So fun! We are twins again! My feet are in shocking condition -- wish I'd thought to wear my Fauxkalas! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355577 Mon, 15 Sep 2014 03:03:31 +0000 Suz 1355577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ummm, I'm sorry but I think it is flattering, full stop! &nbsp;No "just" about it.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;Okay, I have sugar eye for cobalt and this striped skirt. Okay, I have sugar eye for waist surrender. Okay, I wore an outfit not unlike this a few weeks ago. (Exhibit A)&nbsp;</p> <p>But I don't care about any of that.&nbsp;</p> <p>You look fantastic!!!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355529 Mon, 15 Sep 2014 01:59:04 +0000 Jaime 1355529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic not hiptastic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355499 Mon, 15 Sep 2014 01:21:21 +0000 bj1111 1355499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not hiptastic. Love the color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355482 Mon, 15 Sep 2014 00:41:17 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1355482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To me this outfit is a good example of JFE. Yes, there are more flattering silhouettes on you--adding structure with a jacket over the top might be one way--but this one is certainly flattering, showing off your enviable legs. You do look great in this outfit, and not in a hiptastic way! (Laughing at your term!) I agree that the shoes are just the ticket here, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355469 Mon, 15 Sep 2014 00:26:36 +0000 Day Vies 1355469@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going with JFE. I love the high contrast color combo and the fit of the skirt. The sandals are a nice counterpoint to the graphic print on the skirt. The top is a beautiful shade of cobalt which pairs nicely with black and white but I am not a fan of the fit. However, for the reasons I just listed I think this works for a low-key night with the girls. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355466 Mon, 15 Sep 2014 00:25:17 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1355466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The outfit is definitely F - no J or E in sight. &nbsp; The color is gorgeous on you and that skirt looks great. &nbsp;Hope you had a great time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355461 Mon, 15 Sep 2014 00:18:17 +0000 Parsley 1355461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That outfit is plenty flattering, not just "enough". I only see appropriate sized hips, and no hint of maternity in sight.<br />You look so good in that shade of blue, and the shoes look great. I'm amazed that they're from Target.<br />Please continue to post your progress shots from the remodeling. It's so much fun to see it coming along.</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355454 Mon, 15 Sep 2014 00:12:18 +0000 qfbrenda 1355454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the outfit! I agree with Anna about the shoes. </p> <p>By the way, I'm really enjoying seeing updates on your house. We've done a lot of renovation in the last 3 years, including a currently-happening bathroom addition. I totally understand about construction dust! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355426 Sun, 14 Sep 2014 23:11:00 +0000 annagybe 1355426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The shoes totally make it work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355377 Sun, 14 Sep 2014 21:40:44 +0000 jackiec 1355377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That cobalt is stunning on you. Are you kidding? This is WAY more than JFE! Love it. Hey, I wore a very similar "hiptastic" outfit today with black on top instead of cobalt. Great term - hahaha </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355365 Sun, 14 Sep 2014 21:02:03 +0000 MsMaven 1355365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful color on you. Working the house seems to agree with you--each week you look younger and younger.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355314 Sun, 14 Sep 2014 19:11:53 +0000 MsMary 1355314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, ladies! </p> <p>Marley, the necklace is the state of California with a little heart!&nbsp; I got it for $10 with a Living Social deal, but you can get it from Amazon for $19.99:&nbsp; <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Silver-California-Pendant-Necklace-Accent/dp/B00EV3RAJQ" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Silver-C.....B00EV3RAJQ</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355307 Sun, 14 Sep 2014 19:02:21 +0000 Aquamarine 1355307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely JFE. In fact, I suspect in motion this outfit looks plain Fab! </p> <p>Funny, I have a top in that exact color that I wear with my own striped tube skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355306 Sun, 14 Sep 2014 19:01:50 +0000 Marley 1355306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely gorgeous! &nbsp;Love that color on you - brings out your sparkly blue eyes and beautiful complexion! &nbsp;And - you got those shoes at TARGET????? &nbsp;When? &nbsp;I love them! &nbsp;Also - what is your necklace? &nbsp;I'm trying to make out the shape of it, but can't figure it out!<br />Love following along on the house progress - so exciting! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355278 Sun, 14 Sep 2014 18:03:46 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1355278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That blue color is wonderful on you, and I think the outfit overall comes off as plenty flattering. I have mixed feelings about those tube skirts. I always think everyone else looks great in them, but when I put mine on, I get that "hiptastic" feeling too when I look in the mirror. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-913-jfe-in-stripes-and-cobalt#post-1355277 Sun, 14 Sep 2014 18:03:11 +0000 Anonymous 1355277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are you kidding?! You look Marytastic! Definitely JFE in my book.</p> <p>Fun to have the house updates too.
