A K2K! *faints*</p> <p>Adelfa, I actually find the taupe boots surprisingly easy to wear. They are close to nude on me (or at least really low contrast w/ my skin tone) so they work pretty well with bare legs as well. They have darker distressing at the toe, which I think helps for us dark haired ladies. I have a lot of trouble with white shoes, so I think this is a good compromise since I often want something light to bookend light tops, and I almost never wear light bottoms, especially in winter. </p> <p>Lyn, I actually haven't been scrunching my sleeves lately. My sleeves never stay scrunched, and a rubber band inside them is uncomfortable, so I just haven't felt like fussing with them recently. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-855356 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 10:56:21 +0000 Jjsloane 855356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect pairing. I prefer unbuttoned. Drooling over this color/print combo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-855343 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 10:41:59 +0000 Molly L-R 855343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So cool! Perfect for a posh eclectic/English eccentric look. I prefer unbuttoned. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-855338 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 10:31:07 +0000 harmonica 855338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fresh and beautiful!

So refreshing. Also, interested in your comments about taupe boots. I have dark hair too and have been wondering if taupe booties have a place in my wardrobe. Great look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-855243 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 05:16:22 +0000 lyn* 855243@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can I vote for unbuttoned with scrunched sleeves? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-855235 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 04:53:26 +0000 Anonymous 855235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fresh and sassy and adorable.

Modern, too! Please wear again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854953 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 23:22:46 +0000 Tina.b 854953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such a perfect pairing! Love how the yellow trim of the blazer is echoed in the print. You look stunning. I am so weak for liberty prints, I have to restrain myself from ordering them when new pieces arrive on the J crew website. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854879 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 21:55:04 +0000 christieanne 854879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are totally made for each other! Love with the softer wash jeans too. Looks like a "happy" outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854744 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 20:01:58 +0000 kellygirl 854744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yah, what rachylous said!

Super smart!</p> <p>I like the jacket buttoned. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854684 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 19:10:51 +0000 Angie 854684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER to the power of KILLER</p> <p>Simple.

This is perfection! I prefer it unbuttoned to see more of that fab shirt! Super, super fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854652 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 18:30:38 +0000 Astrid 854652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE this! The soft colors, the midwash jeans. And of course the blazer looks like it's made to go over that shirt. Bootcuts and gold oxfords sounds awesome, but I really like it with your boots here too. This makes me wish for warmer temperatures and some sun. I can't wait for spring! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854647 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 18:28:47 +0000 catgirl 854647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is gorgeous - love how you can wear these lighter colors so well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854625 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 18:11:24 +0000 Nicole D 854625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that combo! You have inspired me - I have that blazer in hot pink with grey piping. I will wait til spring to wear it though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854621 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 18:10:06 +0000 pil 854621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So nice together Diana! The combination says that spring is around the corner. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854609 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 17:52:33 +0000 Diana 854609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, you have all convinced me. I just unbuttoned the jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854605 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 17:49:32 +0000 Tanya 854605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful pairing, the colors play so well together. I also prefer it unbuttoned. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854601 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 17:42:29 +0000 merwoman 854601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfection!! Beautiful colour tones together - you look fantastic.<br /> My vote is for open as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854600 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 17:41:47 +0000 Mona 854600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello, blazer twin! I like unbuttoned and the choice of this shirt and boots is just perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854592 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 17:33:58 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 854592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful. I prefer unbuttoned. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854580 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 17:24:28 +0000 Thistle 854580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this together! They were definately made for each other. I like the jacket better open, it creates a nice line, but both look good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854578 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 17:22:08 +0000 abc 854578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this pairing and I really like your boots too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854572 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 17:17:40 +0000 Diana 854572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Laura, I actually wanted to wear this with bootcuts and my gold oxfords, but it's still too slushy on the ground for draggy hems. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854568 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 17:15:41 +0000 Laura 854568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is gorgeous! I vote unbuttoned too, but both look gorgeous. I bet this would look stunning with preppy footwear. Hmmmm. Loafers? Pointy toed patent leather flats? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854566 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 17:12:01 +0000 JulieJohn 854566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>An excellent pairing - they were made for each other. You look so fresh. I prefer unbuttoned, but you can do no wrong in this ensemble. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-academy-and-liberty#post-854562 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 17:07:51 +0000 Diana 854562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know why it took me so long to pair my Academy blazer with my J Crew liberty shirt since they go so well together! Decided I needed something light on the bottom to bookend so went for my light taupe boots. </p> <p>Do you prefer the jacket buttoned or unbuttoned?</p> <p>Gap Academy blazer, J Crew Liberty perfect shirt, Vince jeans, Rieker Remonte Dorndorf boots. </p>
