What about trying a slightly looser sweater, maybe with a dipped hemline at the back. You could get a fun belt too and dip a toe into semi-tucking to show it off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-date-night-4#post-1242164 Mon, 05 May 2014 04:58:36 +0000 gardenchick 1242164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Catnip and Rabbit -- thank you! Would love to see pictures of the kinds of tops you mean. I definitely could use some new ideas about what kinds of tops would work for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-date-night-4#post-1242158 Mon, 05 May 2014 04:48:36 +0000 rabbit 1242158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I echo what <b>Catnip </b>says about longer and looser tops as something to experiment with if you want to try something different, although the color and fit of this cardigan look good on you. :)</p> <p>I have gray skinny cords (two pairs actually) and they do stretch out much more than denim with time in my experience. &nbsp;I wear them with gray/taupe booties or suede taupe tall&nbsp;boots&nbsp;when I'm going for a tonal/leg lengthening look and with black flat combat type&nbsp;booties with them rolled or tucked&nbsp;when I'm going for more of a military look. &nbsp;I think I also wear them with silver flats sometimes? &nbsp;Depending how they work with the top. &nbsp; Your pair looks great.</p> <p>Hope you had a fun night! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-date-night-4#post-1242130 Mon, 05 May 2014 03:28:07 +0000 Catnip 1242130@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the gray cords look great on you, perfect in fact.&nbsp; Turquoise (or is it jade) and lavender are both very flattering.&nbsp; I'm also short waisted and have trouble with tops.&nbsp; I just bought a much longer top that I haven't posted yet.&nbsp; In fact, I haven't cut the tags off.&nbsp; It's both long and slightly lose (it's not a knit).&nbsp; It's different from what I usually wear,&nbsp;so adjusting to it is difficult, but I'm hoping I've just discovered a new and flattering style for my short waisted self.&nbsp; Perhaps something like that could work for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-date-night-4#post-1241967 Mon, 05 May 2014 00:41:33 +0000 gardenchick 1241967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you everyone for these kind comments, which made me smile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-date-night-4#post-1241779 Sun, 04 May 2014 21:14:32 +0000 Sara L. 1241779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the green top with the grey pants and the statement necklace. &nbsp;Great date night outfit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-date-night-4#post-1241771 Sun, 04 May 2014 21:07:20 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1241771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the colors of both tops on you, very flattering. I have noticed that with Ann Taylor on occasion - the fit varies between different fabrics even if they're supposed to be the same cut. Guess that's just what happens sometimes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-date-night-4#post-1241546 Sun, 04 May 2014 16:57:08 +0000 rachylou 1241546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the grey cords. They remind me of my grey jeggings, which I love to wear. You look ready for a date: Able to walk a mile? Check. Simple and understandable? Check. Still cute? Check </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-date-night-4#post-1241501 Sun, 04 May 2014 16:01:59 +0000 Karina 1241501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do love the grey cords as well, I used to have some and wore them out. Maybe it's time for a replacement! Very versatile pants and they look great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-date-night-4#post-1241489 Sun, 04 May 2014 15:54:07 +0000 gardenchick 1241489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone for the kind words.</p> <p>In terms of the size--Maybe corduroy just stretches more than denim. Or perhaps the pants are cut differently. Funny.</p> <p>In terms of these "fall" colors and fabrics --we get cool nights and little hot summer weather here in the Bay Area...so this is probably a year round outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-date-night-4#post-1241413 Sun, 04 May 2014 14:18:38 +0000 Kristin L 1241413@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the jade and gray combination. And it's amazing how one size fits in one thing, but not in the other. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-date-night-4#post-1241407 Sun, 04 May 2014 14:13:23 +0000 jackiec 1241407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fantastic colour combo!! I do find that the fit between different fabrications is often different - especially with cords. I think corduroy is more stretchy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-date-night-4#post-1241346 Sun, 04 May 2014 08:23:10 +0000 Kiwichik 1241346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy date night. Grey is a great neutral and works well with so many other colours. I see what you mean about the other pair of pants being too small - maybe they were mislabeled. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-date-night-4#post-1241303 Sun, 04 May 2014 06:40:52 +0000 fuzzylogic 1241303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the jade top with the grey jeans! And the burgundy handbag works with the jade! Lovely 'autumn colours'!</p> <p>Hope you enjoyed each other's company! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-date-night-4#post-1241295 Sun, 04 May 2014 04:40:23 +0000 gardenchick 1241295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's my outfit for a fun date night with my guy.<br /> The cords are Ann Taylor modern fit.<br /> I like the grey cords. As I look at the picture, the top could be a little longer--would be more flattering if it hit a tiny bit lower. Between having narrow shoulders, being busty, and short waisted, it's challenging to find tops that fit right!<br /> Would be interested in other suggestions for how to style these pants.<br /> The funny thing is that the grey cords are the same size and fit as the jeans (#4) that feel too tight, that I'm planning to return.<br /> Thanks for looking! </p>
