(Wave to Diana and Thistle). </p> <p>There is some structure on the hip, so I don't think the combination is unflattering at all. In fact, I think you look huggable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-82913#post-1019467 Mon, 02 Sep 2013 06:26:08 +0000 Asingh 1019467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The skirt is so cute and flirty, DV. How about giving it a spin with a wihte tee tucked into it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-82913#post-1018936 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 04:45:49 +0000 MsMaven 1018936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look cool and unflustered--perfect for a hot summer day. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-82913#post-1018934 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 04:40:50 +0000 Day Vies 1018934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love both pieces but as you all pointed out I am not going to make them play together well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-82913#post-1018920 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 04:18:15 +0000 Carole 1018920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such a pretty skirt! I always struggle with proportions with skirts and tops and from my experience it seems a slightly longer top would work a little better here. Sometimes I like adding a lower slung belt, too. But that's me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-82913#post-1018918 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 04:12:39 +0000 Anonymous 1018918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think there's a color you can't wear. What a gorgeous shade of blue! The skirt is such a happy piece, but your beautiful smile lights up your photos. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-82913#post-1018884 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 03:20:23 +0000 Beth Ann 1018884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both elements are fab, and together, they are so close.&nbsp; I think Suz has a point -- the combo would go from good to terrific if the top were longer or the skirt were fuller.&nbsp; I am in awe of your ability to wear flutter sleeves and shorter, print skirts!&nbsp; You rock! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-82913#post-1018807 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 00:11:59 +0000 Thistle 1018807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ahhh, so cool in this hot, sticky last hurrah of summer!</p> <p>You are normally the queen of proportions, so I am probably wrong, but the proportions feel a bit off to me . . . Still, cool and refreshing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-82913#post-1018655 Sat, 31 Aug 2013 18:45:38 +0000 Day Vies 1018655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz - you're on to something. I think a fuller skirt. I know I don't mind the waist surrender of this top when I wear a twill a-line skirt. I think I need more volume on the bottom to balance the top.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-82913#post-1018650 Sat, 31 Aug 2013 18:39:37 +0000 Suz 1018650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I saw that skirt and thought it was so cute. The colours are fresh and alive.&nbsp;</p> <p>This is a different silhouette for you but for an end-of-summer day I think it's a good one to experiment with. I wonder if the waist surrender would have felt less troublesome if the top were a bit longer. Not with this skirt, I suppose, but perhaps with a slim skirt and a longer top. But I can see why you hang onto this one as well. Silk, plus lovely colour, plus sleeves you enjoy...nothing to sniff at.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-82913#post-1018643 Sat, 31 Aug 2013 18:35:24 +0000 Day Vies 1018643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Diane - yes it is a different silhouette for me one I have not worn in a good long while. I could have added a belt but the blouse is woven silk and it isn't long enough to drape nicely and be belted. <br />There are weird dynamics that happen with a large bust and woven tops -- drape and sliding become major issues.&nbsp;</p> <p>Lyn- I'll wear this skirt with a tucked blouse in plum I have a belt in a similar plum tone and it works really well like a dress almost. Have a great Saturday to you too.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-82913#post-1018637 Sat, 31 Aug 2013 18:22:15 +0000 lyn* 1018637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Indeed. Tuck it in and add a belt for your waist definition!</p> <p>I dunno though, I kinda like this flowy look (maybe because of the pleats in the skirt?)&nbsp;</p> <p>Have a lovely Saturday! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-82913#post-1018629 Sat, 31 Aug 2013 18:02:15 +0000 Anonymous 1018629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is a slightly different silhouette for you DV but non-the-less, you still look sassy and chic. Would a belt not add your craved for waist definition? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-82913#post-1018623 Sat, 31 Aug 2013 17:55:17 +0000 Day Vies 1018623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I felt really comfortable in this outfit. I love a flutter sleeve and icy blues. I also love a floaty printed skirt. I am not sure how I feel about losing my waist. I look rectangular. The skirt is new but the blouse is an old favorite BR&nbsp; -- I don't think I'll be wearing these two together again without some waist defining element. </p>
