No comments except from DH who loved it. </p> <p>Ornella - a cobalt top is an <i>essential</i> The white belt I agree freshens everything. I realized it was necessary to complete this look. I'd been on the hunt for one for awhile now. A low contrast belt just wouldn't cut it. </p> <p>TraceyLiz - you bring up a great point, you really have to own the look if you're going top pop your collar (sometimes they have a mind of their own and you have to be comfortable with whatever they're doing). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/directly-inspired-by-angie#post-1047667 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 21:21:33 +0000 TraceyLiz65 1047667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That color with the white collar is fabulous on you! &nbsp;I love people who can pop a collar and always think it adss a bit of sophistication. &nbsp;I admire it so much in others, but just had a discussion with my daughter today over thinking it doesn't match my personality and she wholeheartedly agreed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/directly-inspired-by-angie#post-1047644 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 20:26:45 +0000 Ornella 1047644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG, this screams "get a cobalt top" to me. Wonderful. I especially love the white belt and how it freshens everything. Not to mention the red bag.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/directly-inspired-by-angie#post-1047611 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 18:57:32 +0000 Anonymous 1047611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So Angie. So Day Vies. So sensational. You always look amazing, but I wondered if you had any comments on this outfit today. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/directly-inspired-by-angie#post-1047605 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 18:46:54 +0000 Anonymous 1047605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/directly-inspired-by-angie#post-1047597 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 18:39:42 +0000 Day Vies 1047597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz - wiser words have never been spoken. I think I am truly begining to internalize that notion. It's like understanding something intellectually but not truly buying in until you experience it yourself. You are making me really consider that style can only be style when you bring yourself to it. That's why merely copying an outfit exactly sometimes doesn't work. You're so thought provoking! </p> <p>K - I agree. It's hard to say what exactly Angie would have done but I was thinking of <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2013/03/01/unstructured-structure-on-a-windy-day/" rel="nofollow">this outfit </a>&nbsp;of Angie's when I pulled together my own outfit last night. I can't wear things <i>exactly</i> the way Angie does but I love her minimalism, use of color and contrast to create pow-factor in an outfit. When I combine her aesthetic with my own love of&nbsp;navy and white combinations (and more jewelry)&nbsp;-- this is what I get. </p> <p>Thistle/Von - the booties were a&nbsp;perfect paring with this outfit since I do not own a white bootie and have a 15 minute walk from my train to work every day. I also did not want to call that much attention to my feet so the print works to dampen the flash of bright color.&nbsp;I think I'll try these with&nbsp;a gray pinstripe trouser and/or a black pinstripe&nbsp;trouser it will all depend on the hem&nbsp;whether it works out or not. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/directly-inspired-by-angie#post-1047486 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 15:47:03 +0000 K.

The shirt isn't as&nbsp;necessary but it's a little cool here and the shirt&nbsp;gives&nbsp;form to this boxy sweater to create the shape I want. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/directly-inspired-by-angie#post-1047315 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 13:13:32 +0000 jayne 1047315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Squee, you got the booties! &nbsp;Love the whole outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/directly-inspired-by-angie#post-1047306 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 12:52:49 +0000 Von 1047306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love those booties and wanted to see them in an outfit, I like it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/directly-inspired-by-angie#post-1047298 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 12:39:00 +0000 Sona 1047298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it. For a more fluid look you could&nbsp;omit the shirt and&nbsp;the belt and semi tuck the cobalt sweater next time: two looks in one ( a tiny capsule if you will) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/directly-inspired-by-angie#post-1047287 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 12:08:46 +0000 Jjsloane 1047287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks great on you!

I rooted around in my closet and dug up my GAP bootcut trousers in<br /> navy. I dug up my SE Pettys since I’d paired them with the GAP bootcuts before.<br /> I almost got stumped on the flowy top – I wanted an intense color in particular.<br /> I was a little afraid it wouldn’t happen then BINGO I found it! Earlier this<br /> year, I bought a lovely linen cobalt blue sweater from J. Crew.&nbsp; It’s flowy, and perfect for this<br /> silhouette. I thought a white belt a la Angie would set off this tonal palette<br /> and bookend the Pettys. Then to really give the Angie effect, I added a crisp<br /> white shirt under the sweater.</p> <p>Can I say I simply couldn’t wait to put this on?! I felt<br /> like a kid waiting on the first day of school.&nbsp;</p> <p>I’m wearing:</p> <p>Talbots – white button-down</p> <p>J. Crew – linen cobalt sweater </p> <p>Gap – bootcut trousers</p> <p>Sam Edelman – booties </p> <p>Keneth Cole Reaction &nbsp;- tote&nbsp;</p>
