I second the suggestion to try wearing a necklace or a scarf with the ends hanging down, to give the eye a vertical element to grab on to so the widening of the shoulders is minimized. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-weird-sweater#post-1075997 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 00:54:43 +0000 Windchime 1075997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll add my voice to the chorus telling you how great cobalt looks on you. </p> <p>The white layering blouse calls attention toward your neck and away from your shoulders. It sounds like you feel better wearing the sweater styled in this way.</p> <p>I'd like to see it with your black ankle crops sometime. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-weird-sweater#post-1075984 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 00:42:08 +0000 K. Period. 1075984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First, I have to tell you that&nbsp;I think you've done a phenomenal job with this sweater. &nbsp;I have disproportionately broad shoulders and a full (enough) chest, so I know exactly what you mean about this shape. &nbsp;The dolman sleeves, the slash neck, they are hard on us ITs! &nbsp;However, you look lovely in this combo. The shirt does break it up and add a strong line to it. &nbsp;Very pretty!&nbsp;</p> <p>What about adding a long necklace to it too? Something like a tassel that has weight to the bottom of it?&nbsp;</p> <p>I also know why the tapered slim pants can be a challenge. They may look great, but it isn't guaranteed! Does the sweater sit up high enough that it can sit above your hip line? &nbsp;Since I don't have a strong, curvy hip, if I don't get the sweater above the broadest part of my hip, this shape doesn't work for me. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-weird-sweater#post-1075972 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 00:33:54 +0000 Emily 1075972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The two tops look cool together.&nbsp; The shape is&nbsp;interesting and the blue colour is really lovely on you. &nbsp;I think the wide-legged pants look great, too. &nbsp;Have you tried a necklace or scarf? &nbsp;A vertical element on top might lend a bit of definition to your dolman sweater. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-weird-sweater#post-1075960 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 00:19:26 +0000 El Cee 1075960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First of all, the cobalt color is beautiful on you. I do not think this gives you a "massive shoulder"... strong shoulder line, yes, but I very much like that look. Agreeing with Amy that this is an overall&nbsp;"volume on volume" look, but you carry it well. I like the pop of crisp white peeking out from under the sweater. I think you look very chic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-weird-sweater#post-1075535 Tue, 05 Nov 2013 18:18:21 +0000 AnnieMouse 1075535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The sweater puts me in the mind of the round-shouldered sweaters Angie posted from the fashion week shows. I like it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-weird-sweater#post-1075379 Tue, 05 Nov 2013 16:40:46 +0000 Amy 1075379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the outfit a lot, Von. It may not be the most slimming combination for photos, but volume on volume looks like this tend to look a lot better in real life where you're moving about and the drape and movement of the fabric. can be appreciated. I think it's elegant!</p> <p>I could really use a sweater like that...I have narrow shoulders so am always looking for a way to make them seem broader. I'm making a mental note to look out for something cut like yours. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-weird-sweater#post-1075370 Tue, 05 Nov 2013 16:33:27 +0000 carter 1075370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the tops together too, but I think you're right...volume on top really calls for slim on the bottom.&nbsp; Looks cute though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-weird-sweater#post-1075331 Tue, 05 Nov 2013 16:02:37 +0000 Von 1075331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When I bought this sweater, I thought it was great, but as time goes on, I'm starting to wear it less and less.&nbsp; I think it's the odd neckline combined with the fitted waist.&nbsp; It makes me feel like I have massive shoulders.&nbsp; </p> <p>Today I tried to balance it out by wearing a top underneath and rolling up the sleeves and adding some wide leg pants.&nbsp; I like the two tops&nbsp; together, and in the future, would venture to try this combo with my black ankle crops instead. </p>
