It is... perfect. So lovely and eye pleasing in every way. This tone of fushia makes your skin sing. The jeans are so perfectly well cut. Classic, grown up, sexy. Booties are fun yet discreet, like a surprise to be discovered, like a distant echo to the cardi. And the cardi... wow! Times ten. IT was genius to keep it dark underneath. Its shape and length are just the right fit for you. </p> <p>Clutch is the cherry on top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785897 Sat, 01 Dec 2012 05:22:25 +0000 Transcona Shannon 785897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>JR - interesting you mention that because I was thinking also that this works a little better. I think part of it is because this cardigan is worn open (there are no closures) and that creates a longer line on me. And yes, it's absolutely ok to mention that :)</p> <p>Donna - I bought this cardigan last year and I have posted it here but only once I think. I kind of got away from cardigans for a bit but am feeling the love for them again so pulled it out. I have worn these jeans before but not for a while. They are my favourite pair actually and do they do fit well. Thank you!</p> <p>Thanks Kiwi, Lisa and K! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785639 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 21:58:55 +0000 DonnaF 785639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have we seen that cardi on you in the past? What about the jeans? The jeans are a super flattering cut and fit on you; at first I thought they were trousers. They drape PERFECTLY. Dunno how you do it.every.time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785606 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 21:19:42 +0000 K. Period. 785606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glorious! Others' eyes may all be on the neon, but I'm smittened with your fuchsia blazer and your gorgeous clutch. The whole outfit is amazing, Shannon! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785554 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 20:43:17 +0000 Lisa 785554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, this color is lovely on you. And that bright coat *swoon* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785462 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 18:47:59 +0000 JR 785462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Am I allowed to say that I like this combination better than your Nygard jacket outfit from yesterday? The proportions just seem to work better all round. And I love the citron jacket in this iteration. All in all, a wonderful outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785425 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 18:06:54 +0000 Kiwichik 785425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Citron puffer - heaven. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785278 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 16:00:49 +0000 Transcona Shannon 785278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Copy away Ceit - I'm totally in love with this puffer and know you will be too! I'm trying to convince Suz she needs the fuchsia version!</p> <p>Kelly - thanks for the lovely compliment regarding my casual outfits. I definitely am more comfortable with my work style but am slowly learning about casual dressing thanks to you fab ladies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785268 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 15:50:05 +0000 Anonymous 785268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok - I am usually on the edge of a small or medium, but I would probably do the same and get the medium as I would want to layer too. It just appeared on the Bay website today I hope you don't mind if I copy you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785262 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 15:45:37 +0000 Transcona Shannon 785262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ceit - I sized up one size on the puffer because I wanted to be able to layer a thick sweater or blazer comfortably underneath, but technically I would say it is TTS. </p> <p>I love that it's convertible as a vest - here's a pic of me wearing it that way for reference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785257 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 15:38:29 +0000 Anonymous 785257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, how is the sizing on it? I see it on the Bay site and I forgot you said the sleeves zip off but this would be perfect for me too -- love the colour. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785253 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 15:31:36 +0000 kellygirl 785253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love seeing your casual side. Great outfit. I thought business dressing was your forte but I see you do casual just as well! Looking awesome, Shannon! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785252 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 15:30:52 +0000 Transcona Shannon 785252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*chuckles*</p> <p>I knew you'd focus on the puffer - lol! I bought this at The Bay about a month ago (Esprit brand). I love it because of the colour of course but also there's a hood that zips on and off and the sleeves zip on and off as well so you can wear it as a vest. Plus it's warm and comfy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785251 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 15:30:21 +0000 Anonymous 785251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the puffer. I am in the market for a fun puffer now too. I have decided having only two coats is silly in our climate and I have gone crazy now with more. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785247 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 15:23:41 +0000 Angie 785247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm okay. </p> <p>LOVE THE NEON PUFFER!!

Angie's influence I must admit - and I love it!</p> <p>Caro - thanks!</p> <p>Suz - these booties were the first Angie recommended item I purchased after joining YLF and they are so comfortable. Aerosoles still carries them BTW....hint hint...</p> <p>Missvee - thanks for the comment about the jeans shape in particular. I'm finding more and more that I'm reaching for this silhouette.</p> <p>RunnerChick - it didn't start out being jewel toned themed but once I had the cardigan and tank on I kind of went "hey...that's kind of cool, let's go with it" and I really like how it turned out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785173 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 14:11:51 +0000 RunnerChick 785173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What's not to love? You look fab! I really like how the jewel tones provide continuity through the outfit. So ingenious of you for thinking of that! And the puffer - oh my goodness, I'm dying here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785145 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 13:47:57 +0000 missvee 785145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These jeans are a great shape for you - the whole outfit is super flattering. I think you are right about needing the necklace to finish things off. It adds a little unexpected texture and shine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785140 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 13:41:52 +0000 Suz 785140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous, Shannon! I love the surprise of fuchsia under citron...it's like you've got summer stored up on your body! And the blue booties kick it up another notch. </p> <p>Sigh. Clearly I need more footwear options.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785137 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 13:39:45 +0000 Caro in Oz 785137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. Wow. Wow. I think that is triple wow. Purple. Fuschia. Citron </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785101 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 12:26:56 +0000 Jaime 785101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - the citron puffer! You make even puffers look super stylish. The purple and fuschia are gorgeous on you of course! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cardigan-for-fuchsia-friday#post-785099 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 12:23:21 +0000 Transcona Shannon 785099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Although this sweater is more of a berry shade, I figured it would still work for Fuchsia Friday. I've popped it on over a dark purple tank, then added my dark wash, straight legged jeans since it is Casual Friday at work. For footwear, I decided to keep up the jewel tone look and wear my blue suede booties. And for jewelry today, I pulled out one of my favourite necklaces. I haven't worn my necklaces for a while but I'm starting to feel itchy to wear them again. Handbag today is my grey snakeskin clutch.</p> <p>And of course when I head out the door, I've added my citron short puffer and my snakeskin gloves.</p> <p>What do you think? good Casual Friday look? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Cardigan: Nygard<br /> Tank: Gap<br /> Jeans: Reitmans<br /> Boots: Aerosole<br /> Handbag: thrifted<br /> Puffer: Esprit<br /> Necklace: Lia Sophia </p>
