Most times I end up layering it under a sweater. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-better-pics#post-1276095 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 04:09:21 +0000 CocoLion 1276095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both looks for you! &nbsp;I prefer your indoor photos because the angle is better, more accurate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-better-pics#post-1276090 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 04:05:32 +0000 Beth Ann 1276090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can see why you're enjoying the black/white top.&nbsp; I think trendy summer tops are a great place to skimp on quality whne choices have to be made -- they don't have to last more than a couple of seasons.</p> <p>The yellow pants are terrific.&nbsp; I concur with Aida that a sleek oxford would dress this up more.&nbsp; Conversely, a boxier or slouchier top would work.</p> <p>I have the opposite dressing issue --- I do smart casual so much better than super casual.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-better-pics#post-1276056 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 03:08:04 +0000 amiable 1276056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nebraskim - I got them at Lincoln Berean Church's clothing exchange - sorry, no help at all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-better-pics#post-1276049 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 03:04:31 +0000 Gracie 1276049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outdoors photos - Love the top in #1! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-better-pics#post-1276043 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 02:57:13 +0000 Anonymous 1276043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Try the yellow jeans with the black and white top in 1/2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-better-pics#post-1276042 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 02:57:05 +0000 Karina 1276042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm on board with loving that top in #1/2. Great color/print/shape! It could also work well half-tucked with a pencil or tube skirt. Sometimes a dressier silhouette in a more casual fabrication can help bridge that gap to a less casual but still comfortable style. Stretchy knit skirts and dresses come to mind. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-better-pics#post-1275992 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 02:28:25 +0000 Jaime 1275992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the top in the first outfit. Like pil I think the cut in the second top is not your style right now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-better-pics#post-1275988 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 02:23:03 +0000 Nebraskim 1275988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE those yellow pants. I have been searching for full length yellow pants. please let me know where you found them. Did you know I also live in Lincoln? That patterned top in 1 is very flattering, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-better-pics#post-1275862 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 23:53:34 +0000 pil 1275862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also, the top in 3 isn't as fluid as the other so maybe that makes a difference in your 'happiness factor'? With my peach pants it was suggested I try 'tougher' colors, in this case gray and olive drab, to unsweeten the peach so to speak. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-better-pics#post-1275855 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 23:47:04 +0000 Aida 1275855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great top in #1/2, what a fun hectic box print. Nice to see you "out in the wild". too If #3 is meant to be dressier, I'd swap the footwear to something else like a sleek oxford. The outfit IS dressier, but I think sleeker footwear would help further that along just a touch. Also it looks like the top is semi-tucked, perhaps adding a fun printed belt to add a little pattern mix would help things feel more current? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-better-pics#post-1275667 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 20:19:23 +0000 Sara L. 1275667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the print on both tops.&nbsp; I think different shoes with the yellow jeans might help that outfit.&nbsp; That could be my poison eye for birks although I think they look good with the first outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-better-pics#post-1275615 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 18:59:09 +0000 Jenny H 1275615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look great! I particularly like the top in 1 and 2.&nbsp;And hooray for outdoor photos-- the lighting is so much better outside. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-better-pics#post-1275611 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 18:53:06 +0000 amiable 1275611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Following suit for better WIW posts, I took pics outside. &nbsp;I don't know why I never started doing this again when winter was over (I know why I didn't in winter....) &nbsp;Obviously the light out there is so much better than indoor light, and it took barely more time. &nbsp;(Contrast to pic #2, which is earlier today, indoors). &nbsp;Outside, the green light makes me look like I have no lips, hmm... maybe I should wear make up.</p> <p>Today I'm wearing a black/white print woven tee. &nbsp;I like this top (it has zippers on the shoulders!), even though it's not good quality. &nbsp;My happiness factor in this outfit is rather high - I like the not-too-many colors and simple shapes.</p> <p>Yesterday I felt not-really frumpy, but definitely not current in my psychadelic swirl top and yellow jeans. &nbsp;I've been trying to think through finding a style for me when I don't want to be super-casual that makes me feel as good as my super casual style does (when it does, that is). &nbsp;Today's post on Alison reminds me that she would be a good source for inspiration.</p> <p>Any comments and suggestions for improvement are welcome!</p> </p>
