I can deal with summer but not heatwave. Fingers crossed that heatwave does not show up and decides to take up residence. </p> <p>K - I think I was still on the forum when you shortened your name. I missed you too while I was off the forum. I could live off your complements for days :-D</p> <p>Ornella - shall we put together a potato sack challenge? LOL! I'm glad you have that much faith in my skills. I'm sure your potato sack would include a stylish coordinating hat.</p> <p>Rachy - I have not forgotten about your aversion to too much store. I felt the full weight of too many choices too when I sprained my ankle and couldn't walk for months. Big box stores were too much to handle with out lots of help. </p> <p>Christieanne -- I really don't have that many pairs of shorts although where I live there is definitely a summer that's warm enough to warrant them. I generally prefer short skirts or dresses and have plenty of them. For the longest time I had problems with shorts that bunched and rode up. Finding the right cut was the turning point for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ombre-stripes-and-neon#post-1000763 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 18:20:35 +0000 Kat 1000763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am consistently impressed by your eye for harmonizing color-you truly have a gift for it!&nbsp; You look lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ombre-stripes-and-neon#post-1000753 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 18:11:16 +0000 pastrygirl 1000753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love those colors together. so fresh and fun.

Seeing your post and Angie's blog today made me realize I have no shorts. OUr summers aren't really warm enough to make them a necessity. THe two or three truly warm days I wore a loose a line skirt and was happy. <br />Now I wish I had tried on some shorts earlier in the year! </p> <p>Sometimes colors don't need to match but just "go" and the similar brightness of tone in these is indeed harmonic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ombre-stripes-and-neon#post-1000698 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 16:46:08 +0000 rachylou 1000698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Harmonies, what an excellent word (!). The colours really do come together. I <i>love</i> the tank top ombre.</p> <p>I have gotten some absolutely favourite things at ON: Some low vamp topsiders (sadly wearing out) and a citron sweatshirt. But I do always feel like I could have found more. My neighbor just makes out at Old Navy and looks fantastic. I suppose I get overwhelmed in the stores; they're big. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ombre-stripes-and-neon#post-1000653 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 15:43:05 +0000 Ornella 1000653@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, I'm sure these pieces are so happy you have discovered YLF and let them play together. Too fun. I think you could style a potato sack to look vibrant and feminine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ombre-stripes-and-neon#post-1000651 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 15:37:54 +0000 K. Period. 1000651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back, DV! I've missed you! (I've been oof (off of forum!) a lot lately too because of too much work.)&nbsp;You look just as gorgeous and totally put together as always.</p> <p>I love that you said you wouldn't have thought to put the colors together before YLF. I always think of you as having the most amazing understanding of color mixing. I think&nbsp;maybe&nbsp;the forum &nbsp;just took something you were already brilliant at and gave you a nudge to perfect it even more. These colors look fresh, fabulous and exuberantly fun. Beautiful.&nbsp;</p> <p>(And by the way, you just have miles of legs don't you! So gorgeous. And these shorts are perfect to highlight them. No wonder you call them your perfect length.) &nbsp;</p> <p>ETA: Were you oof when I shortened my name from KCanShop to K?&nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ombre-stripes-and-neon#post-1000631 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 15:09:21 +0000 shedev 1000631@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the ombre shirt, this outfit looks fresh and summery. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ombre-stripes-and-neon#post-1000590 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 14:19:45 +0000 Sara L. 1000590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the yellow shorts - so bright and cheery.&nbsp; You look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ombre-stripes-and-neon#post-1000589 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 14:19:27 +0000 In My Joi 1000589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the neon shorts!!

So fresh and bright. I like the way the colours complement but do not match. Clever.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ombre-stripes-and-neon#post-1000344 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 02:19:40 +0000 Day Vies 1000344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am pretty sure that before YLF I would never have put this outfit together. Nothing "matches".&nbsp; All of the colors are complementary which is the basis of the harmony but these pieces were purchased separately. I fell in love with the neon yellow shorts when I saw them at J Crew. They are my perfect 5" length. My shoes are Puma ballet flats and the top and sweater is predictably enough from Old Navy. I guess the secret is out as far as where I get my basics. </p>
