That is a fabulous look indeed. No wonder, you have impressed colleagues! The mis of colors are perfect. However, the very thing that impressed me was a tie!!!!&nbsp;Yves Saint Laurent is always a top-level thing!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/school-days-tartan-stripes#post-1164526 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 10:00:38 +0000 Lantana 1164526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joi, you dazzle!<br /> I would do a triple take if I saw you in this but honestly, I would gawk at you if you were sporting a hospital gown. You are a stunner.<br /> I have indeed worn a tie, long ago, but only the once because I was timid back then, not fearless like you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/school-days-tartan-stripes#post-1164515 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 09:01:57 +0000 CocoLion 1164515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You always get it right. &nbsp;And I love the male "symbolism" behind your menswear inspired look... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/school-days-tartan-stripes#post-1164492 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 08:17:02 +0000 Greyscale 1164492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is great!

That is the SEXIEST androgynous look I have EVER seen!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/school-days-tartan-stripes#post-1164486 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 07:46:54 +0000 In My Joi 1164486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>I wore this look to the office, and dare I say, I turned quite a few heads. I'm not sure that our conservative population knew how to interpret me wearing a tie..LOL! Oh well, they'll live :)</p> <p>I fell in love with this look. You know, the outfits that you cannot wait to repeat?&nbsp;Well this is certainly one for me!&nbsp;</p> <p>I have been exploring out if the box&nbsp;ways to wear my tartan blazer. While&nbsp;my digging through my closet (literally), out sprung this combo. I've had the tie for some time, but never realized that it matched this shirt exactly- a wardrobe senior. Normally I wear the shirt&nbsp;with purples (usually other silks), but I think I like it paired with red more so than purple!</p> <p>I added a vintage clutch to carry after work.</p> <p>Sunnies: Nordstrom<br />Blazer: Evan Picone, Vintage-Thrifted<br />Silk Shirt: Infinity, Saks Fifth Avenue (10+ years ago)<br />Tie: Yves Saint Laurent, Vintage-Thrifted<br />Skinnies: NYDJ<br />Mary Jane's: Nine West<br />Handbag: Dooney &amp; Bourke<br />Clutch: Vintage, thrfted</p> <p>I'd love to hear your thoughts! Would this look make you do a double take? Have you tried wearing ties?</p> <p>P.S. I'm in the market for bow ties next </p>
