I know you love neutrals, but those colors you've chosen (the coral, purple and blue) are truly lovely on you.</p> <p>Tee-hee - I have worn that exact same casual outfit (including the cons). I'm glad to know I'm in good company. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630540 Mon, 28 May 2012 06:02:55 +0000 Kiwichik 630540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my a feast for the eyes - you look wonderful in all these outfits and I love that your hair is so versatile. 1 &amp; 4 are my favs and I love you looking cute and cosy in your gingham shirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630527 Mon, 28 May 2012 05:04:08 +0000 Kari 630527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Christy, the tones and textures of your work wear are absolutely lovely. I don't think I recall seeing you post the blouse in #1 before, but it is a stunner. I also quite love the pattern mixing in #5 (those shoes are patterned too, right?)</p> <p>Mmm, P.F. Chang's lettuce wraps are delish! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630507 Mon, 28 May 2012 04:10:58 +0000 christy 630507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! You girls are so encouraging. </p> <p>Zapotee - I keep hoping that you will post more work WIWs! Not sure why the Classiques blouse wasn't very popular. I think the bold graphic was a bit much for some. To be fair, I didn't have it styled at all and posted it with pants that I wouldn't have actually worn it with. </p> <p>Deborah - that's right, you do have a very similar skirt, don't you? Looking forward to seeing you wear it again!</p> <p>Sveta - agreed that something was off with the open jacket in #6. Closing the jacket made a big difference I thought.</p> <p>Sue *waving to my shirt twin*! Goodness I love that shirt! Wish I'd duplicated it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630482 Mon, 28 May 2012 03:14:14 +0000 annagybe 630482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love #1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630480 Mon, 28 May 2012 03:06:58 +0000 Jaime 630480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I especially love #1,5 and 6 and just simply love the rest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630458 Mon, 28 May 2012 02:41:48 +0000 Traci 630458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I missed the keep or return, but the top in #1 is stunning the way you styled it here. All great looks. I keep finding myself zooming in on different items in your outfits because you have so many great pieces! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630451 Mon, 28 May 2012 02:37:59 +0000 Transcona Shannon 630451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab week as usual but outfit #4 and #6 are particularly outstanding! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630448 Mon, 28 May 2012 02:36:45 +0000 Suz 630448@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Silk shirt twin!!! I love seeing that navy AT shirt on you! </p> <p>But I have to say that #6 is my total favourite. You look amazing in that blue and what a great colour combo with that fun skirt. </p> <p>Love the casual look as well. Also, you are positively glowing in that coral top. Stunning. </p> <p>What a great week!. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630442 Mon, 28 May 2012 02:31:52 +0000 modgrl 630442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 6 the best and of course 7 - I am wearing that shirt all the time on the weekends. How fun!! You are fab every day. Just terrific. That blouse in 1 is lovely. I was on the fence about it, but it is just beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630388 Mon, 28 May 2012 01:39:32 +0000 Sveta 630388@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You blew me away with #4: so elegant and combination of deep purple and light grey is just stunning!<br /> All other outfits are lovely too. I like the skirt in #6 but something gives me pause here; maybe the length of the blue shirt with it? Is it untucked or this skirt has very low waist? I wonder if this is why you liked it better with buttoned up jacket: it is low contrast with the skirt and visually creates different proportions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630358 Mon, 28 May 2012 00:15:58 +0000 Deborah 630358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Christy you look stunning. Each and everyone of these outfits is wonderful.<br /> I adore the top in #1.. it's gorgeous and I do recall when you first posted it.</p> <p>And #6 has proved awesome inspiration. Now I know how to wear my skirt which is the same but red and black! Thank you.</p> <p>I am loving seeing you in flats! Its taken me ages but I finally realise they can look just as stylish as heels.