Thanks everyone! Angie, glad you like the 5th outfit. It was one of those crazy "creative experiments" I embark on - sometimes successfully, and sometimes they never get photographed/worn This one seemed promising so I wore it outside the house...
The bold flower thing is a simple sleeveless shell, in a thin stretchy material, that I originally got to wear underneath a jacket/cardi. But then I somehow never wore it like that, and it was doomed to be a wardrobe orphan, and before discarding it I thought why not try it out OVER something. So I'm wearing it over a black button down (one that is not completely plain, but has some structure in the fabric). I thought the neck was a little awkward since the shell is very high necked, but somehow I think it works because the pattern is so bold that everyone just sees the flowers and doesn't really pay attention to the neckline
