Bravo for such a great find. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans/page/2#post-1669542 Mon, 30 May 2016 11:24:41 +0000 skylurker 1669542@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz : thank you for your warm enthusiastic welcome, don't worry you don't scare me off, I'm already addicted to the cheerleading and will come asking for more :)</p> <p>Lisap : we'll have a mini-meet-up in Paris this Summer, I hope (with Shevia), you're invited, come and be my friend :)</p> <p>Sheila : aha, you've got a keen eye for luxury the merlot ones are from Bally. No, don't go to their website, you'll keel over when you see the prices. If you can find them heavily discounted : pounce, they're great quality.</p> <p>Angie : no, I don't have a light jacket, I know it's a wardrobe hole.</p> <p>Aida : I feel you're a second stylist around here, you always come up with great ideas. I love the idea of rust with blush, but I don't have rust right now. I tried the jeans with the blush sweater, they're the same hue, but I didn't like it - I suffer from pajama syndrome, I don't like columns of colours (I mean, on me, of course).</p> <p>Staysfit (a daunting screenname) : thank you. I brush my shoes after each wear. I use shoetrees. I don't wear my shoes 2 days in a row. I clean, then cream, them at the end of the season, or after they've taken heavy rain. I don't use polish.<br /> It doesn't snow, but it does rain. Leather can take rain, no problem. But they're not waterproof against heavy rain, so when it's really raining cats&amp;dogs, I wear my storm-welted boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans/page/2#post-1669530 Mon, 30 May 2016 09:10:39 +0000 Staysfit 1669530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your pictures, they made me smile this morning! Thanks! My favorite looks are 4,7&amp;8. I think they have a simple elegance, they look like they didn't take so much thought, and yet a lot of thought. I love all of your shoes and want to know how you keep them looking so nice? Does it ever rain or snow where you live?! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans/page/2#post-1669473 Mon, 30 May 2016 03:40:33 +0000 Anonymous 1669473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a treat! #4 is my favorite but each outfit looks wonderful on you. The last photo expresses what we all feel sometimes. You are an inspiration! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans/page/2#post-1669471 Mon, 30 May 2016 03:33:44 +0000 Theodora 1669471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isabelle, #9? BEST picture ever! I love these pants, especially with the oxfords. They seem so relaxed, yet chic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans/page/2#post-1669342 Sun, 29 May 2016 21:09:18 +0000 Sheila 1669342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am in love with #7. And yes, many of us love oxford shoes. I like how comfortable they are and how long they last. I am currently in the market for some new ones and I would love to know what brand/model those deep merlot ones are. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans/page/2#post-1669338 Sun, 29 May 2016 21:05:54 +0000 Aida 1669338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote to make the term "banana pants" An Actual Thing ^^ FUN to see you post. #4 and #6 are brilliant (hope you get the weather to wear #4 out soon). Also quite like #3 with the navy and #7 with the burgundy. If you wear rust at all that's one of my favorite shades to pair with blush. Your loafers in #1 could be nice with these jeans too, perhaps with a tonal blush-out? Or maybe with the gray sweater you posted the other day.</p> <p>(Scrolling back from #1 to #9 is a fun "before and after" ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans/page/2#post-1669335 Sun, 29 May 2016 20:58:33 +0000 rachylou 1669335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>'Banana pants' are official now, and we are gonna get it into common usage, mark your word! I need a pair and St. James is going on my list. I think of St James for flats and boat shirts...that's the preppy in me no doubt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans/page/2#post-1669292 Sun, 29 May 2016 19:05:45 +0000 Anonymous 1669292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, now I'm dying .

LOVE that. I'm thrilled you're receiving such a warm welcome.&nbsp;</p> <p>I mean a topper light<i> in colour</i>, actually. And those workwear jeans look divine. A little ""paper bag" at the waist. Now I want those too.&nbsp;</p> <p>Yeah. Short jackets tend to look better with those types of jeans. Blazers are a little long.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans#post-1669275 Sun, 29 May 2016 18:29:21 +0000 skylurker 1669275@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bloody hell, if I'd known I had a cool secret-YLFer-institution reputation here, I'd never have posted, to keep it :)</p> <p>Oh, I know what you mean Elizabeth, usually I'd try the jeans with sweaters and toppers and leave the rest to improvisation for later, when getting dressed in the morning. I tried to be good and do my capsule homework this time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans#post-1669267 Sun, 29 May 2016 18:03:51 +0000 Elizabeth P 1669267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMGoodness, it is SO good to see you!&nbsp; You know, you are such an institution (and I mean that in the best possible way) here, I don't think I'd realized that I had no idea what you looked like!&nbsp; It's great to see your style, and I esp love your before and after posts :)&nbsp; </p> <p>I just got some blush pants as well, you've both inspired me to post them, and intimidated me because I didn't take this kind of care to style them at all, just quickly tried them with a few things.&nbsp; Something I really should try to do with more care.&nbsp; Sigh. &nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans#post-1669265 Sun, 29 May 2016 17:51:09 +0000 skylurker 1669265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Diane, have a nice holiday!</p> <p>Angie, what do you call a light jacket ? Mostly, apart from the short navy moto and the longer trench coats, I thought none of my blazers worked with that shape. It's exceptionally comfortable btw, perfect if you're a desk bound worker or a couch potatoe weekender like me.<br /> I've also seen "workwear" jeans around and was sorely tempted.<br /> <a href="http://www.margarethowell.fr/femme-ss16/pantalons/jean-de-travail-mhl-denim-serge-indigo" rel="nofollow">http://www.margarethowell.fr/f.....rge-indigo</a></p> <p>Lisap : it's my first post, I had no tech means to take pics before. I'm a big fan of your comments and humour too :)<br /> (I'm French, and live in Paris). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans#post-1669246 Sun, 29 May 2016 17:06:32 +0000 Anonymous 1669246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sort of stunned because in my two years here I have never seen a picture of you, yet read every word you write on Angie's blog in awe of your take on things.</p> <p>You have a very European look - and I know you live in Europe, somewhere.....and the baggy blush chino is a little out of my wheelhouse, but I think I know style when I see it. I love it styled as part of a "suit". &nbsp;And I wish I could wear a striped tie-neck blouse with such panache. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans#post-1669245 Sun, 29 May 2016 17:06:16 +0000 Angie 1669245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think these '80s style banana jeans might be the next biggish thing. I've had a few clients in these Topshop jeans, but no one has bitten.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans#post-1669229 Sun, 29 May 2016 16:49:39 +0000 Anonymous 1669229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm on a short holiday in Wales UK and although I'm making it a mainly internet free break, I just had to log in and say how fab to see you post Skylurker! Your blush jeans capsule is a work pf art. You've got some lovely combinations and amazing shoes. I'm particularly fond of the rich plum/fuchsia toned sweater and shoe pairing in #7 and the lovely column of&nbsp;light shades in #4. I do enjoy your dry sense of humour coming through in your post....such fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans#post-1669224 Sun, 29 May 2016 16:40:08 +0000 Angie 1669224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Navy moto sounds fab.

I just commented on the posts of people I met in London because it felt rude not to - like passing them by on the street without saying hello. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans#post-1669185 Sun, 29 May 2016 15:46:59 +0000 Anonymous 1669185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I have to be very excited to start taking selfies, for example, after I just purchased something special and want to show people who might care. Taking multiple selfies of the same thing? Not happening. You've given me some ideas on how to do more interesting selfies, I.e.: Adding some poses and facial expressions.</p> <p>I like these banana pants. Are these an actual thing sold as "banana pants" or did you just make that up?<br /> I like the iteration with the pink (red?) top.</p> <p>It's interesting what good friends you are with Angie. You're like a secret YLFer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans#post-1669169 Sun, 29 May 2016 15:32:31 +0000 skylurker 1669169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachy : the cable sweater is from Saint-James, they do this kind of knits every year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans#post-1669165 Sun, 29 May 2016 15:29:18 +0000 skylurker 1669165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A K-rating ! Angie YOU made my day. Too bad it's for an outfit I can't wear because it will never be warm enough apparently :)</p> <p>I'm surprised the shoes get so much love, didn't realize they were other oxford fans on YLF. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans#post-1669160 Sun, 29 May 2016 15:25:07 +0000 Anonymous 1669160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the jeans on you.

Yes, #8 was the most studied and unnatural to me - so I'm happy it got some love, Mochi - and yes, I have a soft spot for #7.</p> <p>Kkards and Aliona : I felt silly (and bored quite frankly) taking selfies so I started to goof around. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blush-banana-jeans#post-1669156 Sun, 29 May 2016 15:23:05 +0000 Ledonna N. 1669156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your pictures are so so cool.

Exhibit #9....only you).&nbsp;</p> <p>Fab white loafers in #1. Cute rolled jeans too.&nbsp;</p> <p>The blush jeans look <i>insanely</i> fashion forward and '80s. Modern Retro.&nbsp;<b>LOVE</b>. Now I want a pair too. (Excellent look with your very long legs).&nbsp;</p> <p>You did a stellar job putting these outfits together. The word "charming" comes to mind - but then so is your personality, and I can't separate the two. I'l throw in a little cheeky too.&nbsp;</p> <p>#4 is Killer, and my best. I am sooo stealing those oxfords. I like #6 next best. Fabulous proportions. But they ALL work well. You are our Elegant Tomboy. Cute kinky hair too.&nbsp;<b></b> </p>
