I do like both versions. Gorgeous as usual. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-718-a-near-miss#post-984244 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 21:02:19 +0000 Anonymous 984244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I'd like it best as worn in 2 but without the belt or a belt closer to the color of the blouse so that it doesn't fight with the tie for attention. I like the nude shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-718-a-near-miss#post-984236 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 20:53:30 +0000 biscuitsmom 984236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Knock me over with a feather, you fine lady! WOW!!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-718-a-near-miss#post-984233 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 20:52:07 +0000 Beth Ann 984233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh dear, I prefer the nude shoes!&nbsp; In every shot the colors and shapes are lovely, as always.&nbsp; I'm not fan of the sleeves, although they could be altered --- also the top part of the tie could be afixed to the neckline with a simple handstich --- I need to do it with one of mine!&nbsp; Sometimes my willingness to alter or not tells me how much I'm enjoying a garment.&nbsp; No harm in passing it on, although I love the print and color on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-718-a-near-miss#post-984220 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 20:36:14 +0000 Anonymous 984220@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the final version just fine. The blue shoes sing!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-718-a-near-miss#post-984216 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 20:34:34 +0000 MsMary 984216@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, Anna, the neckline bugs me, too.&nbsp; I'm thinking I need to break up with this blouse!&nbsp; LOL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-718-a-near-miss#post-984213 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 20:32:59 +0000 annagybe 984213@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a huge problem with that neckline. Specifically that sliver of skin showing between the tie and rest of the blouse. It just looks off to me.<br /> Colors are nice. Blue shoes helped immensely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-718-a-near-miss#post-984193 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 20:16:40 +0000 AviaMariah 984193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I personally love #1 but that may just be my love for minimalism coming out. &nbsp;I do think it looks better with the the bow tied up higher. &nbsp;I think that color yellow looks really great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-718-a-near-miss#post-984171 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 20:00:46 +0000 Transcona Shannon 984171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning color combination! Seriously.</p> <p>I do think that perhaps the belt is competing a bit with the tie on the blouse. What about tucking the blouse in or leaving it untucked, but not belted? although that may be too casual looking for your work.</p> <p>What would your navy/gold Seychelles pumps look like with this? I know the blue wouldn't match your topper, but it might "go"? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-718-a-near-miss#post-984167 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 19:57:52 +0000 Thistle 984167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Going to give this a try: Perhaps your white Classiques Entier topper instead of the blue and then a fab purse in that blue instead.</p> <p>Or, perhaps bookend the blue with similar color shoes. </p> <p>Still, you look terrific, so no need to change anything! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-718-a-near-miss#post-984137 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 19:28:50 +0000 Mona 984137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>yes, I agree with rachy. The tie confuses the eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-718-a-near-miss#post-984135 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 19:26:58 +0000 Anonymous 984135@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it better with the cardi. I think the sleeves look overwhelming. I think tucked in to the skirt too? I see what Rachy says about the tie. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-718-a-near-miss#post-984132 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 19:24:54 +0000 rachylou 984132@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the tie in front of the belt obscures the view, is too relaxed maybe... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-718-a-near-miss#post-984128 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 19:22:17 +0000 Sona 984128@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It sings to me...but maybe blue pumps might make to sing to you more or&nbsp; an unexpected printed shoe? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-718-a-near-miss#post-984127 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 19:20:43 +0000 MsMary 984127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm feeling like this outfit isn't quite what it could be but I couldn't quite get it to sing.&nbsp; Any suggestions for improvement would be greatly appreciated!</p> <p>White pencil skirt:&nbsp; Halogen<br />Yellow silk blouse:&nbsp; Anthropologie via eBay<br />White belt:&nbsp; thifted<br />Teal cardi:&nbsp; Halogen<br />Yellow/tan pumps:&nbsp; Seychelles<br />Tan tote:&nbsp; Merona<br />White watch:&nbsp; Oniss</p> <p>What say you? </p> <p>ETA tied the pussy bow differently to show the belt.&nbsp; A little better, I think.&nbsp; But honestly, maybe it's time to let this blouse go.&nbsp; I loved it when I got it but the neckline is a little problematic and I can see what you mean about the sleeves being a little overwhelming.</p> <p>Isn't it funny how we can fall out of love with pieces in our closets?</p> <p>ETA 2:&nbsp; Changed out the shoes and yes, that's better.&nbsp; Going back to work after lunch at home, so this is it for the day!&nbsp; But keep those suggestions coming!&nbsp; :)</p>
