I'm sure you've noticed that most of my jackets are almost-cropped or cropped, but I do understand that not everyone likes those and I can see what you're saying for #3 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23/page/2#post-580965 Wed, 28 Mar 2012 20:19:59 +0000 ironkurtin 580965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! I love all of these looks!</p> <p>Except... I don't adore the cropped jacket over the outfit with the shorts (in #3). I'm not a cropped jacket fan period, though, so take it for what it's worth. The rest of that outfit is spot on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23/page/2#post-580949 Wed, 28 Mar 2012 20:10:56 +0000 catgirl 580949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#3 is OFF THE CHARTS! And I love the orange and grey combo in #1. Way to rock it Aida-style. I am all over orange - the current trend is finally the right shade for me of true orange (not pumpkin or melon or coral). YAY! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23/page/2#post-580946 Wed, 28 Mar 2012 20:08:51 +0000 Sarah A 580946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love your wiws here... So hare to pick a fave as all are great looks. I think that 1 and 4 are really hitting inspiration for me. Thanks for posting! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23/page/2#post-580927 Wed, 28 Mar 2012 19:59:15 +0000 Aida 580927@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Jonesy, Amy, Joy, and Zap!</p> <p>Jonesy, I am thrilled to be your semi-tuck inspiration </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23/page/2#post-580151 Wed, 28 Mar 2012 02:02:12 +0000 Anonymous 580151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so glad to see your WIW's again! Amazing set! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23/page/2#post-580130 Wed, 28 Mar 2012 01:50:15 +0000 Anonymous 580130@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fabulous week! I love your spring palette and want to try orange and grey with blush now.<br /> My favorite is #1 followed closely by 3 and 5. The flats look great with this outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23/page/2#post-580099 Wed, 28 Mar 2012 01:30:19 +0000 Amy 580099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your style, Aida! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23/page/2#post-580066 Wed, 28 Mar 2012 01:10:20 +0000 Jonesy 580066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So fab!! These are all Aida-tastic, but I really love 1 and 3--you are just so gorgeous in that orange!! And I always love your shorts/tights look.</p> <p>I should also tell you that I think you have been my #1 inspiration for the partial tuck :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23/page/2#post-579923 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 23:17:18 +0000 Aida 579923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly I hear you. I'm working on that with my red jeans right now &gt;&lt; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579915 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 23:11:19 +0000 kellygirl 579915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Aida: If I can ever fit back into them, I will post a WIW ; ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579909 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 23:03:37 +0000 Aida 579909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh you guys, thank you SO MUCH for all of your wonderful comments and feedback!! I am so flattered and humbled. To all who commented on me in orange, bright orange is one of my favorite colors so I am making sure to stock up while it's available :D</p> <p>Mary, woo jacket triplets! Can't wait to see your orange+gray bottoms outfit. #2 was based on that one outfit we both wore last year with the white blazer (remember that one?), but instead of a white blazer I wore a cream sweater ^^</p> <p>Shevia, ooh it does look like it's on fire! I kind of love that :)</p> <p>Manidipa, well I just didn't know which button to click, boost or comedy! Love the pun (I'm a punny gal myself), teehee!</p> <p>Deborah, glad you like the pattern mix! I've been finding these flats quite fun to mix with and am now on the hunt for another patterned shoe. Surprisingly versatile!</p> <p>Fashionista, I am actually petite too (5'3") and I love my wide leg pants (I have an even wider pair of denim). I definitely think that us shorter gals can wear them; it can be tricky to find the right pair and proportions but it certainly can be done, especially with heels like I have here (though these are only 2.5" or so).</p> <p>Krish, thanks for the detailed feedback! You are spot on about the purse/scarf issues in #1 and #5. In #1, the browns are much much warmer than it appears in the photo so I think the purse works, but the scarf would probably have been better on the coral side (like in #2). In #5 I definitely should've worn my red purse or leopard scarf. I'll stop being lazy and swap my purses 0:)</p> <p>Butterfly, I don't get to wear my wide leg pants as often as I would like unfortunately. Most of the year the ground here is at least somewhat wet so I can only wear them in spring and summer when it's dry out since they all have hems to the ground.</p> <p>Angie, thank you so much! I had been feeling a bit fashion-slumped with our poor weather until I read your post on on <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2012/03/19/how-to-wear-spring-trends-in-winter-weather/">spring trends in winter</a> and put away some of my winter clothes. And then happily the weather started cooperating, and I just got very inspired I totally change outfit plans if it's dry enough to wear floor skimming hems, gotta sport 'em when we can!</p> <p>Natalie, awesome! I'm a big fan of shorts year-round so I can't wait to see what you come up with.</p> <p>Kelly, ooh I don't think I've seen you wear wide legs before? Can't wait to see! I am also looking forward to getting out my SUPER wide dark denim to wear with the orange blazer }:D </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579657 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 18:15:15 +0000 kellygirl 579657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Squee! I love your WIW's Aida! Every one of these is so stylish and uniquely you. My faves are 1 and 3. The orange blazer is to die for paired with the grey. You look so sassy. I always love your shorts outfits--you can do no wrong in this silhouette. It looks so sophisticated and edgy. The boots are fab with this! Awesome wide leg pants too--I want to incorporate more of this in my rotation too. Gorgeous all the way around, Aida! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579497 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 15:23:27 +0000 christy 579497@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab as always! Your shorts with tights outfits always stand out to me and this one is no exception. And I LOVE #4. That orange looks so terrific on you and the flats in #5 are super cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579487 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 15:18:04 +0000 goldenpig 579487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, these are all fantastic! You are right, #3 is one of your best outfits ever! I love how you pull off the shorts and tights look. I think you are inspiring me to dust off my own wool shorts that I bought last fall but haven't worn all that much. I love you in orange--#1 is such a great on-trend Spring look! You look great in polka dot tights too! I love seeing your WIW's, so inspiring! