Happy belated birthday from me too! Sorry we missed it on YLF. </p> <p>I like the way you fearlessly mixed purple boots with the turquoise Desigual dress. Fun and festive! A great way to celebrate you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-algo-purpleblue#post-986704 Sun, 21 Jul 2013 13:32:36 +0000 Anonymous 986704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy belated birthday! I really like this outfit and don't think it is too much going on! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-algo-purpleblue#post-986702 Sun, 21 Jul 2013 13:23:29 +0000 Suz 986702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Debra, ALGO is YLF-speak for "a lot going on." If you search "acronyms" in the archives you'll find some threads that explain some of these confusing terms.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sylvie - happy belated birthday! I have missed your posts and have been happy to see you back here lately, oh sister-in-Danier-crime.&nbsp;</p> <p>Onto your outfit! I do not think it is ALGO for your style in the least. In fact, it sort of epitomizes what I imagine you do best! The moody, rich colour, the interplay of pattern and texture, dresses and skirts, leather!&nbsp;</p> <p>For some reason this feels like a very "Vancouver" outfit to me -- Pacific NW, anyway. Very funky urbanite!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-algo-purpleblue#post-986671 Sun, 21 Jul 2013 10:48:38 +0000 Mona 986671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the combo of purple and blue here. You must have looked awesome in this outfit. Happy belated birthday! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-algo-purpleblue#post-986669 Sun, 21 Jul 2013 10:41:12 +0000 Debra 986669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure what ALGO stands for ??????<br /> I think that you look great, I really like the way you have layered the colour.<br /> Very cool and sort of unexpected </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-algo-purpleblue#post-986616 Sun, 21 Jul 2013 05:46:26 +0000 Lantana 986616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I admire Desigual and this is the first ime I have seen one of their pieces in real life.<br /> I don't think this is ALGO. I think the dress warrants bold supporting acts and that you have achieved that beautifully. The extra photos do help, thanks for that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-algo-purpleblue#post-986614 Sun, 21 Jul 2013 05:41:23 +0000 Sylvie 986614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do wear the clothes I own... really!&nbsp; Here's what I wore on my birthday about a month ago.&nbsp; The festivities were in the evenings so this was worn for visiting a museum, lunch and then dropping by a store.</p> <p>Blue Desigual dress<br />Black Danier Jacket<br />Purple crossbody bag<br />Light purple Hue tights<br />"Blurple" Frye boots<br />Silver hoop earrings + pendant<br />Wide black belt<br />Black second base cami for modesty</p> <p>(Added photos of individual items since the photo is so crappy)</p> <p>I find that my outfits are either "threw on whatever was handy so I could get out of the house fast" or "so much going on I wonder if it's too much"</p> <p>Where do you think this outfit stands on the ALGO scale?&nbsp; Feedback/suggestions for modifications welcome. </p>
