Super easy and voila! I'm in business! Give it a try!!

(Where do you live -- it would be fun to participate in a swap with you! I'm in the DC area) I particularly like #1, and 5/6. Very very classy. Like the gray bag - I'm digging that shape on a bag lately. I have got to start posting photos....no one is ever available to shoot snaps of me when I have a good outfit on, it seems. My husband gave it a try at DCA today when I took him to the airport - he was very complimentary of my YLF-inspired outfit, including my Hidden Hills jeans and my Brooks Bro no-iron fitted blouse!

You look fabulous - I particularly like #1 and the elegant lady-like-ness (is that even a word?!) of #5.

(big surprise, eh? LOVE your scarf in #1, LOVE the turquoise earrings paired with the red in #2 (and the too-cool-for-school shades paired with the gangster pinstripes and oxfords), and LOVE the blouse and dark gray heels in #3!! Great midi in #3 too, I like that length a lot.

There is really no substitute for trying stuff on to make sure it works! I'm going to try and do Thursday and Friday tonight.

Nice idea to pair brights for interviewing a child, I bet she wasn't scared. The blazer in #5 looks a tad boxy, especially when comparing to the fit and shape of #1. rae on "WIW 5/9, 5/10, 5/11: More bright colors, more midi madness" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-59-510-511-more-bright-colors-more-midi-madness#post-347840 Wed, 11 May 2011 16:30:03 +0000 rae 347840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love your midi and gray pumps!
