You may favor an open sandal for summer and a more closed shoe for fall. Leather sneakers would work or loafers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend/page/2#post-2362612 Wed, 12 Jun 2024 18:42:09 +0000 Bonnie 2362612@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MsMary: Thank you! I'm glad you like the outfit.</p> <p>Carol: Thank you. I think it looks a bit brighter in the photos than it actually is but it is a bold choice for me. I am a retired teacher so maybe that's way I was drawn to it.&nbsp;</p> <p>JAileen: Your pumpkin and olive outfit sounds wonderful. I do have an olive tee I could try. Thanks for the suggestion.</p> <p>Firecracker: Thank you. I did try pinning up the tee but DH said he liked the longer version. He wanted to give me an anniversary gift so I suggested this outfit.I guess I'll wear it the way he likes it best at least at first.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362601 Wed, 12 Jun 2024 16:27:23 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2362601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all versions, Bonnie. What a great set of pieces to mix or match. I like 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7 the best, so I guess I'm liking the open shoes, too.&nbsp; I had the same thought as Joyce--I like the top best tucked as in 5, and I think if you shortened it to high-hip length it would be a great look with these wide-leg pants, with or without the topper. I do love the long top over the pants, buttoned or unbuttoned. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362598 Wed, 12 Jun 2024 16:04:08 +0000 JAileen 2362598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in this color, and in every version shown. &nbsp;If you needed even more variety, olive looks great with this color. &nbsp;I used to have a lovely silk blend pumpkin sweater set that I wore with an olive skirt. &nbsp;I always felt fab in that outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362593 Wed, 12 Jun 2024 15:28:16 +0000 Carol 2362593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a bold color choice, like a saturated pumpkin. I love all these looks, but especially the set together. If you are a teacher or a speaker, this is a great look. Also for events.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362502 Tue, 11 Jun 2024 16:54:34 +0000 MsMary 2362502@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OUTSTANDING!!

I have not tried them but I definitely will do so.&nbsp;</p> <p>All: Thank you so much for your support and great ideas. I knew that you could help me style this outfit and you have generously given me a lot to think about and try. YLF is awesome! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362485 Tue, 11 Jun 2024 13:53:04 +0000 Angie 2362485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Brooklyn's</b> wrap top idea is intriguing!&nbsp;</p> <p>Have you tried tying the ends of the shirt like a tie top too?&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362467 Tue, 11 Jun 2024 10:18:43 +0000 Brooklyn 2362467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow Bonnie. Looks fabulous on you! I agree with Angie - it works best with sandals.</p> <p>Because the top is long you could try wrapping the ends around your waist to create a wrap top - if you are into that. Could look good with the high waisted bottoms in #3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362459 Tue, 11 Jun 2024 04:47:31 +0000 Bonnie 2362459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mary Beth: Thank you so much. I appreciate you chiming in.</p> <p>Joyce: Thanks. I tried it that way but the top looked wrinkly. I should try shortening it to wear it untucked.</p> <p>Mirjana: Thank you so much. I'm really leaning towards trying the fisherman sandals.</p> <p>RobinF: Thanks. It is an interesting color. An orangy brown that is unusual but seems to work for me.</p> <p>CrystalJ:Thank you for your kind words, you made my day.</p> <p>Angie: Thank you. I was worried about the length of the pants. I'm glad they work. For awhile I considered trying to turn them into balloon pants.</p> <p>Olive Green: Thanks so much. I'm so glad you like the combo. When goes out of style it will make a great at home outfit. </p> <p>Suz: Yes, the platform will help the proportions!!</p> <p>Jaime: Thank you. I appreciate your input.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362458 Tue, 11 Jun 2024 04:44:26 +0000 Bonnie 2362458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All: Thank you so much for your comments.

