I especially like how the pendant breaks up the line of the turtleneck and&nbsp;adds some extra color and interest while harmonizing with the rest of the outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/failed-beatnik#post-1126040 Wed, 01 Jan 2014 16:42:32 +0000 LAR101 1126040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it's simplicity, clean lines&nbsp;and play of texture and color&nbsp;of the sweater &amp; necklace. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/failed-beatnik#post-1126039 Wed, 01 Jan 2014 16:36:30 +0000 Hil 1126039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For a just for fun outfit, it's lovely!

Happy New Year! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/failed-beatnik#post-1126001 Wed, 01 Jan 2014 15:00:20 +0000 MuseumGal 1126001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is not my most successful outfit ever, but it was fun to wear, so what the heck.&nbsp; I pilfered this navy turtleneck from my husband's side of the closet, and when I pulled it on with the skinny jeans, I thought, "Hey!&nbsp; I'm a beatnik!"&nbsp; I don't have ballet flats or loafers, so substituted my black brogues and rolled my cuffs a few times.&nbsp; I added an Afghani lapiz pendant, which admittedly is more 70s than 50s, but I was going for fun rather than authenticity.&nbsp; For an outer layer I used this heathered navy cutaway cardigan, which pretty much killed the while beatnik thing, but it was wonderfully cozy for hours of dissertating.&nbsp; The whole thing is actually navy (turtleneck, jeans, cardigan), rather than the black that it seems in the photos.</p> <p>Feedback always welcome, but remember, this was for fun, not necessarily style. </p>
