Well I think you made the right final decision. This is a beautiful outfit with great fluidity, color combo and pattern. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1102090 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 15:39:27 +0000 dustt 1102090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>really good call - the longer bottoms shorter top is a great look on you and that little pop of cobalt on the sandal is really fun.&nbsp; I'm also coveting that white watch!! Nice touch!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1102085 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 15:34:16 +0000 Sveta 1102085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that proportions are better in #2.<br />I think you need a skinnies pants that those straight legs for rolling the cuff. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1102033 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 14:10:05 +0000 TraceyLiz65 1102033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good call on changing the proportions and I love the pop of cobalt shoe!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1102019 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 13:44:52 +0000 JG 1102019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's helpful for me to see that the perfect looks you post don't magically appear when you open your closet. Yes, you know your style and buy interesting, well-made clothes that convey it. But the shopping is just the beginning, isn't it? Thanks for showing us your process. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1102008 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 13:12:05 +0000 Suz 1102008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You made the right call! It definitely looks better with the pants unrolled, though as Penny says, it's sad to miss those shoes! But they will get another outing. And when you were sitting people would have seen more of them, which is also a nice detail.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1101993 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 11:34:53 +0000 Lantana 1101993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I do see and I think you are very clever. The second styling shows off the shoes better though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1101979 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 09:18:38 +0000 DizzyLizzy 1101979@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this lesson in proportions. I know that when I don't get the proportions right (I think I'm about the same height - I'm 5'1") I feel really frumpy. It makes me realise that little adjustments can make a big difference to how you feel, not just how you look. </p> <p>You look much taller in #1 with the legs unrolled. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1101968 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 08:23:06 +0000 Adelfa 1101968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It always amazes me the last minute micro-adjustments that seem to be necessary to make an outfit just right! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1101964 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 08:07:04 +0000 Lyn D. 1101964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do prefer the pants unrolled here but both looked good!<br />It is hard to dress when you know it will be hot by the end of the day, and probably cold again by tomorrow night! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1101945 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 06:53:17 +0000 Deborah 1101945@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beth Ann, busted! Yes that is correct about the rise. I am making do at the moment as I can't find a really good replacement for these pants. Normally I manage the tuck but I can see its a bit off :(</p> <p>And Jesus had something! There is much to be said for developing a signature look or uniform:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1101934 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 04:59:28 +0000 rachylou 1101934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think #1 was indeed better. Great top and vest! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1101931 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 04:56:44 +0000 Beth Ann 1101931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer #2.&nbsp; In the pic, the rise on the pants seems a bit high for a messy tuck -- could just be the angle of the photo.&nbsp; I love the feminine print in the strong, modern silhouette!</p> <p>Some days are more decisive than others!&nbsp; This is when you say:&nbsp; "This is why Jesus wore the same robe every day!" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1101925 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 04:40:57 +0000 peacechick 1101925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think both work but #1 looks more polished while #2 is more casual. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1101924 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 04:40:54 +0000 deb 1101924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good job. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1101923 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 04:33:07 +0000 MuseumGal 1101923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they both look good.&nbsp; I actually really like the rolled pants to show off your awesome sandals. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1101915 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 04:04:41 +0000 carter 1101915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep. I agree the proportions are better in #1. Very pretty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-evolution-of-an-outfit-1#post-1101902 Sun, 01 Dec 2013 03:49:59 +0000 Deborah 1101902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Sunday Ladies!</p> <p>I was seriously lacking inspiration this morning and in truth, I didn't feel like getting dressed:( And for the first time in ages, I changed quite a few times before I headed of to church.</p> <p>#1 is what I wore to church, and #2 is how the outfit started.</p> <p>#2 just wasn't working to my eye and as I considered changing yet again, I decided to reverse the proportions. Long on the bottom, (unrolled the pants) and short on top (messy tuck the blouse).</p> <p>What do yo think? This worked much better to my eye and it felt, and I hope, looked good.</p> <p>Do you see what I see? Thanks for looking.</p> <p>xxx Deborah </p>
