I find the style of the top a touch dated <b>BUT</b> I am not sure that is relevant because 1. it's very flattering on you and 2. this style is still in our stores and being worn IRL.</p> <p>Black and blue is a very nice combo on you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-and-blue-5#post-1267884 Tue, 03 Jun 2014 03:33:26 +0000 Jaime 1267884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They both look terrific. I always love faded blue and black! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-and-blue-5#post-1267618 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 23:18:16 +0000 amiable 1267618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's a brightened photo. &nbsp;I think I'll just have to wear the top again and take a well lit picture - it's got ruching and a surplice neckline - none of that shows really well in my early morning pic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-and-blue-5#post-1267588 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 23:01:27 +0000 Angie 1267588@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first look works. Good job, Amy.&nbsp;</p> <p>I can't see the second top well enough to identify the dots. *sad face*.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-and-blue-5#post-1267570 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 22:51:53 +0000 Jeanie 1267570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those jeans are gorgeous on you! &nbsp;I like Beth Ann's suggestion of pairing some jewelry with outfit #1. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-and-blue-5#post-1267564 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 22:46:15 +0000 rachylou 1267564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 brought me in from The Wall, but I must say - you look very fetching in #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-and-blue-5#post-1267486 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 21:06:12 +0000 Thistle 1267486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love outfit #1!&nbsp; I feel like this is quintessential 2014.</p> <p>I can't really see the detail on #2, so hard for me to comment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-and-blue-5#post-1267300 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 15:49:22 +0000 Beth Ann 1267300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent job finding flared jeans in a fluid fit!&nbsp; I think the first outfit is gorgeously simple.&nbsp; I could see a strong and simple cuff bracelet of some sort on your wrist.&nbsp; I could also see a vest layered over the tunic for a cooler day.</p> <p>As for #2 -- it's hard to see the detail on the top, but I love the color combo.&nbsp; Have you tried it with a simple summer skirt?&nbsp; I have a plain black knit skirt, with a drawstring waist no less, that I got at Kohl's last year.&nbsp; I think the shorter length of the top would be a natural mix with a casual skirt.&nbsp; Both the capris and top are in cuts/silhouettes that have been around awhile.&nbsp; Now, you look terrific as is, but it might work best to pair the capris with more fluid fits and pair the top with a more tailored crop pant with a cuff or a wide leg linen trouser.&nbsp; I find I get more wear out of things in my closet when I pair them with an updated piece.&nbsp; Conversely, I think using older items with new can keep me from looking like a fashion victim and make my dollars go farther. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-and-blue-5#post-1267294 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 15:33:11 +0000 Anonymous 1267294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the first outfit. Those jeans are great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-and-blue-5#post-1267285 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 15:06:30 +0000 Neel 1267285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first outfit is perfect! I love faded jeans and black too. </p> <p>The second outfit is perfect and comfy for running errands. The top might not be *current* but I think it would be a good layering piece. I have a few such tops too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-and-blue-5#post-1267265 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 14:28:18 +0000 amiable 1267265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today I have a chance I've been waiting for - a cool enough day to try out Aida's black and faded combo. &nbsp;I think I&nbsp;like it. &nbsp;What do you think?</p> <p>Yesterday I wore (for the first time) a blue with black polka dots Vince top that I GoodWilled a while back. &nbsp;I'm not sure that it's really 'me', nor that it's really current. &nbsp;What do you think? &nbsp;It was fun to wear regardless, and I like the way it fits.</p> <p>All comments are welcome - I especially like suggestions for improvements!</p>
