Thank you :)<br /><br />Rachy - thanks for your lovely comment about my blog and outfits. I find posting a WIW every day (at least during the week) keeps me wanting to dress well.<br /><br />Peri - I have no idea if Suko is Canadian or not. The jeans are sold in our Winner's stores (TJ Maxx in the US) so you could check out there if that's where you are.<br /><br />Rae - interesting point about "denim day" sounding less casual. Never thought about that. We actually have to pay $2 each Friday for the privilege of wearing jeans. Denim Day is a fund raiser at our office for charity. It's actually a pretty cool idea.<br /><br />Nicole - you just made my day! I've only lost about 8 pounds but the fitness program I'm on is starting to make some difference in the shape of my body and I've gone down one size so far. More to go, but slow and steady wins the race :)<br /><br />Denise - my husband LOVES these jeans. They may be his favourite. Always makes a comment that the rear view is particularly pleasing in these jeans - lol! Thanks for the additional styling tips. Will give those a try.<br /><br />Thanks Lyn! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924768 Sat, 04 May 2013 09:41:55 +0000 Lyn D. 924768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like this Shannon, and the dark wash of the denim gives them more of a tailored pant feel than of jeans.<br />I can see why the topper is a favourite- the colours look FAB on you! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924760 Sat, 04 May 2013 08:20:29 +0000 CocoLion 924760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Whatever you do, DON'T get rid of those jeans because they look amazing on you! &nbsp;Have you tried them with a more oversized top, something with an open neckline? &nbsp;Or maybe sheer? &nbsp;That would be another way to style boot cuts in a 2013 way. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924744 Sat, 04 May 2013 06:20:44 +0000 Kiwichik 924744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well it has all been said before but no arm in doing it again - the boots, belt &amp; clutch make this look very now and the jeans and carigan are great classic pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924544 Fri, 03 May 2013 23:28:48 +0000 Nicole D 924544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ LOVE the cardi. &nbsp;Those colours are so nice. &nbsp;How much weight have you lost, sweetie? &nbsp;You just look really healthy and fit (more than ever)! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924541 Fri, 03 May 2013 23:25:50 +0000 rae 924541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great look! And btw, I love the idea of having denim day instead of a "casual day." I think subliminally, the word casual encourages too much dressing down. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924436 Fri, 03 May 2013 20:52:01 +0000 Suz 924436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look very stylish indeed. It's the touches of white and the clutch that do it! Amazing how the details make the difference. The jeans are super-flattering on you!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924434 Fri, 03 May 2013 20:45:50 +0000 Anonymous 924434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look wonderfully stylish with the modern touches. I always get compliments when wearing boot cuts but don't think I'd buy them new. Then I'd have to designate a heel height and have them shortened. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924422 Fri, 03 May 2013 20:29:34 +0000 Peri 924422@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love love love. This is how I dress, but much nicer than how I dress...if that makes any sense. Told you I want your style!</p> <p>Never heard of that jeans brand. Is that Canadian? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924371 Fri, 03 May 2013 19:23:05 +0000 rachylou 924371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This is a great, easy going look. I love the dark top and light shoes. Mixes things up.<br /><br />Was looking at your blog, Shannon; it's nice to see your whole string of outfits. You're going strong and keeping it up. I like that!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924239 Fri, 03 May 2013 15:57:20 +0000 Sara L. 924239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like the bootcuts on you.&nbsp; You look&nbsp;modern with the lighter boots and belt. &nbsp;I don't wear mine as much because I don't seem to have the right shoes anymore.&nbsp; Especially now that's it's warming up and I packed away most of my boots. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924235 Fri, 03 May 2013 15:54:05 +0000 deb 924235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great outfit! Love the cardigan. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924232 Fri, 03 May 2013 15:51:43 +0000 Angie 924232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think you look plenty modern and fabulous! You added that modern injection with the footwear, belt and bag :)&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924203 Fri, 03 May 2013 15:13:25 +0000 texstyle 924203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think the outfit looks nice and is modern as it is, though I agree some straight leg jeans may be nice. I&nbsp;don't wear my bootcuts much either right now. Straight or slim legs seem to be a preference these days. I really like the patterned cardi and am so glad you also gave me the idea of wearing cardis as sweaters a while back as I've "rescued" a couple of closet cardi orphans. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924175 Fri, 03 May 2013 14:39:39 +0000 kellygirl 924175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Bootcuts look amazing on you. I think the citron bag, white watch&nbsp;and the patterned boots keep this looking very modern, Shannon. I'd wear this proudly. You look terrific! