Sounds like you both were a hit!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help/page/2#post-1008327 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 13:31:13 +0000 pil 1008327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your husband must have looked fabulous too - very snappy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help/page/2#post-1008265 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 07:12:50 +0000 Day Vies 1008265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just so that we're clear everyone, &nbsp;#1 won by a landslide, that's what I wore and it really did strike just the right note and happened to be popular outfit with friends and acquaintances&nbsp;who saw me.&nbsp;</p> <p>Suz -- I'm serious I'd love to see you dandify camo skinnies.&nbsp;</p> <p>Unfrumped - I have not tried the jacket or blouse with that skirt. Something to play with.&nbsp;</p> <p>Shannon - I am always pleased when I can blow you away. Yay! I'd love to see what camo + Urban Lady Prince looks like. I've already challenged Suz.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sheila- Thank you! I adore that top -- I'd been searching for something in that color for a while and I think I am going to try it with a skirt that's similar but slightly longer.&nbsp;</p> <p>Pil - DH wore a navy suit jacket, light yellow paisley tie,&nbsp;a french blue shirt with white collar and white&nbsp;french cuffs. His trousers were a gray glen plaid. To top it off he wore cherry brown shoes with a single monk strap. I have strongly&nbsp;influenced his wardrobe choices over the near 7 years we've been together, but I did not put together tonight's classic look -- he did that on his own. For the past 8 months he's really been impressing me with his outfit combinations.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help/page/2#post-1008197 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 03:37:58 +0000 Karie 1008197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am late to the party, but I hope you picked #1! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help/page/2#post-1008165 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 02:24:29 +0000 alyssaisacat 1008165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much for awarding me solution! *happy dance* yay my first badge thing! &lt;3 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help/page/2#post-1008138 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 01:18:09 +0000 Echo 1008138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am far too late to have any impact on your decision, but I just wanted to chime in that you look smashing in #1.

I love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1008114 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 00:41:46 +0000 pil 1008114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love #1, especially based on what you say about the event. What is your husband wearing? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1008104 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 00:31:23 +0000 Sheila 1008104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hope you are enjoying your evening...late to the party but #2 is my favorite. You look amazing in that fuschia-violet top. Gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1008097 Sun, 18 Aug 2013 00:03:54 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1008097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm ridiculously late chiming in - you're probably already at your event! You look fab in both but #1 blows me away!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1008042 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 22:59:52 +0000 unfrumped 1008042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe for some other time, I wonder how the white blouse &amp; black jacket look with the print skirt? I love the blouse and jacket combo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1008029 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 22:48:37 +0000 Lori 1008029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you're going for something really&nbsp;edgy, #1. The camo does it.&nbsp; But if you're going for glam edge, go for #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007920 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 19:56:20 +0000 Suz 1007920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh! The challenge is on! Now I just have to buy every single one of those pieces, LOL!&nbsp;</p> <p>Actually, I almost bought the camo jeans that Lisa got from NAS, but they didn't look good on me, alas.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have to say I prefer your version to the original. Yours is more elegant!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007919 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 19:54:15 +0000 cobaltblue 1007919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another latecomer, but I had to stop and express my admiration for #1! I love the pristine, white ruffles with camo. And camo with gold! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007913 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 19:28:57 +0000 Beth Ann 1007913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chicago Dance scene?&nbsp; #1, oh yes, oh yes!&nbsp; You had me at camo and ruffles.&nbsp; Both are necessary!</p> <p>#2 is perfectly lovely, of course, but you'll have more opportunities to enjoy its fabness! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007887 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 18:56:36 +0000 Thistle 1007887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Late to the party, but I love #1! No contest between the two, IMHO. Hope you have a fab time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007882 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 18:46:25 +0000 Day Vies 1007882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>K -- I brought the topic up on the forum but I was railing against the machine because I think the rule is stupid and maddening. I'll have to have a look at InStyle to read that article.&nbsp;</p> <p>Angie -- to have your vote definitely means I'll wear #1 with confidence ;-)&nbsp;</p> <p>Annagybe - I thought it was was an interesting combo too!