I love how you look in white (the white cardi), and the guitar tee is really cute. Definitely try it with a vest! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-70235 Sat, 06 Jun 2009 02:35:18 +0000 shana 70235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Vani, you looked great all week. Love the coral on you and I especially like how you've paired it with a lacy cami! I also really like the guitar tee and a white vest might be the perfect way to update it! Isn't the white cardi fab? I also got one earlier this spring and I have been wearing it with everything! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-70224 Sat, 06 Jun 2009 01:40:38 +0000 yublocka 70224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh here's the blog post where I read about altering a Threadless t-shirt. I love the way she has done it:</p> <p><a href="http://workwithwhatyouvegot.blogspot.com/2009/04/record-store-day.html" rel="nofollow">http://workwithwhatyouvegot.bl.....e-day.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-70181 Fri, 05 Jun 2009 20:24:29 +0000 Asha 70181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are so pretty! I love all week, and I love the graphic tee outfit. I love the white waistcoat idea. You wear color so well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-70121 Fri, 05 Jun 2009 17:40:55 +0000 Srujana 70121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i love how you've done all of these...but my favorite is the coral cardi/white tank look! it looks so effortlessly pulled together, and looks marvelous on your skin! i think i have that same cardigan in a bright green but it hits me much lower on my hips... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-69888 Thu, 04 Jun 2009 19:19:23 +0000 Kellee 69888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Niva,</p> <p>I love the t shirt with the guitar. It is graphic, asymmetrical ,a surprise underneath a jacket.<br /> I think the idea of a simple necklace, perhaps a long chain could give you the feeling of the V neck you prefer.</p> <p>You definitely look great in bright colors.<br /> The coral is just wonderful on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-69839 Thu, 04 Jun 2009 16:56:42 +0000 Vani 69839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tam, thanks! That white cardi is soon becoming my favorite staple and wearing out really fast. I need to duplicate fast. I'm still experimenting with skirts and belts and layering so this all very new and exciting to me! The jacket, tee + jeans outfit is the closest to my heart though. I feel very good in such outfits for some reason Lately I feel the same way with pencil skirts. Wrt Threadless tees, have you seen this?: <a href="http://www.threadless.com/profile/192043/pyr4lis/blog/354141/UPDATE_Reconstructed_Tees_added_list_of_tees_available_for_requests" rel="nofollow">http://www.threadless.com/prof.....r_requests</a><br /> I wish I could do something as simple as altering the crewneck to a V neck.<br /> I'll play around with a few of my lounge tees and see what I can do :-D</p> <p>Khris, thank you! I used to be afraid of how colors would look on me but picked this up one day when I was feeling particularly bold (Target). I am keeping an eye out for coral pieces!</p> <p>elpgal, thank you Those were the two outfits I was most unsure about. The tee+jeans look used to be a staple but to step it up to smart casual I paired it with the jacket which I haven't worn in a long time. I love Threadless tees, if only they would start offering less constricting/more flattering necklines. I looked up the label on those jeans and it says "Favorite Flare" I bought it 6-8 months(?) ago. Just be aware of the distressing on it. I like the fit but I bought a different model in the same fit without realizing. I didn't know there was some serious distressing in the knee are until after someone pointed it out to me at work! Then again my workplace is VERY laid back so it flies. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-69667 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 23:17:45 +0000 elpgal 69667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favs are the coral cardi and the guitar tee outfits. Threadless tees used to be a staple in my college but thanks to post HBC boobs, I can't fit into the XL sizes in the girly tees anymore :(</p> <p>What style of AE jeans are these? I am on the hunt for new ones and these look like they might be roomy enough in the thigh area. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-69575 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 13:36:28 +0000 chewyspaghetti 69575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Niva- I love the coral color on you. You have to start looking for that color to add it more places in your wardrobe. Love your Threadless tee, too- they are having a $5 sale right now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-69555 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 11:51:49 +0000 yublocka 69555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great week!!! Love the crispness of the white cardie and the way youve done the scarf in the first outfit! Your neutral palette experiment look is super flattering on you &#38; rolling the cuffs up has just given it a final touch!! I love your threadless T design! I also find my threadless Ts a bit constricting around the neck and saw someone somewhere post one they had altered themselves that looked great. One day I am going to give it a go!