For awhile now I've been wanting to buy a new suit. I've been on the lookout, tried on a bunch of options, and haven't found anything that fits particularly well or is all that flattering.
That said, I found something this morning that I might be into. BUT--since I'm never 100% sure about these things, and those of you who read this seem to have great senses of fashion, I want your opinion. I need my stylists!! Before I show you, I should tell you a few things about it.
- I LOVE the jacket and the look as a whole. I don't think it makes me look boxy or masculine, which I normally think when I'm in a suit.
- The jacket=size 20. The pants=size 18. I took pictures of the tags for evidence, just in case I am making this all up in my head. Size 18 pants? NEVER happened before, ever.
- The whole suit cost me $48, tax and all. Brilliant.
- The pants are the one thing I can't quite decide on. I'm not really a wide-leg girl, and since I have no butt, I don't know if I can really pull them off. The size 20's were too big in the leg, even though I really have to squeeze into the 18's (but they fit!) Maybe a tailor can work some magic on them?

I'm confused. The close ups look like a taupe color. The suit you're wearing looks black?
I like it! And yes, a tailor can take the bulk in. But make sure to keep the wide legs... the less tapered the legs, the better. You look great!! Really. And you're NOT narcissistic. :)
dude...you are SO FREAKIN SKINNY!!! I love the suit and I'll see you in two weeks. in new york. how cool!

Like the suit!! I think the jacket could be even a slimmer fit in the waist. It's a little boxy and I can tell you have a small waist than it lets off. Very cute and classic though :)
Darling, you look marvelous!! Work it. :-D
Seriously, you are fabulous. There is a TALL NJB out there with your name on him, I'm sure of it.
