No, the pics are from two different days. The print on today's shirt is indeed an abstract sort of floral print. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978992 Sat, 13 Jul 2013 03:13:09 +0000 ironkurtin 978992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm confused, is that the same top in both pics?&nbsp; Am I crazy, or does the larger pic look floral? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978949 Sat, 13 Jul 2013 02:42:24 +0000 Lisa 978949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the BR halter neck colorblock tank and that neat oriental printed peplum top Inge linked to.</p> <p>Nice save of a wardrobe orphan.&nbsp; I find sometimes I just need a break from an item, and then I start to enjoy it all over again.&nbsp; My green blazer was a workhorse last year and has sat most of this spring and summer until the past two weeks.&nbsp; Now it's been dusted off and worn three times already.&nbsp; I just needed to refresh how I styled it. </p> <p>And neat work shot.&nbsp; I don't know what ANY of that stuff behind you is but it sure looks like a lot of dials. :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978673 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 21:39:57 +0000 Inge 978673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My pleasure!-)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978672 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 21:39:14 +0000 Janet 978672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Inge, you are the best! So thoughtful of you! I'm going to check out those links when I'm off the air. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978671 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 21:37:20 +0000 Inge 978671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a waistline!-)&nbsp;Perhaps it's not the most "Janet 2013" print, but I think it's a sweet look with the contrast of the BF jeans. And so fab to see a pic of you on the job!</p> <p>Also: I think you look just as fantastic in waist surrendering tops as you do in more formfitting styles, but completely get that you want to define that fab waist of yours from time to time.</p> <p>I had a quick look around and found some tops. I know that not all of them look super fashion forward on their own, but as usual, it also depends on how you style them. And with your modern hairstyle, fantastic footwear and modern and more rock 'n' roll items, these will get a completely different vibe altogether.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/shirtsandtops/sleeveless/PRDOVR~66963/99103045504/ENE~1+2+3+22+4294967294+20~15~~20+17+4294966973~15~~~~~~~/66963.jsp?srcCode=AFFI00001&amp;siteId=J84DHJLQkR4-966g5JVRbceB7%2FOpkg%2Ay7w">http://www.jcrew.com/womens_ca.....~1+2+3+22+</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=70160&amp;vid=1&amp;pid=560714002">http://bananarepublic.gap.com/.....=560714002</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.zara.com/be/en/woman/t-shirts/t-shirt-with-a-cut-work-design-c436434p1129146.html">http://www.zara.com/be/en/woma.....29146.html</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.anntaylor.com/floral-embroidered-peplum-top/313727?colorExplode=false&amp;skuId=13896379&amp;catid=cata000010&amp;productPageType=fullPriceProducts&amp;defaultColor=1623">http://www.anntaylor.com/flora.....&#038;cati</a></p> <p>(the 2 embroidered tops above kind of have a tonal Oriental vibe going on, I know that was something you were loving earlier this year)</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/edista-lori-top/3534014?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;contextualcategoryid=0&amp;fashionColor=&amp;resultback=1023&amp;cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-browseresults-_-1_4_C">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/ed.....xtualcateg</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/vince-camuto-ruched-boatneck-top/3442863?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;contextualcategoryid=0&amp;fashionColor=BLACK+PRINT&amp;resultback=3982&amp;cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-browseresults-_-2_13_A">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/vi.....nalizedsor</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/edista-ellisa-tee/3533508?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;contextualcategoryid=0&amp;fashionColor=&amp;resultback=810&amp;cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-browseresults-_-3_5_D">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/ed.....textualcat</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/trina-turk-new-high-tee/3549154?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;contextualcategoryid=0&amp;fashionColor=PIPING+HOT%2F+ORCHID&amp;resultback=1917&amp;cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-browseresults-_-3_8_D">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/tr.....38;context</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/edista-caressa-tee/3533510?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;contextualcategoryid=0&amp;fashionColor=&amp;resultback=3343&amp;cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-browseresults-_-3_12_A">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/ed.....ntextualca</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/edista-dash-tee/3533509?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;contextualcategoryid=0&amp;fashionColor=&amp;resultback=4553&amp;cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-browseresults-_-3_15_B">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/ed.....xtualcateg</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/vince-camuto-lace-top/3443105?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;contextualcategoryid=0&amp;fashionColor=NEW+IVORY&amp;resultback=5515&amp;cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-browseresults-_-5_18_A">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/vi.....;contextua</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978665 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 21:28:34 +0000 Janet 978665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, all!

Multi-talented! Your top isn't the rock and roll you like, but I like it and the way you have styled it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978471 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 18:27:35 +0000 CocoLion 978471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I'm also just sick of the super oversized look. &nbsp;Even though it's really on trend. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978466 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 18:25:24 +0000 Suz 978466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The radio show! I didn't know you did that, too! Cool.&nbsp;</p> <p>With the BFs, the top feels fresh. Like something you'd wear for a day at the cottage, maybe. It might not be the most current, but it is flattering.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978460 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 18:15:00 +0000 CocoLion 978460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it, I think it looks modern and flattering. &nbsp;I have started to go back to, at least more tailored tops than wearing exclusively oversized tops (which has been my habit for the past few years). &nbsp;My boyfriend hates seeing me in oversized tops! &nbsp;He doesn't get why I would "hide the goods." &nbsp;;-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978455 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 18:12:52 +0000 annagybe 978455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's not that it's fitted. For me it's more the ruching with asymmetric center seam. &nbsp;I just trolled through Shopbop and net-a-porter to find a new modern fitted shirt and came up woefully short. Sorry. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978442 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 18:00:31 +0000 Kristin L 978442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The top looks great with your jeans and Sperrys.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978419 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 17:40:02 +0000 Janet 978419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I forgot to add for Carole, maybe you can! We are online streaming at wtmd.org. I'm on from 3-7 eastern time. Just filling in for a few days this week.

I thought I'd give it a wear today and see how it feels.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sadly, it seems "fitted" tops in general just don't seem current, and they tend to be the most flattering thing on me. Ah well, I'll enjoy the trend when it comes back around.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978407 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 17:26:21 +0000 annagybe 978407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The top is nice, but doesn't quite read as current for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978397 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 17:15:40 +0000 donnat 978397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good save!

Thanks for bonus pic too. Your eyes are so pretty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978389 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 17:03:00 +0000 Karie 978389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am in love with the BF look lately and I love the way you've done it here! The Sperry's are fab too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casually-saving-an-orphan#post-978375 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 16:52:58 +0000 Carole 978375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You make me want BF's bad...super cute way to rescue your top!

So casual is key. I can actually tolerate jeans today because its rainy and not so hot -- yay! </p> <p>This Weston Wear knit top has languished a bit in favor of looser woven summer tops, but pairing the Gap BFs and my rose gold Sperrys helps bring it a bit more up to date,I hope. I'm not wearing this kind of print so often anymore. What do you think? </p> <p>Bonus pic of me on the air yesterday. </p>
