With the yellow coat I felt a bit like a flower bed out of control. BUT I think I can play with the coral cardi and yellow coat by adding a black pencil instead - or at least something more "tailored" or structured in a way, so that I don't get the feeling of just flowting in all directions. Thanks for all the input - very useful for taking futher steps with the closet (almost) orphans :-)</p> <p>That's it for now... I have to repair DH1's bike - welcome to everyday chaos *sigh* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-coral-denim-questions#post-626050 Tue, 22 May 2012 17:38:38 +0000 Anonymous 626050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this Harmonica! The coral is so pretty with the denim and turquoise. I can't wait to read your NYC post and see all of your pictures! I hope you had a wonderful trip. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-coral-denim-questions#post-626013 Tue, 22 May 2012 16:57:01 +0000 christieanne 626013@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love you in vivid colors! Coral and turquoise is just one of my all time favorite classic combinations and that your jewelry has a bit of personal history makes it even better. With the yellow coat - incredibly good. </p> <p>Nice idea for using that great bag - it really amps things up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-coral-denim-questions#post-625896 Tue, 22 May 2012 14:10:58 +0000 Angie 625896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer #2 too. That's a fun maximal combination with the grounding of a true classic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-coral-denim-questions#post-625892 Tue, 22 May 2012 14:06:34 +0000 rute 625892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer 2! More tone down. On the last photo I think it's too much, coral + green + yellow, but that's just a matter of personal preference! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-coral-denim-questions#post-625886 Tue, 22 May 2012 14:02:26 +0000 Suz 625886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look wonderful in this colour! And it's amazing paired with that yellow coat. I also like the mix of textures. Gorgeous! Your bracelets are so rich and interesting as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-coral-denim-questions#post-625871 Tue, 22 May 2012 13:19:20 +0000 Transcona Shannon 625871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like others have commented, that coral colour is DIVINE on you Harmonica! And I really like the happy pairing of it with the yellow coat - so bright and cheerful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-coral-denim-questions#post-625869 Tue, 22 May 2012 13:07:23 +0000 Sara L. 625869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the coral sweater (which looks red on my computer monitor). Both the tan coat and the yellow coat look good. I think the yellow goes really well with the scarf that ties the different colors in your outfit together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-coral-denim-questions#post-625848 Tue, 22 May 2012 12:05:19 +0000 teeandcee 625848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore this outfit! I love all the different textures and patterns with the bracelet, the scarf, the little dangly things on the sweater, etc. You look wonderful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-coral-denim-questions#post-625830 Tue, 22 May 2012 11:31:00 +0000 harmonica 625830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deborah &amp; Kiwichik: So glad to read your positive responses to the color combo The bag, cardi and jewellery have all been in my wardrobe for many, many years, but it seems that they only now make friends. The bag was expensive and I have been saving it (for what I'm not sure), but decided to make it my everyday bag to work instead of a black gear-y backpack. Its perfect because I can get all my stuff, books, notebooks, lunch box, sunglasses etc in it and even have some extra room! And CPW is going down :-)</p> <p>The jewellery are from my childhood. I'm not sure where or whom I got it from. I think the eardrops are from my grandmother, the three-stone bracelet is from Greece (probably mid 1970's) and the turquoise flower bracelet might be from my mother (1970's I guess). </p> <p>I love combining such personal items with newer and sometimes more exclusive stuff Hmmm.. I actually think that could be part of my rubric </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-coral-denim-questions#post-625822 Tue, 22 May 2012 10:05:05 +0000 Kiwichik 625822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG if you don't already have a signature colour this is it. Love the coral with the jewellery -i 'm in accessory heaven. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-coral-denim-questions#post-625809 Tue, 22 May 2012 09:24:34 +0000 Deborah 625809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this a lot. The coral is beautiful on you and the cardigan is just so cute. The yellow coat and the patterned bag work so well. I can imagine this makes you happy cos it makes me happy just looking at it. This is a lovely colorful and arty combo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-coral-denim-questions#post-625795 Tue, 22 May 2012 08:06:05 +0000 harmonica 625795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Kirti! I love the bright coral and actually bought a cami in that colour too. It fulfills my longing for color You've actually been an inspiration with all your great color combinations </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-coral-denim-questions#post-625787 Tue, 22 May 2012 07:43:24 +0000 Kirti 625787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The bright coral really suits you! I also love the pairing with the yellow coat </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-coral-denim-questions#post-625780 Tue, 22 May 2012 07:26:41 +0000 harmonica 625780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I finally have some time to post again. The last month has been crammed with travels, work, everyday rush, illness, celebrations etc etc. I'll do a post on NYC travel / shopping / style insight when I get my head around. </p> <p>Anyway - the coral cardi is "old and new" - that is, I lend it to a friend a year or so ago and got it back the other day. I love the color and the knit but always struggled to find a way to wear it. Now I think this works... It is high up on the happy scale, at least :-)</p> <p>#1 Detail bracelets<br /> #2 Trench, green bag, cardi, denim skirt and scarf<br /> #3-4 With/-out scarf - not decided on shoes yet<br /> #5-6 Detail eardrop + knit + bracelets</p> <p>Question: I thought about wearing my yellow vintage coat, but hesitated and thought your comments would be helpful.
