Love that really worn wash on the chinos, and the earthier-overall palette on you especially mixed with the more urban black and cobalt pieces. Fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-59-orchids-and-new-chinos#post-1807429 Wed, 10 May 2017 19:07:15 +0000 Anonymous 1807429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow Janet!

Your shoes are great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-59-orchids-and-new-chinos#post-1807312 Wed, 10 May 2017 12:49:12 +0000 Eliza 1807312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like this look. Great styling to weave the green into your wardrobe. I also can find green a challenge and that is a good way to make it work. The jacket was a great find!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-59-orchids-and-new-chinos#post-1807311 Wed, 10 May 2017 12:49:04 +0000 Elizabeth P 1807311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great jacket... shoes... everything!</p> <p>Actually Janet, this is pretty much a perfect outfit in my eye.&nbsp; You look put together, yet not over the top put together.&nbsp; You have a statement piece, yet it's not an over the top statement. This is a much harder balance (for me anyway) to achieve than it should be. </p> <p>Congrats on the purge!&nbsp; If you find yourself wanting to get rid of those black watch jeans, and they have any life left in them, let me know....</p> <p>&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-59-orchids-and-new-chinos#post-1807309 Wed, 10 May 2017 12:48:04 +0000 Mirjana 1807309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fabulous in that pants and jacket. I agree with Anchie they are very versatile. I bought one similar color a couple years ago on purpose, on neon I thought they are khaki and was sad, but then they became my favorite pants because of versatility. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-59-orchids-and-new-chinos#post-1807302 Wed, 10 May 2017 12:18:57 +0000 anchie 1807302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I must admit, when you mentioned orchid bomber I envisioned something completely different This one however looks great on you.<br /> I have similar color casual pants and agree that they are surprisingly versatile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-59-orchids-and-new-chinos#post-1807295 Wed, 10 May 2017 12:04:17 +0000 Janet 1807295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Worn for lots of running around and errands before heading to TX for a few days. I braved these old Antelope platform sandals for the first time since I sprained my ankle, and all was well. </p> <p>This jacket was an emergency purchase in January in New Orleans -- I hadn't packed for cooler weather (NO was a last minute addition to a trip to Puerto Rico and St Croix), so I snapped up this orchid print bomber, along with a long sleeve tee and some socks. It has turned out to be a surprisingly good purchase! </p> <p>Worn with basic black tee and my new chinos from Anthro (one of two new pairs of summer pants I needed to refresh my summer bottoms this year). At first I was not sure about this greenish khaki color, but after putting it together with multiple tops from my closet, I realized that the color works well for me. </p> <p>The blue backpack bag works with so much of my wardrobe! I was ready to switch bags and then realized the jacket has a bit of bright blue. </p> <p>I did a review and edit of my holding zone -- a bunch of stuff went into the sell/donate pile, and a few things are packed up to take to the ranch. Witness the empty hangers! </p> <p>Comments &amp; suggestions always welcome. </p>