&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007879 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 18:39:20 +0000 annagybe 1007879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore #1. I grey camo skinnies and gold shoes, hmmm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007876 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 18:36:41 +0000 Angie 1007876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for #1. An 11 out of 10. Have a fab night. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007875 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 18:35:42 +0000 Kristin L 1007875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to pick #1. You look amazing!</p> <p>And was it you that brought up the rule about curvier ladies should stay away from small prints? I read an interesting article in Instyle this month&nbsp;talking about it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007871 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 18:29:11 +0000 Day Vies 1007871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Diana - yes it is an urban arty event it's benefitting a national AIDS organization so I think #1 is going to win hands down. I'll post pics of the finished look later tonight or tomorrow.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sarah -- thank you! Just for you I'll post a link to&nbsp;the inspiration so you can see what inspired me.&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://pinterest.com/pin/294211788127043041/">http://pinterest.com/pin/294211788127043041/</a></p> <p>Ingunn -- I had originally picked this outfit for date night but date night actually happened earlier in the day&nbsp;than I anticipated so I was actually feeling a little sad that I would not get to wear this outfit. This is why I took to the forum to ask you ladies which outfit. I think it was a self-fulfilling prophecy I wanted to wear it for something&nbsp;-- Yay! I think #1 wins.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Suz - Good thing you were wearing a crash helmet I don't want you to hurt yourself :D. Yep, I'm convinced #1 is the way to go The arts are all about self expression and this is where I am today. Weeee! Have a look at the inspiration pic I'd LOVE to see your interpretation of a camo look. Could you work that into your Urban Prince look? (Challenge!) </p> <p>Joi -- I like the suggestion. The jewelry&nbsp;will depend on how I decide to do my hair and my hair depends on the weather. I'm not sure what I will come up with something new or something tried and true.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007870 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 18:28:36 +0000 In My Joi 1007870@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Going for&nbsp;edgy? I say #1 all day long! Perhaps a large jeweled statement necklace and smaller earring will tie in a&nbsp;touch of glam </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007859 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 18:12:54 +0000 Suz 1007859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG. I am so in love with # 1 I can hardly speak! Fainting with fuchsia crash helmet!!!&nbsp;</p> <p>I have a lot of experience attending artsy events. I think this one is superb. As Nancylee said, on the top, you look classic and elegant. But you've incorporated the trend with sass. I would see you and right away know that you are smart, stylish, and fun!&nbsp;</p> <p>The second outfit is extremely pretty and I like it also -- but I think for this event, the first one wins.&nbsp;</p> <p></p> <p>ETA I love the simple drop earring with the gold shoes, too. Subtle shine.&nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007856 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 17:59:18 +0000 MovingFashionForward 1007856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I so love #1 I'm thinking of copying it! Super-cool and fabulous!</p> <p>Sarah </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007851 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 17:31:46 +0000 Ingunn 1007851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both, but I prefer #1 for you. It is so fab! The juxtaposition of feminine and masculine is so fresh and current. Enjoy your evening! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007849 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 17:29:27 +0000 Diana 1007849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love #1. I assume this is a more urban, arty event, right? #2 reads more garden party/ ladies who lunch type of event to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007846 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 17:24:20 +0000 Day Vies 1007846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Susie - I have black shoes -- but I think the gold ones add a little something more I love camo with white and gold I have pin on one of my pinterest boards that is the inspiration for this outfit and it includes gold.&nbsp;</p> <p>Nancylee -- Love your analysis you're a great salesperson! I agree that Angie would probably say something similar. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007837 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 17:16:22 +0000 nancylee 1007837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like both outfits, but as many have said #1 is more trendy/statement and #2 is more conventional. &nbsp;</p> <p>I vote #1. &nbsp;It's a little edgier because of the camo pants, but still dressy modern classic when you consider the blouse and jacket. &nbsp;I think Angie would say this is the perfect way to incorporate a trend. &nbsp;Plus, it's an arty event.</p> <p>Have fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007835 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 17:15:57 +0000 Anonymous 1007835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote #1 too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/event-tonight-and-i-need-your-help#post-1007831 Sat, 17 Aug 2013 17:14:39 +0000 chewyspaghetti 1007831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them both and think both would be appropriate. If you want to go edgier, go for #1 </p>
