Simple and summery with great colours. That burgundy bag provides an awesome style punch to your lovely blush top and denim skirt. And I absolutely LOVE your necklace. YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-last-august-ensemble-challenge-wrap-up#post-1551327 Fri, 04 Sep 2015 06:31:29 +0000 Ankita 1551327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-last-august-ensemble-challenge-wrap-up#post-1551223 Fri, 04 Sep 2015 02:09:30 +0000 carter 1551223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pale pink is such a fab color on you! The burgundy bag looks great with it too...really pops the outfit. You're looking particularly fab (over and above the outfit). New hair? Make-up? Weight change? Something different? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-last-august-ensemble-challenge-wrap-up#post-1551212 Fri, 04 Sep 2015 01:49:57 +0000 Thistle 1551212@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the pink and burgundy together! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-last-august-ensemble-challenge-wrap-up#post-1551182 Fri, 04 Sep 2015 01:00:44 +0000 Jaime 1551182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pink looks great on you and the bag looks fab with it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-last-august-ensemble-challenge-wrap-up#post-1551170 Fri, 04 Sep 2015 00:52:12 +0000 Suz 1551170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely in the blush and I love the burgundy bag with it! Terrific outfit.&nbsp;</p> <p>Like you, I'll be saving my closet switch out until after the Equinox. Our weather is still hot and likely to remain quite warm for the next few weeks.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-last-august-ensemble-challenge-wrap-up#post-1551133 Thu, 03 Sep 2015 23:52:49 +0000 Angie 1551133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit, Laura.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-last-august-ensemble-challenge-wrap-up#post-1551129 Thu, 03 Sep 2015 23:50:56 +0000 kellygirl 1551129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is terrific! Blush and burgundy is lovely on you! IKWYM about the hardware and the necklace. I know mixing metals is fine but it always bothers me in my own outfits. (I never notice on anyone else though.) Love the idea of this challenge. I've added the ensembles into my phone (on Pinterest) so I have a handy dandy reference if I'm struggling in the closet. We definitely have a few more weeks of warm weather--although the mornings here have cooled off a lot!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-last-august-ensemble-challenge-wrap-up#post-1551120 Thu, 03 Sep 2015 23:22:58 +0000 Alassë 1551120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's nice to see a WIW; you're looking great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-last-august-ensemble-challenge-wrap-up#post-1551117 Thu, 03 Sep 2015 23:15:15 +0000 Word Lily 1551117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is completely successful, if you ask me! You look awesome. And the mixed metals don't bother me, either. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-last-august-ensemble-challenge-wrap-up#post-1551107 Thu, 03 Sep 2015 22:53:40 +0000 Jenn 1551107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Using the bag for your contrast is perfect! I think you look great, and I have absolutely zero problem with mixed metals. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-last-august-ensemble-challenge-wrap-up#post-1551106 Thu, 03 Sep 2015 22:52:14 +0000 Sal 1551106@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great Laura - have you had your hair cut...anyway I like it!</p> <p>The colours work well on you, and I love your necklace here. &nbsp;The necklace and bag dress the outfit up very well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-last-august-ensemble-challenge-wrap-up#post-1551104 Thu, 03 Sep 2015 22:43:15 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1551104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't have any burgundy clothing, so I used a purse to provide the contrast to this outfit. I liked the colors together more than I expected, although I was secretly pained that the hardware on the bag didn't match my necklace. Happiness level: B</p> <p>I missed tracking my outfits a few days because of health flare-ups but if I extrapolate out I get somewhere around 60-something unique items worn in August. Most of the repeats were shoes or bottoms; some tops only got worn once or twice all summer - which suggests that I have plenty of summer clothes and don't need anymore. Or at least plenty of summer tops! I think that a month like August would be a good one for a 30x30, since the weather is so consistent. Pretty much hot, all the time, and sandals. </p> <p>I'm not doing any special challenges for fall, but I do want to keep trying to put together outfits based on Angie's past ensembles. Even when they aren't that successful, they get me thinking of unique combinations. We're expected to have warm weather for several more weeks so I probably won't do my fall wardrobe switchover/culling until around the equinox. </p>
