I'm pinning it. I adore you in those trousers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625688 Tue, 22 May 2012 02:46:49 +0000 Sveta 625688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Vicky, Jonesy - thanks!<br /> Suz, I don't overthink which color goes with which - I just try them out and see what I like. I am afraid I don't have a very scientific approach about it :-)<br /> Lyn, I bought this scarf because I like the color combination but it was hard to style: it was very wide and not long enough. I asked my mom to make it narrower and stitch the ends together so I got an infinity scarf from it. Now it is a snap to style :-)<br /> Celia, yellow and grey is one of my very favorite color combinations! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625654 Tue, 22 May 2012 02:08:19 +0000 celia 625654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the way you added yellow to your grey outfits, especially the first one.<br /> Your outfit to cirque du soleilis truly amazing , you look fabulous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625638 Tue, 22 May 2012 01:51:58 +0000 Jonesy 625638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, you look lovely and chic, as always! My fave is #3 but you are looking good each day! Love the clean, sharp color palette. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625623 Tue, 22 May 2012 01:30:01 +0000 Lyn D. 625623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with everyone! I am learning lots from your outfits Sveta.<br /> Question if you have a chance- How have you tied the yellow scarf ? Is it a reasonably short one or looped around? Thanks again for the inspiration! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625565 Mon, 21 May 2012 23:51:25 +0000 Suz 625565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nodding along with Shannon. What I admire most about your style, Sveta, is the way you fearlessly attempt colour combinations that would never occur to me, and make them work brilliantly! By doing so, you expand the reach of your closet immeasurably. I'm always so impressed and inspired by this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625539 Mon, 21 May 2012 23:19:59 +0000 Vicki 625539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello, Beautiful! You look stunning in every photo and I add my voice with the others in saying how much I love the way you put your outfits together. I adore the great pop of color with your yellow scarf and the gorgeous handbag that matches the color of your pretty lipstick! The layered sheath in #2 is perfect for the weather you describe and reminds me to try this, as I haven't yet. I'm in jaw-dropping awe of #3 and you look fantastic in that dress with the little white jacket and raspberry gladiators, all which add up to why I love looking at your WIWs. Even if it ended with work, this was a stellar week for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625530 Mon, 21 May 2012 23:03:13 +0000 Sveta 625530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, Inge, Ginny - thanks!<br /> Rae, that is an interesting observation! I have not thought about it but now I see it.<br /> Makrame, we saw Dralion. It was good but we liked previous performances better. If you have not been to this cirque before it is really worth seeing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625528 Mon, 21 May 2012 22:56:05 +0000 Makrame 625528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous outfits! The dress in #3 is amazing on you, and I like how your scarf and bag in #1 brighten up the neutrals-based outfit.</p> <p>Which show did you see? We have Cirque du Soleil coming to town and I am wondering if it is worth seeing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625480 Mon, 21 May 2012 21:23:54 +0000 rae 625480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see a theme here in soft neutrals punctuated by fresh brights - love! Very springy and a nice alternative to head-to-toe color. I know what you mean about the difference in temps throughout the day, and I don't even walk to work. I will shiver in my trench walking from the parking structure and then sweat walking out to get lunch! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625462 Mon, 21 May 2012 21:13:03 +0000 Ginny 625462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in trousers!! Love the dress in #3, </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625446 Mon, 21 May 2012 21:00:57 +0000 Inge 625446@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, you simply look stunning every time you post!<br /> The temperature difference sure is challenging, I agree, layering is the way to go.</p> <p>You look gorgeous in those dressy trousers and you look gorgeous in that dress. I love it all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625434 Mon, 21 May 2012 20:55:13 +0000 Transcona Shannon 625434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW! I can't stop staring at you in the dress and jacket combo in #3! OUTSTANDING Sveta!</p> <p>I never would have thought of pairing that bright yellow-orange scarf with the soft striped top and bright red handbag in outfit #1 but it works brilliantly all together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625426 Mon, 21 May 2012 20:51:54 +0000 Sveta 625426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Vildy, Victoria, Kirti - thanks!<br /> Christieanne - yep, layers are to the rescue! It also helps that my office has A/C so I need layers there as well. Still 20 degrees difference in 8h is pretty crazy.<br /> Meredith, this dress was consigned, not thrifted. Its price was $50 but it was new with tags from a local boutique (price on the tag was $380) and silk. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625361 Mon, 21 May 2012 19:43:02 +0000 Kirti 625361@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all great but I love #3! I often go to college when temps are low and leave when it is warm. I just rely on layers, usually a jacket and a scarf. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625349 Mon, 21 May 2012 19:25:06 +0000 Victoria 625349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look great in all outfits but my absolute favorite is number 1! I love the pop of color with your bag </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625346 Mon, 21 May 2012 19:19:13 +0000 Meredith1953 625346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The gray and yellow theme is so gorgeous!<br /> I love the punch that the scarf and those booties add to an already fab oufit in #1</p> <p>What a lovely scarf in #2 to go wit the gray A-line. I also love the color the booties provide and the pattern mixing!</p> <p>Beautiful dress. It was thrifted? Amazing and the denim jacket looks lovely with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625342 Mon, 21 May 2012 19:14:48 +0000 christieanne 625342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your outfits just keep getting better and better! I think your solution for weather is a good one - it always comes back to layers doesn't it?<br /> But I really LOVE the dress and jean jacket - such a timeless look with the spin of the denim. </p> <p>Sorry your day off got interrupted! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625341 Mon, 21 May 2012 19:14:40 +0000 Vildy 625341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More great looks from you! I love to see how you put things together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---the-rest-of-my-week#post-625327 Mon, 21 May 2012 19:01:13 +0000 Sveta 625327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are 3 more outfits from last week which I wanted to post separately:<br /> pic#1<br /> How do you dress for those days when it is 5C in the morning and 26C during the day - and you walk to work? I find this weather really challenging in this regard.<br /> Gap striped boatneck top<br /> Express Editor trousers<br /> Danier leather jacket<br /> Chromia red satchel<br /> black and golden-yellow silk scarf from Paris street vendor<br /> David Tate animal print booties<br /> pic #2<br /> Another work day - trying to give my charcoal sheath a couple of more outings before I retire it:<br /> Jessica charcoal sheath - thrifted<br /> White/black striped sweater and white/black polka dot scarf - Winners<br /> Hue leggings - The Bay<br /> Hush Puppies yellow / white oxfords</p> <p>pic #3<br /> I wore this on Sunday to see Cirque du Soleil. It was very hot when we walked there but cooled down in the evening:<br /> Ellen Tracy silk sequin dress - via consignment<br /> ON white denim jacket<br /> Clarks raspberry gladiators<br /> Black and white striped patent clutch - small boutique find</p> <p>I hoped for either relaxing or productive in household chores day off today but there was another emergency at work and I had to work from home last night and this morning..so no outfits for today! </p>
