WIW or Sveta's SYC Challenge (New Item Two Ways)

It is so happened that this morning I have decided to wear my blue shirt in a way I have never worn it before. Then I have seen Khris's new challenge - such timing!
Anyway I usually wear this blue shirt tied up in front with a skirt or dress - like that:

However today I have decided to layer it not over but under a dress I have never paired it with before. I opted for statement earrings instead of necklace - for some reason necklace just felt too much with this collar:

What do you think?

Oh my gosh, Sveta, I love both of these looks, but the second new way is Fabulously Killer! Love the leggings, or are those jeggings? The mixture of different blues is so very flattering! Well done!

Love! It is so cute how your toes match the blouse in the first picture. The blouse over the dress is adorable but the second outfit is perfection. I like the colors together and I like the proportions. And that shade of blue makes you glow. Well done Sveta!

That second outfit is a huge home run, Sveta! Way to go!!

I LOVE the new outfit. Fantastic.

Both outfits look great, but the second one is especially fabulous. That color really looks beautiful on you, and the cut is nice. Did you try a belt with it? (just curious, I don't know if a belt would necessarily look good...)

Nice shirt remix! I luv when I can think of a new way to wear an item. The blues look beautiful on you. It looks good without a belt, but I also was wanting to see what a belt would like.

I sound like a broken record, but both outfits look great and the second outfit is especially flattering on you

Those blues are perfect for you and I love that shirt under the jumper/tunic with the leggings! Well done and I hope you felt fab because you looked it!

Very nice!

(and do people tell you that you look like Uma Thurman?)

The colors of the second outfit are truly fab on you! (Colors of the first outfit are good for you too, but less about harmony.) Really pretty!

I really like the shape of the first dress but the blue outfit was gorgeous. Really like it with the leggings

Stunning!

quail

Love it. I think a very long, chunky necklace would work with the second outfit, as well.

love the second outfit! You look so so so fab in that combo!

Do you have a long strand of pearls to throw over that first outfit? It just seems to need a little something.

The shirt remix outfit is so fab! I love the pairing of the two blues together.

Both outfits really complement your hourglass figure, Sveta, they're lovely. And your cute toenail polish tops really finishes the look. FWIW, I agree with you re the earrings and collar :).

Sveta, you are a knock out! I loved the orange dress but the second combination is even better! The color, the fit--perfection!

I am so glad to get YLF approval for my experiment! Thank you so much.
Carole, these are denim colored leggings.
Jonesy / AJ, I do not like how this dress looks with a belt. It is a pretty fitting sheath and belt just creates bulges there.
Anne, really? Uma Thurman? It must be a camera angle
Scarlet, you are right. The second outfit is harmonious color scheme and the first one is complimentary (I hope I got this terminology right). They just create different moods and I like when my outfits reflect my "mood for the day"
quail / Kim, I will try a necklace next time I wear this dress.
Thanks for looking! And Khris, thanks for thinking up these challenges - they really stimulate the creativity!

Sveta, beautifully done!
I too wanted to see a belt with outfit #2. But I believe you if you say it won't work IRL.
