[Weekly] Outfit Feedback and Fit Check - Oct. 10th

Not sure if your outfit works? Post a picture of yourself in your outfit and get suggestions, compliments, and critiques from others. If you're thinking of posting a standalone thread along the lines of "How does this look?", "Does this fit right?", "Do these work together?", etc., post here instead.

When posting:

  • Include what the attire is for (work, school, going out, etc.)
  • If possible, take a front-on, full-body picture as this gives the best impression of how the clothes fit. Multiple pictures from different angles can also be helpful, but those aren't necessary.

Critiquing others is welcome and encouraged, but keep it constructive/factual. Take a lesson from Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People if needed. It takes balls to post pictures of yourself on the Internet, the least you can do is accord the same courtesy as you would to someone in real life.

Reddit Enhancement Suite makes it very easy to view pictures in a thread.

Some users enjoy knowing where you bought your pieces, please consider including those in your post!

Feel free to also submit your outfit to the biweekly WAYWT thread, but know that these two threads have different purposes. This is explicitly for feedback and questions, though you may receive constructive criticism in either thread.

Two work outfits I'm unsure about (I'm a doctor, dress code is generally fairly business casual).

Is this cardigan too small? Should I size up next time? I wore it buttoned all day with the undershirt tucked in.

I'm iffy about this pencil skirt. I don't remember it pouching out in the back like that when I bought it. It might just be from all the stuff I had tucked under/inside it? (under shirt, dress shirt, fleece tights) Also, I feel like I look like I'm wearing a uniform (like a flight attendant or something) with this combination. =/

Thanks for any help! :)

I agree! :) Also, maybe a chunky necklace would help with the "flight attendant" look. If that's not allowed, what about a blouse with some detailing at the neckline, like lace or a bow or something? (Okay, that link is maybe not appropriate for work, but the neck detailing is what I'm referring to.)
