That last outfit just WOWS with style and fabness - what a terrific pattern mix. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/experiments-in-pattern-mixing/page/2#post-509348 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 06:35:43 +0000 AJ 509348@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#3 rocks my boat!!

Thank you so much for your enthusiasm for this outfit.<br /> I'm wondering how to improve the first outfit and Jonesy, you have a wonderful idea to try a denim shirt instead of the black turtleneck. Looking at the photos, I'm thinking that maybe those boots are not so fab with this skirt. I have to cinch the buckles tighter than they were meant to be to fit the leg for skirts, but it may be too much. The skirt, like several I own, is a size too big so that it sits low on the waist and gives more length. It's a pencil that fits more like an a-line. It's Brooks Brothers via Goodwill. Should I have it narrowed to be more fitted? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/experiments-in-pattern-mixing#post-509126 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 02:27:50 +0000 cobaltblue 509126@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoa, I love #3!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/experiments-in-pattern-mixing#post-509099 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 02:01:03 +0000 Debora 509099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! Outfit #3 is amazing! I remember having a striped blouse like that years ago. Wish I still had it in my closet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/experiments-in-pattern-mixing#post-509079 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 01:37:44 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 509079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree! #3 is super! The patterns are amazing together, and everything works on you from head to toe. The first outfit works for me, too, even though it didn't stun me like the second one did. I like the way the glen plaid reads as grey to go with the sweater, and the way the rounded buckle on the belt (love the belt, btw!) echoes the rose shapes, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/experiments-in-pattern-mixing#post-509069 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 01:27:59 +0000 Angie 509069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE #3.

Wow!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/experiments-in-pattern-mixing#post-508996 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 00:35:58 +0000 Jonesy 508996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also love #3! I wonder if the black top is too stark/dark for the floral cardigan and skirt? Something like a chambray or light denim shirt might work? (then you could kill two trendy birds with one stone--denim shirt and pattern mixing :). Just my two cents. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/experiments-in-pattern-mixing#post-508987 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 00:32:44 +0000 Jjsloane 508987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can' t tell what doesn't work for me on 1-2, but I know I like 3! I think you got the combination just right with that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/experiments-in-pattern-mixing#post-508983 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 00:29:21 +0000 Deborah 508983@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy I am very new to pattern mixing but #3 has just blown my socks of (or would have should I be wearing socks)!

I think I might be able to save it from the donate pile if I copy this. </p>
