Can it be more creative that that!! The belted version is something I have seen it first on You only, and LOVE, but I don't really like it with the short jacket layered on...Maybe you can wear it on it's own, and layer only for driving &nbsp;the car, or so? &nbsp;Agree the last look is a bit owerhelming you:-(. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted/page/2#post-1539367 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 04:21:00 +0000 CocoLion 1539367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love what you did. &nbsp;You are so resourceful! &nbsp;The last styling is quite dramatic, and I like it. &nbsp;How did it move? &nbsp;The belted look is more approachable and conventionally flattering. &nbsp;The last outfit looks like something that would look great at an art opening.</p> <p>And fear not, you look amazing with waist definition RIGHT NOW, as you are! &nbsp;It actually surprises me that you would think this way. &nbsp;Although I understand the desire for a slim midsection, I chase that dream as well, harder and harder to achieve as the years add up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted/page/2#post-1539354 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 03:13:49 +0000 Meow 1539354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So on trend with the wide Obi Belt! Deb - you must be clasisified as a "winter" in your colour analysis? You look great in the black and bright colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted/page/2#post-1539336 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 02:15:58 +0000 Anonymous 1539336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another stunningly dramatic look from you, Deborah! As others have said, you're so inventive. I like the looks in pics 1-4, I agree that the belting is fantastic with this item. It's a keeper for sure! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted/page/2#post-1539329 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 02:07:52 +0000 shedev 1539329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks great belted. It seems really long unbelted but maybe a little more heel would help lengthen the lower leg. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted/page/2#post-1539325 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 02:05:53 +0000 Jaime 1539325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 and 3 are terrific.

SUCH a gorgeous color on you. I love it as you've styled it in #1-3 and I also love the drama in #4. #5 isn't my favorite - too much going on and overwhelms you IMO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted#post-1539237 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 22:09:32 +0000 Caro in Oz 1539237@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 &amp; #3 look good imo but I'm nodding along with the others about the jacket &amp; the volume/ length when unbelted. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted#post-1539234 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 21:53:05 +0000 celia 1539234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love it belted, otherwise I feel it is a bit long.<br /> I have mixed feelings when you add the jacket on top, I have a feeling that it might work better or worse according to the angle from where we are seing the outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted#post-1539232 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 21:48:29 +0000 Lyn D. 1539232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it with the belt Deborah- it reigns-in the extra length in a dramatic way </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted#post-1539230 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 21:47:23 +0000 MsMaven 1539230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More than just "passable."

How did you think of that??? You are so amazingly creative! I would never have thought of that ever, and I really love it the way you have it in 2 &amp; 3. You've made it look like a dress. Amazing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted#post-1539213 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 21:15:28 +0000 Brooklyn 1539213@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the colour on you and the belt is fab on you. I like 1 to 4. For No 5 I like the idea but I think there may be too much volume as you say. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted#post-1539203 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 20:54:04 +0000 deb 1539203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG, I do not know how I missed this post but this outfit is the best!!!

The belting with the obi belt is incredibly clever and really helps to reign in the cardigan. I like it best in pic#1. I'm afraid I do find the cardigan too long on its own. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted#post-1539057 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 17:00:29 +0000 Staysfit 1539057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The color looks gorgeous on you! It's a bit long, and I agree with your assessment somewhat, but it's easy to overlook all flaws because the color is stunning so it just looks amazing on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted#post-1539019 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 15:36:02 +0000 Anonymous 1539019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Angie here - I quite like it belted. &nbsp;Worn on it's own though, and layered? &nbsp;I just see too much length and fabric overwhelming you. &nbsp;Nice belt too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted#post-1539009 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 15:17:25 +0000 Laurie 1539009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You must wear this color more. &nbsp;You simply must.</p> <p>And what everyone else said about everything else. &nbsp;I also like it belted the best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted#post-1539003 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 15:08:03 +0000 Carole 1539003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great piece..I like it best belted and on its own. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted#post-1538992 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 14:57:32 +0000 Elly 1538992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh-- that is gorgeous.

You wear that beautifully RIGHT NOW.</p> <p>FWIW, I <i>do </i>find it too long othwewise, Debs. And prefer the piece un-layered and belted. May I suggest a longer black topper if you're cold. Less chopped up that way. </p> <p>I love all the bright blue that has entered your wardrobe. VERY nice refresh.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted#post-1538900 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 11:23:46 +0000 Lucy 1538900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely gorgeous !

It looks great with the Obi belt, but my favourite is the last pic....not just because of MM either...there is something very avant garde about that look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blue-striped-belted#post-1538868 Thu, 13 Aug 2015 09:05:01 +0000 Karin L H 1538868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow!
