It's like the striped VC black and white tee from last year. Does anybody know why??? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724759 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 23:30:09 +0000 catgirl 724759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, this is awesome. I love it without the jacket especially . You look skinny in horizontal stripes - explain to me the secret, please! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724737 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 23:12:30 +0000 annagybe 724737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nicely done! I'm a sucker for stripes. I wonder if I should include more detail shots in my WIW's. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724735 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 23:08:56 +0000 rachylou 724735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Boy you are on a roll!

Yours is my idea of the perfect amount of pop while still blendy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724608 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 20:31:45 +0000 Transcona Shannon 724608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Rae, Julie, MTB, Elly, Ingunn and Jen! I appreciate your lovely comments.</p> <p>Elly - the blouse's style is a bit boxy and voluminous which is why you may think it's a bit big under the arms. But it does fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724583 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 20:02:39 +0000 jen 724583@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another one of my favourites you look so slim in this outfit, very flattering </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724580 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 19:54:22 +0000 Ingunn 724580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, more black and blue! The combination is awesome, Shannon, you look amazing! I really love the hints of yellow, they add that little extra. I want that bag... Wonderful, well thought out and executed! I liked Suz' description of your lines! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724574 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 19:49:06 +0000 Elly 724574@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the look, I love the clutch--- is it just me or does the nude fabric on this top kind of stick outwards sometimes? Is it a little too big under the arms? IDK why, but it bugs me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724344 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 16:16:46 +0000 morethanbeige 724344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also love the combo of blue and black and thanks for showing a great example. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724323 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 15:55:16 +0000 JulieJohn 724323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, you look lovely. I just want to take a moment to highlight how much I love your "final photo" that you've been doing. It's the one that shows all the accessories close up, and sometimes a cat as well. It helps me understand the outfit more - I guess I'm a touchy-feely person and this is the closest I can get to touching all the items for their tactile interest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724306 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 15:29:01 +0000 rae 724306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, you are unstoppable! LOVE blue with black, and this outfit is certainly no exception. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724229 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 14:08:32 +0000 Transcona Shannon 724229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>missvee - yes, this is from the Jay Manuel line at Sears. I have two other tops and one dress from his line and they are all fab - well constructed, wash and dry fabulously and are workhorses in my wardrobe. Plus if you go when they have their sale, extremely well priced. This top was only $19!</p> <p>Sona - I've decided to add a close up pic with my WIW posts of accessories so that people can see the details which don't always show up in photos.</p> <p>MNsara - that's so sweet that you thought of me when you saw the clutch! Isn't it pretty?</p> <p>Joy - I bought these Clarks two years ago as my "practical" shoes and they are so comfortable. I always grab these when I have a lot of walking to do. </p> <p>Thank you Shevia, ramya, Claudia, Suz, BethAnn, RedM, and Deborah! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724222 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 13:56:46 +0000 Anonymous 724222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This outfit has so much going on in a quiet way. I can see why you love black and blue. You have renewed my hunger for something cobalt. Those Clark's look like stylish workhorses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724215 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 13:47:44 +0000 Deborah 724215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This gets an A+ in my books for figure flattery. The top is devine, those colors are wonderful. The whole outfit works so well and I LOVE the clutch with this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724208 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 13:42:31 +0000 RedM 724208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're always so put together but fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724206 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 13:39:53 +0000 Beth Ann 724206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is one of my favorite color combinations, as well. I avoided it for a decade or so, thinking it was too "1990," but I'm so happy to see it back in such a strong, modern way!</p> <p>This outfit has great polish and ease - great for a busy, physical day at work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724193 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 13:20:49 +0000 MNsara 724193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such a chic outfit - that top is especially slimming - due to the sidepanels? - and the bold colors are very flattering on you! I'd keep this one handy for a FFBO outfit. . .</p> <p>P.S. I have seen your clutch recently at Nordstrom Rack and SO cute IRL too. It made me smile to think 'that's Shannon's!' </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724181 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 13:11:52 +0000 Suz 724181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay. Here is PROOF POSITIVE that horizontal stripes do NOT necessarily make a person look shorter or wide. You look like a long drink of deep, still water in that, Shannon! It's a gorgeous look for you! </p> <p>I adore this colour combo, too. I admit I am having a tough time thinking of giving up that black VC top for fit issues when I love it so much with the cobalt skirt.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724169 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 12:26:28 +0000 Sona 724169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>well done! I love the complete look very much! Thanks for lso showing us all the wonderful individual items that went into ' le complet' </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724163 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 12:07:01 +0000 missvee 724163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That top is amazing! Is that the line that Sears carries? You have the best luck with your shopping! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-blue-black-with-a-hint-of-yellow#post-724162 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 12:02:38 +0000 Claudia 724162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very sharp combo. Shannon, you look quite long and lean in this outfit. </p>
