You look so polished and crisp. It's a great rendition of Angie's ensemble formula. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1560211 Sun, 20 Sep 2015 01:48:35 +0000 Jaime 1560211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The blouse looks glorious unlayered here, but I can imagine it is difficult to style in colder weather. I am thinking a dark low stance jacket or v neck and that is as far as my imagination can stretch at this hour. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1560140 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 20:02:52 +0000 Kari 1560140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, I've had the same challenge with blouses with contrasting, strong collars. &nbsp;It feels like "too much" to add a jacket or blazer over it. &nbsp;I prefer to layer knitwear over the similar tops I have like this instead (a sweater, tunic, etc.) &nbsp;Carole's idea to try a vest might be worth playing with too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1560121 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 18:59:29 +0000 TraceyLiz65 1560121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1560071 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 16:45:07 +0000 Anonymous 1560071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm thinking that most jackets are just going to be difficult because the linear elements conflict with the rounded collar.</p> <p>I wold try either a shorter collarless jacket, like a Chanel type, or a cardigan.</p> <p>So interesting your ability to pinpoint exactly what the problem is, I can see why the collar could be a challenge but only because you saw it first! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1560061 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 16:25:36 +0000 Anonymous 1560061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great here , Sveta! &nbsp;like this white jeans combo a lot:) &nbsp;I think shirts like this are best left as a stand-alone piece and not layered. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1560043 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 15:32:03 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1560043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great interpretation Sveta. &nbsp;Have you tried a scoop neck knit vest over the silk shirt? &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1560040 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 15:27:45 +0000 Carole 1560040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect fall outfit! </p> <p>It's interesting that blouse is hard to layer...have you tried it with a vest? A blazer? Would love to see photos of experiments:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1560018 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 14:21:59 +0000 Beth Ann 1560018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done, Sveta!&nbsp; I've noticed recently that your footwear collection is marvelously stylish and practical -- love the oxfords!</p> <p>Have you tried the blouse under a longish cardi, with scrunched sleeves exposing the white cuffs? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1560005 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 13:48:13 +0000 Angie 1560005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FABULOUS. Loving the longer layers in your hair too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1559963 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 12:15:11 +0000 Gail 1559963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the outfit. What about layering with a black ( I am assuming the blouse is black here) scoop neckline knitted sleeveless sweater. You would still have the overall look but the layer would add a little interest also. Or a long sleeved sweater.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1559955 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 11:53:25 +0000 unfrumped 1559955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, I hear you-- I was thinking a bright color might connect the collar and body somehow.<br /> Not suggesting go buy, but maybe a pattern, also graphic, would look like intentional pattern- mixing? Dots, paisley; stripe as suggested above.<br /> What do thd guys do who wear those shirts? Sure thd collar is buttoned as per Suz, but still. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1559952 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 11:51:47 +0000 Aquamarine 1559952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a few items like your blouse. Sometimes it's best to let the item stand alone. It's certainly interesting enough.</p> <p>If it gets too cold to wear it without another layer, I have a few thin silk camisoles that add unbelievable warmth under blouses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1559949 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 11:45:59 +0000 Suz 1559949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ETA: try topping it with pullover instead of jacket? Or cardigan, although I know you don't really wear those.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1559948 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 11:45:23 +0000 Suz 1559948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay!!You look great in this.&nbsp;</p> <p>That is a puzzle about the jacket. Does it work if the collar is done all the way up?&nbsp;</p> <p>I know how frustrating that is; I have had this problem with some shirts also.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1559906 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 03:56:32 +0000 Debbie 1559906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your rendition! You look current and put together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1559901 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 03:17:49 +0000 Sveta 1559901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Joy.<br />unfrumped, it is not the color which is the problem but the neckline conflict - at least this is how I feel. I tried it with regular blazers, colarless blazers, moto jackets - nothing seemed right </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1559900 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 03:17:13 +0000 Eliza 1559900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Current, classic, and chic, Sveta. I know what you mean about one "extra" variable making a piece harder work into outfits. I picture trying a striped or contemporary high contrast jacket or solid dark jacket/topper that matches the body of the top with it. I find white tricky to layer over a top that dark.<br /> Great look on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1559891 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 03:05:19 +0000 unfrumped 1559891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great copy!<br /> For jackets maybe need clear sharp color. Red or cobalt. Think of it like color-blocking. Soft or pastel or murky seems less likely to work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1559889 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 03:00:41 +0000 Anonymous 1559889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a beautiful example of Angie's ensemble. If it ever cools off enough, I want to try to copy this outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-last-friday-ensemble-i-can-wear#post-1559886 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 02:51:21 +0000 Sveta 1559886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am always looking forward to Angie;s Friday ensemble posts but lately I have hard time implementing them from my closet. Either colors I don't have or styles I don't wear...<br />...but today is different! Graphic black and white - here I come - and because this is not a frequent case for me I wanted to link it to the blog post right away!<br />Everything in this outfit is old: Club Monaco silk blouse, BR cream skinnies, JCrew oxfords, Danier black satchel. Hopefully it still looks current even without any this season refreshers in the mix.<br />I think I can use some advice with this silk blouse. I liked the graphic feel of it when I bought it but it is almost an orphan. The reason: I have hard time layering over it. For some reason this type of collar in the contrast color just does not go with any toppers I have in my closet. Any suggestions for possible layering? </p>
