I need to go to bed now and not think about desserts anymore... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554977 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 05:14:42 +0000 ManidipaM 554977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love this, Jem! What a fresh look for this season. What about navy or darker green boat shoes with that --- too preppy for you? </p> <p>Nude sandals may be nice too --- but wait! is that the waffle cone weighing in?! </p> <p>I'm so glad I'd just had a fix of icy dairy dessert with lots of melon, strawberries and kiwi before I got to this thread. You fab ladies are now tempting me to go back some lemon semi-freddo...mmm! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554884 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 03:33:30 +0000 Sarah A 554884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this combo but it definitely reads a bit preppy to me with the green pink and navy... Prep is not something I avoid though and I like sweetness of this as well as the styling suggestions for both pieces with denim! I learn something new everytime I log on! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554752 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 23:20:49 +0000 Jem 554752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Claire and Vicki! I would love to find some white jeans to go with the sweater. That seems to be tricky to find, though. I will be on the hunt. Thanks so much for your helpful suggestions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554737 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 23:00:27 +0000 Vicki 554737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both of these items are great colors on you and I really like the ideas from modgrl and Angie to pair the green jacket with navy or white denim. That would work really well. The pink skirt and green jacket seem to be in friendly tones with each other, and from your photos, look to be good together. Gelato, frozen yogurt! It's all good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554736 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 22:53:43 +0000 Anonymous 554736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this combo even though the shirt, skirt and sweater don't match. I think you are more advanced at this styling than I am! Rita's suggestions are good, but I like this too. Lots of possibilities for remixing. I recently bought a hot pink skirt at Goodwill, and I'll be wearing it with navy/white patterned tops and either a blue or my (new) white denim jacket. You could also follow Angies bright jeans formula, though it's not that bright. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554714 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 22:29:25 +0000 christieanne 554714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Espresso gelato is my favorite but banana or mango sound divine (even on this cold day!). </p> <p>I think the outfit is Modern Preppy (green and pink always give me that vibe) so a spectator or bootie or edgier shoe would be my suggestion - anything non preppy. </p> <p>Pink skirt - could you wear with a denim jacket and edge it up a little. Way too cute to be an orphan. </p> <p>Changing buttons is killer idea - I have a jacket with gold buttons and I am a silver girl so now I have a project thanks to you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554692 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 22:02:48 +0000 Jem 554692@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Rae! I hadn't heard of that brand before. Their ads are really pretty! And, I do love those colors! It makes me want to go find a pretty blouse with those colors in it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554675 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 21:50:18 +0000 rae 554675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous! It reminds me of Mulberry's ad campaign for this season!<br /> <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=mulberry+ad+summer+2012&#038;um=1&#038;hl=en&#038;gbv=2&#038;tbm=isch&#038;source=lnt&#038;tbs=isz:l&#038;sa=X&#038;ei=R-xPT5TLH8WWiAKi2sC2Bg&#038;ved=0CBIQpwUoAQ" rel="nofollow">http://www.google.com/search?q.....CBIQpwUoAQ</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554632 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:57:36 +0000 Jem 554632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, now I have gelato and white denim homework. All of this ice cream talk *is* making me hungry! </p> <p>Rita, I do tend to like a bit of ALGO, it seems. I like the idea of a denim jacket. I'll have to see if the one I recently got will go with skirts, I haven't tried it. I also have a denim-ish shirt that I can try with the skirt, now that you mention it. I also really like the idea of faded denim bottoms with the sweater. Thanks for the ideas!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554627 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:53:11 +0000 modgrl 554627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can you do the striped shirt with the skirt, but without the sweater? or a denim jacket on top instead of the green sweater? I don't know why it just seems like a lot going on with pink, green stripes and the tipping on the sweater... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554623 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:51:50 +0000 Angie 554623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jem, navy is even better! Also like Rita's idea of adding faded or white denim bottoms. And you have gelato homework :)</p> <p>Shannon, mango would go down too. As would yoghurt and chocolate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554621 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:50:02 +0000 Jem 554621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Modgrl: You mean for the bottom? Yep, I will definitely wear the sweater with denim. I was trying to figure out what to wear with the skirt. I've had the skirt for a year and thought the sweater I picked up yesterday might work with it. You are right that white denim would be awesome with the sweater, I wish I had some, I will keep my eyes out for some! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554619 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:49:14 +0000 anchie 554619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like strawberry and pistachio to me! Really nice fresh spring combo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554614 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:46:20 +0000 modgrl 554614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is denim an option? You could do almost any wash denim, from light to vintage wash. White jeans would be very nice too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554612 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:44:45 +0000 Jem 554612@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie, so the stripes are OK? BTW, the shoes and stripes are navy, but I'm guessing that doesn't matter?</p> <p>I've never had gelato (I know, I should get out more...lol), so I think I will take my favorite, peppermint ice cream! I think that's appropriate, considering the skirt. haha </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554607 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:42:49 +0000 Transcona Shannon 554607@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mango for me please! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554604 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:41:38 +0000 Angie 554604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Actually, I think that the black shoes and your specs toughen up the look. FWIW :). And I love the sweetness too.</p> <p>Jem, I feel like banana gelato. Apple will also be good. How about you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554603 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:41:04 +0000 Transcona Shannon 554603@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's funny 'cause I like it BECAUSE it's sweet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554602 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:40:28 +0000 Kirti 554602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These colours remind me of a watermelon! I like it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554599 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:39:09 +0000 Jem 554599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see what you mean Modgrl, got any ideas? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554592 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:36:02 +0000 modgrl 554592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want to love it but it seems a little sweet. I want to toughen it up somehow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554591 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:35:47 +0000 Jem 554591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's funny Angie! Ice cream would be good... </p> <p>Meredith: I like the idea of spectator shoes. I've seen a few in magazines, etc that I have liked. I will have to keep my eye out for some of those. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554588 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:33:49 +0000 Angie 554588@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ice Cream tones! Love! Thumbs up. </p> <p>Now I feel like gelato. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554586 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:32:27 +0000 Meredith1953 554586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES!!! I thin it looks great together. Nice with the navy shoes! Spectator type shoes would look very cute also. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/green-sweater-take-2--does-it-go-with-this-skirt#post-554550 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:12:45 +0000 Jem 554550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It seems that most people liked the sweater yesterday, so I'm going to keep it. I may change the buttons to silver or tortoiseshell (I saw a Nannette Lepore jacket today that was green with tortoiseshell buttons). </p> <p> Anyway, I had this skirt in mind when I bought the sweater yesterday. It's a Talbot's skirt I got at Winner's at the end of summer last year and haven't worn yet. The pink is brighter in real life. I took these picture last night with my cell phone, so the lighting wasn't great, also excuse my messy closet in the pictures. :-)</p> <p>Also, what do you think about the striped shirt with it, if you even like the sweater and skirt together? The stripes and my shoes I have on are both navy. Styling suggestions and other ideas for this skirt are welcome! TIA! </p>
