So happy you liked the bright Angie inspired outfit! I felt FAB in that!</p> <p>@MaryK - I'm sure that magic closet of yours has something wonderfully similar! Post ASAP! : )</p> <p>@Beth Ann - Do you struggle with assembling a dressy casual look or fitting dressy casual in your environment?</p> <p>@cciele - I'm sure you are gonna rock the fedora, especially with your BF jeans! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-677154 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 20:50:29 +0000 cciele 677154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Outfit number is so pretty and makes your waist look tiny! And I love how you wear a fedora -- I am taking notes over here (just picked one up). And you look fantastic in bright colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-677150 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 20:41:51 +0000 Beth Ann 677150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad to see you post again! I love your fashion sense, and the fact that you are a "dressy" girl in a casual lifestyle. I struggle with that, myself, and it's so helpful to see such wonderful options. You look great in every shot, but I'm crushing on the final outfit. The fit of this skirt, as well as it's length are perfect. Love the fresh coloblocking and the semi-tuck too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-677061 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 18:19:18 +0000 annagybe 677061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorite is #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-677057 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 18:09:57 +0000 rachylou 677057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*love.* You put things together so cute </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-677054 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 17:59:17 +0000 MsMary 677054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all awesome!

I love the all-denim/chambray look, and the inspired one is gorgeous--beautiful colors on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676953 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 15:56:00 +0000 AJ 676953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Angie - Thanks so much for stopping by! I felt the semi tuck helped balance my apple bits from the side view. Fully tucked might make my waist look a bit slimmer, but my curveless backside bookending an apple-y front doesn't look good. This way the straight line from the untucked back of the blouse adds some balance to the bulk up front. (I tend to over think things.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676946 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 15:40:10 +0000 Angie 676946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are cuter than cute, AJ! And I am humbled to have inspired you. I'd love to know why you semi tucked the citron blouse. I think it might look even better fully tucked! </p> <p>You know how to look stylish in TX heat like no other. All your outfits are 10s! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676938 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 15:35:19 +0000 JR 676938@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And AJ knocks it out of the ballpark again. Love the outfits, love the fedoras. You are more daring in your colour combinations than I am, but that's probably a good thing, LOL! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676936 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 15:34:54 +0000 AJ 676936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>bump for Angie </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676874 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 14:53:06 +0000 AJ 676874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Deborah, Lyn, and Jj! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676731 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 09:53:02 +0000 Jjsloane 676731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You do wear hats beautifully. I love 1 and 2. And of course 7 is fantastic - so ladylike and the colors are bright and fun and summery. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676713 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 08:15:41 +0000 lyn67 676713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All beautiful outfits here AJ! Simple but bold and making a statement when seen! I also have several denim skirts, love their practicallity-and esp love to dress them up a bit-like you do! YLF as always!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676692 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 07:14:57 +0000 Deborah 676692@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You wear a fedora like no one I know. These are great outfits. I really like how put together you always look and how you keep it simple. Your inspiration outfit is a stunner. Great colors on you and the semi tuck is perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676658 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 05:35:48 +0000 AJ 676658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Marley - Thanks! Yes, the back of the blouse is as long as it gets. I think what's throwing you off proportion wise is that I have straight hips and apple bits. Pencil skirts don't really suit my shape but the YLF-pencil-skirt-siren-call is strong, LOL! If I were to leave the shirt untucked, it would look too long and sloppy. Adding a belt to the untucked shirt would just highlight my apple tummy due to the blouse not having any structure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676652 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 05:21:55 +0000 Marley 676652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AJ! LOve all of these outfits - and you are still looking mighty fine in a hat! That skirt in #1 is sooooo pretty - and I love the way you have tied the cardigan in outfit #3. Also, the color combination on the last outfit is outstanding! I just have one question about the top - I know you are doing a semi-tuck, so is it safe to assume that the back is as long as it gets?- or do you still have a little bit of it tucked in? There is something about the proportions of that outfit that is throwing me off. Have you tried just surrendering your waist and letting that blouse just hang loose and flowy? How does it look that way? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676646 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 05:14:04 +0000 AJ 676646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Kari - Thanks. I took a look at your pinterest file and you have some great inspiration pics there!</p> <p>@cc - Yes, I too thought the pumps had a KS vibe. Ha-ha, that denim skirt still works. I always feel more comfortable wearing a tank under a button down shirt just in case there is a gap when I sit or bend.</p> <p>@Lyn D &amp; Scarlet - Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676632 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 04:57:47 +0000 Scarlet 676632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These all look great, AJ. I think two is my favorite because that hat just gives everything that extra kick I really like you in the bright colors too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676619 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 04:31:28 +0000 Anonymous 676619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, those Target pumps are very Kate Spade-esque. They are lovely and sophisticated, if only for dinner shoes. Love your color combo on that outfit as well. For your denim skirt fetish, I'm no one to talk. Plus you needed to replace the one whose zipper died at the meet-up last year, right? Or did I break it? ;( I lurve outfit #1. That stretchy belt adds a lot to the outfit and I'm sure it's comfy too. Fun seeing you in a button front shirt. For the record, I see no gaping, so maybe you just need a certain cut? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676604 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 03:49:06 +0000 Lyn D. 676604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! Every outfit is gorgeous in its own way.<br /> I especially like the bright colours and the blue skirt outfit in pic#. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676587 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 03:25:51 +0000 Kari 676587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AJ, your "inspired by" outfit just about knocked me out of my chair. The colors and the shape are marvelous! I'm adding this to my Pinterest inspiration board as we speak.</p> <p>I absolutely love seeing hats on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-july-wiws-including-an-angie-inspired-outfit#post-676584 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 03:22:48 +0000 AJ 676584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Man, this summer is going by too fast! Here are some WIW's for this month.</p> <p>1) Wore to church. I think I was inspired on the web somewhere to pair these colors together. New navy stretchy belt that I bought from Old Navy at the beginning of July.</p> <p>2) I liked how this turned out. Made me think of going to a jazz club in New Orleans. (For the record, I've never been to a jazz club nor New Orleans. LOL!) New rose gold hoops that I bought at Nordstrom Rack this month.</p> <p>3) Bought both the fuschia sandals and red satchel from Zara last year. The charcoal grey camisole with beige lace trim and the a-line Mossimo (Target) denim skirt were both thrifted last month. Red dangle earrings and white thin drape cardigan finish the outfit.</p> <p>4) OK, I have 4 denim skirts...make that 5, but I liked the diagonal seams on this thrifted skirt.</p> <p>5) Wore today. Red with white stripes tee, navy with white dots shorts (recently thrifted), bronze and pearl earrings, Dansko sandals, and navy crochet bag.</p> <p>6) Color inspiration from <a href="http://www.thesartorialist.com/photos/on-the-street-east-4th-st-new-york/" rel="nofollow">http://www.thesartorialist.com.....-new-york/</a> and ensemble inspiration from our lovely Angie.</p> <p>7) I've had this citron top from Target in and out of my donate pile many times. Now that I'm trying the half-tuck, maybe it will come out to play more often. : )<br /> These cute patent pumps were recently thrifted. There's a nude colored band at front with gold tone buckle. If you look closely, the heel has a thin band of gold at the bottom. I was surprised to learn that these are Target shoes! Wore this to church and was sad to experience that these shoes are only 2 hour shoes. : ( For now, I'll keep them for dinner dates. I'm also wearing saphire blue floral dangle earrings to bookend my skirt.</p> <p>Thanks for stopping by and as always, your comments/suggestions are always appreciated! </p>
