And especially your choice of sandals for both outfit. My personal favourite is the first one, with its earth tones and the perfect sandals for the skirt's height and shape. And I really like that little cardigan, both for the colour and the cut. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiws-following-rubric#post-635549 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 17:43:59 +0000 rae 635549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think your rubric is wonderful - love both of these. You look great in low contrast! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiws-following-rubric#post-635515 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 17:13:54 +0000 Anonymous 635515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your first outfit! The brown tones with a surprise shot of color are really attractive on you. Love the subtle animal print, the well-cut skirt and the swingy short jacket. Perfect! I like the second outfit too, but I see what you mean about the high contrast and not liking the ruffles as much. I have gone to work feeling that way too. The outfit is fine (Angie likes it!), but it's not hitting your happiness goal.</p> <p>I'm hiding some ruffles on my top today with a printed scarf worn long. Maybe you have a printed scarf in that fab closet of yours that would lower the contrast and camouflage the trim on your sweater? Just a thought! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiws-following-rubric#post-635185 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 03:54:46 +0000 Kiwichik 635185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Beth Ann only she said it so much better than I could. Love you in 1 &amp; 2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiws-following-rubric#post-635176 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 03:47:03 +0000 Transcona Shannon 635176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think both these outfits fit your rubric really well. Love you in that pale peachy/pink colour in #3 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiws-following-rubric#post-635172 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 03:43:06 +0000 Beth Ann 635172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I particularly like #1, and it fits the slim, leggy, feminine and low-contrast. the jacket gives almost a retro look, with the boxy silhouette and buttons at the top. I love this juxtaposed with the on-trend animal print top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiws-following-rubric#post-635049 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 02:18:14 +0000 Suz 635049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I remember that old favourite skirt in #1. It looks great on you here! Look at those legs. You wear the sandals in both so well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiws-following-rubric#post-635017 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 01:58:17 +0000 modgrl 635017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1, but I agree, a lighter colored skirt might be nice with #3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiws-following-rubric#post-634979 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 01:14:12 +0000 Angie 634979@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the romantic integrity of #3. There is a subtle Chanel and Valentino vibe to this outfit that is divine. The dainty strapped sandals are a very good choice with this look </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiws-following-rubric#post-634974 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 01:09:52 +0000 cjh 634974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello, I'd promised more WIW photos but life has interfered as usual. Here are two from last week, showing my attempt to actually follow my "rubric" rather than define it from what I wore. To refresh my own memory, I think it was "leggy/slim; grown up feminine; low contrast; something catchy/modern."</p> <p>#1-2 - brown straight skirt, an old fav, with animal print chiffon top, brown pinstripe short sleeve jacket, and aqua blue earrings. This outfit made me happy and followed the rubric. The blue touch was fun and surprising to me.</p> <p>#3 - pale peachy tank with chiffon swirls, peachy cardigan with georgette ruffle at the edge, black knit skirt and black shoes. I liked wearing this because of the shape of the skirt is my favorite, and the tops were comfortable but dressy looking. The parts I didn't like were the high contrast between the black and pale tops, and the over-girly trims - more romantic than I would generally pick. But I guess I looked nice for work.</p> <p>Well, two stabs at it - one success. Thanks for looking! </p>
