This was my first blazer and I love it to bits. </p> <p>Gotta try wearing a white shirt underneath the lace top. The lace top is really big in certain areas, would it be possible to get something like this slimmed? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---week-of-the-statement-colour#post-816752 Sat, 12 Jan 2013 23:57:05 +0000 Karie 816752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey, Gap blazer buddy, I love the blazer in #2 - that's my fav of the three looks. I also think a lighter shirt in #3 would look better under the lace. I have also been wanting to copy Angie's look from that post! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---week-of-the-statement-colour#post-816530 Sat, 12 Jan 2013 20:06:11 +0000 MsMary 816530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all three of these! The jacket in #2 is amazing, and I really like the lace top in #3! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---week-of-the-statement-colour#post-816481 Sat, 12 Jan 2013 19:01:53 +0000 Anonymous 816481@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them all, though probably #1 is my favourite. They all seem really flattering silhouettes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---week-of-the-statement-colour#post-816465 Sat, 12 Jan 2013 18:47:47 +0000 Tina.b 816465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All the outfits are put together so cohesively and they are super flattering. I adore that blazer especially, I would wear something like that all the time. Gorgeous looks all three! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---week-of-the-statement-colour#post-816456 Sat, 12 Jan 2013 18:34:53 +0000 Transcona Shannon 816456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all absolutely fab Nanabear!</p> <p>#1 - really like the open cardigan so that the bright colour of your top shows more and then the belt to accentuate your tiny waist and beautiful figure. </p> <p>#2 - I can see why that jacket is loved - it's gorgeous! I love strong colour combos so this really appeals to me.</p> <p>#3 - oh my...that lace top is AMAZING! The way you've layered it over a sleek column of black is brilliant IMO. Love it like this! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---week-of-the-statement-colour#post-816246 Sat, 12 Jan 2013 15:20:28 +0000 Thistle 816246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really like #1! I love the colors together, and the texture of the sweater really makes the outfit. I also like how the belt pulls it together. Lovely! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---week-of-the-statement-colour#post-816245 Sat, 12 Jan 2013 15:18:45 +0000 Sheila 816245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorite is #1. For #3 I would like to see your beautiful lace top with something under it in a lighter color...maybe tan, lavender, rose, pink or pale blue. Just cannot see and appreciate the beauty of the lace with the dark shirt under it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---week-of-the-statement-colour#post-816183 Sat, 12 Jan 2013 09:18:49 +0000 Lyn D. 816183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I DO like #3. You could always swap the black shirt for white or cream, but as is looks good.<br /> The blazer in #2 has the wow factor with the white lapels- I can see why you love it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---week-of-the-statement-colour#post-816169 Sat, 12 Jan 2013 07:55:56 +0000 Asingh 816169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Outfit no.1 is fab! I really like how you've combined gray and orange and then topped it off with a brown belt and jeans (which appear to be more skinny to me than straight leg). I like outfit no.2 as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---week-of-the-statement-colour#post-816133 Sat, 12 Jan 2013 06:10:47 +0000 Nanabear 816133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Friday! I took 2 outfit photos this week (I had tests on the other days so wore my trusty lucky exam hoodie and battered sweatpants. Not a pretty sight) I consider myself a simple dresser - #1 is about as complicated as I'll go. I like using a pop of colour in an otherwise boring outfit (this week it's evidently reds). With exam season coming up, I will be disappearing for a while so this is probably my last thread for January. </p> <p>1: I fiddled with this combo quite a bit, and am pleased with the result. Grey knit cardigan, red turtleneck (appears orange in the photo), black skinnies, brown belt and booties.</p> <p>2: Possibly my most loved blazer w/ contrast lapels, blue straight leg jeans (appears black), bright pink shell (appears orange), black booties. The outfit is perhaps too simple but I like it.</p> <p>3: Okay, so I cheated a little. This isn't actually a WIW; I'm playing around with my new lace top to find ways to wear it. Here I have tried to adapt Angie's outfit: <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2012/10/10/jazzing-up-black-lace/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2012/10/.....lack-lace/</a>. I went for a neutral, low contrast look. Not sure if I like this. Recommendations appreciated! </p>
