The MOTG outfit is especially fab. The neutrals work really well and the pattern mixing makes it your own. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chameleon-challenge-day-3-torontogirl-all-neutral-triple-leopard-for-work-motg#post-1422383 Sat, 10 Jan 2015 22:24:18 +0000 annabelle 1422383@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love, love, love this, Natalie! and I appreciate torontogirl having been the inspiration. This replicant series you've initiated is inspirational: it is genius for us to see an outfit on another woman and to creatively figure out how to make it our own. Thank you for the ideas! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chameleon-challenge-day-3-torontogirl-all-neutral-triple-leopard-for-work-motg#post-1422090 Sat, 10 Jan 2015 14:14:53 +0000 Nebraskim 1422090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my, this is just outstanding, brilliant and fab.

I love how you did a switcheroo with torontogirl's style yet kept your own style within that. Brilliant! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chameleon-challenge-day-3-torontogirl-all-neutral-triple-leopard-for-work-motg#post-1421871 Sat, 10 Jan 2015 00:53:02 +0000 karymk 1421871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have never seen you do it up better. &nbsp;You look sooooo sophisticated and you kept your own style integrity in there with your pattern mixes. &nbsp;Nothing about any of these is boring!!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chameleon-challenge-day-3-torontogirl-all-neutral-triple-leopard-for-work-motg#post-1421609 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 19:02:49 +0000 Alassë 1421609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I enjoyed seeing the brown tones in 4-5 on you again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chameleon-challenge-day-3-torontogirl-all-neutral-triple-leopard-for-work-motg#post-1421531 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 17:11:54 +0000 Jules 1421531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love these! <br />While I totally crush on your style, mine is definitely more basic (for practical more than aesthetic&nbsp;reasons). But I definitely share your love of pattern and colour. This winter&nbsp;I actually came up with an all-neutral outfit that I've even repeated. It was funny to realize that using all neutrals was actually outside my comfort zone, and then identify the elements that had made it possible for me. In your case I love how you've incorporated pattern, contrast and texture and once again really made the look so *you*. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chameleon-challenge-day-3-torontogirl-all-neutral-triple-leopard-for-work-motg#post-1421493 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 16:10:20 +0000 Angie 1421493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are gorgeous in both outfits.

It's so cool how you can put your own spin on things and truly make the outfits YOU. Funny enough #1 is my fav, but I also happen to be much of a neutral gal like TG. But what really strikes me is how unusual it is to see you in such a simple, neutral outfit. Without the matchy matchy animal prints it would be&nbsp;<i>too&nbsp;</i>neutral and just wouldn't seem&nbsp;<i>you.</i> This is a fabulous exercise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chameleon-challenge-day-3-torontogirl-all-neutral-triple-leopard-for-work-motg#post-1421401 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 14:04:45 +0000 Ingunn 1421401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You re a magician.

