But looking at the photo, I think part of what makes it work is the 3/4 sleeves on the cardi. You have suggested scrunching my sleeves sometimes, and I imagine how much less I would like this outfit with long sleeves. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-speaking-of-brown#post-1307736 Sat, 19 Jul 2014 03:22:48 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1307736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Peri, I'm laughing. But seriously you are right--these pants would be perfect for you. The pattern designer said once in a class that she does not like her pants touching her anywhere--she likes them to hang nicely from the waist or hips. So her designs are right up your alley.<br />And I didn't realize you live in the South! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-speaking-of-brown#post-1307313 Fri, 18 Jul 2014 18:57:26 +0000 Peri 1307313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wish you were my best friend. Don't you want to move down south? It's lovely and sauna-like down here and you could make me those pants. Which I would have to wait until November to wear but then I would really like them! :)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-speaking-of-brown#post-1307260 Fri, 18 Jul 2014 18:03:11 +0000 MsMary 1307260@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*plonk*</p> <p>This is amazing!&nbsp; LOVE!!&nbsp; That tank is just killing me... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-speaking-of-brown#post-1307253 Fri, 18 Jul 2014 17:56:10 +0000 Suz 1307253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look beautiful in browns (and taupe). I think this works well. You appear to be tall and can carry the volume on volume.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-speaking-of-brown#post-1307208 Fri, 18 Jul 2014 17:22:52 +0000 columbine(erin) 1307208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the lovely soft coloring and the proportions very much.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-speaking-of-brown#post-1307044 Fri, 18 Jul 2014 13:38:16 +0000 Alexandra 1307044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like how it looks - the colors and the proportions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-speaking-of-brown#post-1307021 Fri, 18 Jul 2014 13:14:10 +0000 Neel 1307021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think its perfect.

Looks lovely and I also like the proportions of the long sweater. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-speaking-of-brown#post-1307001 Fri, 18 Jul 2014 12:33:31 +0000 Alana in Canada 1307001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Personally, I love the proportions of this sweater with the the top. You look lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-speaking-of-brown#post-1306970 Fri, 18 Jul 2014 11:32:06 +0000 rute 1306970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely! I love brown </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-speaking-of-brown#post-1306898 Fri, 18 Jul 2014 04:37:22 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1306898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie's post on brown might have influenced what I wore today. I had on the brown and white print tank top with my new white boyfriend jeans (Kut from the Kloth, Catherine), but changed into brown pants for work this evening. I didn't get a shot of the jeans outfit, but I took the other one this evening after work. </p> <p>The outfit:<br />Dark brown wide-leg ponte knit pants with long cargo pockets on the sides (you can't really see them--sorry!--but you can kind of see the poof of the cargo pocket outline on the outer leg)(made by me); brown and white paisley print high-low tank with brown mesh knit trim at the bottom, neck, and armholes (made by me); taupe linen blend sweater (Nic &amp; Zoe); metallic cut-out peep-toe booties (Paul Green); brown metal teardrop hoop dangle earrings. </p> <p>I had been wearing a tan cotton Halogen jacket with my jeans outfit, but I wasn't too crazy about the tank and jacket with the pants. I tried a white v-neck cardigan with long pointed fronts, then an oatmeal 3/4 sleeve round-neck cardigan, both of which let the tank hang out below. Then thought of my long taupe cardi, which covers the tank. I was happy with how it looked; what do you think? </p> <p>Thanks for looking! Thoughts and suggestions welcome! </p>
