Best wishes to all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/co-ord-or-not#post-2352936 Fri, 16 Feb 2024 00:10:43 +0000 Jonesy 2352936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definite potential! Lemaire does lots of tonal looks that combine slightly different layers in a single outfit, and I think it looks fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/co-ord-or-not#post-2352935 Thu, 15 Feb 2024 23:52:32 +0000 JAileen 2352935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ordinarily I wouldn’t wear these together. &nbsp;But I think the way to make the outfit work, is to pile on this color. &nbsp;If you have some other versions of the color, as in a top and maybe a patterned scarf, then it looks intentional. &nbsp;I think it could be a great outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/co-ord-or-not#post-2352931 Thu, 15 Feb 2024 23:10:05 +0000 Style Fan 2352931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like it has potential. I like Angie's idea of adding something orange. I am not a matchy-matchy person. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/co-ord-or-not#post-2352929 Thu, 15 Feb 2024 22:32:36 +0000 Jules 2352929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bet you can make this work.

An outfit lab would be great! I think it would depend a lot on what they are paired with, but the potential is there for sure! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/co-ord-or-not#post-2352913 Thu, 15 Feb 2024 19:22:47 +0000 Suz 2352913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the right top or scarf could definitely bring it together and it could work.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/co-ord-or-not#post-2352908 Thu, 15 Feb 2024 19:06:29 +0000 Jenni NZ 2352908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m not sure if they would be similar enough for me. But I agree with unfrumped that maybe a top could bring them together.

Shoes too. I vote something orange to go with your hair :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/co-ord-or-not#post-2352886 Thu, 15 Feb 2024 16:31:15 +0000 unfrumped 2352886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m not sure it works , but then I’m very ticky about undertones in my tonal outfits. The colors might be different without being different enough. I know that technically we can wear whatever we want, but I’m just going out there. </p> <p>If you expand to think “ tonal” coord rather than “ green”, the olive blazer would look fab with black or navy bottoms , especially softened or “ washed” versions. </p> <p>But, do go ahead with tryons IRL, &amp; different lighting. It may well be that the right top brings them together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/co-ord-or-not#post-2352868 Thu, 15 Feb 2024 14:44:52 +0000 Sisi 2352868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it can work.

I see what you're saying about the more muted olive of the blazer but think they're fine together.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/co-ord-or-not#post-2352852 Thu, 15 Feb 2024 10:41:22 +0000 harmonica 2352852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Matching sets have grown on me lately. I’ve never bought one myself, though it’s on my radar. Then I remembered my olive blazer I used to wear all the time and my new wide leg trousers. They are not the same olive green, but do they still go together? Maybe the blazer is too muted? I don’t know.</p> <p>PS. I don’t mind different shades of the same colour, but they have to go well together. </p>
