I <b>ADORE</b> that colour on you. WOW.&nbsp;<br /><br />But I hear you absolutely on the sweater fit thing. I got a burgundy sweater from Banana Republic in the fall that I thought was oh-so-wonderful when I ordered it but about two wears I decided it was way too fitted and what was I thinking? It is amazing how these perceptions change. It is not too small. Just...fitted!!&nbsp;<br /><br />Love the texture of your pants, too. And as for the cobalt skirt and silk top...gorgeous!!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-capris-oh-and-my-hunchback#post-911953 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 03:05:46 +0000 K. Period. 911953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Awwww, Shevia and&nbsp;Sarah, you are so sweet! Thanks. I'll investigate Angie's rec on the Tippi and also see if I can wash the sweater and block it a bit into a larger size. &nbsp;I might be able to get enough ease. It is always wonderful to learn that the colors that you've always thought suited you really do suit you! &nbsp;&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-capris-oh-and-my-hunchback#post-911909 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 02:28:54 +0000 sarah 911909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Gosh, I agree with Angie. Are you sure you want to part with that sweater? It's so lovely on you. And your other outfit is gorgeous, too. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-capris-oh-and-my-hunchback#post-911874 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 01:57:30 +0000 Angie 911874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ :)<br /><br />K, try the Tipi's at J.Crew this season. They'll probably have this colour in pullovers.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-capris-oh-and-my-hunchback#post-911863 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 01:52:04 +0000 Jaime 911863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like both outfits. I think the length of the capris work because they are slim on your leg and the pointy shoes help. The sweater isn't the most slouchy current shape but the whole thing looks good together. The skirt and blouse look fantastic. Good job with the zipper! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-capris-oh-and-my-hunchback#post-911857 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 01:47:22 +0000 K. Period. 911857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ OOOOH!!! Angie! You are so right! I can't wait to go home and&nbsp;try it with that jacket.&nbsp;<br /><br />I'll definitely buy another lavender sweater. &nbsp;I'm bummed that the sweater doesn't feel right to me anymore because I love the color, so hearing that it is a good color for me is very helpful. &nbsp;I'm thinking that if I can find it in a lighter fabrication and slightly&nbsp;slouchier shape, I would be in love again. I'll put this in storage rather than donating it, since it didn't get a definite "you must donate" rating. &nbsp;Thanks Angie! I always appreciate your feedback. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-capris-oh-and-my-hunchback#post-911847 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 01:37:19 +0000 Angie 911847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Well don't you look stunning in lavender, Kathleen! My word. It suits you <b><i>as beautifully</i></b> as shades of blue. WOW! Your skin tone comes alive! If you're done with the sweater - remember to replace the colour.&nbsp;<br /><br />I'm so proud if you wearing your booties and skirt combo! I wonder whether your new black Tibi jacket would work over this great little outfit https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-capris-oh-and-my-hunchback#post-911833 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 01:23:15 +0000 Jan 911833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love both outfits and especially those black tights with boots! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-capris-oh-and-my-hunchback#post-911754 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 00:17:36 +0000 K. Period. 911754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ @Pil, thanks!&nbsp;I am&nbsp;definitely planning to wear it with my nude fishnets! All the better to show off my beloved booties. It was just a little cold today, so I defaulted to my tights. &nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-capris-oh-and-my-hunchback#post-911743 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 00:13:37 +0000 pil 911743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>K, I love the skirt and top in #3!<br /> I wonder how it would look with a nude stocking? You did say you wore it with a sweater, so maybe that balances the darker legs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-capris-oh-and-my-hunchback#post-911679 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 23:25:11 +0000 shedev 911679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'm loving outfit 2 and the pattern of those pants. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-capris-oh-and-my-hunchback#post-911669 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 23:18:33 +0000 K. Period. 911669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh, sadly Day Vies, that lilac sweater is styled. Just styled without love, which apparently really shows. &nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-capris-oh-and-my-hunchback#post-911657 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 23:09:58 +0000 catgirl 911657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Look how bee-you-ti-ful you are! &nbsp;Although I agree with you - can't stand stiff zippers in silk blouses. &nbsp;I just had a side zip&nbsp;surgically removed by my tailor. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-capris-oh-and-my-hunchback#post-911655 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 23:09:11 +0000 Day Vies 911655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ LOVE the black and white blouse with the cobalt skirt! Love that outfit! Yay! <br />OK no fair in pic #1 b/c you didn't bother to style your not so favorite lilac sweater.&nbsp;It looks so&nbsp;<i>sad</i> and <i>unloved</i> next to outfit #2 (which I am marking as a favorite) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-capris-oh-and-my-hunchback#post-911650 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 23:05:27 +0000 K. Period. 911650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Two WIWs:&nbsp;<br /><br />A pair of rule breaking capris. These are probably technically a bit too long, but they fit at the absolute longest bearable capri length for me, so I'm being rebellious and wearing them at maximum length. But with pointy flats. 'Cause I'm not that rebellious.&nbsp;<br /><br />I'm about done with my deep lilac v-neck sweater. &nbsp;The fit feels to fitted to be really current for me. &nbsp;However, wearing it with my bright purple shoes felt fun. The pants are navy and have a great texture that doesn't come through in the photo, so I added a pic of the fabric. &nbsp;<br /><br />Second WIW is WIW today. &nbsp;I loved my cobalt blue wool skirt from J Crew so much that I bought a summer cotton version of it. &nbsp;I added a black and white sleeveless shirt, but I have to fess up that&nbsp;I am wearing a cardi over it at work to keep warm. &nbsp;<br /><br />To modernize the outfit I wore my black booties, which you can barely see. &nbsp;I also grabbed (Angie, you would be so proud of me!) my metallic belt to wear. Unfortunately it was too big because this skirt sits so high on my waist. &nbsp;Hmmmm. &nbsp;Who knew I would need two metallic belts in my wardrobe?!?&nbsp;<br /><br />Just for laughs, I included my hunchback picture. &nbsp;Seriously, who thought it was a good idea to put a very long and very stiff zipper in the back of this shirt?!? I only spotted it in the mirror today, minutes after I had taken the tags off. &nbsp;Grrrrr. &nbsp;Luckily, upon inspection, it will be simple enough to remove the zipper entirely and sew up the seam. &nbsp;They didn't even need the zipper in the first place. *sigh*&nbsp;
