I never said I could actually WALK in them!</p> <p>Una, I'd love to see you copy that inspiration picture! I challenge you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-505297 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 18:37:22 +0000 catgirl 505297@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, these are great! I love your perfect slouchy pants... And I can copycat your second look, because I just thrifted a great light blue button down! Awesome inspiration! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-505263 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 17:50:34 +0000 Vicki 505263@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Parsley, your new slouchy pants, look fabulous on you! I love the way you've styled them with the white shirt-vest and the black sweater. Inspiration photos are so helpful to me, too, and I have a similar navy blue blazer dilemma, because I have a double-breasted one, but want one like in your photo #8. My dilemma is that the one I have is made so nicely, with fine fabric, I had to replace it. Great photos and you do PC and Tomboy, beautifully. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-505169 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 15:48:46 +0000 Jem 505169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your new pants look great (and I love your bracelet)! I especially like #1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-505164 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 15:41:51 +0000 Anonymous 505164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What fun! I love the new sloucy trousers and I admire your heel-wearing ability! Your inspiration photos inspire me too! *sigh* The perfect navy blazer. I know it is out there somewhere. :)</p> <p>ed. I LOVE your jewelry! Super-fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-505141 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 15:19:06 +0000 Parsley 505141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for your nice comments!</p> <p>Aida and Sarah, I'll try tucking a more fitted sweater and see how it looks. That may not be the best look with a slightly bulgy mid-section. I love Angie's look but we do not have the same build! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-505066 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 13:34:27 +0000 kimlee 505066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the sloucy wool pants and the way that you have styled them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-505058 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 13:27:43 +0000 Jonesy 505058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really fabulous pants, and you have styled them so perfectly! I love them with the vest and white button down, and I think they look awesome with the black sweater! Also love your classic, inspired look too. You are on a roll :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-505042 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 12:32:32 +0000 sarah 505042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely, Parsley, you look terrific. I love them all. I'm curious about switching out the dolman tneck with a fitted tneck in 5, so you aren't slouchy on top and bottom (similar to Angie's outfit here, I guess <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2011/11/02/docs-tweed-suspenders-and-smiles/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2011/11/.....nd-smiles/</a>). Great trousers! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-505034 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 10:55:49 +0000 Jjsloane 505034@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your interpretations! The pants are fab. I've been looking for a vest. Now I must have one to copy you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-505020 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 07:52:14 +0000 Aida 505020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your new slouchy trousers are fabulous!! I too think they'll look good with tucked tops to show off the pleats. Love they way you styled them in #1. Great copycat outfit too! Fun red pumps with that outfit :} </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-504966 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 05:33:11 +0000 Makrame 504966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are very, very chic and fun! The wool pants are great, I like both ways you styled them. I might need to copycat your copycat look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-504962 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 05:21:47 +0000 Parsley 504962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Sveta,<br /> I haven't tried tucking anything in with those pants yet, but I'll have to try. Tucking isn't usually too flattering on me unless I wear a jacket or cardigan on top, though, so the pleats might show even less!</p> <p>San, Thank you! That's a lizard "dog collar" bracelet. It's probably on the edgy side for me, but I really like it. Here's a picture:</p> <p>Aww, thanks, Helen! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-504961 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 05:18:54 +0000 HelenInCanada 504961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - so fab! The slouchy tapered pants and vest suit you amazingly well! You look like a million bucks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-504947 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 04:51:44 +0000 san 504947@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your new slouchy wool pants! What a great fit and you have styled them in a great way! Is that a watch or bracelet on your wrist? It's very pretty.<br /> I love your inspiration pictures and you did a good job in recreating your own. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-504938 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 04:32:57 +0000 Sveta 504938@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like these pants! Have you tried to tuck into them - I feel that they are the best when nothing is on top of the pleats.<br /> I like your inspiration picture and like your interpretation of it - very simple and slick! I am not sure it this is tomboy or not but it looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copy-cat-inspiration-tomboy-looks#post-504925 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 04:20:06 +0000 Parsley 504925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just got some new slouchy gray wool pants that I'd had my eye on for months and the price finally came down to something I was willing to pay. (60% off- SCORE!) I love these pants- they have a pleated front, are tapered to a satin-backed cuff that can be turned up or down.</p> <p>So today I was playing around today with some looks partly inspired by Angie's tomboy look, partly Inès de la Fressange, and partly by a picture I had on my inspiration page.</p> <p>#1-4 Akris Punto gray flannel pants, Chicos white shirt, Talbots vest, Stuart Weitzman patent heeled oxfords</p> <p>#5-6 same pants with Theory batwing sweater. #6 shows the cuffs rolled up, but it's not a very good picture.</p> <p>#7 Inès de la Fressange<br /> #8 Inspiration picture (unknown)</p> <p>#9-10 My modification of the inspiration look: Sandro tux jacket, J Crew chambray shirt, AG jeans, Vaneli red pumps</p> <p>I'm on the lookout for a navy blazer more like the ones in 7&amp;8, but haven't found the right one yet.</p> <p>Comments, suggestions, critiques welcome! </p>
