I love the combo of the mustard jeans with the navy checks! I like the tucked in version the best. And your new bag is fab-you-lous!

I went with #2 - tucked shirt but rolled jeans (sorry Angie!)...not too cold around here, but I did wish I'd thrown on a jacket with the rain! I decided I liked the belt with these shoes, but untucked would have worked as well. Suz and Shannon - you hit the nail on the head. I think I'm always a bit uncomfortable outside of my typical neutrals! :) The jeans are from Target - nothing fancy. Went a couple sizes up - they are supposed to be skinnies, but these are about 2 sizes too "big". They are super comfortable and the red jeans I posted a while back are the same.

This looks awesome, I don't see why you think it's not working? Love this color combo on you. Personally I like it tucked because I like the belt showing, but both look charming. Love the shoes.

But... something seems off in the proportions, comparing to your usual WIW's. I think it's the blazer. Try it with a more cropped topper such as a cropped cardi, or a slightly longer option. If longer, do it soft, drapey and in a neutral colour like your purse's? Don't get me wrong, it is super nice as is. It's just b/c you say you feel something is off. tayleigh on "Feel like this looked better in my head!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/feel-like-this-looked-better-in-my-head#post-810496 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 01:41:04 +0000 tayleigh 810496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like it! Any of them would work, but I think I like #2 the best.

I have a personal preference for version #3 but I don't think you can go wrong with any of these. As Suz mentioned, maybe it's just a bit out of your comfort zone in terms of colour mix? How did you feel in the outfit as the day wore on? Smashing handbag BTW!

But knowing you, it might be just a LEEETLE bit too far from your preferred palette of neutrals, right? I actually think it looks great, but I can see what made you a bit uncomfortable. Nicole D on "Feel like this looked better in my head!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/feel-like-this-looked-better-in-my-head#post-810314 Sun, 06 Jan 2013 22:08:21 +0000 Nicole D 810314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ WHat are you talking about? It looks great! I prefer number 1 but I think all 3 are very nice. The colours work well together and the styling is spot on. cobaltblue on "Feel like this looked better in my head!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/feel-like-this-looked-better-in-my-head#post-810306 Sun, 06 Jan 2013 21:55:26 +0000 cobaltblue 810306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ #2 is my favorite, but #1 would be great too if it's too chilly for exposed ankles. You look great. texstyle on "Feel like this looked better in my head!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/feel-like-this-looked-better-in-my-head#post-810303 Sun, 06 Jan 2013 21:51:01 +0000 texstyle 810303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Darn, now I want mustard jeans! It looks great in all 3 variations but I think I like #1 or #2 because I like the belt showing. Wonder if you'd mind sharing where you got the jeans in that color? catgirl on "Feel like this looked better in my head!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/feel-like-this-looked-better-in-my-head#post-810281 Sun, 06 Jan 2013 21:04:35 +0000 catgirl 810281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Well, being Team RATE I like 3 best, but all are fantastic.

Headed over to a friend's house today for a little get together with the girls. I wanted to try pairing my mustard jeans with navy but I'm not entirely sure this works. Thoughts? And if it does work, which is best? 1. Shirt tucked (1 & 2) or untucked (3)? 2. Jeans rolled (2) or full-length (1 & 3)? Bonus shot of my sweetie's Christmas gift in 3 - my new handbag! I needed one in this color. TIA!
