You're very clever to sew a blouse like that, those interesting lines and details are beyond my skills! Sounds like it's rather freeing just to have B&amp;W, I imagine more of your wardrobe can work together easily. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-week-b-w-to-work#post-1576238 Sun, 25 Oct 2015 10:10:23 +0000 Deborah 1576238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, both are stunning. &nbsp;I love the wooden bird pin. It's quirkyness is a lovely contrast to the modern dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-week-b-w-to-work#post-1575916 Sat, 24 Oct 2015 12:32:40 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1575916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #2 best. &nbsp;I find the detail of the blouse is a juxtaposition to the simplicity of the B&amp;W color option. &nbsp;Two great outfits. &nbsp;I am envious of those who can wear that shape of dress well. &nbsp;I think it will look really good with the white boots you described too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-week-b-w-to-work#post-1575871 Sat, 24 Oct 2015 09:26:24 +0000 Cococat 1575871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going to try the white boots and see how they go. I probably need to get a bit more courageous with my footwear/accessories when I wear a very simple dress.</p> <p>Thank you for giving me that little push. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-week-b-w-to-work#post-1575860 Sat, 24 Oct 2015 07:37:06 +0000 Anonymous 1575860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both outfits. I kind of feel like I'd love to see some funkier shoes with #1 though. I adore the cool 60's vibe I get from the dress but the sandals seem a bit 'light' for it, if you see what I mean. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-week-b-w-to-work#post-1575832 Sat, 24 Oct 2015 05:01:17 +0000 rachylou 1575832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 blows me away </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-week-b-w-to-work#post-1575731 Sat, 24 Oct 2015 00:10:13 +0000 celia 1575731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first one is my favorite, love the lines of the dress and how you added the brooch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-week-b-w-to-work#post-1575691 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 23:03:59 +0000 Cococat 1575691@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your comments ladies.</p> <p>You have me thinking Aida and Shevia......maybe I should try some white boots with the dress. I have a pair of simple high shaft peep toe booties that might look more interesting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-week-b-w-to-work#post-1575619 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 21:03:30 +0000 Brooklyn 1575619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My fave is the second outfit. Love the lines of the blouse. And great accessories. You totally nailed it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-week-b-w-to-work#post-1575611 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 20:57:19 +0000 Aida 1575611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Two nice looks. The first feels a smidge simpler than what I was thinking of your style direction, although with the exposed skin it certainly still has the graphic vibe of black and white even without any white in the garments; the dress is just a little more conventionally mod. I think that outfit needs an additional arty element, something funkier than the pin (which is more quirky). The second outfit jives really well with what I was picturing of where you're headed. VERY cool blouse, architecturally interesting without being overly complex. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-week-b-w-to-work#post-1575386 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 14:22:15 +0000 Anonymous 1575386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want the dress in #1! I love how you accessorized it with the broach. So fun! #2 is great too.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-week-b-w-to-work#post-1575374 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 14:04:02 +0000 Jaime 1575374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the dress with the pin. This would look great with short boots also, although I guess you are entering summer. Very interesting white blouse too - looks timeless. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-week-b-w-to-work#post-1575334 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 12:39:17 +0000 Cococat 1575334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I only took a couple of pics this week, but I have been enjoying the ease of choosing B &amp; W only.</p> <p>#1. New dress bought online by European label Kortas, inspired by a Victoria Beckham dress. It's a simple swing dress, 60s style. Worn with wooden bird pin and simple T-strap heels from CR.</p> <p>#2. Wrap blouse I made from a Vogue designer pattern about 15 years ago. I had time to sew back then. Worn with Metalicus skirt and studded sandals. I chose a third item, as Lisa suggested, to finish the look. I chose a heavy Mimco choker with silver and turquoise..</p> <p>Thoughts?</p> <p>Thank you. </p>
