Another thing you could try is to add a white button-down shirt under the sweater, with collar and cuffs peeking out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grey-and-red-office-look-glasses#post-116678 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 02:59:31 +0000 Kari 116678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the color/texture of your sweater, and you do look great belting the sweater. (I still haven't grown comfortable belting unless it's over a cardigan - I'm glad you are bolder!)<br /> I do think you could also add a scarf at the neck - maybe tied cravat-style - without detracting too much from what you're wearing. Either way, that's a very sweet compliment from your husband. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grey-and-red-office-look-glasses#post-116629 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 01:47:53 +0000 shana 116629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit Kristine! I love neutrals paired this way. I'd love to see a scarf though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grey-and-red-office-look-glasses#post-116606 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 00:49:57 +0000 yublocka 116606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice outfit Kristine! I like the longer pants. Maybe a pair of coloured chunky earrings would give the top half an extra bit of punch if you feel a scarf is too much? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grey-and-red-office-look-glasses#post-116551 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 20:29:27 +0000 medusa 116551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab! This is a great outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grey-and-red-office-look-glasses#post-116478 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 17:37:58 +0000 Kristine 116478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks queenie and Carole! </p> <p>Wide belts scare me a little, but I'll try! It took me a while to get used to belting sweaters in general, but now it's one of my favorite tricks. Thankfully my co-worker no longer says "your belt isn't holding up anything". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grey-and-red-office-look-glasses#post-116463 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 16:50:12 +0000 Carole 116463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit as is! You could change it up with a scarf, belt or necklace! Classic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grey-and-red-office-look-glasses#post-116458 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 16:24:18 +0000 Queen Mum 116458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>much better- perfect in fact.<br /> Great outfit- very polished and put together. I am wondering though about a wider belt. It might add just a tad more polish and mod to the outfit? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grey-and-red-office-look-glasses#post-116444 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 15:31:09 +0000 Kristine 116444@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gotcha, thanks! </p> <p>Better?</p> <p><a href="http://i832.photobucket.com/albums/zz246/JasperOrmis/StyleQuest/1-11-10longer-1.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i832.photobucket.com/al.....nger-1.jpg</a></p> <p>They were hemmed by hand and not creased or faded, so I just snipped it out (and folded it the other way for a minute to smooth it out). I like the pants longer, it makes the boot toe less elongated also. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grey-and-red-office-look-glasses#post-116441 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 15:23:20 +0000 Ele 116441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry, Kristine! PPL is a phrase that gets thrown around a lot here. I forget that some people might not be familiar with it! </p> <p>It stands for Perfect Pants Length. Here is Angie's original post on it:<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2006/05/16/perfect-pant-lengths-please/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2006/05/.....hs-please/</a></p> <p>Specific to skinny jeans:<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2007/08/07/perfect-pants-length-the-exception-proves-the-rule/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2007/08/.....-the-rule/</a></p> <p>Some other posts about it:<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2007/02/19/why-fashion-models-break-the-perfect-pant-lengths-rule/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2007/02/.....gths-rule/</a><br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2009/03/18/the-horror-of-ankle-length-pants/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2009/03/.....gth-pants/</a></p> <p>Hope that helps! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grey-and-red-office-look-glasses#post-116438 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 15:19:25 +0000 Kristine 116438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Ele. Is that proper pants length? A bit longer? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grey-and-red-office-look-glasses#post-116437 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 15:18:34 +0000 Kristine 116437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Louise! I like the simplicity of it. I feel like it could use a touch of something more. I tried a woven scarf, but my husband said it took away from the elegance of it. I don't believe he's ever called one of my outfits elegant! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grey-and-red-office-look-glasses#post-116435 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 15:17:36 +0000 Ele 116435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, love it- very professional but still fun and stylish! </p> <p>My only pointer would be to consider getting some fab flats to wear with those pants. It looks like they aren't PPL with the shoes you've got on here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grey-and-red-office-look-glasses#post-116427 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 14:58:20 +0000 Louise 116427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it. Perfect as it is no pointers from me x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/grey-and-red-office-look-glasses#post-116426 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 14:56:01 +0000 Kristine 116426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's today outfit. I'm pretty happy with it. Red boots (Aerosole), red studded belt (Fossil), new grey sweater (Calvin Klein), black dress pants. And I dug out my glasses (hard to see, but reddish)! Comments and pointers welcome!</p> <p><a href="http://i832.photobucket.com/albums/zz246/JasperOrmis/StyleQuest/1-11-10-1.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i832.photobucket.com/al.....1-10-1.jpg</a> </p>
