I love all of it, but those boots &lt;3</p> <p>If you're having to make yourself wear the blouse, then its probably for the best to holding zone it and see whether or not you miss it. </p> <p>And even though both watches are rose gold, they are different and could serve as complements to different styles of outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry/page/2#post-1920820 Sun, 20 May 2018 06:04:01 +0000 Greyscale 1920820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The boots look like keepers!</p> <p>I have the same problem with buttoned shirts (I suspect many of us do) but I've gotten sort of blasé about having an extra button undone. Then sometimes I realize at work that I'm revealing a little too much. There's one shirt I really should get rid of - I keep forgetting how much it gapes until I'm already at work, but it's cut in a way that doesn't really work with an extra button undone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry/page/2#post-1920804 Sun, 20 May 2018 04:02:21 +0000 Jaime 1920804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am always attracted to blouses like that - it has a retro vibe that I really like. Holding zone seems like the right place for it now, see if you miss it. Boots and earrings are perfect. I like the older watch I think. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry/page/2#post-1920800 Sun, 20 May 2018 03:55:14 +0000 Dianna 1920800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am with Bijou, the shirt is&nbsp;so&nbsp;fab&nbsp;to keep, even if it has to be worn with a cami (but I say so because I wear a cami most days AND I really love stripes).&nbsp; Both watches are different enough to keep both, and the boots are fantastic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry/page/2#post-1920733 Sat, 19 May 2018 21:49:09 +0000 Jenni NZ 1920733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I do like the boots on you. The Fryes were my least faves when you posted your 4 options but that was my own preferences for "refined" speaking and they look great with your jeans!<br /> Great that they're also comfy and practical and have hubs' seal of approval.<br /> The shirt looks great, I'm with you about fussiness and having too many barely worn items also though when one has a large wardrobe. Holding zone sounds good.<br /> Love the earrings and the first watch, not the grey one so much. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry/page/2#post-1920677 Sat, 19 May 2018 14:23:02 +0000 Janet 1920677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, all!</p> <p>Jamie helped seal the deal on the boots — he came home and saw them and immediately proclaimed them totally cool. Comfort was there, and they’re the right vibe I was looking for, so I wore them out for a movie and dinner. Perfect for a rainy day too. I predict a workhorse! </p> <p>I like how this shirt looks on, and it’s not bad fuss-factor wise if I wear a tank under it like I did yesterday, but I have too many things that I keep and wear maybe once a year. I’m reserving judgment for the moment but this will probably go into the holding zone. </p> <p>Still debating the stone/grey and rose gold watch. I was actually tempted to wear it with that outfit yesterday. It’s a nice change of pace from my black and silver watch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry/page/2#post-1920670 Sat, 19 May 2018 14:05:38 +0000 citygirldc 1920670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's what I like about you: you always wear a piece with an edginess to it, and I'm talking about those boots. Love them.</p> <p>I've given up on watches these days and rely on my apple watch, although doesn't Apple have a rose color watch? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry/page/2#post-1920666 Sat, 19 May 2018 13:45:48 +0000 Angie 1920666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I echo Suz. </p> <p>Blouse looks great, but if it’s a mission to wear - it’s not worth it. Love the boots and the rose gold watch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry#post-1920591 Sat, 19 May 2018 05:08:17 +0000 Suz 1920591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those boots are gorgeous! I hope the comfort factor is there. Love both watches, too, and the earrings.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm in the camp of...if something bugs you when you wear it, give it away. Because life's too short. This happens to all of us. Sometimes you just can't tell in the store. It looks great, but how it feels is even more important.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry#post-1920588 Sat, 19 May 2018 04:54:38 +0000 bridgie 1920588@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet, back to say, that is too funny, moving two blocks from Pimlico on Preakness Day.&nbsp; Lucky you didn't have people taking over your front yard for parking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry#post-1920587 Sat, 19 May 2018 04:44:36 +0000 Bijou 1920587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this shirt very much and think it is worth the fussiness factor. I love rose gold and think both watches are different from each other.

You have such a good eye for selecting jewelry and accessories. I vote keep the boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry#post-1920567 Sat, 19 May 2018 02:15:00 +0000 SarahD8 1920567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The earrings are great, I super love the boots, and both watches are fab (personally I am drooling over the Skagen one, it looks so...planetary). To my eye the shirt looks like not quite your core style. It maybe lacks edginess or is a little corporate? I do think it looks nice but if you have to force yourself to wear it and it feels fussy.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry#post-1920565 Sat, 19 May 2018 01:57:12 +0000 krissy751 1920565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry#post-1920564 Sat, 19 May 2018 01:56:05 +0000 Vanessa 1920564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you do have an issue with the shirt, I would say pass on it.

Twenty-five years ago this weekend, I moved into a house two blocks away from Pimlico...on Preakness weekend! Somehow my roommate and I neglected to realize that our lease start date of May 15 put our move-in date on Preakness day, so we had to deal with revelers stumbling across our yard as we moved in. Too funny. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry#post-1920557 Sat, 19 May 2018 01:05:18 +0000 bridgie 1920557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet, sorry about all that rain.&nbsp; Looks like Pimlico will be a muddy track tomorrow like Churchill Downs was a couple weeks ago.&nbsp; Leading up to I love your outfit and think it would be excellent to wear to the races tomorrow. The black eyed susans would complement your outfit!</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry#post-1920556 Sat, 19 May 2018 01:00:24 +0000 jussie 1920556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That shirt looks great on you.

It is certainly not your average buttoned shirt. It is unique in pattern and palette. Disclaimer- I like buttoned shirts- and yes I wear them with and without camis- so I would say keep.<br /> Those boots are fantastic- again- the details bring them from ordinary to extraordinary.<br /> The watches and earrings follow your pattern of choosing great pieces with” ka-pow “ factor. Apparently you make your own sunshine on a rainy day.<br /> Well done </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry#post-1920537 Fri, 18 May 2018 23:32:06 +0000 Janet 1920537@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chris, I do have at least three jackets that go with this shirt, but the truth is that I find collared, button-front shirts fight with the collars and lapels of jackets. This one is no exception — even worn with my rain jacket today the collar goes all wonky and the front gapes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-a-closet-orphan-boots-under-consideration-and-new-jewelry#post-1920536 Fri, 18 May 2018 23:13:59 +0000 Chris987 1920536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the shirt a lot...does it go with any of your jackets and would you wear it that way?
