No bears, we, girls, must shave 😂, even if it's so tampting .

Have never cared for white shirts styled like that either.

I really like the look of the shirt tails showing and am glad it is shown as an option or suggestion. I have been debating on a button up shirt so that I can wear it under some of my sweaters. Seeing it styled on a petite woman has helped me decide to make my purchase. Thank you💖

Underlaying like this helps lightning face and accentuates other parts. Also no need in another accessories. But I, sadly, doesn't use such layering with shirts , it's unflattering on me, kind of uncomfortable. Turtlenecks with jackets, and other garments with upper layers.

There's faux layered shirts with that look

😊As someone who gets overwhelmed w/a lot of prints (esp. near my face😔)〰️I ❤ a collar/cuff/hem "pop." Looks cool, casual, & chic. Polished, but undone. Bonus: If you use a more body con cropped topper (like the black crew neck jumper shown here), it can serve a bit as an informal corset too. That helps reduce fabric volume from the button up. ⏳️Hourglass gals gotta size up on button ups to fit over breast & hips, but it can leave bulk around our smaller waist😂. FYI 70s Mary Tyler Moore Show📺 frequently put MTM in long sleeve patterned button ups w/a more body conforming short sleeve solid tee shirt on top. Of course, she rarely rolled or cuffed the sleeves. She also always tucked the shirt tail of her button up in her skirt or trousers. While a classic corset feels too bedroom & costumey for me😳〰️love the look of mod streetwear stylists wearing body con cropped tanks (wider straps) over button ups. It corrals fabric bulk while it gives a contempory impression of a corset w/the hem out. 🤫Personally, I struggle w/dickies & other faux layers. Collars always end up askew. Better to stick w/short scarves. I clipped✂️ a fake tank out of a pretty short sleeve blouse too. It added unneccesary boxy bulk & it felt matronly👵. 💚Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct) 📩ps TarynTruly a fiesty fab plus size apple influencer popped in my loop. Like Chi, she 💯% convinced me on slimming impression of cropped tops paired w/high rise bottoms (skirt or pant). She's larger breasted & short waisted like me too. She prefers cropped tanks & sweaters to avoid having to full tuck. It also negates the need to wear spanx to minimize that tucking bulk of longer tees around her tummy too. This ALWAYS bring the focus right up ⬆️ to her waist. It beautifully slims & elongates her lovely form. She also ALWAYS adds an open topper of some sort as a last layer to finish her looks. If she does close the topper, she uses a belt to bring eye right back to waist level. Brilliant. She's not afraid of using a variety of hem lengths in them either.

So sorry your eyes popped out!

It sometimes helps if the rest of the outfit is a similar colour, so that you have an unbroken line.

​@@AlexLouiseWestYes. In my weather most preferably - black, but here may be accents :bright colorful hat or interesting bag. Also all outfits must look very proportional (volumes) :hats, boots, bags, coats, legs.

Personal color palette obviously can change, even if sometimes slightly, with age(more cold, paler skin, loosing color ) , tanning or whitening, changing color of hair.

@@elenamaa5897 when you get your analysis done, they base the pallet off your skin tone, undertones, eye color, and natural hair color. They typically do this with the color draping method to see what pallet is most complimentary to all these things. Your natural skin tone and undertones don't change. If you tan, hopefully via a self-tanner and not from the sun, how your skin tans is also indicative of your natural skin tone. I find the analysis process very interesting.

Look for shoes with a longer toe, like pointy or almond. It will look just as good at heels. Or try a slim style platform.

@DreamGreatThings I will try that. It's been 4 years of heck. I wear sneakers 24/7 because I also have epileptic seizures, and I can fall easily. That is also added stress. I always stayed away from flats. Honestly, all of this time, flats had never crossed my mind🫣.. Thank you so very much.

Sadly, but it's a reality, - for me it's inappropriate, because of my age and knees , so - also no.

I prefer v neck sweater

@@user-bi3cv3cz5w vest sweater is good , but not long sleeve sweater over shirt
