WIW: Cobalt & White - YouLookFab Forum

I'm so in love with all things white this summer - it's bordering on an obsession!

Today's outfit started with my white blazer and underneath that, I have on a colourful Cleo tank purchased a few weeks ago. I like the gathered neckline of this tank and the detail of the navy shoulders (which are nice and wide, which I truly appreciate). I've paired the tank with my cobalt knit pencil skirt and for footwear, my silver/bone sandals.

For accessories I'm wearing my white watch and carrying my light cream handbag. Again, there is a mix of white shades in this outfit.

What do you think? Does it all work together? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.

Gorgeous! I think you are getting ME obsessed with your white blazer. I also love those sandals. Where did you find them, again?

Debra

I think it works wonderfully. Smart, crisp, classy and I am in love with your shoes

Eliza

Great summer look. Love the bag and shoes with the jacket. YLF.

Ditto - I have several new pieces of white too - and we are in Winter. Sooo happy with them too. Your outfit is crisp office glamour!. White just seems to lift your spirits doesn't it? Well that is a good enough excuse to war it anyway. Love the shoes too.

Thistle

Crisp, summery, and chic. Terrific outfit!

Hope you feel better Shannon! And, I also love whites on spring/summer time. That was one of my first aknowledged lessons here when joining YLF, and now I cannot live without!

Lantana

This all works beautifully and you look summer perfect. The top offers other possibilities for bag colour, do you ones in coral or blue?
I adore and covet those shoes.

I see we have a fair bit of "white love" here! It really does make everything else in the outfit pop doesn't it? And yes Archer, it does indeed lift the spirits.

Raisin - the shoes are from Canadian Footwear. They have a number of shoes/boots from the Fugitive line and all the ones I tried on were incredibly well made and extremely comfortable. Definitely worth checking out. Here's the Fugitive page on their website if you're interested http://www.canadianfootwear.co.....earchFullt

Thanks everyone for your lovely comments. I'm feeling pretty snappy in this outfit

ETA: Cross posted with you Lantana! Ooooohhhhh....I love the idea of a blue or coral handbag. Hmmmm....I thought I was done shopping for summer....

Karie

Very chic - I love the colors. Those shoes are fab-a-licious!

Beth Ann

Love white and bright floral together! And its been a revelation to realize that all the whites in an outfit needn't "match." The subtle variations in your outfit add depth and softness. You look great!

hedgiehog

You look lovely! White has never been a go to for me but I've incorporated it in small pieces. I think the top works well with the skirt and you can probably wear it with other pieces as well. YLF!

shedev

You had me at cobalt. Those shoes are really fab with your style.

White makes it all right :). I am SO with you, Shannon. Fresh, crisp and modern.

Welcome to Team White, where we are constantly praising its magical powers.

KILLER outfit!

Karie - I cannot say enough how glad I am I bought these shoes. These truly are MY summer white sandals. Love them!

Beth Ann - I never would have had non matching whites in an outfit pre YLF. Actually I'm not sure I would have worn anything white period. I really like the varying shades of white and cream.

Thanks Shedev and Hedgie!

Angie - I am so glad to be a new member of Team White

MsMary

This is fab, especially with the jacket! Yay, Team White!!

Sveta

White is on my mind too - out of 4 days this week I wore something white for 3 of them!
Actually I thought it is a bug I caught from Angie...:-)
Everything looks better with white blazer! Love your outfit Shannon. so summery and bright - and those white shoes are darlings!

DonnaF

I especially love how that top shows off your waist and how those shoes showcase your shapely legs. I can't imagine any white shoes looking better on you!
