You're definitely into the blues, and they really suit you. My favorite is #2, actually, with #4 close behind! Your hair looks great both pulled back and set free - it's nice that it can be a versatile part of your style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-628252 Fri, 25 May 2012 02:34:31 +0000 christy 628252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! It's encouraging to know that I'm on the right track, even if I am branching out a bit from the norm for me!</p> <p>Deborah, my fellow neutral lovin' gal, 2 and 3 are probably my favorites also. I just can't help it!</p> <p>Ha Claire! There's a funny story behind the necklace and top I wore for the Hawaii pictures. That top was bought specifically to match that necklace - and the necklace isn't even mine! A girlfriend let me borrow it for the trip and I decided I MUST wear the necklace for the pictures, but didn't have anything to go with it. Which led to a shopping trip and voila! Terrible, isn't it?!</p> <p>Sona, great fit (or as close I can get to it) has become something of a new mantra for me. Thanks for noticing!</p> <p>Again, thanks everyone for the kind words! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627998 Thu, 24 May 2012 21:49:03 +0000 Kiwichik 627998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another stellar week - love the accessories with each outfit especially cute in #4 red ear rings with the red shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627615 Thu, 24 May 2012 14:29:58 +0000 Jonesy 627615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are really branching out! Color and pattern--wow!! I especially love 3 and 6, but they are all fab. Your hair is looking gorgeous all loose and wavy too, in 6. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627535 Thu, 24 May 2012 12:58:14 +0000 sarah 627535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm dubbing you "Queen of the Loft Finds". You look great in color, Christy (but you also are divine in your beloved neutrals). Terrific week! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627530 Thu, 24 May 2012 12:34:46 +0000 Sona 627530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is really 'cool' to see you in 'warm' weather transition clothes!<br /> every outfit is stunning.<br /> I especially like how each garment/outfit 'fits' your body so well. Really great fit takes an outfit from ordinary to fab and you demondtrate that to the rest of us beautifully! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627405 Thu, 24 May 2012 03:16:15 +0000 kellygirl 627405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fab set of outfits. You are SO stylish! My fave is the print dress (with those edgy booties) closely followed by the sweet skirt ensemble. All of these are winners though. I'm looking forward to seeing more casual too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627396 Thu, 24 May 2012 03:02:01 +0000 Amy 627396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Christy, I love these outfits! That blue jacket is fabulous. My favorite is the skirt outfit in #4. Fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627366 Thu, 24 May 2012 02:33:43 +0000 Suz 627366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look wonderful, as always, and it's fun to see you in a casual look as well as in your usual work wear. I adore #3, and #4 is just so much fun!! You look fabulous in the blue jacket, so I'm glad you brought it out a second time. </p> <p>It's funny how some outfits just work better in the imagination, isn't it? I wish it were easier to predict. I must say, I adore the earrings with the jacket in #1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627355 Thu, 24 May 2012 02:20:16 +0000 bj1111 627355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>am loving that blue jacket. honestly, your series, to me, just illustrates a neutrals girl accessorizing with color to keep things fresh. blue is also practically a neutral anyway !</p> <p>i don't understand the flats thing. maybe the moon phase? you and aida are on the west(ish?) coast so maybe the stars are different there! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627351 Thu, 24 May 2012 02:18:24 +0000 Anonymous 627351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>See, this is what I'm talking about: you have great accessories that support your outfits! Earrings to bookend your shoes? That's crazy-cool! I love you in cute flats! The striped outfit with pearls, shorts and beachy hair is sending me into orbitt! You look like you just stepped off your sailboat (or yacht)! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627337 Thu, 24 May 2012 02:08:49 +0000 Deborah 627337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous use of color. My favourites here tho are 2 and 3, so sleek and put together. #6 gets special mention, it's a lovely silhouette on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627332 Thu, 24 May 2012 02:01:18 +0000 christy 627332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Helen!<br /> Aida, I know, right? What IS up with the flats and low heels? I love this necklace - I wear it all the time!<br /> Aw, Shannon - that's sweet. Thank you! The black booties with the dress are a big departure for me.<br /> Shevia, before Angie and YLF, I never would have given this jacket a second look! And I love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627315 Thu, 24 May 2012 01:46:53 +0000 Jaime 627315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing in that blue jacket - yeah for color! I also love your colorful shorts outfit and the dress with booties is gorgeous. Not one is less than fab though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627313 Thu, 24 May 2012 01:44:53 +0000 christy 627313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1. This looked better in my head - wasn't crazy about how it turned out. Gibson blue jacket, Classiques ivory top, BR tan slacks, Jeffrey Campbell oxfords, B Makowsky handbag, Old Navy blue necklace and earrings<br /> 2. Old Navy black knit button up, Classiques light brown slacks, Jeffrey Campbell oxfords, black belt B Makowsky bag, Stella &amp; Dot long pearl rope necklace<br /> 3. Chaus black and white dress, Steve Madden peep-toe booties, Michael Kors black bag, Loft silver tassel necklace<br /> 4. I posted this one already...white fox croft button down, Loft skirt, Franco Sarto flats, Target belt, Target coral earrings, Michael Kors bag<br /> 5. Pulled out the blue Gibson jacket again and liked it better paired with this black and white striped tee, white Gap pants ($5 on sale at the end of last summer!), Nine West reptile print pumps and Steve Madden reptile print bag.<br /> 6. A casual look - I'm trying to get better about taking pictures of casual looks too! Loft green and navy striped tee, J Jill navy shorts, Franco Sarto nude heels, white shell necklace, Tignanello yellow small cross body bag.</p> <p>Thanks for looking! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627312 Thu, 24 May 2012 01:44:44 +0000 Transcona Shannon 627312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good grief Christy! Do you EVER take a bad pic??? Every single one of these outfits works perfectly. I couldn't find anything to pick on if I tried (lol)! I adore your dress outfit in #3 in particular. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627308 Thu, 24 May 2012 01:42:02 +0000 Aida 627308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking good Christy! *looks around* I'm kind of into lower and flat heels right now too, what's up with that!?? *clears throat* These are all fab, but I'm really really loving #2 and #6 and hello pretty tassel necklace twin in #3 You have a fab purse collection! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627305 Thu, 24 May 2012 01:41:01 +0000 HelenInCanada 627305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic week, Christyg! I especially love #4 - wow! Not one suggestion to offer - everything looks perfect! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-week-of-color-kind-of#post-627302 Thu, 24 May 2012 01:37:37 +0000 christy 627302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Still getting caught up on my weekly WIWs - I'm trying to post most of my outfits rather than just a few here or there. This is from a couple of weeks ago and imagine my surprise when I discovered that I (firmly on Team Neutral) wore color in 4 out of the 6 outfits that I photographed. Not only that, but in 3 of the 6 I'm in flat to low heels. What is happening with me?! :)</p> <p>Outfit details to follow. Comments and suggestions for improvement are always welcome! </p>
