I have had tons of fun seeing your decorating inspiration on Pinterest. Best of luck with the house - I am decorating for the first time and it is so tiring yet fantabulous fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617-and-618-stripes-on-stripes-and-its-easy-being-green#post-1281885 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 02:34:54 +0000 annagybe 1281885@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the second one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617-and-618-stripes-on-stripes-and-its-easy-being-green#post-1281883 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 02:34:09 +0000 MsMary 1281883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much, ladies!!</p> <p>Aida, I'm planning on doing the house mostly in blues, which I hope will be serene!!&nbsp; And yeah, I bought a bunch of pointy shoes early this spring and feel like it was a great instant wardrobe update!!&nbsp; Big fun!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617-and-618-stripes-on-stripes-and-its-easy-being-green#post-1281878 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 02:30:39 +0000 Aida 1281878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ack the double stripe is sooo fabulous! Totally works. I see what Suz is saying about the sunnies adding another dark element; I have a hunch the look would still work without them, though. Adore the gold bag with the tans and gold, yummy. If your home ends up in the colors of the second outfit, you will have a serene home indeed ^^ Great rich olives in that one. Have I told you how much I love that you've been&nbsp;updating your shoes to pointies? Love! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617-and-618-stripes-on-stripes-and-its-easy-being-green#post-1281857 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 02:16:38 +0000 Karie 1281857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the stripe on stripe works wonderfully well. I don't really know why, but they look fantastic! Your green outfit is also divine - I love those olive pumps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617-and-618-stripes-on-stripes-and-its-easy-being-green#post-1281835 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 02:07:04 +0000 Jaime 1281835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love you in orange, love the olive blazer.

I think the stripes work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617-and-618-stripes-on-stripes-and-its-easy-being-green#post-1281670 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 00:16:38 +0000 nancywalters 1281670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the first outfit.&nbsp; The shoes put it over the top.&nbsp; Orange is a difficult color for most people to wear but you look beautiful wearing it.&nbsp; With the striped blazer I think the sunnies bring it all together.&nbsp; In the absence of the sunnies perhaps a black bag would pull more of the black into the outfit. Green is my favorite color so I adore both green ensembles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617-and-618-stripes-on-stripes-and-its-easy-being-green#post-1281667 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 00:14:38 +0000 Alana in Canada 1281667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're right, the tripe on stripe is complicated, but it works! The green outfit is lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617-and-618-stripes-on-stripes-and-its-easy-being-green#post-1281656 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 00:08:51 +0000 Laurie 1281656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That Theory blazer stops me every time. I love that thing. It makes the outfit for me.</p> <p>how cute are those shoes in #1? &nbsp;And you are the one who can pull off ANYTHING, including the stripe on stripe. &nbsp;Love it.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617-and-618-stripes-on-stripes-and-its-easy-being-green#post-1281645 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 23:55:44 +0000 Suz 1281645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MsMary - I think #1 works, also! Partly because your matchy matchy shoes kick it up about ten notches (so to speak), and partly because of your specs. I'm not sure how it would look with jacket sans sunnies, you know? On a dark haired person it would definitely fly (to this eye) .</p> <p><b>LOVE</b> your matchy greens. Goldenpig should sign in just to see your splendour.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617-and-618-stripes-on-stripes-and-its-easy-being-green#post-1281628 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 23:42:37 +0000 MsMary 1281628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1/2.&nbsp; Yesterday I decided to go Full ALGO with this stripes on stripes outfit.&nbsp; I think it kind of worked even though the jacket and the top have a bit of a complicated relationship!</p> <p>Tan pencil skirt:&nbsp; Halogen<br />Orange striped top:&nbsp; J Crew<br />Striped blazer:&nbsp; AT Loft<br />Orange pumps:&nbsp; Seychelles<br />Gold bag:&nbsp; Michael Kors<br />Circle pendant:&nbsp; gift from Ornella</p> <p>3/4.&nbsp; Today's outfit is a tribute to all the "green" I'm contemplating laying out as I contemplate buying and fixing up a house!&nbsp; ;)&nbsp; I think the star of this outfit is the fab bag Adelfa contributed to the swap at last year's Shoptoberfest!</p> <p>Green pencil skirt:&nbsp; Halogen<br />Silk "bee" blouse:&nbsp; Emerson Made<br />Olive blazer:&nbsp; Theory<br />Studded belt:&nbsp; Streets Ahead<br />Olive pumps:&nbsp; Jessica Simpson<br />Green bag:&nbsp; Nanette Lepore via YLF swap</p> <p>Thanks for looking!&nbsp; What say you all to these looks?&nbsp; I always appreciate your honest feedback! </p>
