And yes, the skirt has been saved and will be staying.</p> <p>Suz - I let the hem down on this skirt myself. Just used a stitch ripper and took apart the hem and let it down about 3/4 inch - that's all the seam allowance would allow giving me enough fabric to give a proper hem, which I then just stitched by hand. It's funny how just that extra bit made me feel so much better in this skirt. IMHO it's worth a try in your case. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-white-makes-right#post-1011201 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 13:00:19 +0000 Thistle 1011201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad you rescued that skirt.&nbsp; You look terrific, and fresh, and so put together! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-white-makes-right#post-1011199 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 12:57:31 +0000 donnat 1011199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, yes, yes. Save the skirt! It looks spectacular with that tee, and the blazer is the icing on the cake.

Just stunning. This is with the hem let down, correct? I am debating whether there's enough seam allowance on mine to make it worthwhile or not.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-white-makes-right#post-1011143 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 11:36:23 +0000 deb 1011143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bam!

I hope you wear the heck out of this skirt because it looks great. And congratulations on your hard work paying off again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-white-makes-right#post-1011136 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 11:27:58 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1011136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie suggested I pair my taupe pencil skirt, which had fallen out of favour, with white as that seems to be my favourite summer colour these days. Boy was she right!!!</p> <p>Today's outfit started with my taupe pencil skirt and my taupe/white/pink silky tee. Gotta give myself a pat on the back because I couldn't fit this tee three months ago.</p> <p>I added my bone/silver sandals and a pink vintage Bakelite bangle to pick up the bits of pink in the tee. Then I popped on my white blazer, scrunched the sleeves and BAM...loved the outfit AND the skirt. Thanks Angie &nbsp;I'm using my large cream handbag and wearing a swipe of bright pink lipstick to round out the outfit.</p> <p>I also have to give special thanks to Parsley who convinced me a white blazer could and would be a workhorse for me and to MaryK, who constantly inspires me with her white blazer outfits.</p> <p>What do you think? Has this skirt been saved? How do the proportions of the longer blazer with the shorter skirt look to your eye? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Blazer: Nygard<br />Tee: Anne Klein<br />Skirt: Cleo Petite<br />Sandals: Fugitive<br />Handbag: Danier Leather<br />Bangle: vintage </p>
