I have a similar SS cardigan in blue and also find it very versatile. Love the different ways you have paired it! And I always admire your boots - they definitely add edge to your outfit!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-58097 Thu, 02 Apr 2009 00:20:05 +0000 Asha 58097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Antje, I love your style.<br /> I love the vest with ruffled shirt. I just bought a vest and am on the lookout for a ruffled shirt to go under. I'm hoping it's a way I can wear ruffles even with being busty.<br /> The dress, cardigan, and belt combo is divine. I love the funky look of long sleeve under short.<br /> I'd wear the blue cardi a lot too! It fits you so well and you really mix it up. I think my favorite with that cardi is the dress with pants look. So cute!<br /> Every day is stylish and fun! You're such an inspiration. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-58029 Wed, 01 Apr 2009 19:49:14 +0000 Vani 58029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are so inspiring Antje! I'm in love with the short sleeved blue cardi, and the flower pin I know now what I'm looking for the next time I go shopping. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57983 Wed, 01 Apr 2009 17:44:40 +0000 shell 57983@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>incredibly stylish as always, antje! i always love seeing your unique combinations </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57953 Wed, 01 Apr 2009 16:21:30 +0000 Becky 57953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great looks, Antje! I *love* the blue cardi and I'm glad you're getting lots of use out of it. I love the flowy scarf/leather jacket combo. Tough and feminine at the same time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57901 Wed, 01 Apr 2009 11:09:55 +0000 hanna 57901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>you are so funky, antje! such an inspiration. LOVE the dress over jeans look. and i'm so glad i'm not the only one enamored with flower pins! i am loving the look but feel awkward and self-conscious when i try it. i'm going to have to copy you because it looks fab on you!</p> <p>(as an aside... there was a mention of etsy in the replies and oh man am i an etsy-o-holic. :P) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57876 Wed, 01 Apr 2009 04:25:39 +0000 Antje 57876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone for the nice feedback!</p> <p>Jean/Greenglove: The black short sleeve cardi is from J Crew (bought last year; it came in many colors). It's a GREAT piece, the quality has held up really well. I hope they'll have them again this spring and summer; I'll definitely buy another one. The blue one is from the BP department at Nordstrom (but I found it in a consignment store); it's very similar though not quite as nice as the J Crew one. </p> <p>San: Etsy is of course a super source for pins and other accessories. But the flower pin I got is from Target (and I have another one from H&#38;M), and I've seen them also at Macys and other stores lately, so you shouldn't have trouble finding one. Some come as pin/barrette combos, and it's easy to take out the barrette part. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57875 Wed, 01 Apr 2009 03:48:27 +0000 tarzy 57875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab as always! You have such a great sense of fun and experimentation about your clothes. I really envy that! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57865 Wed, 01 Apr 2009 02:43:53 +0000 Anonymous 57865@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fab and fun. You look like you enjoy life and it shows in your style.<br /> I love the color block dress.<br /> Flower pins seem to be one of your signature accessories. I have been looking on Etsey for one.<br /> You're a breath of fresh air for spring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57860 Wed, 01 Apr 2009 02:26:47 +0000 greenglove 57860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love all the outfits!! I love the dress with the black belt, seems very you! The color is really working and the proportions of your layering are original and right on! Where do you get those short sleeve cropped cardigans and how does one tie the Angie knot? Did I miss a demonstration? Antje, your posts are inspiring, would like to steal some looks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57854 Wed, 01 Apr 2009 02:15:43 +0000 Kristen 57854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love all the outfits, and you did great thrifting. I adore that blue plaid dress! </p> <p>It may be chilly in Seattle, but you are definitely ushering in spring! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57828 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 23:44:38 +0000 Dani 57828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look so fab, Antje! I love how you wear your cardigans and you make the look completely your own. The new scarf looks wonderful on you. You mix up your look so effortlessly, it is truly inspiring! My favorite is the blue cardigan, white shirt and skirt...I may steal that one from you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57824 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 23:30:18 +0000 Laura 57824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Antje, you should win an award for creative use of a short-sleeved cardigan - the look is so you, and you wear them well! Thank you for sharing. I love that geometric dress, by the way - that's my favorite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57819 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 23:01:04 +0000 Kari 57819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful waistcoat and ruffly top!</p> <p>Antje, I especially like how you've layered the shorter cardigan over the longer sleeved blouse. I've never tried that look before, and it really works well on you.