Cutting them off is an excellent idea! Thank you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspired-by-angies-khakis-tee-blazer-ensemble#post-1251412 Wed, 14 May 2014 13:33:23 +0000 Parsley 1251412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a fun casual outfit, Joy! I love how this formula can have such a range of variations that all work. I was wondering if the khakis might work better if you cut them off a bit shorter so as not to have too thick a roll. That is, unless you also like to wear them full length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspired-by-angies-khakis-tee-blazer-ensemble#post-1251379 Wed, 14 May 2014 13:08:22 +0000 Anonymous 1251379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your helpful comments. I love knowing what others notice.<br /> Lisa, as you can probably tell, these khaki cargos are not tapered. The legs are straight before pegging them. You might look for something like that. You could taper them from the knee.<br /> Karie, I would never have tried wearing cargos if it were not for YLF<br /> Thank you, MamaV. I like the sound of modern and fresh!<br /> Kiwichik, I think that you are right about the shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspired-by-angies-khakis-tee-blazer-ensemble#post-1251263 Wed, 14 May 2014 07:11:45 +0000 Kiwichik 1251263@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The only thing I would change about this fab outfit is the shoes - I can totally see you rocking the bickies look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspired-by-angies-khakis-tee-blazer-ensemble#post-1250845 Tue, 13 May 2014 21:58:53 +0000 Mamavalveeta03 1250845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look GREAT!!

E I will try the trousers with a higher roll. It was chilly the day I wore this.<br /> Angie, I'm thrilled that this closet-shopped outfit gets your approval. I hope those beautiful pumps are still available when we get back from our trip. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspired-by-angies-khakis-tee-blazer-ensemble#post-1248036 Sat, 10 May 2014 20:27:43 +0000 Angie 1248036@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You nailed it, wonderful Joy. Fabulous. I LOVE those rolled cargos on you.&nbsp;</p> <p>And to answer your question on another thread, you can absolutely wear these ankle strap pumps with small ankles.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspired-by-angies-khakis-tee-blazer-ensemble#post-1247432 Sat, 10 May 2014 03:17:39 +0000 jackiec 1247432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the finished product with the blazer &amp; all!

I think this is a really fun version, but I agree that I'd roll the trousers a bit higher (another roll or two) to show off your ankles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspired-by-angies-khakis-tee-blazer-ensemble#post-1247371 Sat, 10 May 2014 01:47:38 +0000 Anonymous 1247371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dustt and Marmee, I messed them up to go out for BBQ (casual).&nbsp; I'll try to get a photo.&nbsp; I'm not a RATE dresser, so it felt a bit strange at first.</p> <p>MsMaven and Julie John, thank you for the vote of confidence.&nbsp; I am beginning to feel a little old to be wearing cargos but I like them.</p> <p>Kellygirl, you saw why I chose the chunky Eccos.&nbsp; They are super comfy.&nbsp; I could walk in them all day.</p> <p>Aida, you always have the best suggestions and I really appreciate that you took time to post.&nbsp; I will work on&nbsp;rolling and think a back pinch would help a lot.</p> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspired-by-angies-khakis-tee-blazer-ensemble#post-1247324 Sat, 10 May 2014 00:16:29 +0000 Aida 1247324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy you could also try pegging it with the pinch at the back or at the sides instead of in front like here. Out of site out of mind I might be inclined to go a bit higher, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspired-by-angies-khakis-tee-blazer-ensemble#post-1247290 Fri, 09 May 2014 23:40:58 +0000 JulieJohn 1247290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, it's funny you aren't sure about the rolled pants, as I was going to say that's my favorite part of this. It gives a fun structural element, kind of crispy, that I really like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspired-by-angies-khakis-tee-blazer-ensemble#post-1247265 Fri, 09 May 2014 23:25:48 +0000 kellygirl 1247265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great interpretation, Joy! I love the cargos in this. I think those chunky Eccos give a similar vibe to Birkies and they look super comfy. Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspired-by-angies-khakis-tee-blazer-ensemble#post-1247237 Fri, 09 May 2014 22:43:42 +0000 MsMaven 1247237@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You've given the look your own individualistic twist--and I like it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspired-by-angies-khakis-tee-blazer-ensemble#post-1247236 Fri, 09 May 2014 22:39:53 +0000 Marmee 1247236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that tee and the sandals!

You would have approved of my first attempt at rolling these </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspired-by-angies-khakis-tee-blazer-ensemble#post-1247150 Fri, 09 May 2014 21:03:18 +0000 dustt 1247150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>joy love those cargo khakis on you - I would do the roll slimmer and messier if that makes sense...and the T is a winner!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/inspired-by-angies-khakis-tee-blazer-ensemble#post-1247142 Fri, 09 May 2014 20:58:09 +0000 Anonymous 1247142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today I shopped my closet, inspired by Angie's latest ensemble post. The khaki cargo pants have straight legs so I tried to taper and roll a little. I don't think that part is working very well visually, but they have stayed rolled.<br /> I don't have sandals out yet and don't have Birkies or that style. I used an old pair of clunky Eccos for the look. They need replacing with something but I'm not sure what I want yet. The bag is an old leather hobo that I thought I'd purged.<br /> Khakis: Target a couple of tears ago<br /> Tee: Fendor<br /> Blazer: Nygaard tuxedo jacket<br /> Belt: Target<br /> Sandals: Ecco<br /> Your suggestions and comments are appreciated. Shall I get rid of the khakis? Would a more draped tee be better? How can I master this ensemble? </p>
