The blouse and cardigan are very nice but a little big on you, maybe if you try all these clothes with leggins it'll be better. I agree about the jeans, maybe they're comfortable but don't do any good to your figure. I think you look lovely when you wear skinny jeans and skirts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626256958127756377.post-19968138611531343552010-12-25T13:11:27.159-08:002010-12-25T13:11:27.159-08:00Great haul!

The color is perfect for your skin tone. I'm like you, can't stand banded bottoms on my tops. However, it's super easy to cut off the band and hem up the bottom of the blouse (making it the perfect length for us petite girls anway)and sucessfully making it very comfortable to wear with skirts and jeans alike....plus you can tuck in with this option too. Merry Christmas ...I hope you get a chance to take a very deserved break over the holidays!!Callandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09678329589245339747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626256958127756377.post-59127123144355152642010-12-23T19:39:52.521-08:002010-12-23T19:39:52.521-08:00Wow, this is one of the most controversial post I ...Wow, this is one of the most controversial post I have seen so far. Did you expect that, Liane? :) <br />I would keep the banded shell and the striped cardigan. The shell looks really nice on you and the price is great. The striped cardigan is a versatile piece in your closet. For $11 I'd definitely keep.<br />I would not keep the cocoon cardi because I don't think there is anything special about it. I don't think it looks bad on you, but not loving it either.<br />The blouse is a tough call. I never liked it on the rack, online, so I never tried it on myself. I don't particular like how it looks on you, but since everyone was talking about tucking into a pencil skirt I will reserve my opinion until I see it. (I don't have too much of imagination.) I checked out how Loft model wore it (tucked into pants) and didn't like it either. <br />@Sidney, please share you picture with his blouse, I'm really curious how it looks on you.<br /><br />Liane, take some rest and talk to you soon.

I like the ruffle shell (looks better in the first pic) and purple cardigan on you. I might be partial though since I brought the same shell in XSP home with me. If you do decide to return it, please let me know, as I prefer the XXSP ;) Have you tried exchanging for another item before? I wonder if they let you retain the $25 card discount.DoubleZerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16801583925793748239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626256958127756377.post-76000680226431315252010-12-23T17:56:20.104-08:002010-12-23T17:56:20.104-08:001) I agree with the comments that say to return th...1) I agree with the comments that say to return the cardigan. Especially after how you described it as itchy. Like Aubrey, I was immediately reminded of a moth-ridden old blanket that I'd find in a grandmother's attic. The style is cute on you, but the texture is no good. Definitely not worth the $25.<br /><br />2) I happen to love both the color, style, and fit of the sleeveless ruffle shell. Good deal too! The shade of pink complements your fair complexion in my opinion. I agree that it could be more fitted, but I like the looseness of it. It's probably because I've spend years settling for loose tops that I've come to like the look, but I find tops like these really useful on days when I eat a big meal or just somehow feel bloated for some reason, lol.<br /><br />3) Ditto about the looseness of the floral top. This is the kind of thing I'd like to wear on a humid summer day. Something flowy and that doesn't cling. I agree with the other comments that it could be very versatile tucked in or belted.<br /><br />4) Love the cardigan, especially at the price! You always find the best deals! I can't wait for LOFT to offer more of these V-neck boyfriend cardigans. I ordered J. Crew's Perfect-fit mixed-tape cardigan back when they had more colors on sale and was very pleased with the XS (which fits like Loft's XSP), such pretty colors!R.L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09415181469636262733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626256958127756377.post-68483698070876931592010-12-23T17:13:22.259-08:002010-12-23T17:13:22.259-08:00Liane, I LOVE the cardigan (mostly b/c I have an o...Liane, I LOVE the cardigan (mostly b/c I have an obsession with long cardigans like that!) and the blouse.