</p> <p>You know, I'm the same way about buying cheap purses but feeling like I can splurge on shoes. I don't think I've ever spent more than $40 on a handbag, I tend to buy one bag and use it until it dies, and I really don't rotate unless it's for a fancy event. I'm thinking about starting a separate post about this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57817 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 22:29:31 +0000 Angie 57817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don’t sell yourself short my dear, Antje! You are getting there with the whole handbag thing. Well done.</p> <p>Love all the outfits! Fun and fabulous! It’s nice to see that geometric dress again and I love the way you’ve layered over it. For someone who did not wear belts at all a year ago – you have TOTALLY embraced the look. Another well done! As I look at your red specs that we bought together, I’m pondering which style of specs are next for Antje….and which style of specs are next for Angie…. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57808 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 21:25:18 +0000 Antje 57808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you ladies! </p> <p>Patience - interesting that you comment on the previous lack of bags in my pictures. I wish I already had an "Antje handbag style" down; I sadly don't. I only really started bags in different colors a couple years ago, and I've been very cheap. I have no problems splurging on lots of great shoes at full price, but somehow I have been very reluctant to invest in a quality bag. I like the red one in this photo, which was a total coup - $10 in a thrift store, it's in tip top shape, and the perfect color red for me. I also have a yellow one from H&#38;M that I love because it's bright and makes me smile because it looks like sunshine. But otherwise I tote around various bags from Target or H&#38;M that don't really make me happy because they were quick and thoughtless purchases. I decided to look for a truly "great bag" this spring; something of good quality, versatile color, perfect size and shape, and that truly elevates an outfit, and I'll be happy to pay more than my usual twentyfive bucks for it... I might solicit help with that in a future thread! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57800 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 20:37:38 +0000 April 57800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Antje -- I "almost-bought" the black Target belt you are wearing in #2 about six times. Now it doesn't seem to be available. Too bad, because seeing you in it made me wish I had bought it! Looks great.</p> <p>Also, you have inspired me re. flower pins. I got two made of fabric and am about to figure out how to incorporate them into my wardrobe...</p> <p>I particularly like your final outfit, with the scarf, and I can totally see the authoritative quality that Angie was talking about. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57780 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 18:54:55 +0000 Patience 57780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Antje, you are so cool! My favorite color is blue so my favorite is the dress over jeans with the cardi. I also love seeing your red handbag-- I have realized that I don't really know what Antje handbag style is. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57774 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 18:36:29 +0000 Inge 57774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look wonderful in all the pictures Antje, and I don't blame you for wearing the blue cardigan often. It's gorgeous and you look fantastic in it.<br /> But I have to say the scarves are stealing the show this time. I LOVE them (the blue, red, cream/white one is beautiful too!!).</p> <p>I can't wait to learn the Angie knot (yep, I have a number of scarves myself, but I can never get those knots right, not even with Youtube tutorials, I'm hoping that somehow Angie can 'get through to me';-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57763 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 17:49:38 +0000 sinead 57763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As usual, you look effortlessly chic and fun. It's hard to see your new scarf in the last photo, but you can see just a bit of color peeking out and it does add "authority" and polish to your outfit. Blue and green are one of my favorite color combos. What kind of scarf is it- I'm wondering if only square scarves work like this, tucked into shirts. </p> <p>And what great thrift finds- love the blue of your cardigan. Do you sometimes find the thrift stores here in Seattle charge as much as sale prices of department stores? I actually got some $5 shirts from Macy's- same type of thing was $6.99 at Value Village. I don't get it. But I have found some expensive pieces for very little at thrift stores, so I'll keep on the hunt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57762 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 17:45:56 +0000 Ellen 57762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these outfits, Antje! Your clothes fit you so well and you combine colours perfectly.</p> <p>I love the way you wear skirts and the last outfit with the boots is terrific and classy. Beautiful cardigan - I'd wear it all the time too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-more-march-outfits-from-antje#post-57761 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 17:34:14 +0000 Antje 57761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are a few outfits from the second half of the month. I'm embarassed to see that 3 out of 6 feature the same blue cardigan. I swear I don't wear it every day, really! I just happen to be on a blue and green kick, and the cardi works well in this in-between stage of not quite winter anymore but certainly not yet spring. </p> <p>The last outfit features my new spring scarf (also in blues and greens) tied with "the Angie knot" (TM).</p> <p><a href="http://s291.photobucket.com/albums/ll308/AntjeYLF/March09-part2/" rel="nofollow">http://s291.photobucket.com/al.....h09-part2/</a><br /> (password: youlookfab) </p>
