I think it takes the right person to be able to carry it off and you sure do it well. I love them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-369072 Sat, 18 Jun 2011 15:12:24 +0000 Angie 369072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope that I am a kind person in your head :)</p> <p>Thanks for thinking of me when you wear pearls. I think of you whenever I see a Kate Spade item - which you know, is everyday, because I can shop Kate Spade in my closet. Those are happy thoughts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368982 Sat, 18 Jun 2011 13:14:42 +0000 ButterflyLady 368982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love looking at your WIWs, Mary. Once again, you don't disappoint. I absolutely love #3, I have to keep taking sneaky peeks at it, because you look so fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368841 Sat, 18 Jun 2011 02:47:29 +0000 rae 368841@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, I never get tired of seeing your lovely looks. I remember so many of the pieces and yet you always remix them in new and fun ways. Loving the nude shoes and the scarf in #2... I especially like the bright colors on a rainy day (thought of you this am as I donned my bright citron dress to go out in the gloom). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368773 Sat, 18 Jun 2011 01:33:49 +0000 Kyle 368773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your outfits always feel fresh and new, even if it's something I have seen before. That's not easy to pull off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368771 Sat, 18 Jun 2011 01:33:04 +0000 Kyle 368771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your outfits always feel fresh and new, even if it's something I have seen before.

I do not think that it is too much going all in #1, pearls look splendidly with that jacket and nude shoes let the jacket shine even more.<br /> #2-3 is simply such a gorgeous color combination I cannot stand it! Looks like you just need to add some yellow and you are all ready for that Ornela's CYMK challenge!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368705 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 23:26:18 +0000 Ornella 368705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay yay yay. Here is one of MaryK's looks I can and know how to copy.</p> <p>Number 2.</p> <p>T-shirt, tick.<br /> Trousers, tick.<br /> Bra, tick.<br /> Shoes, tick.</p> <p>The rest...? Nah, I'll leave you to peacefully reign in the Kingdom of Color and Patterns. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368669 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 22:17:31 +0000 JulieJohn 368669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mary, #3 is RGB Mach 2! I love it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368665 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 22:13:14 +0000 Aida 368665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Inspiring color palettes as usual, love both outfits! I'm with Lisa, having the nude shoes in #1 really lets the jacket SHINE and I don't find the pearls too busy at all (actually dig the shine they give). #2 is a fantastic visual for how much killer accessories can amp up an otherwise simple outfit. LOVE the magenta+red+blue+green going on here, very cool colorblocking (red-&gt;fuchsia-&gt;blue-&gt;green, all secondary colors next to each other on the color wheel, clever!). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368625 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 20:05:35 +0000 Anonymous 368625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love all the colors, you look beautiful!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368580 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 18:37:09 +0000 Suz 368580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh! I just LOVE what you do with colour! You look amazing. I'm in love with look 1. You are such an inspiration to me. And thanks also for the link to the cami/bra. I should be able to remember it, because that's my daughter's name, spelled just so! Come to think of it, she's kind of a moving comfort, herself... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368570 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 18:27:40 +0000 MsMary 368570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, it's the Moving Comfort "Maia" and it doesn't squish the girls at all. It's an underwire and it comes in actual cup sizes, then it has a cami-like layer over the whole thing. You can see it pretty well here: <a href="http://www.zappos.com/moving-comfort-maia-bra-white" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/moving-c.....-bra-white</a> and here: <a href="http://www.styleceo.com/images/stores/1023/m/moving-comfort-maia-sports-bra-6684383" rel="nofollow">http://www.styleceo.com/images.....ra-6684383</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368564 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 18:21:18 +0000 catgirl 368564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Outfit #1: I die. You are a confection of color and style!