I'd fiddle a bit with the tie of the topper, tho. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-875030 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 23:38:22 +0000 Kiwichik 875030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh thought this thread had died - ladies thanks for all your comments - much appreciated . This is not one of my favourites but I think it at least looked ok.<br /> Just in case you're wondering I don't post on the days when I'm wearing my trusty uniform of wide legged trousers &amp; floaty tops mainly because I am currently obsessed with skirts &amp; dresses - they are still a novelty for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-874517 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:35:37 +0000 Greek Goddess 874517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer it without the topper, it looks all sort of bunched up with the topper. I would have tried a longer cardi, long open shirt or even a nice jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-873996 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 02:00:22 +0000 Debora 873996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, very elegant! I love it with and without the topper. You nailed it, IMHO! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-873992 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 01:56:01 +0000 pil 873992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You and your skirts/dresses : )<br /> 1 has almost a formal quality to it for me. I like 2 too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-873987 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 01:51:49 +0000 Day Vies 873987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it both ways. I see nothing wrong with the length of the skirt. Funny I think the length of the skirt works with the wide belt. A shorter skirt might have been overwhelmed by the belt. I think this is a great combo -- looks comfy too. (I'm so jealous because it looks WARM where you are </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-872747 Sat, 09 Mar 2013 18:17:58 +0000 Spiffy 872747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like #1. I've Ben looking for a let just like that for skirts. Good inspiration to keep me going. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-871582 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 17:04:10 +0000 Kiwichik 871582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rute / Beth Ann I kind of had the same concern you did about the length. I am not wearing the skirt as a maxi so I am thinking I need to wear it so it touches the floor as a true maxi (AJ's pin shows this perfectly) or slightly shorter as a more midi length. It is not a 50s style full skirt but an A-Line. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-871578 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 17:03:06 +0000 Beth Ann 871578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely, as you consistently do, KC, and I like the outfit both ways. I think I would shorten it a little --- to a long midi. How do you like the length? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-871507 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 16:30:19 +0000 texstyle 871507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look lovely - in a casual but elegant way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-871397 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 15:04:37 +0000 Sarah A 871397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very dramatic! I like it a lot, but I am not totally sure of the proportion working (note: proportion working isnt always required in my book....) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-871390 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 15:01:47 +0000 Anonymous 871390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both looks a lot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-871386 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 15:00:35 +0000 amiable 871386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it!

Believe it or not this look would look fantastic with a straight, exrta-long untucked unbuttoned shirt as topper. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-871168 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 10:23:14 +0000 Thistle 871168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #2 best, but to keep the chill offm#1 is still fab and so practical. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-871166 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 10:20:16 +0000 harmonica 871166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it best without the topper. I think it's because of less fabric, if that makes sense. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-871161 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 10:08:34 +0000 rute 871161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not crazy about the length of the skirt!<br /> For a maxi skirt is too short, for the 50's inspired full skirt is too long.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-871133 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 07:39:24 +0000 Deborah 871133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you nailed the proportions. I love this:). I like #1 best and I'm jealous you could cover up, we are roasting here:). It's a very feminine look and very much in keeping with your style:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-871125 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 07:16:45 +0000 Kiwichik 871125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AJ I likey that pin a lot - think I need a full length maxi skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-871122 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 07:07:49 +0000 AJ 871122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I likey!

You have the stature to pull this off, plus your hair just adds the right amount of sophistication and spunk at the same time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-871112 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 06:57:17 +0000 jayne 871112@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I liked it best without the topper since the proportions seemed better, but I don't know why.</p> <p>Looks fine for work though </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-did-it-work#post-871086 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 06:09:09 +0000 Kiwichik 871086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not sure about the proportions of the skirt. Does it work with this top and wrap cardigan? Is it too long? Are the shoes ok?<br /> I actually wore this to work but not sure if I got it right. </p>
