The sweater looks great over the chambray shirt, and I'm absolutely loving the cuffed white jeans with booties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella/page/2#post-1194239 Fri, 14 Mar 2014 03:58:32 +0000 Jaime 1194239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this especially with the white jeans! Great challenge Karie and Bella! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella/page/2#post-1194137 Fri, 14 Mar 2014 01:58:51 +0000 Gigi 1194137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look so great! My absolute favorite is the last one, where the button-down peeks out under the bottom of the sweater. That looks so good! I am trying to do that kind of look myself, but all my sweaters and button-downs are too long. Argh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella/page/2#post-1194114 Fri, 14 Mar 2014 01:35:11 +0000 adorkable 1194114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 'em all! Another suggestion about the deep scoopneck: what about a large scarf that fills it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella/page/2#post-1194055 Fri, 14 Mar 2014 00:35:20 +0000 Kristin L 1194055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great job Bella!

All three look good to me though, as is. Good job! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1193784 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 19:18:21 +0000 Ornella 1193784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Terrific outfits bella.

Sorry I missed out on this. This was a great idea for a challenge, and Bella, you did a fab job of it -- I also love the white jeans and think the idea to do that combo with the sneaks is perfect.YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1193709 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 17:55:37 +0000 Suz 1193709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic outfits Bella.

My fav is the first outfit with the white jeans. Although I am tired of seeing white outside my window, I love white in an outfit. I also love the chambray shirt and the sneakers in #5 and #6. Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1193516 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 16:06:38 +0000 pastrygirl 1193516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love look #1!!

I'd also be curious to see what it looked like with the top button undone; just for comparison. &nbsp;What a fun challenge!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1193418 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 14:42:52 +0000 JAileen 1193418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all of the looks, but the sneakers are cute and I would put them with the white jeans too.

That's my favourite of the looks, Bella. Well done.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1193372 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 14:11:56 +0000 Neel 1193372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the outfits you posted Bella ..<br /> But I love April's suggestion! I think it would look brilliant. Do you wear statement necklaces? I am not very aware of your style, sorry. If you do, a statement necklace over the fully buttoned chambray shirt would look lovely.</p> <p>But I love them as is really, just a few more suggestions so that they come out to play more often. That blue will work well over white shirt too :). Can't wait to see what you come up with for the lovely Emily. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1193371 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 14:11:50 +0000 Beth Ann 1193371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad this sweater got to come out and play! &nbsp;My order of preference? &nbsp;1, 3, 2. &nbsp;Like April, I love the idea of the grey sneaks with the white jeans. &nbsp;</p> <p>I love the layered necklines, and I wouldn't have thought of it, so I'm glad for your post -- I'll be checking my sweater for a new combination! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1193350 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 14:00:05 +0000 shedev 1193350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all 3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1193323 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 13:47:02 +0000 Lisa 1193323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How great to see your outfits again Bella, pretty blue sweater.&nbsp; I really like the sneaks and jeans look and second April's white jeans and sneaks suggestion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1193302 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 13:21:54 +0000 carter 1193302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bella, what a great color on you! So pleased you found some ways to wear it. Love them all but partial to #1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1193223 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 11:21:39 +0000 April 1193223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How great to see Bella outfits! &nbsp;(And Karie -- love your challenge.)</p> <p>Actually, my preference would be to combine #1 and #6 because I'm liking the casual sneaks, but would like to see them with the white jeans. &nbsp;</p> <p>I think I know what you mean about the neckline --&nbsp;deeper scoopnecks in winter are a problem. &nbsp;Too cold not to wear an underlayer, but an underlayer that actually fills in the space can look wrong, and an underlayer that just peeks out doesn't provide enough coverage for warmth. &nbsp;</p> <p>Did trying the sweater in these combinations make you feel like you'll wear it more? &nbsp;If so, huzzahs all around!</p> <p>And now for the second half of your link in the Challenge Chain. &nbsp;Random.org has presented&nbsp;<b>#1, which is Emily! &nbsp;</b>(You have to love the spirit of the person who was first to raise her hand for the Challenge Chain project.) &nbsp;Since there are currently lots and lots of forum members named Emily, let me clarify that the Emily you want is pictured below.</p> <p>Whenever you're ready, go ahead and start a new thread, and I'll PM Emily now to let her know it's coming. &nbsp;</p> <p>Karie, your mission is complete. &nbsp;Please&nbsp;enjoy a well-earned face-lick from Cosmo Edward. &nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1193186 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 10:21:17 +0000 bella 1193186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Karie for the excellent challenge.&nbsp;<br />The movie poster and the mission to find a new love, brought immediately to my mind this Benetton&nbsp;sweater that I purchased in February. I loved the color and I hoped that it would be a work horse. Unfortunately, I couldn't quite make it work, the neckline is a bit difficult. So with the determination to love this sweater, I set out to work. First, I found an acceptable layering piece. The chambray shirt worked like a charm.&nbsp;<br />Then I wanted to try my white jeans. They don't really work for me in the winter, I commute by public transport and anything white is impossible. However, now that the spring is around the corner, I am thinking of exploring the possibility of wearing these jeans more often.&nbsp;<br />Here, I decided to bend the rules a bit and instead of creating another outfit, I set out to try the top part of this outfit with some other possible bottoms.&nbsp;<br />In real life, my order of preference went like this: #3, #2, #1. In fact, I am wearing the third outfit right now to a doctor's appointment.<br />However, seeing the pictures, I think my order of preference is completely reversed: #1, #2, and then #3.&nbsp;<br />What do you think? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1193166 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 09:37:17 +0000 Karie 1193166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>bumping for Bella </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1192996 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 02:35:56 +0000 Sveta 1192996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brilliant, Karie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1192992 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 02:32:00 +0000 Jaime 1192992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic challenge Karie - can't wait to see what Bella comes up with! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/karie-challenges-bella#post-1192989 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 02:29:48 +0000 amiable 1192989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh - So fun! &nbsp;Can't wait to see what she comes up with! </p>