</p> <p>Outfit #2 is pretty darn fab too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368560 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 18:18:52 +0000 Lisa 368560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I think I actually like that plaid blazer with the nude shoes more than with the pink one's. The pink tie in the blazer but the nude let the blazer's colors really shine on their own. Nice remix! Sports bra instead of a cami huh, hmm, I had not thought of this. But are the ahem "girls" squished all day then? (or maybe it's just because mine are high impact for running). And I am happy to see a scarf, I have one on today (it's 80F) and people are in a tizzy that I am wearing a scarf. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368540 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 17:35:47 +0000 MsMary 368540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awww... Angie, you are totally making my day!! *blushing furiously*</p> <p>And I ALWAYS give a tip of the hat to you when I wear pearls! Plus, OMG you are so in my head! Yesterday I was all "hmmm... Should I wear the off-white patent leather pumps to bookend the pearls?" LOL Angie-speak, anyone? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368538 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 17:28:08 +0000 Angie 368538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was sure that I commented here. Hmmm. Clearly I need more tea.</p> <p>KILLER outfits, Mary! Did you wear the pearls for me? Now that I have met you, I can *really* see how the way you dress reflects your colourful and bright soul. That my dear, it part of what makes a killer style in my book - and you have it down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368532 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 17:14:04 +0000 Debora 368532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such gorgeous colors! You are such an inspiration, MaryK! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368527 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 17:07:05 +0000 teri 368527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>wow....

They are miles long! I wish we could do a bicoastal clothing swap! I'd love to trade that milly jacket for the green check one for a while :)</p> <p>You look great in both of these and I am honored to be an inspiration for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368476 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 15:24:10 +0000 Sparky 368476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yowza. You look absolutely amazing in all three pics. Can I borrow your gorgeous legs for a bit? That first outfit launched me into orbit, to borrow from Angie. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368474 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 15:21:55 +0000 Freckles 368474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning as always MaryK. Thanks for pics 2 and 3. I would have felt put together in pic 2 and maybe thrown on a black jacket/cardigan but you showing us pic 3 is a great learning tool. Superb as always, sorry your post got eaten. Hope the day continues along without bumps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-616-and-617-with-nude-shoe-shoutout-to-modgrl#post-368466 Fri, 17 Jun 2011 15:13:19 +0000 MsMary 368466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Argh! The forum just ate my post and now I'm late for work! I'll put the photos up again and re-post the details when I get to the office!</p> <p>Ahem. Okay, I'm here and settled in for what I hope will be a quiet Friday at work! :)</p> <p>Yesterday was nice and sunny so I busted out my beloved plaid Trina Turk blazer. Usually I wear this with my pink Kate Spade pumps but I was inspired by modgrl's rocking the nude shoes this week so I wore my Franco Sarto's and was really happy with how it turned out. This was also the first time I'd worn a necklace with this jacket and although it's a lot going on I think it worked.</p> <p>Green/pink plaid blazer: Trina Turk<br /> Lime green knit tank: AT Loft via consignment<br /> Navy pinstripe pencil skirt: hand-me-down from my BFF<br /> Multi-strand pearls: J Crew via eBay<br /> Green leather tote: Coach via eBay<br /> Nude non-flatform sandals: Franco Sarto</p> <p>Today it's cool and RAINING (!) so I am in bundle-up-a-little mode. I showed the under-layer because I am really digging the sports-bra-as-cami look for questionable-for-the-office necklines. I also like that extra pop of black to tie in the black pants. And although the photo looks kind of red and cobalt, this outfit is really magenta and teal!</p> <p>Magenta tee: Target<br /> Black sports bra: Moving Comfort<br /> Black dress pants: Atelier Luxe<br /> Teal trapeze jacket: Talbots via consignment<br /> Teal/red/magenta/green floral scarf: Target<br /> Red patent pumps: Madden Girl<br /> Black microfishnet trouser socks: Target<br /> Ginormous PINK "diamond" earrings: gift from my son when he was about 7 or 8<br /> Same green tote</p> <p>Thanks for looking! I always appreciate your constructive criticism! </p>
