Carrying a little color or texture among various pieces makes sense and gives an overall harmony to your outfit.<br /> Great story behind your beautiful outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-54-inspired-by-nature-day-5--galapagos-tortoises#post-612356 Fri, 04 May 2012 17:56:09 +0000 ManidipaM 612356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect tortoise-shell stones! Natalie, this outfit is as special as your memories --- that image helped you create a fantastic outfit that is VERY VERY YOU! Ladylike, detailed, unexpectedly spunky for a 'lady', full of textural variation and an interesting dose of pattern. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-54-inspired-by-nature-day-5--galapagos-tortoises#post-612343 Fri, 04 May 2012 17:38:19 +0000 Transcona Shannon 612343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is brilliant Natalie - for this outfit, it's the accessories that put it into the perfect category...the necklace, bracelet and Fossil bag were made for this challenge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-54-inspired-by-nature-day-5--galapagos-tortoises#post-612340 Fri, 04 May 2012 17:33:49 +0000 goldenpig 612340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this picture is my favorite for the week--DH and I went to the Galapagos six years ago (our last big trip before we had kids) and went on a liveaboard boat diving with hammerhead and whale sharks and taking land tours to see all the amazing animals like the tortoises. It was an amazing trip, the trip of a lifetime! We hope to go there again someday with the kids when they are older.</p> <p>I initially didn't think I would be able to come up with anything good for this photo but it turned out to be one of my favorites! I used a $1 H&amp;M bracelet as the basis for this outfit--the big teal blocks remind me of the string of tortoises lying in the water. The chunky leopard and gold necklace also reminds me of the tortoise shells. Then the Lafayette 148 leather and tweed skirt reminds me of the mud they're lying in, and the White House Black Market gold satin blouse reminds me of the shimmery golden lake. The L148 cognac leather jacket and Timberland Stratham Heights cognac boots go well with the earthy color scheme and the Fossil purse I picked because the teal accents echo the teal colored bracelet (I'm matchy matchy that way--I thought the teal bracelet would look out of place all by itself). I really like how it looks all together and especially since I was able to use this blouse in a new outfit (I bought it with my pindot suit and kept thinking of it as part of that "set", so it's great to have some new options for it). And #7 is a pic of how it looks without the jacket on top.</p> <p>Thanks for looking! And thanks to Bella for a fun challenge and all the ladies that participated--love the fashion inspiration! </p>
