I saw several comments from ladies asking me to post products that are not my favorites. Honestly, I prefer talking about items that I love since it is way easier, and I don’t like talking bad about an item since someone else might absolutely love it! Take distressed jeans for instance; I love them, but a lot of you are fans. So, today, I’m showing a hit or miss post and asking you, would you wear it?

In talking about if something is a hit or miss, I’m talking about the style mostly, but fit might also come into play. If you love the style of an outfit, you can always change the size that you are wearing to see if it will fit you better. But, if the style isn’t to your liking, then you have to ask yourself, would your wear it. If the answer is no, then let’s see what you can tweak to make it more your style.

There are a lot of elements to an outfit besides the top, bottom, and shoes. You also have accessories and a complementary piece that can change up the look, so don’t forget to think about adding or subtracting those.

Let’s start with this red ribbed crisscross sweater by Sofia Vergara. I bought this sweater for a couple of reasons, but mostly because I had Valentine’s Day in mind. The peek-a-boo openings are kind of a thing right now, and I thought they might add some sex appeal to my look. But, I’m not sold on the look.

I love the bright red color, and my bra straps aren’t showing through the openings, so that is a plus. Ribbed clothing always seems to run small, so I ordered a large, and it fits…snugly. It isn’t ridiculously tight, but it is very snug, as in you see the oreo I had for dessert tight.

The sweater’s length is just fine, and I don’t have any complaints about that. And, even though the top is snug, you can’t see back fat oozing out from around my bra, so that is another plus! Lol!

I added these Red Kyocera Opal heart earrings c/o Kendra Scott to my outfit to make it even more festive looking for Valentine’s Day. These drop earrings are super cute and the small beads around the heart add a little something extra. The stone is especially beautiful in person, but it was hard to show that in my photographs.

I love the modern ankle jeans from Talbots. There is something about these jeans that are spot on! They hit me at the right spot on my ankle, they aren’t baggy but they aren’t snug, and I even love the color. You see me wearing these a lot for a good reason, they are modern looking and fit great. I’m wearing an 8 since I usually size down one size in Talbots clothing.

Now, it’s time for you to get vocal. What do you think, is this a hit or miss, and would you wear it. Or, would you wear parts of it and switch out for something else?

    The outfit looks great on you, but it would show every ounce of fat I have so i will pass!!

  2. Holly Pickering says:

    Not sure why some gals don’t like your shoes? I say you look like a sharp, sexy, classy Valentine date for Joe! You look fabulous in this whole outfit…AND I LOVE THE SHOES! 😁. If I was thinner, I’d copy this outfit for sure!

  3. Donna Ratinoff says:

    I think you look great in the whole outfit. I, too, would wear it.

  4. Whatever the sweater is trying to achieve, it does not. You look fabulous in red, but the sweater is lacking. Pass for me.

  5. Terry Shannon says:

    I do not love the top or the shoes. As for the rest, including earrings, I would wear it!

  6. I love the whole outfit. Would so wear it

  7. I think you fantastic in the entire outfit and if I were slimmer I would wear it also. The top fits you great. The earrings are super cute also. The shoes are the only part of the outfit I’m not a fan of. But on you they look good.

  8. I’m over 70, and I’d wear it unless it hugged my body too closely. I hate feeling and seeing tight clothing. The openings do not expose anything, so it keeps people guessing. (I remember Bridget Bardot’s sexiest outfit was an oversized man’s dress shirt. Nothing showed, but it sure made men wish they could see more!). Anyway, that red with your beautiful blond hair will drive Joe crazy.

  9. A hit! You look great! I cannot wear the heels, but I love them too. ❤️

    Sorry, but I hate the cutout top. It is too small and shows too much skin. It does nothing for you but the rest of the outfit looks great. You are a good looking woman.