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579374 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 14:15:32 +0000 Angie 579374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All gorgeous outfits, Aida!! LOVE the dress with the flats and the chic-factor of #2 and #3. #1 screams Spring in the best Seattle way. </p> <p>You made me chuckle with your comment about #4: Only a Seattleite would understand that wearing wide leg trousers means that the weather has dried up. KILLER look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579322 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 13:45:05 +0000 sarah 579322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Aida, I love you in orange. That jacket is such a great find. You and Kelly are leading the pack with that one. And I love the other touches of orange, too, and the flats wtih the sweater dress, because they're so unexpected and fresh for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579300 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 13:27:08 +0000 Lisa 579300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1-Orange is YOUR color! This blazer just makes your skin glow.<br /> #2-I really like the layering here, the cropped sweater shows off your layering really well. And I like the white sweater and boots bookending here too.<br /> #3-Again bringing orange that's a great color with the taupes here. Swap out the shorts for jeans and we are enjoying the same fun outfit formula.<br /> #4-Now that is how to rock a wide leg trouser. I really like the drape of these on you.<br /> #5-The classic dress with the fun accessorizing and flats strikes me as a nice European look here. Great outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579259 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 12:40:54 +0000 Tanya 579259@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What an amazing set of outfits! You are so creative, and #3 is really out of this world! I love the idea of denim/chambray shirt with olive skinnies, will try that in the future. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579256 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 12:21:31 +0000 Sona 579256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love the play with orange and different bottoms ( shorts, flares, skinnies!). outfit # 5 is fab to the power of fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579247 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:49:18 +0000 ButterflyLady 579247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look gorgeous in orange, Aida. I share the love for #3, too, and #5 with the spotty legs - beautiful. I've not seen you in wide legs before, I don't think, they're lovely on you, you look really elegant. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579246 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:04:31 +0000 krishnidoux 579246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very inspirational! </p> <p>#1: Love, love love this combination. Not sure about the bag and scarf though. something seems off. Maybe it's the two together. </p> <p>#2: Cute and dynamic! Love the pairing of white boots with black coat!</p> <p>#3: Wow, so elegant. You show how to wear hot pants with sass and chic. And it looks totally appropriate. How do you do it?</p> <p>#4: Fresh, spring inspiring outfit, it looks so comfortable too. The orange necklace is the perfect little addition!</p> <p>#5: You are so lovely in dresses! And what a fun idea, those oversized polka dots. The bag is perfect, but again, I am not sure about the scarf. This scarf. I understand the off-setting intent, but it's just that the visual distance between the rest and the scarf seems too much. Also the bag's shade warms up the outfit, whereas this one cools it and one doesn't know which it is. Just my very personal perception. </p> <p>Thank you for posting! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579243 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 09:50:04 +0000 Jjsloane 579243@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic collection of outfits. I think my favorite is #3 - you look great in shorts and those boots. All the touches of orange are great (and just enough) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579226 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 09:22:58 +0000 Mona 579226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are rocking the orange blazer. #3 is my personal favourite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579209 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 06:55:04 +0000 fashionista 579209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My fav look too is #3. Loved the boots in them and the shorts over tights, and the layering is fabulous. Look #2 is also fav. Your orange blazer and grey bottom #1 is something I need to give a try. You carry wide leg pants so well, I would be drowned in them being petite. And loved your look and esp. flats in #5<br /> All in all great outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579205 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 06:47:46 +0000 Mo 579205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Admit to liking #3 so much I'm trying to save it as inspiration </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579201 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 06:29:25 +0000 Deborah 579201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can't pic a fave but seriously the shorts outfit is wonderful! I love those boots. And #5 is inspired. I love what you have done with the hose and the shoes...stunning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579175 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 05:05:31 +0000 ManidipaM 579175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aida, #1 is SO COOL it's positively hot! And by the way, there is no. such. thing. as 'too many Aida outfits' at once! That is some serious coinage!</p> <p>Also, no one wear shorts+tights+blazer like you do! And the pattern gradient is sheer, dotty genius! (sorry, couldn't resist!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579097 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 03:24:36 +0000 Meredith1953 579097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Wow!!! You had me at #1! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0319-23#post-579085 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 03:08:12 +0000 Transcona Shannon 579085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You realize of course that Angie is gonna be ALL OVER outfit #3!!!! Absolutely STUPENDOUS!!!</p> <p>I love you in orange - the blazer is fab, the scarf is fab...it's all FAB!</p> <p>I also adore the dress and polka dot hose in the last outfit. So chic! </p>