</p> <p>Im not set up to be "pinning" yet, but you saving as a favourite </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630344 Sun, 27 May 2012 23:41:36 +0000 Anonymous 630344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How nice to see a fellow more "traditional" corporate dresser. We are a dying breed, aren't we? These are all amazing outfits. I especially love #1, #4 and #5. I love your casual ensemble too!<br /> I love the blouse in #1. What was it that did not pass YLF muster? Just curious. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630343 Sun, 27 May 2012 23:34:54 +0000 Angie 630343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally gorgeous every day, Christy! All 10s! (In flats too, no less :))</p> <p>But #6 is my best. So elegant. That's an 11. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630342 Sun, 27 May 2012 23:33:47 +0000 JennyAnne 630342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All your work outfits are lovely. I'm especially drawn to #5, because of the fab jacket, I think. I looooove the last one. I must find a great gigham shirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630339 Sun, 27 May 2012 23:31:13 +0000 Amy 630339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Where to start...so many great outfits. The Classiques graphic print top is stunning. You look fantastic in that elegant grey suit. Wow. Love the Tahari jacket too. #6 is fab and #7 a great casual look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630313 Sun, 27 May 2012 21:54:45 +0000 Meredith1953 630313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to add that I totally love the look in pic 6. I don't think I've seen that type of skirt ever styled this well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630312 Sun, 27 May 2012 21:53:45 +0000 Meredith1953 630312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All of your work outfits are so polished and interesting to look at. You combine color and pattern so well! I also love that you included the casual look in pic #7. You look as beautiful in it as in all the other outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630310 Sun, 27 May 2012 21:44:37 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 630310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. You are on a roll aren't you? </p> <p>I love the skirt in #6 and the shade of blue with it. Great outfit. I also love the gingham top and really think having your hair up made the look even better.</p> <p>Your suit in #4 is a perfect example of a suit that is conservative but not boring. Very nicely done with color and texture.</p> <p>Great outfits Christy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630307 Sun, 27 May 2012 21:38:22 +0000 christy 630307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1. Classiques graphic print navy/cream blouse, indigo T Tahari pants, Halogen sandals, Stella &amp; Dot long rope pearl necklace, B Makowsky handbag. This blouse didn't get much love when I first posted it as a k/r, but Angie and I both loved it. Hope a proper styling improves it's favor around here! :)<br /> 2. Coral wrap top, Old Navy grey tank and grey open weave sweater, Halogen grey skirt, Nine West reptile print heels, Steve Madden reptile bag<br /> 3. Took off the grey sweater and added the coral Franco Sarto flats.<br /> 4. Suited up - Ann Taylor light grey suit, Classiques purple silk sleeveless blouse, red Michael Kors heels, Steve Madden reptile print bag<br /> 5. Elie Tahari white/navy tweed jacket, Ann Taylor navy silk blouse, BCBG navy pants, Nine West reptile pumps, Steve Madden bag, Loft silver tassel necklace, black belt<br /> 6. LOVE this new skirt! Picked it up when shopping with my friend at Nordstrom. Bobeau striped skirt, T Tahari black jacket, Foxcroft banker's blue button up, BCBG peep-toe pumps, grey gum ball pearl necklace, Steve Madden bag. I ended up buttoning the jacket rather than leaving it open, which I liked better.<br /> 7. Target boys' checked shirt, Gap straight jeans. I wore these driving mocs on the way there, but changed into my black cons while out and about. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-week-including-more-prints-and-color#post-630306 Sun, 27 May 2012 21:37:15 +0000 christy 630306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are last week's outfits. As always, comments and suggestions for improvement are welcome! </p> <p>#1-2 and #4-6 worn to work<br /> #3 Hit Nordstrom for a couple of hours after work with a friend who asked me to help her shop for a new work wardrobe. Super fun! Then we went to PF Chang's for lettuce wraps, ahi tuna, cucumber salad and a couple glasses of wine. Yum!<br /> #7 - Per the request to see more casual outfits - can't get much more casual than this! We spent the weekend at a little place we have in the mountains. When it's snowy and cold, skinnies, boots and big comfy sweaters are the norm. This is transitional weather dressing and it's SUPER casual there. </p> <p>Outfit details to follow - thanks for looking! </p>
