Then we had a good laugh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-you-or-wouldnt-you#post-96385 Thu, 24 Sep 2009 12:34:08 +0000 Ele 96385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wouldn't do it because my legs are a bit muscular for this look, so I like a longer line for them. I love it on others though! (Oh, but only your idea of a pencil skirt, Danja- I'm not so crazy about the ides of attempting it with trousers.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-you-or-wouldnt-you#post-96369 Thu, 24 Sep 2009 07:22:34 +0000 lwc 96369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm...*pops open a bottle of wine, pours a glass, and passes it to Danja*...I don't think that it is for me, but I'd love to see what you come up with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-you-or-wouldnt-you#post-96221 Wed, 23 Sep 2009 22:40:40 +0000 Angie 96221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The slacks have GOT to be tapered. I will be on my way to apoplexy hell if they are not! </p> <p>I can see the young little Chinese lasses in Hong Kong sport this look with panache. You need youth on your side as far as the colours go. If it’s a more neutral monotone look, it’s possible to make the outfit look more “grown up”. But I don’t think it adds anything to your style to sport this look when you’re older. For that reason, I would not sport it. Does that make sense? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-you-or-wouldnt-you#post-96178 Wed, 23 Sep 2009 19:17:13 +0000 RoseandJoan 96178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This would be a step to far for me but I admire people who can wear this look well. The J Crew image reminds of the picture perfect challenge image of the lady standing on the board games, but that may just be me!</p> <p>Please post a picture if you attempt this look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-you-or-wouldnt-you#post-96176 Wed, 23 Sep 2009 19:11:07 +0000 Maya 96176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it for my age and personal style, which is why I already do it. Some people will look absolutely silly in it because it is NOT their style. It depends. I stick to black though. I'm not really convinced of those bright colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-you-or-wouldnt-you#post-96170 Wed, 23 Sep 2009 18:58:04 +0000 Srujana 96170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i like it best with the strapped pumps and not at all with the booties. i'm strangely drawn to it too...can't wait to see what you pull off! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-you-or-wouldnt-you#post-96168 Wed, 23 Sep 2009 18:57:19 +0000 Boof 96168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wouldn't, but if anyone can pull it off, it's you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-you-or-wouldnt-you#post-96167 Wed, 23 Sep 2009 18:54:43 +0000 Sarah 96167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wouldn't, but I think you should try it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-you-or-wouldnt-you#post-96166 Wed, 23 Sep 2009 18:53:13 +0000 Tanya 96166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am sure you could pull this of beautifully Danja! I admire the look, but will stay away from it personally since it will do nothing good for my short legs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-you-or-wouldnt-you#post-96164 Wed, 23 Sep 2009 18:49:16 +0000 Anonymous 96164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know you could do this with pizzazz! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-you-or-wouldnt-you#post-96161 Wed, 23 Sep 2009 18:46:50 +0000 Danja 96161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What do you ladies think of this look?<br /> <a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Shop_By_Category/accessories/hosiery/PRDOVR~19179/19179.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Brows...../19179.jsp</a></p> <p>Specifically, pencil skirt with ankle length socks and booties or interesting pumps. I am really drawn to it, but I need to have a drink before I attempt it. </p>
