Very simple but also modern.</p> <p>I think flattery has become a bit less important with dressing now across lots of ages. There’s a sense of joy in this look that I love. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2219253 Thu, 26 Aug 2021 15:00:18 +0000 Laurie 2219253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This outfit says breezy, crisp, nautical, casual but dressy, comfortable. I guarantee you that "wide" would have never entered my thoughts. The necklace is great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2219251 Thu, 26 Aug 2021 14:53:17 +0000 Anonymous 2219251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so glad you're back Viva, ever stylish, ever lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2219214 Thu, 26 Aug 2021 12:13:56 +0000 lyn67 2219214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know what you mean by "there was a time I would not have chosen to wear something that makes me appear so wide..." I had the same worries, but then&nbsp; pleated midis started showing up a few years ago, and I just loved their new airy, non-stiff fabrics-and their longer&nbsp; length-- so slowly became accustomed with&nbsp; more volumes on my low part, too. Now, I see only a really&nbsp; great and smart summery outfit here-and have my version of this one, too- which I wear it with heads up and then hope for the best, aka beeing&nbsp;&nbsp;judged rather&nbsp; by my bone structure , face , arms , ankles-as Lisa said-haha!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2219154 Thu, 26 Aug 2021 01:20:44 +0000 Jaime 2219154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree that the necklace makes the outfit and the clog sandals are the perfect choice. Beautiful look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2219152 Thu, 26 Aug 2021 00:59:49 +0000 Sloper 2219152@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful and suitable!&nbsp; Is this the "paper cotton" skirt from Alex Mill? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2219092 Wed, 25 Aug 2021 22:40:49 +0000 Aquamarine 2219092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Crisp and breezy, not wide at all! You look cool and collected, hard to do in that kind of heat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2219077 Wed, 25 Aug 2021 21:31:14 +0000 ChristelJ 2219077@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is just beautiful on you. Makes me want a white skirt...but it's the way you have styled it that really sets it off. What a great necklace. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2219076 Wed, 25 Aug 2021 21:30:11 +0000 kellygirl 2219076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOOVE!

I love the juxtaposition of the modern-minimalist vibe of the necklace with the flowy white skirt (and the clog sandals, of course!).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2219021 Wed, 25 Aug 2021 19:23:26 +0000 Anonymous 2219021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely and cool.

It's cool and easy but still polished.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2218998 Wed, 25 Aug 2021 17:30:27 +0000 viva 2218998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b></b>Thanks all. I had forgotten how fun this can be, to post and get feedback, and to comment on others' posts. Thank you for the community.<b></p> <p>Sharan and Suz</b>: So interesting about the necklace. It was a last-minute add-on, and I think you are both right that it is key to modernizing this look.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Angie</b>: "A Modern '60s Mia Farrow" may be the best style compliment I have ever received. THANK YOU.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2218994 Wed, 25 Aug 2021 17:16:34 +0000 Suz 2218994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it is the simplicity of it that works so well -- the necklace is key, too -- its modernity offers a nice contrast to the fuller skirt.&nbsp;</p> <p>Also, the fresh blue and white scream summer to me, as well, and maybe in particular, summer in Maine. Interesting!&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2218980 Wed, 25 Aug 2021 16:52:34 +0000 slim cat 2218980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great look! I was feeling similar way about this summer dressing - comfort and some contrast in the outfit go a long way . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2218979 Wed, 25 Aug 2021 16:50:43 +0000 Star (Lise) 2218979@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such a great summery vibe.&nbsp; Not wide to my eye at all.&nbsp; Also lots of love for the clogs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2218978 Wed, 25 Aug 2021 16:47:59 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2218978@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a pretty summer look. I like how the necklace and skimming ribbed top keep this look very modern and very you. (Unlike, say, adding a frilly top and antique-look necklace, which could also work with the skirt and clogs. . . for someone else.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2218977 Wed, 25 Aug 2021 16:35:31 +0000 kkards 2218977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect summer outfit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2218975 Wed, 25 Aug 2021 16:27:37 +0000 Anonymous 2218975@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful!

I like to think ( at least this is what I tell myself) that you can usually tell by the person’s bone structure , face , arms , ankles etc that the silhouette suggested by an outfit doesn’t indicate the shape / size of the body underneath . This is a lovely , professional-yet-modern hot summer look . Love those clogs ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-true-to-summer#post-2218970 Wed, 25 Aug 2021 16:17:05 +0000 Angie 2218970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER GORGEOUS</p> <p>I see elegant, practical, pretty and Euro.&nbsp;</p> <p>You have never looked better,&nbsp;<b>Viva</b>!
