Wow Julia. I'm SO chuffed YLF inspired the rebirth of that button down *happy sigh*. I hope you derive great pleasure from your clever little reinventions!

Thank you Sarah. Jasmine and Rosie are our 8 year old Yorkie puppies. They are as spoilt as it gets. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Very pretty, Julia!
And Angie, if Jasmine and Rosie are your puppies, I love their names! My animals all have 'people' names, too. And coincidentally, their nicknames are also usually associated with food. :)

Thank you so much everyone! I'll definitely keep it now.

Angie, it is a two year old button down and pre-YLF but I have hardly worn it. The recent talks about button downs made me want to reinvent the look. All ideas are from this forum so thank you for the inspiration!

*chuckle* when I imagine Jasmine and Rosie get the treats.

Julia, I just wanted to add that I really like this shirt, especially the skirt and both jackets. Please keep it!

Julia, is that an old button down?

(Greg gets called “a clever little sausage” from time to time. Jasmine and Rosie are always clever, so only real sausages for them).

Julia, that is such a happy shirt! You definitely put together some nice outfits with it. My favorites are also 1, 3, & 4. It's inspiring to see four different looks with one piece. :)

Julia, I like all the looks you posted. My favorites are the two jackets. I love the aqua blue with the yellow. Now you have all those ways to wear that one shirt!

Julia, I think that the yellow shirt looks lovely on you, especially under the denim jacket.

"Clever Little Sausage" is such a cute nickname!

That makes me a happy little sausage :D I'm sure Greg, Rosie and Jasmine all get their fair shares.

I love it when Angie calls one of us a "Clever Little Sausage"!

Greg, what kind of nicknames does she impose on you?? :D

All combos look great! You've successfully reinvented your yellow button down. Well done! You are a clever little sausage :-)

My favourites are the ink blue cardi, skirt and denim jacket ensembles. You look fabulous as always! Super red shoes and necklace.

I like it for the color it provides. I think it looked especially nice with the denim jcket.

I have rid of all my button downs except for this one. Its shape is plain but I like the color and sleeve length. I've tried a few ways to wear it. Please let me know if any of them are good or should I get rid of it as well.

1. With Ink blue cardi:
