I can see you still wearing those. It's interesting to read your reaction to your photos of not that long ago. I should go back and review mine to see what I think. I've been posting WIWs regularly for about 6 months (feels like longer!). I've definitely felt quite a difference between my summer and fall style, in terms of what silhouettes and colors I find myself wearing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-round-up-chambray-shirt-stylings#post-1399785 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 00:20:49 +0000 fuzzylogic 1399785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am totally with Meggie! &nbsp;Love the way you have used three layers in&nbsp;#3! &nbsp;</p> <p>Interesting to hear how your style is evolving, Ornella!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-round-up-chambray-shirt-stylings#post-1399779 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 00:13:31 +0000 Meggie 1399779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>I LOVE look three.

These also strike me as a bit more complex than what I'd associate with your style, with the exceptions of #5 and #7 which look perfectly Lady O to me. The extra-roomy shirt in #7 has <i>such</i> an amazing relaxed vibe, I hope you still have that one to pair with your skinnies. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-round-up-chambray-shirt-stylings#post-1399635 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 19:51:30 +0000 Sharon 1399635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #5, too. I think #5 and #7 both have a more relaxed vibe.And I do love the combination of the dressy full skirt with sunglasses and a backpack in #4 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-round-up-chambray-shirt-stylings#post-1399631 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 19:43:22 +0000 Sara L. 1399631@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #7 and can see why you would be drawn to that look.&nbsp; I also really like #2 (maybe because of it's close similiarity to #7) and #5.&nbsp; It has layers, but seems fairly unfussy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-round-up-chambray-shirt-stylings#post-1399620 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 19:02:24 +0000 Anonymous 1399620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been feeling the same way about fitted shirts and body con sweaters. These all look great, really, it's just a matter of taste. My tastes are changing and it looks like yours are too. You're rocking #7, which is a Summer staple look for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-round-up-chambray-shirt-stylings#post-1399606 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 18:28:17 +0000 Astrid 1399606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I'm good! I had picked #7 as the most likely one to still get some love. It is a great look. I've been favoring simple, uncomplicated and comfortable myself... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-round-up-chambray-shirt-stylings#post-1399603 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 18:22:35 +0000 Ornella 1399603@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hands down&nbsp;#7. Clean, uncomplicated, comfortable.</p> <p>Also #4 -&nbsp;the silhouette is feminine and&nbsp;timeless, and I just have to find modern ways to wear it.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-round-up-chambray-shirt-stylings#post-1399601 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 18:18:04 +0000 Astrid 1399601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ornella, I can totally relate. Looking at my outfits that are a few months old (never mind those from last year or older) I'm left scratching my head. I've never had this happen so swiftly, but there's been quite some development, in my mind at least. Which one(s) of these would you say fits your new style direction best? Can you pin down why? I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on this.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-round-up-chambray-shirt-stylings#post-1399597 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 18:09:53 +0000 Ornella 1399597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If this looks like blast from the past, you're right.</p> <p>While searching for my previous WIWs to link to <i><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chambray-observation-and-styling-question">avettestingray's&nbsp;thread</a></i> for ideas, I realised I never did my usual round-up post of the two challenges I did earlier this year. For my blog and future reference, here is the belated round-up #1, my outfits with the chambray shirt.</p> <p>I initially asked for ideas to style the shirt on <b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fancy-playing-style-this-xyz-for-me">this&nbsp;thread</a></b>. &nbsp;</p> <p>Now, 8 months later (outfits 1-6) and 4 months later (outfit 7), I feel like I’m looking at someone else, not myself. Soooo much room for improvement and/or changes. The shift that's happened in my head and WIWs is so apparent when I look at what I wore not so long ago.</p> <p>I actually had two identical shirts to begin with (sale bargains form many years ago) and have altered one of them for closer fit. Just a few months ago all that roominess did not feel good. The second shirt remained intact - and guess which gets more wear now.</p> </p> <ul> <li><b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chambray-shirt-suggestions-in-action---day-1">Experiment #1</a></b>&nbsp;- pencil skirt and pearls</li> <li><b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chambray-shirt-suggestions-in-action---experiment-2">Experiment #2</a></b>&nbsp;- white jeans + interesting belt</li> <li><b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chambray-shirt-suggestions-in-action---experiment-3">Experiment #3</a></b>&nbsp;- red blazer + turtleneck as underlayer</li> </ul> <ul> <li><b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chambray-shirt-suggestions-in-action---experiment-4">Experiment #4</a></b>&nbsp;- full skirt</li> <li><b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chambray-shirt-suggestions-in-action---experiments-5-and-6">Experiment #5</a></b>&nbsp;- sheath dress</li> <li><b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chambray-shirt-suggestions-in-action---experiments-5-and-6">Experiment #6</a></b>&nbsp;- high-waist pencil skirt</li> <li><b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chambray-shirt-experiment-7---day-vies-classics-in-reverse#post-1296022">Experiment #7</a></b>&nbsp;- white jeans, take 2</li> </ul>