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-69419 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 00:27:39 +0000 Vani 69419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>susan, Thank you! </p> <p>bella Thanks! I'm glad you liked the tee. I've been meaning to go over your outfits because I remember you sporting one or two cute tees. I always love how you style your outfits :-)</p> <p>Dani, a necklace to create a V, what a great idea! I will definitely try that, thanks!</p> <p>Angie, thank you! Coral is the word I've been going for, just wouldn't come to me I have a black waistcoat but I wasn't sure about the black on black. Now a white waistcoat would be awesome. I'll start looking for one! (Glad Greg will approve, I just can't stop loving it :-D) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-69408 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 00:04:48 +0000 Angie 69408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A GREAT week, Vani! I LOVE you in white and coral. The turquoise is fabulous too! A waistcoat is a wonderful idea. Do you have one? I think you should get one in white :0)</p> <p>(Fab graphic T - guitarist Greg would approve). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-69336 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 20:27:44 +0000 Dani 69336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute looks! I like the pop of color from your blue scarf in the first outfit. I like the rest of your outfits as well, but there is something off, for me, in Friday's outfit. It could just be the crew neckline of the shirt...have you tried adding a longer necklace to draw attention down a little and create a v shape? I don't know if it will do anything but I thought I'd suggest it. I think the shirt is cute though. Another thought...what about under a vest instead of the jacket? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-69332 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 20:20:51 +0000 bella 69332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all of your outfits Vani! I think the black tee is really cute, I would wear it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-69328 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 20:12:16 +0000 susan 69328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Niva-What nice outfits! You look very nice everyday. Your cardigans could definitely be your signature look, Imo. I personally think your Friday outfit looks great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-last-weeks-outfits#post-69315 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 19:18:39 +0000 Vani 69315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are a couple of outfits I wore last week. Nothing great but I would love feedback on different things I have been trying:</p> <p>Tuesday:<br /> This is a casual jeans outfit I wore to work. I wanted to add a pop of color to a largely neutral palette so I threw on the blue scarf, using the susand ( ) knot:<br /> <a href="http://s273.photobucket.com/albums/jj209/vmmpics/ylfmay09/?action=view&#038;current=IMG_2978.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s273.photobucket.com/al.....G_2978.jpg</a></p> <p>Wednesday:<br /> I felt like dressing a little sharp and also put to use some of the tops I determined post YLF as skirt length:<br /> <a href="http://s273.photobucket.com/albums/jj209/vmmpics/ylfmay09/?action=view&#038;current=IMG_2987.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s273.photobucket.com/al.....G_2987.jpg</a><br /> White buttondown ATL, Brown blouse/top ATL, Faux Denim pencil skirt KC, Pumps Nine West<br /> White cardi H&#38;M, Black tank The Limited, Jeans AE Outfitters, Scarf Wal-mart, Watch Fossil, Shoes Aerosoles</p> <p>Thursday:<br /> The temps were a little cooler and springlike inspiring me to add some more color than usual. I finally brought out a scarf I got as a christmas gift:<br /> <a href="http://s273.photobucket.com/albums/jj209/vmmpics/ylfmay09/?action=view&#038;current=IMG_2996.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s273.photobucket.com/al.....G_2996.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://s273.photobucket.com/albums/jj209/vmmpics/ylfmay09/?action=view&#038;current=IMG_3017.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s273.photobucket.com/al.....G_3017.jpg</a><br /> Peach/Pink cardi Target, White tank Wal-mart, Jeans Express, Shoes Me Too Nadia, Watch Fossil, Scarf ????(Christmas gift from aunt), Earrings (from Mom, India)</p> <p>Friday:<br /> Friday is utmost casual at work and I felt like wearing something not too casual, yet not too smart casual So, I threw on a jacket on a brand new Threadless tee I've shunned post YLF. I really do love this tee, esp the white guitar on black fabric I have a strong feeling I will get a thumbs down for the jacket, it pre dates YLF by years and was thrifted. I'm hesitant about the crewneck tee but I just LOVE the print Can I convert it to a split or V neck? Any ideas?<br /> <a href="http://s273.photobucket.com/albums/jj209/vmmpics/ylfmay09/?action=view&#038;current=IMG_3021.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s273.photobucket.com/al.....G_3021.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://s273.photobucket.com/albums/jj209/vmmpics/ylfmay09/?action=view&#038;current=IMG_3022.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s273.photobucket.com/al.....G_3022.jpg</a><br /> Jacket thrifted, Tee Threadless, Jeans AE Outfitters, Shoes Aerosoles, Watch Fossil </p> <p>As always, I really appreciate all your feedback. Muchos Gracias! </p>
