 Fri, 21 Mar 2014 18:35:50 +0000 rabbit 1201184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it all! &nbsp;I dunno, I like long cardigans, and because of the way this one is buttoned midway, I think it works with your waist for this dress. &nbsp;If it didn't body skim I might try it with a belt, but the way you have buttoned it and the hang of the scarf make that not necessary to my eye with this outfit. &nbsp;Like the&nbsp;colors, GREAT skirt shape&nbsp;on that dress.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-320-hand-me-downs#post-1201009 Fri, 21 Mar 2014 15:53:25 +0000 adorkable 1201009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thanks all!<b></p> <p>columbine</b>: ways to wear this cardigan definitely require further research.</p> <p><b>Dee</b>: my mom has AMAZING taste, and more disposable income than I do. it's a good combination, huh? </p> <p><b>MaryK</b>: thanks for the scarf advice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-320-hand-me-downs#post-1200747 Fri, 21 Mar 2014 05:58:25 +0000 MsMary 1200747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it!&nbsp; And I really like how you've draped the scarf!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-320-hand-me-downs#post-1200736 Fri, 21 Mar 2014 05:37:27 +0000 catgirl 1200736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this a lot - it has an Anthro vibe and color scheme.&nbsp; And the fit at the waist is a nice shape. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-320-hand-me-downs#post-1200735 Fri, 21 Mar 2014 05:35:43 +0000 Asingh 1200735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>adorkable, you look great! I love the whole vintage-boho vibe of the outfit. The yellow scarf looks lovely against the green cardigan. I don't think the cardigan is big on you at all, in fact I think it fits you perfectly! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-320-hand-me-downs#post-1200734 Fri, 21 Mar 2014 05:33:57 +0000 VINTREND 1200734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it!! Vintage is what brings an outfit together.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-320-hand-me-downs#post-1200712 Fri, 21 Mar 2014 04:26:02 +0000 Dee 1200712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoever you're getting your hand-me-downs from has good taste - you look great!&nbsp;:)&nbsp;</p> <p>The color of the cardigan&nbsp;is lovely but if it feels big even when buttoned and&nbsp;you don't feel fab in it, maybe it's time to let it go? That said,&nbsp;I always have trouble with long cardigans with skirts/dresses and generally&nbsp;feel a slouchy cardigan&nbsp;works better with pants for me.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-320-hand-me-downs#post-1200693 Fri, 21 Mar 2014 03:54:04 +0000 CocoLion 1200693@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very sweet and fresh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-320-hand-me-downs#post-1200682 Fri, 21 Mar 2014 03:37:41 +0000 columbine(erin) 1200682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My longer cardigans are falling into disfavor lately too. With that said, you look very cute here. If it feels too big around the middle you could try belting or tying a scarf around it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-320-hand-me-downs#post-1200671 Fri, 21 Mar 2014 03:27:27 +0000 adorkable 1200671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today I felt inspired to wear this scarf, and I planned my outfit around it.</p> <p>The dress and cardigan are both hand-me-downs and the scarf was a vintage find. The dress is reversible, but I always wear it the same way - the neckline and skirt are both high-low, and I don't like where the higher neckline falls on me!</p> <p>What do you think about this cardigan? I love the color, but it feels a little bit big to me. I've got a lot of room around the middle, and it's longer than the cardigans that I love the most. </p>
