I can't tell you how impressed I am that you wore WHITE jeans with that top. So much more modern and unexpected than blue. You clever thing.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569459 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 13:55:19 +0000 Jenn 1569459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first outfit is great... and how adorable that your son sees you as an angel. &nbsp;:) &nbsp;I feel like the second outfit, while nice, is a little staid for you. It doesn't quite have that spark of personality I'm used to seeing in the looks you love best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569451 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 13:31:19 +0000 Anonymous 1569451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These looks are great--as are your knitting skills. I love the bright freshness of the white and navy in your 'angel outfit'! It's such a wonderful feeling to save something and then pull it out again when it's right on trend--and find its just as fun and flattering as remembered. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569442 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 12:54:04 +0000 Joyce B 1569442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are great outfits on you!<br /> I see that you are a very good knitter. Your fab socks reminded me to get my own handknit socks ready for cold weather wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569362 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 06:00:14 +0000 Sal 1569362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These both look great and I can tell you like them too! A great colour combination for you.</p> <p>In the past I have had cream jeans and white trousers but I don't have any now. You are showing me how to wear them in a way that might work!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569357 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 05:48:00 +0000 Brooklyn 1569357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit - I love embroidery.

I'm no fan of cowboy boots, (I'm mean , I 'm Canadian - only Albertans wear cowboy boots &nbsp;) but you really wear them well - and absolutely wear striped fun socks with them - shows you have a sense of humour &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569292 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 01:33:08 +0000 Anonymous 1569292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the color combination and love how you put everything together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569256 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 00:26:17 +0000 Angie 1569256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Of course.

Killer. The white jeans add a gorgeous modern crispness to the look. The boots ground the outfit. WELL DONE.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569205 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 22:39:19 +0000 lisaflex 1569205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love outfit #1! adorable. cute and fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569178 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 21:37:51 +0000 Word Lily 1569178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>LavenderMoon</b> and <b>ABC</b>: Thanks!</p> <p><b>Smittie</b>: Thank you! I’m not sure where the punch comes from, but I think I’ll wear it a lot. :)</p> <p><b>Celia</b>: Thanks! And yes, at least in theory, every color goes with cream/white. :)</p> <p><b>Suz</b>: Thank you! These are both pretty happy pairings for me, despite being boring color-wise. I have a dog too, but the more hair-like, “non-shedding” kind. I’m not worried about it that way. But you’re right, those grease/dirty snow stains aren’t very easy (DH commutes via bicycle when he can) to remove. And yes, these would easily pair with almost everything, at least in theory. We’ll see how often I reach for them. </p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569171 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 21:23:37 +0000 Suz 1569171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also -- these jeans will go with that green sweater you showed us the other day. And the turquoise.

I absolutely love the combination of navy with cream or white, and this looks wonderful on you.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love the new/ old tunic, too. What a fun piece, definitely on the "arty" side. :)&nbsp;</p> <p>I find my cream and white jeans surprisingly wearable. I couldn't believe it when I first got them. I don't have a dog, mind you. But I do wear them outside. &nbsp;I sit on park benches and rocks and even the ground...and I also walk a LOT in slushy and snowy weather. I confess I try not to wear them on the worst winter days, because they can get spotted on the back and those spots can be tough to remove. But any other stains seem to come out quite readily in the wash. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569145 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 20:40:54 +0000 celia 1569145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, love both outfits. I think you will be able to wear these cream jeans with almost all of your tops. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569057 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 17:28:03 +0000 Anonymous 1569057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your outfit in #4.

Yes, I’m very happy I kept this tunic. I’m so happy to be able to wear it again!</p> <p><b>Alassë</b>: Thank you!</p> <p><b>Amiable</b>: Thanks! I’m probably not the best person to comment on the practicality (or lack thereof) of cream or white jeans since this is my first day wearing them in … well over a decade. I don’t think they’re terribly impractical, though, but my life is probably less messy than yours (I live inside, mostly, for instance.) I don’t think stains are any harder to remove from light fabric than from dark fabric, and denim is pretty sturdy. ETA: Also: probably way more practical than split bell sleeves like this tunic has. ;)</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569024 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 16:08:37 +0000 amiable 1569024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the jeans! &nbsp;(and the whole outfit).</p> <p>I was just noting a similar need over here. &nbsp;I have a lot of blue and purple (and plum) for winter, and nothing that looks right to wear with them. &nbsp;Are cream/white jeans really completely impractical? &nbsp;(I still have my pair from last year, and they're fine for at-home wear, but a little stained near the hem. &nbsp;I may at least try them on....) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569023 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 15:59:11 +0000 Alassë 1569023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can see why you like the tunic, and your new sweater looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569018 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 15:28:35 +0000 Maneera 1569018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the tunic. It's so pretty with these jeans!!! I agree - the effect would NOT be the same if you were wearing a column of dark blue. </p> <p>I think the new jeans will be a great addition to your wardrobe, since many of your tops are darker colours and blues. And they look great with your boots. Great find! </p> <p>You look very happy, comfortable and pretty. I'm glad you kept this tunic! And I'm sure, so are you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/navy-and-cream-two-ways#post-1569011 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 15:03:18 +0000 Word Lily 1569011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This first one, which I'm wearing today, my son called an angel outfit. An angel shirt, and angel boots.&nbsp;</p> <p>This hi-low embroidered tunic top is one that had been in the holding zone for a very long time. I'd loved it so much that I saved it through years of it not fitting. And now it fits again, yay! And look: I said I didn't like fringe, no way no how, and here I am happily wearing fringe. The jeans are cream colored wide legged, new to me, acquired pretty much exclusively because I have several dark blue tops and sweaters and wearing a column of dark blue makes me melancholy (so wearing them with dark-wash jeans is out). I really wanted oatmeal or cream socks, but alas! Wardrobe hole (note to self). So blue stripes had to suffice.</p> <p>The second one I took the photos of a few weeks ago (but I didn't actually wear it; it hasn't been cool enough for this sweater yet). Newest handknit sweater, a simple v-neck with three-quarter length sleeves.</p> <p>I might not wear these cream colored jeans with anything but dark blue, but I'm guessing even if not, I'll get a decent amount of wear out of them. </p>
