WIW: Orange & Argyle - YouLookFab Forum

It's a completely miserable day here today so what better to do than wear some bright colour with a bit of pattern mixing! I started today's outfit with my orange tee and my orange/white/grey 3/4 sleeve argyle sweater. There's my colour. Then I paired that with my Gap medium wash L&L's, tucked, and added my snakeskin belt. There's my pattern mix (snakeskin and argyle). I've popped on my Clarks brown sandals for comfort and then added my camel leather handbag to pick up the camel colour in the belt and added a watch.

How does this outfit work? Proportions and colours ok? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.

Tee: Anne Klein (thrifted)
Sweater: thrifted (no label)
Jeans: Gap Long & Leans
Sandals: Clarks
Belt: Olsen (thrifted)
Handbag: Mondani New York (thrifted)

Love it! I'm a sucker for argyle, and that is a great shade of orange on you.

A really cute patterned cardigan Shannon, and it goes so well with the tee underneath!

Suz

Super outfit, Shannon. Cozy but bright! And I love seeing the Long and Leans. Sometimes I just get tired of skinnies and really crave a different silhouette. It's great to have these to pull out in those moments. They look really good on you.

Oh - and if you haven't been there, please check out Elisabeth's "I'm an idiot" thread. Your ears may be burning.

This looks fab! The orange is a lovely color on you and the proportions are great. The silhouette is "long and lean". Great combo.

Abie

Such a happy outfit! I love the orange on you and the pairing of the belt with the Argyle!

You are the emobdiment of cheery! in your outfit as well as your persona

You wear it well, too!

Love the orange argyle with the denim, and loving how you thrifted half of your outfit!

This looks really great on you - I think the vest addition (I've seen you in one before) is a great style for you. The orange with the denim is such a good combo.

I like orange on you, and love the pattern mix, so happy outfit. Was it a cooler day, I guess!

Thanks everybody! As it turned out, it got much warmer than I thought it was going to get and with the 94% humidity and rain, I'm WAY over dressed and can hardly wait to get home and pop on some shorts and a tee!

Victoria

I love this look, Shannon, absolutely awesome! Of course, as everyone knows, I am partial to pretty classic styles so I fully intend to steal this look

Fun! Classic! Trendy color! The perfect outfit, I think.

There's a whole lotta orange and argyle lovin' here!

I really like this outfit- the Argyle is very eye-catching. I think the proportions look good and I especially like the belt and sandals.

Wow! In my not-so-humble opinion, this is one of your best outfits ever! Just perfect!

Cute and cheerful! This look would work perfectly for a cool weekend as well.

Great outfit! I love that orange on you. Don't you hate it when the weather doesn't cooperate?! The proportions are perfect. Love the pattern mixing and this might be one of my favorite outfit of yours!
