And I don't see volume-on-volume so much as flattering-on-flattering. No extra pounds to be seen at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-feeling-blue-2#post-1198669 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 03:05:00 +0000 shiny 1198669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet, I totally understand what you mean, as I said elsewhere, this is first light-wash jean I've bought in 20-25 years.&nbsp;I encourage you to try these jeans. I suspect you'd look amazing in them. I really like them myself, but keep thinking how someone taller etc here would look even better in them than I do. I have a hunch here--- &nbsp;you should try them!</p> <p>I'd love to see them on April too. The 9 inch rise.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-feeling-blue-2#post-1198648 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 02:38:09 +0000 Janet 1198648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great sweater, and you look fantastic! Your hair looks really nice too.</p> <p>I love the wash on those jeans too. I cannot find a pair of jeans with that kind of wash that look good on me to save my life. It's like the universe is telling me to stick with dark washes, sigh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-feeling-blue-2#post-1198645 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 02:31:33 +0000 Gigi 1198645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks great, Shiny! The top has just enough volume in it, imo...it has the fluid look without being overly baggy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-feeling-blue-2#post-1198559 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 00:03:16 +0000 shiny 1198559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I appreciate all your positive feedback, and hope you don't mind me singling out Annagybe's boost&nbsp;in particular, because Anna, you always dress with such awesome casual&nbsp;style that I admire but find myself saying "I could never pull that off myself." So I consider it *quite* an honor you approve of my jeans! In fact, this is the first light wash jeans I've owned in ... oh... 20-25 years??? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-feeling-blue-2#post-1198543 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 23:22:07 +0000 adorkable 1198543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the scarf, love the sweater, love them together.

This is a 2014 look. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-feeling-blue-2#post-1198441 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 20:56:50 +0000 Inge 1198441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fit and proportions are perfect to my eye. Love the entire outfit with all the different blues (sounds like your scarf works really well with your puffer), and the animal print back is a great finishing touch. Your hair is fab too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-feeling-blue-2#post-1198431 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 20:24:57 +0000 amiable 1198431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow you rock this outfit!

And, I love the sweater.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-feeling-blue-2#post-1198426 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 20:14:57 +0000 shiny 1198426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My outfit today. I am WFH today, but I slipped out over lunch&nbsp;to get my hair done (desperately needed) and then made a&nbsp;quick stop&nbsp;to check out some jeans. Though I am pretty much all set there now.....hmmm.... Okay, truthfully, I popped in the store so I could deliberately photograph my outfit for you fabulous forum dwellers. :-)</p> <p>Vince ombre cashmere sweater&nbsp;<br />7's Kimmie jeans&nbsp;<br />Impo blue suede booties<br />MK snake skin hobo<br />Scarf I bought last spring, forget where.&nbsp;</p> <p>Style notes... the Jeans first:</p> <p>These jeans are SUPER comfy. They have a lot of stretch but magically bounce back and you can feel them bounce back with every step. I am all about how things feel, not just how they look. These are 9 inch rise. I did not try these in any other size, they are 27 so for me they're "sized up." Maybe they are supposed to be more fitted but I was aiming for a relaxed look.&nbsp;Did not roll them because it was too cold, but they do roll/cuff quite nicely and look cute that way too.&nbsp;</p> <p>The sweater: soooo incredibly cozy! I can't wait to wear this with white jeans soon. Also works with dark wash jeans. And will work with the new skirt too. What I love about this sweater is that it works great for work AND casual, all depends on how i style it. I can wear it with skinnies but today I was aiming for a comfy, volume-on-volume look. Looking at the pics, I suppose it adds pounds and I certainly have more flattering outfits, but I wanted to play with the baggy/oversized look and see if I could get the proportions right., not easy when you're only 5'0!&nbsp;&nbsp;What do you all think?&nbsp;</p> <p>Not shown, I wore the Bernardo metallic puffer over this, it is a blush shade of metallic (see other WiW's). I was trying to figure out what scarf would work -- to contrast with all the blue -- I settled on this scarf primarily because it has some pastel shades in it that seemed to work well with the puffer.&nbsp;</p> <p>Handbag &amp; booties:&nbsp;am not quite yet ready to break out the optic white handbag, the blush handbag is too matchy / matchy for the puffer, so I settled on the snake skin, which then dictated blue suede booties as the obvious choice. When it gets warmer I could do white or blush bag, with snakeskin flat booties.&nbsp;</p> <p>New haircut: Is VERY blonde... because she used a clear glaze. It'll tone down in a few days.&nbsp;</p>