Agree that it is best with open sandals. The fisherman sandals above look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362446 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 23:39:11 +0000 Suz 2362446@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the fisherman's sandals with it and the proportions might feel better with that platform, too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362445 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 23:00:48 +0000 Olive Green 2362445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the colours and the outfit, right up my alley, where I might mug you for this <br />All iterations look fab. I like this sort of thing with sandals, perfect if you like Birks or fisherman type sandals.&nbsp;<br />Surprisingly good with the wide white pants, also.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362440 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 21:32:39 +0000 Angie 2362440@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>bonnie,</b> I forgot to mention that the length of the pants look great!</p> <p>As for the fishermans, they might just work :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362438 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 20:52:02 +0000 ChristelJ 2362438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really terrific set! My faves are 1, 2, and 7. I think the necklace looks great too and especially with the Cole H. sandals. You look radiant. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362437 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 20:49:19 +0000 RobinF 2362437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, what a great color! Fun pieces. I also love the sandals with it and would try pinning up the top to see what it does with the proportion. I agree with Joyce that I like the under piece tucked in the best but really these all look good.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362435 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 20:18:53 +0000 Mirjana 2362435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful colo Bonnie, very on trend and gorgeous on you. I agree with other , sandals are the best and also love with fisherman sandals. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362430 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 19:12:47 +0000 Joyce 2362430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bonnie, great outfit, a keeper.<br />I especially like the under top tucked. To my eye it reduces the volume a little and gives you great shape.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362427 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 19:03:38 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 2362427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bonnie, this color is so gorgeous for you! &nbsp;The outfits are all wins, but my especially favorites for summer are #1 and #2 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362425 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 19:02:03 +0000 Bonnie 2362425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Roberta: Thank you. I like the cream jeans with it, too.&nbsp;</p> <p>cat2: Thanks. I'll have to try those colors.</p> <p>Suntiger: Thanks. I agree with adding black elsewhere. My necklace is black but maybe it doesn't show up very well in the photo. I also have a black sling bag and black cotton coat I can wear with it.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks, Suz, and what a great idea. The proportions are off and I thought it was the pants but I think you are right and it's the top that's off. I looked at the construction and the pocket are set very low so hemming it might not work. I'll check it out, though, maybe there is a way to shorten it a bit.</p> <p>Dee: Thank you. I'm glad you like the pants length. The set is 100% cotton and is a nice weight. It has dobby weave stripes which give it more interest than a smooth fabric.</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362423 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 18:52:24 +0000 Dee 2362423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this co-ord on you, wonderful colour, looks very versatile and has a great summery vibe, length of the pants looks great with your sandals. Is it linen set? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362422 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 18:46:53 +0000 Bonnie 2362422@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>kkards: Thanks. It is a very orange brown and I do like it.</p> <p>Angie: Thank you. I like the sandals best, too. What do you think about the Fly London fisherman sandal with the outfit? They might be better for walking than the sandals I now have. What color would be best? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362419 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 18:38:20 +0000 Bonnie 2362419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Star. It is a great shade of brown. I did try it as a top and forgot to add the photo. I'll add it here and at the top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362411 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 16:57:16 +0000 Suz 2362411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What <b>Angie</b> said! I <b>LOVE</b> it on you. Just gorgeous. Prefer it with open footwear, for sure. Need to show a bit of skin for structure.&nbsp;</p> <p>Also -- others might disagree -- but I wonder if you might consider heming the top portion so that it&nbsp; ends about where it ends on the model? I realize it is meant to be oversized and smock-like and I like that look. I just wonder if the proportions would work a little better, especially with contrasting bottoms. Maybe you could pin it up an inch or two and see?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362408 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 16:51:11 +0000 Suntiger 2362408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great color! I don't love it with black shoes though, unless you add black elsewhere in the outfit. But I'm matchy matchy </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362407 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 16:42:45 +0000 cat2 2362407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great color. I like rust with aqua or turquoise in summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362406 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 16:38:45 +0000 Roberta 2362406@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks so so good! I agree with Angie, sandals are better than the boots. I love the set AND the top with the cream jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362405 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 16:30:37 +0000 Angie 2362405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER CUTE co-ord!&nbsp;</p> <p>SOOOO on trend,<b> bonnie</b> :)&nbsp;</p> <p>Colours suits you, and are a fun change!&nbsp;</p> <p>This look likes open shoes - VERY summery - so those versions work best to my eye.</p> <p>#1, 2 and 5 are my faves! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-the-co-ord-trend#post-2362403 Mon, 10 Jun 2024 16:21:16 +0000 kkards 2362403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous! &nbsp; Especially love #1 and # 2.&nbsp;<br />the color is gorgeous-like a rich pumpkin.&nbsp; </p>
