Love your haircut too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-858421 Sun, 24 Feb 2013 16:55:03 +0000 Molly L-R 858421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tartan is my leopard. Though leopard itself is pretty cool too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857913 Sat, 23 Feb 2013 20:06:44 +0000 Adelfa 857913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Claire, thanks! I felt the glasses were a risk. Also I had sworn never to get black again. I don't think they're popular at my workplace, but I'm really enjoying them! I have always love cateye suggested shapes, so these are fun for me.</p> <p>Mellllls, thanks!</p> <p>Jan, I have a daughter/stylist too--a couple of them--I say try them together just once when she's not looking!</p> <p>Jewell, I'm trying to learn to identify my wardrobe needs and fill them patiently like you! I tend to buy on impulse. What saves me is that I have a good idea of my style so most of my purchases work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857758 Sat, 23 Feb 2013 17:01:56 +0000 Anonymous 857758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooo, I love your new items. And have I told you I love your specs? (I have specs on the brain, sorry). The dotted blouse looks really good on you. I tend to like small dots over large ones. Your jacket is great, and I love your patterned hound! You need to take him with you everywhere as an accessory!</p> <p>I have a great weakness for stripes and animal prints. All others need not apply. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857746 Sat, 23 Feb 2013 16:47:39 +0000 Mellllls 857746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>you look amazing!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857743 Sat, 23 Feb 2013 16:45:21 +0000 Jan 857743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just bought a Old Navy cotton sweater that's gray with mint polka dots and a pair of dotted gap skinnies. My daughter/stylist has banned me from wearing together but stripes and dots she supports! Love your dots and white denim jacket, very fresh for spring! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857732 Sat, 23 Feb 2013 16:34:29 +0000 Jewell 857732@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stripes are my leopard print with florals (surprisingly) not far behind. I adore polka dots and actual leopard print- just haven't found the perfect items featuring those patterns yet. I've been on the hunt for a polka dot blouse (Love yours btw) and flats and a leopard print scarf and flats for the longest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857564 Sat, 23 Feb 2013 06:09:45 +0000 Adelfa 857564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>gp, what a gorgeous piece! And quite subtle for being so bold! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857560 Sat, 23 Feb 2013 06:04:25 +0000 goldenpig 857560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a peacock print tunic:<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-122-peacock-tunic--happiness-factor-10" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....-factor-10</a><br /> and a peacock print clutch, and my iPhone case has a peacock on it, so I guess I am rather peacock crazy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857558 Sat, 23 Feb 2013 06:00:10 +0000 Adelfa 857558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>GP, haven't seen too much peacock but it sounds wonderful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857555 Sat, 23 Feb 2013 05:58:43 +0000 goldenpig 857555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in polka dots! Love the shirt and white jacket together! I think polka dots are my favorite pattern right now too! I love patterns of all kinds--stripes, florals, leopard, etc but polka dots are my favorite. Peacock print is another fave, as well as snakeskin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857506 Sat, 23 Feb 2013 03:49:13 +0000 Adelfa 857506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya, I'm not tired of them either! I thought twice about getting this shirt when I have the other items, but every polka dotted item I have is in a different color pattern and each new combo seems fresh! I have (dot color first): lavender and black, white and navy, and whoops another white and navy but the pattern is random instead of geometric, black and parsnip (a dark cream), and black and white.</p> <p>JJ, you're the only leopard so far! Interesting!</p> <p>Tina, I'm fighting getting addicted to Equipment shirts.... have you looked at the Everlane silk shirts? I might try one.</p> <p>Beth Ann, the concepts of "light" and "woven" are quite new to me! There was a time in the not so distant past when I made a point of only wearing black tees! </p> <p>Angie and Rute, thanks!</p> <p>Caro, do you mean polka dotted or some other spot? I'm quite interested in a dalmatian pattern!</p> <p>Jules, I'm not ready to wear a white jacket either, even in CA! But probably soon, sometime in March, since it is CA. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857402 Sat, 23 Feb 2013 01:06:37 +0000 Tanya 857402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit!</p> <p>My leopard is stripes, but polka-dots are very close second. I intend to wear them for quite a while, nowhere near tired of them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857400 Sat, 23 Feb 2013 01:04:48 +0000 Jjsloane 857400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in this. I am Leopard first and polkadot close second (although if I actually added up stripes and plaids maybe it's a 4 way tie?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857315 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 23:26:35 +0000 Tina.b 857315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a seriously addiction to Equipment shirts and your is just fabulous! You look brilliant in white and the fit is just lovely. </p> <p>Hmm, I love patterns of all sorts. Particularly little animals... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857277 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 22:55:56 +0000 Beth Ann 857277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This look is made for you! I like the way the white lights up your face! I'm still enjoying patterns, particularly light woven tops meant for hot days when you can't layer! I am being picky about them however, since I love what I love and tire of so-so patterned items. </p> <p>You aren't the only dotty YLFer. Check out Goldengpig! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857251 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 22:37:56 +0000 Angie 857251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857149 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 21:27:52 +0000 Caro in Oz 857149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just bought a casual spotted shirt to see if they work for me.<br /> Snake is my new go to print for everything:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857144 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 21:15:07 +0000 Jules 857144@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love patterns! I also have the same ON jacket, purchased on sale in the fall, everything about it (denim jacket! white!) is totally ylf inspired. I'm not quite ready to wear winter white, so it is waiting for spring! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857125 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 20:50:10 +0000 rute 857125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous!! Love that white jacket too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857119 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 20:43:42 +0000 Adelfa 857119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, I love snake too. So wearable and comes in the colors you and I love!</p> <p>Thistle, I always thought patterns enhanced, and didn't realize they could also conceal or distract! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857118 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 20:40:09 +0000 Thistle 857118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love polka dots! I have just recently discovered patterns, and am finding them amazingly "forgiving" to a new mom! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857116 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 20:36:32 +0000 Anonymous 857116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd have to say that dots are my leopard too, especially for summer clothes. For winter clothing it's probably snake. When I came to YLF, I didn't own a single piece of printed clothing except scarves. Like you, I'm loving pattern and I enjoy the fun of pattern mixing. Dots work very well for that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dots-are-my-leopard#post-857114 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 20:22:40 +0000 Adelfa 857114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When Angie did the Team Stripes vs Team Polka Dots, I was stripes all the way. I did not own a single polka dotted item. Now I have two scarves, a dress, and a skirt all in polka dots. And now this equipment shirt! I love how the two-button placket looks casual while giving the shirt a sleeker look with no gapping. </p> <p>The Old Navy denim jacket was on my doorstep at lunch--I did not wear it today. I'm quite pleased with it!</p> <p>I know Angie is moving away from patterns, but I just discovered them after decades of solids!</p> <p>Are you moving towards patterns or away from them? Are you obsessed with any particular pattern? What is your leopard? (Leopard counts too!) </p>
