Yes grey is that perfect counterpoint to the loudness of neons. Soul sucking beige works great with brights as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599744 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 06:43:26 +0000 Fruitful 599744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amazing outfit. I deeply love how you pair the wild blouse with the perfectly fitting, perfectly pressed grey pants. Into the stratosphere! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599702 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 04:17:26 +0000 MsMary 599702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, ladies!</p> <p>Aida and Rute, I will definitely try this blouse with white or off-white.</p> <p>And wow! This outfit got me a lot of attention today! People at work whom I barely know commented on it, and a lady stopped me in the frozen food aisle at Trader Joe's after work to say "I love your brights -- especially your shoes!" LOL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599638 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 02:48:20 +0000 Debora 599638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun blouse, and I loved the link to the stewardess photos! It looks wonderful paired with the gray. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599572 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 01:03:02 +0000 Aida 599572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FUN, especially with the pink shoes! Fab wide leg trousers, and I like Rute's suggestion to try pairing with cream as well. I used to have a vintage blouse quite a lot like this many years ago, ahh so good ^^ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599546 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 00:14:53 +0000 Lynne 599546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>only you would have the perfect pair of bright pumps ready to go with this outfit, Mary! Love to the power of love. And I want to see the PanAm look on a different thread :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599529 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 23:51:27 +0000 Jonesy 599529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto everything Ana just said! I *wish* I could go shopping with you fab YLF thrifters someday! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599360 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 18:00:53 +0000 Ana 599360@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That blouse is far out! I love it, MaryK! The wide leg pants are awesome, and I really like how you played everything else down and let the blouse kind of take center stage. Very clever! You look bright and fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599349 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 17:51:21 +0000 Kiwichik 599349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the blouse but it's a tough one to integrate into your wardrobe. I am so impressed that you have managed to totally make it your own. On some people that blouse would wear them but not you. Love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599310 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 16:46:43 +0000 MsMary 599310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the vintage love, ladies!</p> <p>Una, it's a specialty vintage store. They have the most. amazing. things. and the prices are really good -- I got this blouse, two dresses, and a leather belt for $94 total. They aren't online but I found a blog entry that gives a good description: <a href="http://www.christenbphotography.com/?p=2095" rel="nofollow">http://www.christenbphotography.com/?p=2095</a></p> <p>Jilly, I almost always like my outfits better without the jacket, too, but I work in a fairly formal setting and the men at my level wear coats and ties every day. So I feel like the jacket is pretty necessary. It spends most of the day hanging on a hanger on the coat rack in the corner of my office so everybody knows I know I'm supposed to wear a jacket, but I don't have to, you know, actually wear it all day! LOL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599306 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 16:38:56 +0000 rae 599306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OH! Fantastic playmate to the pink shoes!! It's so perfect I can't stand it - so happy those pants are getting the time in the sun they deserve. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599296 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 16:24:47 +0000 Anonymous 599296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such a pretty blouse...what a great find! I like how the suit tones it down a little. I'd never guess the suit wasn't sold as a set! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599279 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 15:57:55 +0000 Becky 599279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice! I think you're right to tone it down with gray so the blouse does the talking. Rute's idea of pairing with white or cream is also worth a try. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599278 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 15:57:38 +0000 catgirl 599278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So much fun! I wish I'd find stuff like this... And I'm glad to see your flares which seem to fit the way mine do (see my recent preppy outfit). Can't wait to see what else you got! Is this specifically a vintage boutique or a thrift store? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599260 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 15:29:14 +0000 Transcona Shannon 599260@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Now THAT is some blouse! No coffee needed in the morning when wearing that beauty! It's gorgeous MaryK (and I can hardly wait to so what else you scored from this store). I love it with the grey and of course, your hot pink shoes peeking out from underneath. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599256 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 15:19:25 +0000 Jilly 599256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great idea to pair the vintage blouse with gray pants! Love the colors on you, but I think I like it better without the jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599252 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 15:15:47 +0000 christieanne 599252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a vivid, stunning blouse - fun! I think the grey is a great solution. And there's more from this same shop? Will be tuning in . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599249 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 15:11:20 +0000 rute 599249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely color! I can see it also with a white or cream pencil skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-419-vintage-neon-with-gray#post-599247 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 15:04:23 +0000 MsMary 599247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was early for an appointment a couple of days ago and killed a little time in a vintage boutique nearby. Among other fab finds (stay tuned) I found this ridiculously fantastic neon-colored floral print pussy-bow blouse for $10! Amazing!</p> <p>When I got it home I found it harder to style than I expected, because when I paired it with other brights I started feeling like <a href="http://www.jetpsa.com/stewgrad/stewgrad.html">a 1970s stewardess</a>. Finally had the idea to pair it with gray and voila! </p> <p>Gray flared pants: YLF swap<br /> Gray ponte knit blazer: Halogen<br /> Neon print blouse: vintage store<br /> Gray belt: Target<br /> Pink patent pumps: Kate Spade<br /> Yellow bag: Dooney &amp; Bourke</p> <p>What say you all? </p>
