I will put it in holding zone, and who knows, maybe this color became popular again and will easier to find coordinating pieces. It was sunny day here today and I think I finally managed to capture the real color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2155312 Sat, 21 Nov 2020 14:19:38 +0000 Dreika 2155312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The bag looks really comfortable and it’s an unique color. I’m wearing cross body bags for years due to back and feet problems and if I had it would’ve kept it.

I have to think some more before deciding.<br /> Bag unfortunately doesn’t have that yellow or lime cast irl which would be so much easier to work in my wardrobe. It is more of a brighter olive? Closest thing I have seen on internet in that color are this Boden pants that are of course sold out in my size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2154912 Fri, 20 Nov 2020 00:38:57 +0000 Inge 2154912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>And Zalando Germany (I can't collect on the German website, and can't find all of them on the Belgium site, so just adding the links below):</div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/codello-scarf-mehrfarbig-co951g1j9-t11.html">https://en.zalando.de/codello-.....9-t11.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/fraas-scarf-lime-f5351g0fw-m11.html">https://en.zalando.de/fraas-sc.....w-m11.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/street-one-basic-loop-scarf-gruen-s8551g0a9-m11.html">https://en.zalando.de/street-o.....9-m11.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/fraas-foulard-lime-f5351g0ho-e11.html">https://en.zalando.de/fraas-fo.....o-e11.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/marc-opolo-scarf-woven-blend-scarf-multi-ma351g0b3-t11.html">https://en.zalando.de/marc-opo.....3-t11.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/fraas-scarf-lime-f5351g0g0-m11.html">https://en.zalando.de/fraas-sc.....0-m11.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/fraas-foulard-khaki-f5351g0ft-n11.html">https://en.zalando.de/fraas-fo.....t-n11.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/zero-snood-black-zee51g00h-t11.html">https://en.zalando.de/zero-sno.....h-t11.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/street-one-scarf-gruen-s8551g0ah-m11.html">https://en.zalando.de/street-o.....h-m11.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/fraas-scarf-khaki-f5351g0h5-n11.html">https://en.zalando.de/fraas-sc.....5-n11.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/marc-opolo-scarf-multi-ma351g0bl-e11.html">https://en.zalando.de/marc-opo.....l-e11.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/zero-snood-light-moss-zee51g00g-m11.html">https://en.zalando.de/zero-sno.....g-m11.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/marc-opolo-scarf-tonal-scarf-fresh-pea-ma351g0ba-m12.html">https://en.zalando.de/marc-opo.....a-m12.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/fraas-scarf-olivgruen-f5351g0fh-n11.html">https://en.zalando.de/fraas-sc.....h-n11.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/fraas-scarf-lime-f5351g0gg-m11.html">https://en.zalando.de/fraas-sc.....g-m11.html</a></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.zalando.de/marc-opolo-scarf-super-soft-scarf-ma351g0ak-t11.html">https://en.zalando.de/marc-opo.....k-t11.html</a><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2154910 Fri, 20 Nov 2020 00:34:12 +0000 Inge 2154910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div><div>Sorry you had such a stressful day, Anchie :-(</div><div>It's such a fun bag, and I too really like the items from your closet you've paired it with (it looks amazing with the fur e.g.), but of course <i>you</i>&nbsp;have to like it too :-)</div><div><br /></div><div>Here are a few more options that might work:</div></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.comma-store.eu/p/scarf-with-a-palm-tree-motif-88.004.91.3529.html">https://www.comma-store.eu/p/s......3529.html</a></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2154907 Fri, 20 Nov 2020 00:28:43 +0000 Anonymous 2154907@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I WANT THAT FUR COAT!

I’m not sure how it’s safer against the virus, but that’s what they’ve decided. No clue if that was a US or EU decision. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2154885 Thu, 19 Nov 2020 22:15:37 +0000 slim cat 2154885@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’d gladly take it off your hands - my efforts to build a yellow capsule failed but I’m still wanting something like that . Of course it’s too much trouble for you to send it to US... It’s not easy color but it’s quite fun - take some more time to think about it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2154878 Thu, 19 Nov 2020 21:31:45 +0000 SarahD8 2154878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the bag looks great with the items you found in your closet but I appreciate it may not work in real life. We will have to trust you!</p> <p>I wondered if it might work well with metallic gold shoes? Would be easier to find than that exact shade of green. But might not be matchy enough for you... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2154858 Thu, 19 Nov 2020 19:57:38 +0000 anchie 2154858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie - unfortunately they go better together in photo than irl. I am not sure I like it. So difficult to get accurate colors. And also, it is very casual bag, so not sure that I would wear them together because of that too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2154857 Thu, 19 Nov 2020 19:53:17 +0000 anchie 2154857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am leaning towards letting it go, it seems too much effort making it work. I did try to find the scarf with this color in it, but could not find anything remotely similar that I liked. It is strange green color - not even sure how to call it. And it doesn’t photograph well. If anyone is interested, i will gladly send it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2154856 Thu, 19 Nov 2020 19:50:09 +0000 Angie 2154856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There you go!

Busy day here, after stressful wfh day, I had online parent teacher conferences, made dinner and went out for a walk in the rain. Finally have some free time to play in my closet.<br /> Light is terrible and I can’t get accurate colors in a photo. I tried combining the bag with citron scarf, my green plaid fur coat, and my chartreuse hobs trenchcoat, thanks for ideas. I am not sure that it goes well together especially irl. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2154821 Thu, 19 Nov 2020 17:35:14 +0000 Angie 2154821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What <b>Slimcat </b>and <b>Janet </b>said<b></b>.</p> <p>Things can be TONAL, instead of an exacter match. For example, I match<i> citron and chartreuse</i> because they are tonally the same - like this: </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2154820 Thu, 19 Nov 2020 17:32:08 +0000 Star (Lise) 2154820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Back again :)&nbsp; On my screen this colour looks like pistachio to me.&nbsp; Pantone had a colour in 2019 like this so, so maybe if you search using pistachio green you will have some luck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2154816 Thu, 19 Nov 2020 17:24:04 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2154816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How does it work with "neon" green &amp; yellow? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2154814 Thu, 19 Nov 2020 17:11:45 +0000 nemosmom 2154814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote to add a scarf!&nbsp; Does this go with your fun, plaid, faux fur coat?

I’d look for something like a scarf with that color in a print. It may be easier to work into outfits with other solid color pieces, and easier to find. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2154777 Thu, 19 Nov 2020 15:04:46 +0000 slim cat 2154777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a scarf in colorful print - mix of many colors. Main color is almost white ( very light blue ) with some navy blue, purple, and almost rainbow mix of a bit of red, orange, yellow and citrus green. It's my go-to accessory to ground some colorful things: green gloves or red bag.</p> <p>Maybe something multi colored with some of citrus yellow color will help you to feel more in control of the outfit when wearing that pretty bag. For summer time I'd just add bracelet ( in similar color ) and call it a day . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-complements#post-2154774 Thu, 19 Nov 2020 14:39:09 +0000 anchie 2154774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had this bag for at least 10 years. I used to have matching green loafers but they are long gone. Now the bag is sitting unworn in my closet. Since I am now wearing crossbody bags exclusively and don’t have that many I want to put this bag back into rotation. Color wise it is complete orphan. I know I can wear it just as a pop of color but my matching gene is rebelling. I tried unsuccessfully to build complement arround it, but it seems very difficult color to find. Have you seen anything in this color? Or should I just give up and pass on this bag and concentrate on colors that are already in my wardrobe and easier to find? I am wondering even if I build complement, will it go with the rest of my wardrobe, except maybe with navy? </p>
