The purse is absolutely gorgeous. I will have to create an outfit around those colors. <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-883107 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:19:25 +0000 annaj 883107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love your outfit! I wear my pendant necklaces with button-downs, but I have them inside my shirt and around my neck (ie next to my skin) rather than over the collar. I find it just helps tie things together a little better for me. Might be worth a try! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-881720 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 03:22:27 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 881720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Another winner Mary.&nbsp; I really like the look of the oxfords with this outfit.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-881478 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 22:18:55 +0000 rae 881478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love the tonal mint! I had no idea churches had dotted lines... Glad you have found a good fit! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-881460 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 22:04:09 +0000 Aida 881460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Cute! I have no problem with pendants and button-downs, I vote overthinking unless the buttons are actually crashing against the pendant and things are getting chipped https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-881233 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 18:03:31 +0000 Vicki 881233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look "mintylicious" and I love how the black and white of your shoes and purse play along in the outfit. &nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-881190 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 17:29:38 +0000 Sara L. 881190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I've never figured out pendant necklaces with button-down's either.&nbsp; I usually wear a short chain inside the shirt&nbsp;or a bib sort outside the collar (rounder and higher).&nbsp; I hope that makes sense.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-881189 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 17:28:57 +0000 Aziraphale 881189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Nope, not boring.&nbsp; Very cute, just like you.&nbsp; ;-)<br /><br />Visually speaking, I'm not sure that the buttons fight the necklace -- they are very light in colour, you can barely see them in the pic, and the pendant is bold and dark.&nbsp; But functionally, if they bang into the buttons, they might fight a little.&nbsp; It would make me crazy, but then again that's just me, because I can't tolerate a lot of dangly-ness under any circumstances.&nbsp; That necklace would look just as fab as a choker, nestled into the V of your button-front shirt.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-881050 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 15:43:29 +0000 Tina.b 881050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Just adore these colours and they look gorgeous on you!

It's the only suggestion - either no necklace or something bigger and up top more. Otherwise not boring - fun. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-880955 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 14:09:23 +0000 Transcona Shannon 880955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love this combination - it looks comfortable while being totally put together and fashion forward. So cool how the black/white polka dots in&nbsp;TCPITW work with the black/white Doc Martens - brilliant! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-880738 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 03:17:54 +0000 Jaime 880738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You think this is too simple? I think it is amazing and way too complicated for me to possibly understand. I love that bag and how it plays with the mint shirt. Love the trousers with the shoes. You look super(B)! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-880703 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 02:34:09 +0000 Beth Ann 880703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I will forever more imagine you as the T-Rex from Toy Story.&nbsp; Kinda cute and cuddly.&nbsp; Truly, I never noticed your "petite" arms.&nbsp; I thought the sleeves were just too short!&nbsp; Maybe it's the fabnness of TCPITW<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-880657 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 01:06:44 +0000 Thistle 880657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ T-Rex arms made me chuckle!<br /><br />you look great. &nbsp;Simple and elegant. &nbsp;That purse and shoes really make the outfit, but you give them the perfect backdrop to do so, and by keeping it simple, nothing competes. &nbsp;Simple yet perfect. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-880653 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 01:02:59 +0000 annagybe 880653@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ My pastel clutch is aqua (currently MIA) I wear it with mint all the freaking time. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-880598 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 00:13:29 +0000 Marley 880598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Its so nice to see TCPITW come out to play!&nbsp; I think this outfit is perfect.&nbsp; Love the pants with the pale mint - and the shoes work so well too!&nbsp; It all makes me smile.&nbsp; I have often wondered the same thing about necklaces with button-downs - sorry I can't help you with that - hopefully someone will come along who can share the secret! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-880586 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 00:04:28 +0000 sarah 880586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh good grief, that purse is OUT OF THIS WORLD! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-880578 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 00:01:13 +0000 Raisin 880578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great outfit! &nbsp;You can't go wrong with TCPITW though, I love it! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-880555 Sun, 17 Mar 2013 23:48:21 +0000 MsMary 880555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Beth Ann, great idea to scrunch the sleeves.&nbsp; They're supposed to be 3/4 length but I guess on my T-Rex arms they look like too-short long sleeves!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-880552 Sun, 17 Mar 2013 23:46:19 +0000 Beth Ann 880552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love the simplicity.&nbsp; There are several amazing details that prevent this from ever being boring:<br />1.&nbsp; High contrast, strong shoes<br />2.&nbsp; Tuxedo Stripe<br />3. TCPIW<br /><br />I do the sleeves seem a twinge short, and the cuffs a little large.&nbsp; A little scrunch or fold?<br /><br />Glad to hear you found a church home.&nbsp; A faith family is a precious thing and I'm sure they're excited to have you!&nbsp; <br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-317-minty-freshness-to-join-the-church#post-880550 Sun, 17 Mar 2013 23:44:58 +0000 Suz 880550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Simple can be smart.
