Still, I think you could wear the OTK beautifully, but either height looks fine on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-silk-shirt#post-449268 Fri, 21 Oct 2011 19:48:57 +0000 lyn67 449268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The boots are good for me, love them, so flaterring! You can wear them with skirts and dresses, too. I alos think the shirt is a tad too short for pants, I'd rather wear it tucked in or belted over skirts, but maybe it's just me(?).<br /> I think I miss "the 3rd piece" in this outfit. (Can you layer it with a longer waistcoat/sweatter,/jacket then will be OK with pants too) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-silk-shirt#post-449138 Fri, 21 Oct 2011 16:48:30 +0000 Scarlet 449138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The boots look good to me. I like the shirt a lot, but I think it is a tad too short to wear untucked like this. It would be wonderful for tucking or wearing with skirts. I think untucked under the jacket looks good, but I would like the shirt to be longer. Great color! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-silk-shirt#post-449080 Fri, 21 Oct 2011 15:57:53 +0000 rachylou 449080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The boots seem fine to me, because they fit closely to your calves. But I do bet you'd kick it in OTK ones. To be honest it's the shirt that seems a little short to me. Shirt peaking out is A-OK, even de rigeur, with a short jacket, and I'm feeling like I want to see just a tad MORE. It may be the curve of the shirt's hemline that's getting me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-silk-shirt#post-449014 Fri, 21 Oct 2011 14:40:50 +0000 Shu 449014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for your replies ladies. Sveta, my concern is actually the opposite, as crazy as that might sound: I'm concerned that I look like a giant galumphing around in too short boots because my legs are too long. I'll just try to quit worrying about it and try for taller ones next time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-silk-shirt#post-448866 Fri, 21 Oct 2011 03:24:07 +0000 sarah 448866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that this shirt looks great, and it's definitely OK to have shirts extend out from under jackets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-silk-shirt#post-448795 Fri, 21 Oct 2011 01:14:42 +0000 Sveta 448795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a classic button down and color is interesting. I would wear it with skirts though - or tucked into flares or wide legs: it is a bit short to wear with pants untucked IMO.<br /> Boots look good to me, you do not need them to be taller. If you keep them low contrast with the jeans / pants they should not shorten your legs at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-silk-shirt#post-448712 Thu, 20 Oct 2011 22:40:52 +0000 Lisa 448712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The boot height looks fine to me. I prefer when my shirts peek out from underneath the top layer, to see a bit more of the shirt. If the jacket were left open you'd see more green. (if it's not too cold outside of course) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-silk-shirt#post-448684 Thu, 20 Oct 2011 21:39:35 +0000 Shu 448684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It feels like it should go with a pencil skirt (I need to get one!), or other more dressy bottom. I like the shirt, so I'm trying to see if wearing it more casually works - then I can wear it more often. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-silk-shirt#post-448683 Thu, 20 Oct 2011 21:37:43 +0000 Anonymous 448683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh and FWIW, I think the boots look fine. I don't have a pair of tall ones, so you might want to do a search and see if Angie has any height guidelines. She is usually telling people not to wear them too tall, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-silk-shirt#post-448682 Thu, 20 Oct 2011 21:36:19 +0000 Anonymous 448682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shirt peeking out is absolutely ok! What bothers you about the shirt? The color, the cut, the shape of the hemline or collar? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-silk-shirt#post-448678 Thu, 20 Oct 2011 21:30:22 +0000 Shu 448678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all,</p> <p>I haven't worn this shirt in about 5 years, but thought I'd try it today. Is it working? I feel like it needs something. Also, jacket exposing bottom of shirt: faux pas? Oh, and I got positive feedback about these boots with jeans, but I still feel like I'd like some OTK boots to make me feel more balanced - um, and maybe just to *reach* my knee - its so hard to find boots that are long enough for my legs, these feel a little dorky because they don't come up high enough, but I gave up. </p>
