Updates - Need A Little Help Please....
Permalink Closed

I've got a banquet to go to with my husband at the end of November.  I want something a little dressier then jeans and the basic cami but I want to totally go away from my average (office) clothes.  I love the looks of this top! But not sure what to wear with it???  The last time I saw some of these people I was a little heavier and I'd like to show off what I've worked so hard for.  I'm totally open for any other suggestions.  Thanks ladies!

That top looks beautiful, although I haven't seen it IRL.  It would look great with some strands of jet beads and some pointy toe shoes.


However, if you are looking to show off your figure, it may not be the best top because it's so full through the middle.  What about these?

I love that top and I think it would look great with some wide-legged trousers. But as jj said, it's not going to show off your waistline at all.

Well, luckily you can see my weight loss alot in my arms, face, and neck.  So I think the change will be pretty noticable.  Would you wear black trousers and heels or what???  I love the looks of it - though I wish I could see it in person....... ahhh, no Anthro near by!

 Okay, I bought some black Flannel Wool Editors at Express this past weekend that look like these - do you think this would work or be too dark??  Jewelry suggestion??

I also thought about adding a colored shoe but didn't want to take away from the focal point being the top

Do the black shoes and add the long jet black beaded necklaces, which you can find at any department store right now, then add a gold clutch which you can also find anywhere these days.

Love the idea of all black and then a gold clutch, very classy!  Although I don't know about the flannel material of the pants, I think I'd go with a regular dress pant material since the top is so flowy, but you'll know when you put them together.

Your right on the pants.  I'll definetly try both on and see which look best.  I'm hoping the top is as cute in person as it looks online.  If anyone sees it - PLEASE post a review!!
