It reads as clean, simple, utilitarian in a fashiony way, but also modern because of the interesting shoe/bag combined with the stripes. You could tweak lots of ways, but I like it this way as long as you feel like it's a good representation of the style you want to have. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---does-this-modern-classic-knob-go-to-11#post-923147 Thu, 02 May 2013 03:11:12 +0000 Anonymous 923147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Congratulations on finding just the right Breton. That's a big deal! I'm sure you'll find a million ways to wear it. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---does-this-modern-classic-knob-go-to-11#post-923131 Thu, 02 May 2013 02:57:36 +0000 Angie 923131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ A clutch is going to look great with this! And so will white jeans :)<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---does-this-modern-classic-knob-go-to-11#post-923097 Thu, 02 May 2013 02:23:21 +0000 Charmian 923097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Suz, I wish you hadn't said that, because now I want to try this outfit again with a clutch&nbsp;but I have to waaaiiitt almost 2 weeks&nbsp;before I can rewear this outfit (travel plans). &nbsp;My life is <i>such</i> a&nbsp;challenge, I know https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---does-this-modern-classic-knob-go-to-11#post-923091 Thu, 02 May 2013 02:19:08 +0000 Suz 923091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Charmian, that's actually what they were doing on the runways, with all kinds of bags!! Not only in the clutch shape. Just holding them as clutches. So if you do that, you'll be ahead of the trend and not Modern Classic any more!! (grin)<br /><br />Well, I cannot complain about Breton stripes since I wear them almost every day. I say it's great, whatever you call it.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---does-this-modern-classic-knob-go-to-11#post-923088 Thu, 02 May 2013 02:16:43 +0000 Charmian 923088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <b>@Firecracker, @tarzy,&nbsp;</b><b>@rachylou</b>&nbsp;-- thanks for the suggestions! &nbsp;I bet a burgundy belt would play off the purse nicely, too. &nbsp;And while we're going shopping for accessories, maybe it's time for a new bag? &nbsp;;) &nbsp;Firecracker,&nbsp;I'm especially tickled that my sad-and-saggy skinnies read as "trendily slouchy", you're a peach for saying that!<br /><br /><b>@Sarah A</b> -- I really wanted to wear my purse across my body, but it's too short to pull off well. &nbsp;Maybe I can detach the strap and try to pass it off as a daytime clutch :)<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---does-this-modern-classic-knob-go-to-11#post-922721 Wed, 01 May 2013 19:37:16 +0000 Isis 922721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ 11 for sure!&nbsp; I like the classic bag.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---does-this-modern-classic-knob-go-to-11#post-922713 Wed, 01 May 2013 19:32:44 +0000 Thistle 922713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love the shirt on you!&nbsp; <br />It looks great as is, but to add a bit to it, what about a pop of color with a belt or bag? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---does-this-modern-classic-knob-go-to-11#post-922701 Wed, 01 May 2013 19:19:14 +0000 Sarah A 922701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great shirt! I like the idea of a partial tuck or i am also patrial to wearing a crossbody bag to break up a little longer top. And I love the diagonal line from the strap across the stripes on the top when I do that.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---does-this-modern-classic-knob-go-to-11#post-922677 Wed, 01 May 2013 19:01:20 +0000 kellygirl 922677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The pants look like slightly slouchy perfection. Like Firecracker, I would like to see it belted with a semi-tuck to add a modern touch. Otherwise, very cute. Glad you found the Breton. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---does-this-modern-classic-knob-go-to-11#post-922631 Wed, 01 May 2013 18:26:52 +0000 rachylou 922631@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ What do you think of a Hobo bag? A little contract to the modern classic?<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---does-this-modern-classic-knob-go-to-11#post-922595 Wed, 01 May 2013 17:49:02 +0000 tarzy 922595@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Fabulous! The only suggestion I have would be - how about a touch of red, which is often the classic complement to black &amp; white? Shoes, a clutch or a scarf could do the trick!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---does-this-modern-classic-knob-go-to-11#post-922585 Wed, 01 May 2013 17:34:32 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 922585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Had to laugh at your title! I like the look on you. To me, the pants are on trend. They don't look skinny; they look a little roomy in the leg, so they fit the boyfriend/slouch kind of trend going on now. You might want to get a new pair of skinnies, though! :)<br />For a current little touch, you might add a belt and try a semi- or faux-tuck with this top. I love the slipper flats and the bag with the outfit.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---does-this-modern-classic-knob-go-to-11#post-922560 Wed, 01 May 2013 16:53:26 +0000 Charmian 922560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ As you can see, just as&nbsp;I'm tiptoeing away from my cons-and-a-tee uniform at work, the perfect-for-me breton fell into my lap after almost a year of looking! &nbsp;La dee da, nothing to do but put it straight into rotation.<br /><br />To me, today's outfit screams "omg modern classic to teh max!!!!1!1!11~one~~oen1"; I think it's the breton combined with the little red purse.<br /><br />If you see any areas of improvement,&nbsp;please PLEASE point them out!<br /><br />ETA: Now that I look at these black skinnies a bit more, I'm wondering if it's time to replace them, they're looking a bit stretched and "light black". And the haircut! I know it's not looking its best because it's air drying, but sheesh I need a new cut!<br />