I stucked it into a pencil skirt and it has a total different look. I planned to wear it to the Christmas dinner at my parents tomorrow.<br /><br />I have to agree with Aubrey on the 1st cardigan. I do not like it at all. Sorry :( Although, it costs only $25.00, you can certainly find something much cuter. This reminds me of a grandma sweater. The rest of the items are OK. One advantage is they're not very expensive. You always get the best deals at LOFT. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Perhaps you can belt it close? I imagine a skinny belt would work well.<br /><br />I like the color of the banded bottom ruffle shell. And yay for trying out brighter colors. I've been kinda doing that lately too :) The banded bottom does sort of hit you at a weird spot, so maybe you can try tucking it in? Same with the abstract print blouse with tie.<br /><br />The striped cardi looks to be just a tad too big and long. Is it 100% cotton? If so, I think there's hope for shrinkage.<br /><br />Ok I realize I didn't vote for to keep or return, only merely giving my opinions. I'm horrible like that :P Happy holidays, Liane!Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14183749125846812753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626256958127756377.post-71321598333629476542010-12-23T12:52:58.929-08:002010-12-23T12:52:58.929-08:00Yay!

Can you try tucking it into a pencil skirt and twitpic us, lol? I am envisioning Nelah's suggestion and think it'll actually look quite nice.<br /><br />I never looked at the popcorn-esque nublins on the cocoon cardi that way until Aubrey pointed it out, but now that's all I see. Aaack! Diseased-looking items scare me, and although the cardigan was my personal fave I'm now eying it in a different light.<br /><br />So many mixed thoughts on here...can't wait to see part II, lol : )Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12216324874406973211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626256958127756377.post-31786978687398287462010-12-23T10:37:34.050-08:002010-12-23T10:37:34.050-08:00I actually really like the abstract print blouse. ...I actually really like the abstract print blouse.

Thanks for reviewing these items and it's awesome that you're moving beyond your comfort zone!<br /><br />As for the clothes, I like the abstract print one the best because it's different, it's bright, and it has that 70's vibe to it but it's still modern. Plus, it should be worn loose, which looks great on you! I don't think it looks childish or mature, but with the right styling it can look super chic! =)Stylepinthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05838895350128426902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626256958127756377.post-20135365028284647832010-12-23T10:13:05.969-08:002010-12-23T10:13:05.969-08:00I like the peach shell (big on you obvi but I thin...I like the peach shell (big on you obvi but I think it would look great under a cardi)...the rest I can probably live without.

Do not take personally.) This cocoon wrap thingamajig is atrocious! Like what is that? Who @ LOFT approved this?! It looks like the oldest moth-bitten, shapeless, drabby, grandma's-first-time-knitting-but-she-has-cataract cardigan I've ever seen. I think the nubbins are supposed to give the "popcorn" effect, but instead, they look like the cardi has a disease and those are boils. Honestly, you can take your $25 and buy something wayyyyyy cuter somewhere else. My rating for this open cardigan: SKIP!!!! <br /> <br />Ok ok, on a higher note: I personally like the abstract print blouse on you and wish I could find it for myself so let me know if you wanna sell on the forum. Sleeve length ends around elbows: Good. Ruffles: Good. Longer length makes it tuckable into non-"dinky" panties (shout out to Jean): Good. Pop of color: Good. Neck line: Good. Opinion: Keep or sell to Aubrey. ;DAubreyOhDang!https://www.blogger.com/profile/14376314594766169583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626256958127756377.post-27550156360246627772010-12-23T09:47:32.634-08:002010-12-23T09:47:32.634-08:00i'm a sucker for sales too!i think my favorite...i'm a sucker for sales too!i think my favorite is the cardigan and the cocoon sweater. everything seems a tad too big on you. i just receive my free people items too and am unsure about a couple of things and definitely am keeping my receipt just in case. have a merry xmas!Pinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01691816499034268105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626256958127756377.post-30735124432077250732010-12-23T09:37:00.681-08:002010-12-23T09:37:00.681-08:00I vote for the purple striped cardigan and cocoon ...I vote for the purple striped cardigan and cocoon cardigan. The purple looks great against your skintone, $11 is practically free, and even though it's a little big, it looks casual and warm. I bet it'll work great if you leave it open, but belt it. The cocoon cardigan looks nice and snugly, and I bet you can layer a fun colored long sleeve top or slim cargidan underneath it and look extra snuggly.<br /><br />The ruffle shell has too much happening and you're a bit lost in it. I can't see you, I just see ruffle every time I look at it...LOL. The abstract blouse is kind of "meh". I don't love it, I don't hate it, but I think you can spend your money on something better.Alterations Neededhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17555124576937762228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626256958127756377.post-71395157805846978442010-12-23T09:20:51.214-08:002010-12-23T09:20:51.214-08:00You always get the best deals!
