It's a great color, nice cut- very flattering, and I like the bag, too. I don't care for the pearls, though. I think they look too dainty and old fashioned. Maybe you can find a cheap necklace that could take it's place? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-summer-outfit-accessories#post-71041 Tue, 09 Jun 2009 13:16:42 +0000 greenglove 71041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Michele,<br /> You look lovely and perfectly dressed for summer. I think the bag is great and a nice shade of off-white. The blouse is a lovely shade on you. Turquoise is a word that is used to describe various shades of a blue-green mixture, some are more blue, some are more green. There are also darker versions of turquoise, the lighter one is sometimes referred to as aqua. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-summer-outfit-accessories#post-71040 Tue, 09 Jun 2009 13:14:29 +0000 Vani 71040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look wonderful Michelle! That shade of green-blue looks lovely on you. The bag looks perfect for summer and works well with the outfit. Like the ladies said, the pearls can recycled as a bracelet or paired with another strand with a brooch a la Michelle Obama. Jewelry is so much fun to play with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-summer-outfit-accessories#post-71039 Tue, 09 Jun 2009 13:07:24 +0000 shiny 71039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely! I like that shade of green-blue on you very much. </p> <p>They are very pretty pearls. If you have a second, longer strand in same color and size pearls, you can wear them together. Or you can layer a second strand of black pearls with them. Or you could try pinning a big brooch on the strand or hanging some sort of pendant from it, to funk it up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-summer-outfit-accessories#post-71027 Tue, 09 Jun 2009 12:11:12 +0000 kimlee 71027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Michelle, you look totally fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-summer-outfit-accessories#post-70990 Tue, 09 Jun 2009 08:13:48 +0000 Louise 70990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The bag looks pretty similar in colour to one i bought at the weekend it was sold as bone colour. So i'm another vote for keeping the bag. I love the outfit x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-summer-outfit-accessories#post-70989 Tue, 09 Jun 2009 08:11:26 +0000 rute 70989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Michelle,<br /> The A line skirt looks lovely on you and the color of the blouse is great. I'm not so found of the color of the bag, I pesonally prefer a darker shade of cream. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-summer-outfit-accessories#post-70985 Tue, 09 Jun 2009 07:57:20 +0000 Michelle 70985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Elle! As a former Canuk, you'll understand when I say Hurrah for Reitmans! The price was definitely right on both the skirt and top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-summer-outfit-accessories#post-70980 Tue, 09 Jun 2009 07:25:44 +0000 Ele 70980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I love this, Michelle. You look great! That bag sure is a fab find to stumble across in a drawer! </p> <p>I would definitely call your top/flowers on your skirt turquoise, but it's one of those colours that people can never seem to agree on. Some say blue, some green, it gets even more confusing when you bring aqua into the equation. Suffice to say, it looks perfect! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-summer-outfit-accessories#post-70976 Tue, 09 Jun 2009 06:11:20 +0000 Angie 70976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look wonderful, Michelle! That is a super fitting sleeveless button down and pretty A-line skirt – the prefect ensemble recipe for hot weather. I can’t see the flowers on your skirt closely enough but they look like a green shade of turquoise to me and blend perfectly with your top. I guess boyfriend was right! </p> <p>The bag is a very light beige, and a little darker than cream and looks good. Definitely worth keeping. Won’t look bad with white sandals, but metallic sandals will look better. Hope that helps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-summer-outfit-accessories#post-70974 Tue, 09 Jun 2009 05:55:59 +0000 Michelle 70974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, girls. Alecia, you got it right on, I wanted an outfit that will keep me comfortable when Toronto decides to shift into humidity overdrive, which happens way too often in July and August. Glad you think the bag works, and thanks for the caution re. optical white. I can always use my red bag for interest there. Does the cream bag stil work if I'm wearing white sandals? I'm guessing there would be enough distance between the items to make it ok, but am not totally sure. Oh, and exactly what colour would you call the top and the flowers on the skirt? The salesperson said it wasn't quite turquoise, but the boyfriend says it is.<br /> Leslie and Maya, good call re. the bracelet! Once I find a chunkier set of pearls (hopefully this weekend), I'll give it a try. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-summer-outfit-accessories#post-70971 Tue, 09 Jun 2009 05:40:04 +0000 lwc 70971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the outfit, Michelle! And the bag looks fine to me.</p> <p>Great idea from Maya about making the smaller strand of pearls into a bracelet. I think that I'm going to do that with my small strand. Gotta love recycling! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-summer-outfit-accessories#post-70968 Tue, 09 Jun 2009 05:35:05 +0000 Maya 70968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely Michelle! It works for sure!</p> <p>I think the pearls are fine, but a great chunky strand will do even better. You could then make the smaller strand into a bracelet perhaps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-summer-outfit-accessories#post-70967 Tue, 09 Jun 2009 05:34:01 +0000 Alecia 70967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that's a great outfit. It's polished but looks comfortable and cool. I think the cream bag adds visual interest. That bag's a keeper. The only think I think it might not work with is an optical white top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-summer-outfit-accessories#post-70966 Tue, 09 Jun 2009 05:29:14 +0000 Michelle 70966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I recently bought this summer skirt and sleeveless blouse and would welcome your feedback on it. In this shot I'm also wearing an old purse that I recently rediscovered in a drawer. I've been hunting for a summer bag, preferrably in cream, and am wondering if this will do. If it's an ugly off-white then I'll chuck it, but if it looks ok I may as well spare myself the expense.<br /> <a href="http://s709.photobucket.com/albums/ww100/flowerstrewn/YLF_pics/?action=view&#038;current=Summerskirtandblouse.jpg&#038;newest=1" rel="nofollow">http://s709.photobucket.com/al.....8;newest=1</a></p> <p>Also, here's a close-up of the necklace I'm wearing. I know they aren't YLF-approved pearls, but will they do until I find a set?<br /> <a href="http://s709.photobucket.com/albums/ww100/flowerstrewn/YLF_pics/?action=view&#038;current=necklace.jpg&#038;newest=1" rel="nofollow">http://s709.photobucket.com/al.....8;newest=1</a> </p>
