HIT OR MISS, WOULD YOU WEAR IT
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?
Let me hear your inner fashionista come out!!!

Tania, you are so beautiful that you could wear a toe sack & make it look good! But I really love this sexy outfit for Valentines! That sweater is gorgeous on you and w those beautiful shoes & perfect fit jeans! And I just love your hair!
I think you look amazing since you lost weight! This outfit looks really good on you as it shows off your figure nicely. I see no reason for you to shy away from wearing it!!
I would say a miss. Color great, cut outs not so much. At 60, I now go for simple styles with bold color or accessories.
Love the jeans and the color of the sweater but the ribbed sweater is not something I would wear. I prefer something longer and less fitted. It looked pretty on you.
The top is a hit on you, but would be a miss on me. I generally don’t like cut-out styles, and being a bit busty, with a little extra around the tummy, I think this top would look ridiculous on me. Love the jeans and shoes and earrings for Valentine’s Day! Like some others mentioned, I would wear another style red top or sweater. Love red and love it on you. Your look is great!
Hey! I would pass on the top. The top fits you perfectly and the color is perfect on you but something……
Anyway, you look terrific and I would wear everything but change the top!
Love the jeans. I agree with you about the top-not my style I would find another top in red that I was more comfortable wearing and you can’t go wrong with red shoes
I would wear this outfit.
I love this look! The red is flattering, and although form fitting, it doesn’t appear too tight to me. The jeans and shoes are great too.
I wouldn’t wear this because it doesn’t flatter my colouring or shape and I don’t wear heels.
I love the jeans and the shoes are a nice touch, but that top is a miss for me. Not sure why I don’t like it. Red is my favorite color and it looks great on you.
