I love how thoughtful you are about the items in your wardrobe and how you see possibilities. This is a fabulous pattern mix, and so fun. It would be more casual but equally cute with your Cons.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-butterfly-stripes---the-look-for-less#post-940993 Fri, 24 May 2013 19:58:34 +0000 Beth Ann 940993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your version!&nbsp; Every bit as fab as the inspiration, I'd say.&nbsp; I think I might like the look even better with flats, which might be good news to your feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-butterfly-stripes---the-look-for-less#post-940984 Fri, 24 May 2013 19:51:11 +0000 Inge 940984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A lovely interpretation, Ingunn. I always love how you can make inspiration photos your own with pieces from your wardrobe and a good dose of creative thinking.</p> <p>By the way, I stumbled upon a tumblr blog a while back that I think you'll love too. It's all about the breton shirt:-)<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://la-mariniere.tumblr.com/">http://la-mariniere.tumblr.com/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-butterfly-stripes---the-look-for-less#post-940903 Fri, 24 May 2013 17:23:46 +0000 Kristin SF 940903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic interpretation! I think you look FAB and very spring/summery. Love those sandals, they are all kinds of awesome! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-butterfly-stripes---the-look-for-less#post-940896 Fri, 24 May 2013 17:06:31 +0000 kayt 940896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your interp BETTER. Your tuck has better placement and I think your overall silhouette is more flattering. You look more than terrific. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-butterfly-stripes---the-look-for-less#post-940848 Fri, 24 May 2013 15:54:43 +0000 rae 940848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So fun! Amazing that such a trendy outfit can be basically pulled from your existing closet. Fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-butterfly-stripes---the-look-for-less#post-940831 Fri, 24 May 2013 15:25:35 +0000 Anonymous 940831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think your outfit reflects YOU -- I think it is perfectly acceptable. I love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-butterfly-stripes---the-look-for-less#post-940830 Fri, 24 May 2013 15:23:57 +0000 Ingunn 940830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kristin posted a link to one of my other posts, showing a gorgeous silk/linen skirt from J Crew with butterflies on. It is paired with a striped tee (#1) I used it as inspiration for today's outfit (#2):&nbsp;</p> <p>I don't have a pencil, but I have an A-line with&nbsp;butterflies. I don't have silver pumps with pointy toes, but I have pewter strappy sandals. Both are thrifted recently. I have a striped tee, but with narrower stripes than the inspiration. The J Crew outfit&nbsp;&nbsp;probably&nbsp;costs around $600. My version is maybe not as fab, but then it only cost me $70 in total. Stripes are on trend, butterflies are on trend, and strappy sandals are on trend, too, perhaps in a little different version than mine, but they are classic, at least. I think J Crew is modern, but I'm more classic than modern today. (I did change for flats after a while. The sandals are really high heeled.)</p> <p>What do you think? Is it an acceptable copy? Your thoughts are most welcome.&nbsp;Thanks for looking! </p>
