I was specifically looking for a leopard scarf with tones that echo my coloring. I was trying to avoid any orange or gold tones. This one has black, grey and taupe- YAY! The shoes have an orange-y copper background, but they're not next to my face so that doesn't bother me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-438838 Thu, 06 Oct 2011 22:55:36 +0000 Aida 438838@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks cute! To me it works because it reads as a monochromatic outfit, with pattern/color accents coming from the two leopard pieces. That scarf is awesome by the way, looks really lovely next to your hair! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-438449 Thu, 06 Oct 2011 15:08:31 +0000 Lisa 438449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-438228 Thu, 06 Oct 2011 04:15:46 +0000 Carole 438228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit!

I think you could wear this as-is! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-438024 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 23:29:56 +0000 Anonymous 438024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suzanne M: You are a dear to have fixed the tones in the photo. Thank you!</p> <p>Suz: You will be fine with the small. I know what you mean about your almost IT measurements. It's a fine line with many of us. For my secondary body type I wanted to put "All of them" for my designation. I have apple tendencies with my tummy, I have a slight hourglass curve, by hips are bigger than my bustline, so in that I'm like a pear, and I have to avoid recangular cut tops unless I want to look like a rectangle! </p> <p>As for the outfit, when I put all of this on, my first reaction was, "If I saw a woman in the store with this on, I would not cringe, or maybe even notice that she was breaking rules." Maybe because of the low contrast thing. Thanks for all of your kind comments everyone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437701 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 15:52:46 +0000 Sarah 437701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it works great!

There was a 25% off coupon online, too! So I ordered. No xs available. If it doesn't fit I can send back, but if it does, it was a deal. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437672 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 15:31:16 +0000 Suz 437672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Claire! I think the small might actually work for me, too, because my shoulders are about 39" around, so pretty close to yours. </p> <p>In my on paper measurements I sound like an IT, but IRL the impression is somehow a bit different—more rectangle/slim hourglass. So weird how that works! </p> <p>I saw it on sale for $25 CAN online and can order and return if it doesn't fit at no cost, so what the heck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437582 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 13:55:59 +0000 Anonymous 437582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great casual look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437488 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 11:59:38 +0000 Kat 437488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As yet another who generally isn't a fan of denim on denim,I have to say that you have shown how very well it can be done! You look great and could absolutely wear it out of the house just like this no additional color or contrast needed (though I'm sure you could work it that way as well). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437477 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 11:22:29 +0000 ButterflyLady 437477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A big thumbs up from me - I love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437473 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 11:16:45 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 437473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have resisted opening this thread because I thought it would be hard to like the look. I am surprised because I totally like it. I don't think you need more color. I think it works because there is interest and separation between the dark denim pieces. Well done. It isn't easy to take a WNTW and make it work well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437463 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 10:53:02 +0000 suzanne m 437463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This totally works. The long top provides relief between the two denims. Love that scarf! Here's a somewhat color-corrected pic so everyone can see it al better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437453 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 10:02:15 +0000 Deborah 437453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In theory no, but in practice a huge yay. Claire this looks great. Great haul. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437436 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 08:27:08 +0000 Aunty 437436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonderful!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437417 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 05:53:14 +0000 AJ 437417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I likey! I don't think you need to add more color since the double leopard adds the visual interest. Also right now all the horizontal lines are subtle since the colors blend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437396 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 05:10:53 +0000 catgirl 437396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great look! Like Mo, I'm generally averse to double-denim, so this is out of my comfort zone, but I can see from your outfit how it can work to perfection. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437388 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 04:38:42 +0000 san 437388@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow you have mastered the denim on denim. You have introduced a scarf and other accessories that break up the denim. Good job! I'm learnig from this, thank you. I love this outfit on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437359 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 03:04:07 +0000 Anonymous 437359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everybody! Like I said, I might not go out the door exactly like this....I think it needs some color or some more contrast somewhere, but it's nice to give myself "persmission" to wear these together if I need to.</p> <p>Yes, Suz! I got the scarf and the jacket at Old Navy. I was afraid you didn't have access to one. It was fate. I was killing time until TJMaxx opened. I walked in and saw the sign "Cropped Denim Jackets" and grabbed the X-small and the small (there were only one of each) and headed to the dressing room. I saw the scarf on my way and snagged it too. </p> <p>I ended up with the small. The x-small was not broad enough in the shoulders and the sleeves were really really tight. ( I liked the way it fit in the torso, though, being small busted). It was marked at $39.99US and I was hesitating. It was not in my budget or on my list.</p> <p>I wore it out of the dressing room with the scarf on to put the x-small back on the rack. Just then, some other shoppers caught sight of me and started saying, "Oh, I like that!" and they all wanted to try one on. I panicked since I had the last of my size and bought it because I was afraid not to! </p> <p>Now there is no way it's going back if YOU like it Suz! I think you might be able to wear the x-small. My bust is 33" but my shoulders are 40" around so that's why I needed to size up....but it does have some stretch which makes it really comfortable.</p> <p>Oh, and when I checked out, my receipt says "item discount" and it only rang up at $29.99US! Yay! The scarf was $12.94US. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437336 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 02:40:19 +0000 Suz 437336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Claire, is that the Old Navy jacket? You wear it like a million dollars. What is the sizing like on that? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437335 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 02:39:15 +0000 Queen Mum 437335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437334 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 02:39:14 +0000 modgrl 437334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, I will admit I was against double leopard before but I think they are far enough apart that it works. Very nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437332 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 02:36:24 +0000 Mo 437332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to say I like this, too! I'm also not a denim on denim gal so that's saying a lot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437326 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 02:31:00 +0000 Sona 437326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>what Suz said!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437322 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 02:26:52 +0000 Diana 437322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it! (And I am usually not a fan at all of denim on denim.) I think the double dose of leopard actually helps break up all the denim a bit. Very well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437321 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 02:26:41 +0000 Suz 437321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You can totally do this. YES!! </p> <p>LOVE these pieces on you, alone or together or remixed in some other way. Good purchases, Claire! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/double-denim-and-leopard#post-437316 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 02:19:33 +0000 Anonymous 437316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay here it all is in all it's glory. I think the picture got taken in sepia tone by accident. </p> <p>I probably wouldn't wear this exactly as is, but you get the idea. When considering breaking the denim jacket with jeans "rule", I realized it doesn't look as "rodeo" (that's cowboy rodeo--not Rodeo Drive) as I feared. </p>
