I hadn't bought of that Joy. How interesting. Great question that I will have to think about. </p> <p>It might also b that the widest part of me is where the seams of the sleeves are which are also where my bustling is.</p> <p>I also just realized that I rolled one leg of the jeans to see which way you all thought I should go. But I was so disappointed over the look when I saw the photo that I forgot to ask! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-to-play-football#post-1357203 Wed, 17 Sep 2014 03:27:19 +0000 Anonymous 1357203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look beautiful! I love this outfit and don't see linebacker at all. Is this the first time in awhile that you have worn long sleeves so that your eye may need to adjust? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-to-play-football#post-1357166 Wed, 17 Sep 2014 02:46:11 +0000 Angie_T 1357166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for the suggestions. </p> <p>Ummila - are you thinking I should tuck the bottom layer?&nbsp; I do agree that it's the width under the arm. Maybe I should have gone down a size. </p> <p>Shevia -&nbsp; I will try the scrunch, although the sleeves are sheer, so they didn't seem to want to hold a scrunch!</p> <p><i></i>I'm not doing well this week on my outfits, yall! But I'm learning a little something every day. </p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-to-play-football#post-1357139 Wed, 17 Sep 2014 02:16:38 +0000 Jaime 1357139@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the top and&nbsp;do see linebacker at all! I would try to pull up/scrunch the sleeves. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-to-play-football#post-1356938 Tue, 16 Sep 2014 22:07:32 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1356938@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think it's bad, but the width under the arm is what's creating the wide impression. I think it might be even better with some judicious tucking and the sleeves pulled up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-to-play-football#post-1356928 Tue, 16 Sep 2014 21:56:46 +0000 Angie_T 1356928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say "not to play football" because I am looking like a middle linebacker here.&nbsp; Not sure why this look makes me seem so broad.&nbsp; I got this top at NAS and this is the first time I've worn it. When it first arrived, I tried it on and didn't think it looked bad.&nbsp; Not sure what's not working here.&nbsp; </p> <p>Any thoughts? </p>