This is amazing! Once again, you have created incredibly wearable outfits that reflect both your style and the style of the person you are inspired by. Absolutely stunning!! LOVE the Vince cardigan on you with those jeans. Gorgeous. But I am equally in love with the other renditions. I cannot pick a favourite.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>YOU ROCK!!!</b> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chameleon-challenge-day-3-torontogirl-all-neutral-triple-leopard-for-work-motg#post-1421165 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 00:39:15 +0000 shedev 1421165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>you are knocking it out of the park with this challenge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chameleon-challenge-day-3-torontogirl-all-neutral-triple-leopard-for-work-motg#post-1421155 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 00:27:03 +0000 Elizabeth P 1421155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Natalie, you are just too much!&nbsp; This is brilliant... I cant believe that in your sea of prints and colours, you had the clothes to pull this off.&nbsp; And you still look awesome.&nbsp; Love all three renditions.&nbsp; I actually think #9 is my fav. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chameleon-challenge-day-3-torontogirl-all-neutral-triple-leopard-for-work-motg#post-1421143 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 00:05:03 +0000 goldenpig 1421143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In my first chameleon thread, I asked for suggestions for who I should try to copy and annabelle asked me to copy Torontogirl's all neutral outfit with leopard scarf.&nbsp;I have to be honest, at first I wasn't sure&nbsp;I could do this one and make it look like&nbsp;me. I hardly ever wear scarves--I'm always worried they will get in the way at work when I'm bending over patients, or become a choking hazard (to me!)&nbsp;when I'm with my toddler. Plus my clothes tend to be patterned, which would compete for attention with scarves. I do have several scarves (about 10)&nbsp;but they've been languishing in my closet.&nbsp;And I don't usually wear outfits with all plain neutrals. I've usually been doing bright colors, or more lately, dark black, but always some type of pattern.</p> <p>I did some more reading on TG's style. Sounds like we both have daughters of similar age who have strong opinions on fashion! I also noted&nbsp;how she did Project 333 and limited her wardrobe to 33 items for 3 months. Her <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/barklah/project-333-my-first-attempt/" rel="nofollow">Pinterest board of her 333 wardrobe</a> looks like a beautiful California Closets ad!&nbsp;While I would love to do the Zen minimalist wardrobe, capsule dressing and neutrals would never work for me. I'm too addicted to prints and colors!&nbsp;However, I thought it would be the perfect challenge for trying a new approach. I don't usually dress in neutrals and let the accessories do the talking. (Usually my outfit and the accessories are competing for attention, LOL!)&nbsp;It was a fun challenge, and I have to say I'm pleased with the results. Thanks TG for giving me another approach to outfit creation, and for rescuing my orphan scarf! And thanks Annabelle for suggesting the copycat!</p> <p>I did two different outfits, one casual that would be perfect for MOTG since TG is a SAHM. I picked a neutral oatmeal cardigan and paired it with a black turtleneck and the leopard scarf, with distressed jeans and leopard ballet flats. With a Longchamp tote just like TG carries--perfect for carrying things around as a MOTG. I included my signature matchy matchy with triple animal print with the&nbsp;scarf, shoes and bracelet.&nbsp;Since I was going to work today, I also did another version, swapping out for a tweed pencil skirt and cheetah pumps.&nbsp;I also had to learn how to tie a scarf--I tied it in a more casual infinity style for MOTG and a long double twist for work.&nbsp;At first I was going to do the cream and black&nbsp;tipped peacoat and add the dotty purse to echo the black buttons (and to add one more animal print with the snakeskin purse), but I decided that was way TMGO and switched to the cognac leather jacket and the bronze tote. I'm happy with how it came out. I haven't done all neutrals or leopard or brown&nbsp;in a long&nbsp;while--nice to change things up!&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for looking and commenting!</p> <p>MOTG (1-3):<br />Vince oatmeal cardigan<br />J Crew black cashmere turtleneck sweater<br />Target leopard scarf<br />Vigoss distressed skinny jeans<br />Stuart Weitzman Giveable ballet flat in leopard<br />Michael Michael Kors leopard bracelet<br />Karl Lagerfeld watch<br />Longchamp Pliage tote in bronze metallic pony print</p> <p>swapped out for work (4-8):<br />Lafayette 148 cognac leather jacket<br />Lafayette 148 tweed pencil&nbsp;skirt with black leather waist<br />Sam Edelman Okala pumps in cheetah print</p> <p>runner up (9):<br />J Crew tipped peacoat<br />Michael Michael Kors snakeskin dotty purse</p> <p>Torontogirl inspiration (10):<br /><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---all-the-neutrals" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....e-neutrals</a></p> <p>Prior challenges:<br />Day 1 Annagybe Cherries &amp; Chanel:<br /><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-chameleon-twin-challenge-day-1-annagybe-cherries-chanel" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....ies-chanel</a><br />Day 2 Rae Urban Warrior Mermaid:<br /><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-chameleon-twin-challenge-day-2-rae-urban-warrior-mermaid" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....or-mermaid</a> </p>
