You are right on trend with the peach brown and blue tones (see recent blog posting)! And you look great in this palette! I don't see the satchel as too big for you in these pics. I love the detail! Overall: relaxed yet put together. Winner!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-rust-denim-and-new-bag#post-1141443 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 06:59:18 +0000 jelo 1141443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Laura, I think you right, the jeans are a bit long. I've been meaning to get around to shortening them but I don't have the right colour thread. Maybe they'd look better cuffed until I get around to doing it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-rust-denim-and-new-bag#post-1141433 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 06:12:13 +0000 Deborah 1141433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great first WIW!

The pants seem a little long but that's my only quibble. Great idea to shoot a side view, I should really do that myself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-rust-denim-and-new-bag#post-1141183 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 00:45:51 +0000 claire 1141183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great, I love the peachy colors with your hair.

I love how the buttons on the jacket even echo the peach tones. I think the bag is a good size for you too--not too big at all.&nbsp;&nbsp;You look terrific. Athletic and fit and stylish!

The rust tones&nbsp;are very flattering on you&nbsp;and I love the look with the&nbsp;denim jacket as a topper. You have a great figure and I envy your strong shoulder line - not linebackerish at all.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-rust-denim-and-new-bag#post-1140671 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 14:19:39 +0000 viva 1140671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the heeled shoes with these pants-- the long pant legs and the heels make your legs go on forever! And I don't see linebacker with your shoulders in the jacket -- I think the cut works well and the blue is great with all the rust and peach tones. Fantastic! <br />As others have said, you might be happily surprised how WIWs help you with your picture taking comfort. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-rust-denim-and-new-bag#post-1140664 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 14:15:45 +0000 lyn67 1140664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have a fab strong shoulder line and the&nbsp;denim jacket fits quite well. I don't see any linebacker!???!!&nbsp; I just see a well put&nbsp;together outfit, love the peaches with your complexion! I would have been so curious&nbsp;to see&nbsp;your 'athletic'&nbsp;thighs when wearing &nbsp;the flats, as now they look very &nbsp;proportional!:-) Besides all, you have a great fgure and hair, oh-and &nbsp;Welcome! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-rust-denim-and-new-bag#post-1140657 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 14:06:18 +0000 E 1140657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love those colours on you! So beautiful &amp; flattering. The jacket looks good; I feel self conscious about my shoulders sometimes too (in fact, linebacker is exactly the word I use to describe how I look in a strapless dress), so I understand.&nbsp;But looking at them, they look the same width as your hips, giving you a quite balanced figure, definitely not linebacker-esque. The bag is very fun and doesn't look too big to me; I'm 5'3" also and my 2 bags are at least this size, if not a bit larger. Of course, maybe I'm just wearing them too big for my frame! hehe</p> <p>Welcome to WIWs: it's fascinating how much you'll learn about yourself from doing them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-rust-denim-and-new-bag#post-1140641 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 13:48:14 +0000 Suz 1140641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome! You look wonderful in these peachy tones with the blue. Very cohesive and pulled together. I see a casual style with a boho flair!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-rust-denim-and-new-bag#post-1140628 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 13:32:32 +0000 Anonymous 1140628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These peachy warm tones look super on you. And I see gorgeous legs! Welcome to posting WIWs! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-rust-denim-and-new-bag#post-1140626 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 13:29:51 +0000 Anonymous 1140626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome! The colors you chose look wonderful with your warm, delicate coloring. And I don't see any linebacker shoulders or "athletic" thighs&nbsp;at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-rust-denim-and-new-bag#post-1140624 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 13:27:20 +0000 Neel 1140624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome! Your first WIW is brilliant! Love the warm color pallette! And your thighs and shoulders look normal to me :). I struggled with taking photos too and how weird I looked in them! So I understand where you are coming from! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-rust-denim-and-new-bag#post-1140561 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 11:50:46 +0000 Anonymous 1140561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh I love the peachy tones, they're fab! I think your shoulders are absolutely fine and I rather like the way straighter shoulders make jackets hang rather well, as yours does. I do have a preference for the higher boots and you've got the jeans scrunch spot on for PPP. Bag size looks good too. Congrats on your first wiw! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-rust-denim-and-new-bag#post-1140557 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 11:19:45 +0000 Anonymous 1140557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations on your first WIW. It gets easier, but you look terrific! The pale rust is a gorgeous color on you. The blue of the jacket is striking with the rust and another beautiful color on you.<br /> The bag size is a bit big but that seems to be the style. It looks fine to my eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-rust-denim-and-new-bag#post-1140552 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 11:04:57 +0000 jelo 1140552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is my first WIW so excuse the facial expressions, I've always detested having my photo taken.</p> <p>Pale rust straight jeans, with a darker jumper (sweater), denim jacket and my new bag. </p> <p>I started out with flats but after I taken a photo I realised how they emphasised my 'athletic' thighs (sigh). </p> <p>I'm a bit worried that the jacket (in fact any jacket really) makes me look like a linebacker, my shoulders are so, so, square.</p> <p>I love my new bag but I wonder if the scale is a little big for my small frame (I'm 5'3).</p> <p>Any comments welcome. </p>