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924157 Fri, 03 May 2013 14:25:48 +0000 Transcona Shannon 924157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks for the feedback about the jeans all - I agree that bootcuts are never really "out" and I'm not a huge fan of skinnies on myself. When I look at the pictures, these jeans actually do fit well and look fine. I won't purge them, maybe just add a straight leg to the jeans I have. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924077 Fri, 03 May 2013 12:40:15 +0000 pil 924077@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Shannon, I love this.&nbsp; The patttern of the sweater is so nice with the boots and the white belt peeking out.&nbsp;Those jeans are terribly flattering, I hope you are only thinking of <i>adding </i>a new silhouette of jean and not retiring these. Then again, I'm totally behind the fashion curve here as I still wear my bootcuts.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924068 Fri, 03 May 2013 12:33:37 +0000 Jaime 924068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The white belt totally adds the current to the classic style jeans. Bootcuts are probably due for a comeback so you are ahead of the curve! Love how you wear the sweater too! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924060 Fri, 03 May 2013 12:27:07 +0000 Jules 924060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Moving away from bootcuts myself but these look great because of the way you have styled them and because they are PPL and very flattering. Your style is advanced enough to incorporate classic elements seamlessly! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924054 Fri, 03 May 2013 12:21:01 +0000 Thistle 924054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think the silhoutte is lovely and flattering.&nbsp; Bootcuts never really go out of style, but they are not as "everywhere" as skinnies and even straight legs.<br /><br />Still, these fit well and look fab.&nbsp; I would keep them and enjoy them&nbsp; :)&nbsp; I may be a bit biased ont his as I hated my long and painful jeans search! But honestly, finding jeans that fit and flatter is HARD. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924049 Fri, 03 May 2013 12:17:38 +0000 lyn67 924049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I have the same problem with my bootcuts! I really do preffer my skinnies nowadays-or no jeans at all! I am always late to a trend, and i can remember how reluctant I was after years of bootcuts and straightcuts&nbsp;with buying&nbsp;&nbsp;skinnies for myself, but my eyes adjusted to them&nbsp;eventually, and now I really don't like to put on my bootcuts. I think, it's about&nbsp;&nbsp;current shoe styles, too.&nbsp; But YLF no matter what are your jeans style! Love the cardi, and the purse, too:-) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924043 Fri, 03 May 2013 12:12:19 +0000 Anonymous 924043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I always love seeing this sweater I think the jeans look fine, but it might just be you are tired of them!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924035 Fri, 03 May 2013 11:50:00 +0000 lucyt90 924035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Nice put together look, I love the <a href="http://www.spartoo.co.uk/Boots-st-10622-10124.php" rel="nofollow">boots</a> that complete the outfit.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924034 Fri, 03 May 2013 11:39:39 +0000 Anonymous 924034@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You do wear bootcuts well Shannon. The flowy blouse and semi tuck&nbsp; bring it all bang up to date and the light colours in your accesories are lovely. I now wish my new white belt would hurry up and arrive, grrr..! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924033 Fri, 03 May 2013 11:39:12 +0000 Ingunn 924033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Shannon, you look modern and lovely today as always. The colors are magnificent. I also really like the bootcut silhouette on you, and I wouldn't be surprised to see it more often from now on - people must get tired of skinnies any day now. One of my colleagues, the most trendy I have, wore hers yesterday, and I thought: "Yes!". But if you are unhappy with them, you could always&nbsp;consider having the legs altered to straights. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924029 Fri, 03 May 2013 11:32:01 +0000 Deborah 924029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Good morning! &nbsp;Shannon I think this looks very modern. &nbsp;I tend to feel the same way about my bootcuts BUT I really like this look &nbsp;AND i think bootcuts are extremely flattering on you. Love the pop of yello &nbsp;and the booties and belt are perfect here. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bootcuts-touches-of-white#post-924027 Fri, 03 May 2013 11:28:10 +0000 Transcona Shannon 924027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ For Denim Day today (our version of Casual Friday) I popped on a pair of jeans I haven't worn for quite a while. Although a good fit and I think flattering, they don't feel very modern to me because of the leg line. I really think I need a new pair of blue jeans.<br /><br />Anyway, I've paired these bootcuts with a dark purple tank, semi tucked, and added on top of that an old but much loved cardigan, that has an abstract pattern in dark purple, black, lilac, white and yellow. I've added a wide white leather belt, python booties and watch&nbsp;for touches of white to lighten the outfit and my citron leather clutch to pull out the yellow in the cardigan and provide further spring touches.<br /><br />What do you think? Does it work? Do I need a different silhouette of dark jeans? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.<br /><br />Cardigan: Peter Nygard<br />Tank: Gap<br />Jeans: Suko<br />Boots: Sam Edelman<br />Clutch: Gap
