				<description>&#060;p&#062;I like this combo.&#038;nbsp; The colours look so lovely with your hair and skin.&#038;nbsp; Nice pattern mixing.&#038;nbsp; Flannel and cashmere sound perfect to me right now.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;What's wrong indeed?!  Those two pieces were made to be worn together.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I'm thinking along with SarahD8 about &#034;hectic pattern and calm color.&#034;  I suppose &#034;lively color and calm pattern&#034; would also be effective.  &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Beautiful bookshelves!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Wow, gingham in the winter! Never would've occurred to me, and it really does work with the sweater. Like Elizabeth P, I personally might feel too busy in it. And I LOVE those built-in bookshelves in your bedroom. :)&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Ummlila -- I have the same problem layering shirts -- I can only do it with rather loose, chunky sweaters.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I like it! &#034;hectic pattern, calm colour&#034; is a great formulation. I wonder if I could do something like that.... Thanks for the inspiration!

You have me thinking about gingham.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Hi Suz! It looks like such a very pretty sweater you have on today!&#038;nbsp;&#060;br /&#062;Its pattern is very nice, and it looks like the perfect layering piece for a blouse or shirt.&#060;br /&#062;However, I agree with Elizabeth about this particular combination. To my eye, the happy, crispier, more frank checkered print looks like it's talking over and not listening to the subdued, sensual design on the sweater. But you are right about the winter light. I can't see so well and maybe IRL it appears otherwise. I like the undone cuffs popping out from the sleeves!
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;The booties!! If only I could wear them in this slush...(I don't wear them indoors). Otherwise, I seriously &#060;b&#062;would&#060;/b&#062;, &#060;b&#062;Elizabeth!&#060;/b&#062;&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Not too much movement. I mean, I'm not wearing it to a funeral but am fine with it for today. I am sure it's because it's blue. And only blue/ grey.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Thanks for the boost! It's a silly combo but a really comfy shirt so good for layering. There &#060;b&#062;are&#060;/b&#062; a few bumps, I admit...but not too bad. leaving it untucked helps!&#038;nbsp;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;If I'd just looked at the finds, I wouldn't have thought I'd like it, but it looks great on you. I think it's because of the similar colors/tones and the proportions visible is different. A useful lesson as I go play in my closet later this month.&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I have this same sweater. No checked blouse, but a blue and white stripe I own might provide a similar graphic effect. I can never get shirts to lie nicely under sweaters without being all lumpy, though.

&#060;p&#062;I agree Suz, &#034;why not&#034;.&#038;nbsp; But to be perfectly honest, it's too much movement for my taste.&#038;nbsp; I'm curious how you feel in this... or how you will feel at the end of the day, because I suspect it's a lot of movement for you, as well.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Apologies as usual for the photo quality. Argh, winter light!&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Casual at-home day for me. I usually wear this sweater on its own or under a jacket because unlike many sweaters, all by itself it makes a statement. But today I threw on a favourite shirt and thought&#038;nbsp;&#038;nbsp;-- why not wear them together? After all, what's wrong with checks, snake print, and florals combined?  <span aria-hidden="true" class="emoticon emoticon-smile icon-emoticon-smile "></span>  &#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
