In some outfits (coats, or tops with slightly puffy sleeves) I feel I look too IT-like when I stand really close to the mirror, but then when I back off to a few metres away, it looks more balanced. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077789 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 15:19:34 +0000 donnat 1077789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is very nice sillouette on you. It is a little plain but thats ok. How does it look with a necklace? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077740 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 14:34:10 +0000 anne 1077740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks guys!<br /> Joy when I dressed after going to the gym at lunch I did indeed roll the sleeves. They were too fitted to scrunch. And I am not really an IT. I am a pear with strong shoulders. Just looked shoulder heavy because of the<br /> white sleeves </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077678 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 13:34:48 +0000 Anonymous 1077678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great. Sometimes it works to embrace your IT-ness and flaunt it. I was going to suggest a long pendant if you want to break up the horizontal line, but you tried that. If you don't like to scrunch sleeves, does rolling them work? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077673 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 13:27:27 +0000 Alecia 1077673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this is a great look for you. I like layering under sheathes, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077671 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 13:25:42 +0000 Alassë 1077671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No, not too IT. You look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077599 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 12:07:51 +0000 anne 1077599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Diane and Debra. I had planned to change into different shoes at work - my cobalt sandals that I am wearing in my wearing at work. I walk about 1km as part of my commute so need sensible shoes. But I forgot to put the sandals on at all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077597 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 11:52:23 +0000 Anonymous 1077597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it! Not too IT at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077563 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 09:29:44 +0000 Debra 1077563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the shape on you. I don't think the shoulders are an issue at all and I don't mind the longer sleeves. I think it all looks intentional and modern.<br /> My only suggestion would be maybe a pointy flat instead of a round toe </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077561 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 09:22:40 +0000 Lyn D. 1077561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks lovely Anne!<br />I like a strong shoulder line, and when you add a topper it is softer anyway. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077439 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 04:40:59 +0000 anne 1077439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are so right Marley. They are a little long. I don't usually like the feeling of scrunching (though I like the look) but I'll have a try! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077428 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 04:28:20 +0000 Marley 1077428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The shade of gray is just lovely on you and I don't think you look too IT at all!&nbsp; Do the sleeves on the blouse feel OK on you?&nbsp; They look just a little bit too long - but, if I were you I would just scrunch up the sleeves so it wouldn't matter! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077414 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 04:09:53 +0000 catgirl 1077414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not at all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077413 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 04:09:06 +0000 anne 1077413@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks BJ.&nbsp; Maybe it's ok to go with the nurse vibe! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077279 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 01:50:10 +0000 bj1111 1077279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>it doesn't overemphasize your shoulders. &nbsp;i like the silhouette. &nbsp;tho, the whole outfit reminds me of a nurse's uniform. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077236 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 01:22:31 +0000 anne 1077236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks K and Amy. The outfit feel comfortable and I generally feel happy in it.</p> <p>I think the IT concerns may have been because I saw myself in the mirror above thbathroom and not the whole view.</p> <p>I felt it the outfit as a whole was a bit plain, and tried a long necklace with it, but it didn't feel right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077218 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 01:05:03 +0000 minimalist 1077218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The flare of the skirt hem balances the width of the shoulders, IMO.</p> <p>Your shoulders do look square, but is that a bad thing?</p> <p>How does the outfit feel, overall? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077217 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 01:04:52 +0000 K. Period. 1077217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think so at all! The shape of the bottom of the dress balances it nicely. Very cute!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-is-it-too-it#post-1077197 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 00:45:09 +0000 anne 1077197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have wanted to try this combo for ages. In the mirror it made my shoulders very prominant. I hadn't put my lipstick on yet.<br /> comments and suggestions welcome </p>
