I usually have somewhat of a poison eye for plaid shirts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1271760 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 00:27:56 +0000 Aida 1271760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una, I totally accept the compliment as that is just what I was going for&nbsp;-- Pretty Punk </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1271748 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 00:21:24 +0000 catgirl 1271748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You make plaid so - dare I say? - pretty. With white and heels it's a whole different PNW look. Love it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1271745 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 00:20:03 +0000 Aida 1271745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks QG! I'm all for upscale plaid ^^ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1271604 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 21:36:07 +0000 Quietgirl 1271604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>who would think that plaid could look so upscale? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1271600 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 21:33:36 +0000 Aida 1271600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aw ladies thanks so much! I actually debated heavily with myself about keeping the jeans but am ultimately glad that I did, and it's nice to hear forum approval for them since I was soooo unsure. And more than happy to burst the idea of plaid only for fall, I say More Plaid For All :D</p> <p>Chouette and Rae, I've actually been this size for a good while now but my brain just hadn't caught up due to partially to oversized fits&nbsp;and partially to the weight loss being long term&nbsp;and gradual (totally revamped diet + exercise, it was more of a lifestyle change than anything). It's taken me a long time to adjust; I don't think I'm all the way there, though certainly an improvement over where my mind was last year when I first recognized it was happening.</p> <p>Angie, you could actually pull 2/3&nbsp;in exact items from your closet! Which makes me smile ^^</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1271414 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 18:30:37 +0000 Anonymous 1271414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this! (as usual :)). I like the fact that the plaid is a very light coloured one and looks great with your new skinnies. Your jeans are a fab length with your shoes and I like the attention to detail of the tint of your sunnies toning with your shirt. Fab eye for detail! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1271372 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 17:35:16 +0000 Isabel 1271372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just awesome. Who would think that a plaid shirt could look so "summery" and light ? &nbsp;WOW. &nbsp;And the PPL is just.perfect.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1271335 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 16:52:52 +0000 Mona 1271335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another great outfit, Aida. White skinnies are spot on and these grey ankle pumps look too fabulous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1271251 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 15:20:31 +0000 Angie 1271251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can duplicate this outfit by shopping my closet. I love it Aida - biased of course. Those zippered white skinnies are the perfect fit and length with the ankle straps.&nbsp;</p> <p>SO FUN TO HAVE YOU BACK. Missed you so much. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1271160 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 13:54:34 +0000 rae 1271160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So good! The plaid looks so fresh and un-lumberjack-y with the white jeans (although you know I love a lumberjack look, too). Jealous that you have been shrinking; I've gone the other way, lol. Hm, I miss wearing plaid... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1271047 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 11:43:45 +0000 Ornella 1271047@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This one beats all your recent outfits! Amazing (gorgeous) hair to (pointy) toe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1271042 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 11:39:20 +0000 chouette22 1271042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing! I love this outfit on you so much. The skinnies are absolutely perfect with those shoes and fit you SO well. Yes, you look very trim - did you go on a diet&nbsp;or just worked out more? Very practical that you can use the older pants for the slouchy fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1270951 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 07:03:10 +0000 Aida 1270951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the lovely comments and also the&nbsp;feedback about the skinnies! They photographed a bit more snug due to them being white, but I'm very happy with their lightly-relaxed fit ^^</p> <p>Jules, how interesting that no one near you is into the faded denim. I don't think it ever went away where I live, but maybe not for the case of being fab ;)</p> <p>Suz, yes the shoes are quite comfortable! I think it'll take me&nbsp;a little longer than Angie to get them to mold to my feet (I don't do as much walking nor as quickly), but so far so good. I'm <i>always</i> happy to encourage more plaid wearing in all seasons&nbsp;-- if I could only wear one pattern, it would be any kind of check :D</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1270817 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 03:03:18 +0000 Suz 1270817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The new jeans are perfect with the perfect new shoes! Do you find the shoes comfortable as Angie does? Hope so. I also love the plaid. First pants, now shirt....you are singlehandedly changing all my (silly)&nbsp;fixed ideas about plaid being a "fall" pattern.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1270810 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 02:58:13 +0000 Jaime 1270810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those skinnies work perfectly with those shoes. They are skinnies but not the skin tight variety and they look great. And your hair is just gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1270800 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 02:44:32 +0000 Karie 1270800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the way your ankle strap pumps meet with the hemline of your white skinnies. The plaid shirt lends an air of playfulness to the outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1270779 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 02:18:29 +0000 Anonymous 1270779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those skinnies were made for you and look fantastic with your white ankle-strap pumps and plaid shirt.&nbsp; I like the gold jewelry with this outfit too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1270768 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 02:03:06 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1270768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love plaid with white! This is a great combination. I really like the fit of those skinnies on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1270758 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 01:45:23 +0000 Jules 1270758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab as always Aida! Just picked up white and very faded blue skinnies today, and did think of you as I don't know anyone IRL loving faded denim the way I am these days. I love your unexpected (to me) styling. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white#post-1270641 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 23:36:39 +0000 Aida 1270641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After some nice sunny weather, we've got some clouds passing through for a couple of days. This is a favorite pairing for this plaid shirt -- with white jeans and light shoes. I've worn the combo previously with my gold smoking slippers, white pointy pumps, and <a href="http://aida.lookfab.com/post/wiw-0401-05" rel="nofollow">cream booties</a>. This iteration makes me equally happy; I really like how the light gray suede adds a little extra texture and color dimension, plus with the open heel it feels a bit more summery (even when the weather doesn't look it). With the ankle interest (cropped pants with zippers + shoe straps) I kept the rest of the outfit simple, opting to leave the oversized plaid shirt untucked to play further into the cropped proportions. Added <i>giant </i>gold hoops and sequined clutch for a touch of sass-and-glam, and orange lip gloss for a little extra color differentiation.</p> <p>These new white jeans (and their faded blue sibling I also bought)&nbsp;are the first pair of properly fitting skinnies I've worn in years (!!) as me shrinking had caused all of my previously properly fitting skinny jeans to become baggy/slouchy skinny jeans over the past few years. Which actually worked out nicely with those fits trending. However, I've been wanting to update a couple of them to relaxed skinnies for a more streamlined fluid&nbsp;look, especially in white since I wear white often; plus&nbsp;this slimmer white pair will work much better in fall/winter tucked into tall boots than my other slouchy straight leg pair does. A very welcome addition to my denim wardrobe! Now I can wear 2x as many white jean outfits ^^</p> <p>Available items collected below. Comments, critiques, thoughts and questions welcome.</p>
