I am wearing fewer necklaces overall and let my earrings do the work of drawing the eye up mostly, but this time it felt incomplete. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-day-5-cc-fringe-flowers-and-butterflies#post-2003567 Sun, 17 Feb 2019 21:03:07 +0000 Gigi 2003567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The fringe is great! Fringe can be so much fun.&nbsp;</p> <p>I like the addition of the butterfly necklace. I think it helps draw the eye up, since the neckline is very open. I like to fill in gaps like that with necklaces too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-day-5-cc-fringe-flowers-and-butterflies#post-2003520 Sun, 17 Feb 2019 16:35:52 +0000 Anonymous 2003520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a beautiful tunic! How about fuchia or burgundy pants with it? I know you said you haven't worn bright pants, but the top would still be the statement piece </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-day-5-cc-fringe-flowers-and-butterflies#post-2003515 Sun, 17 Feb 2019 16:28:36 +0000 Angie 2003515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Jenni,</b> the fringe would be harder to see with black crops, but still look gorgeously<i> textured </i>and move and you stride.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-day-5-cc-fringe-flowers-and-butterflies#post-2003493 Sun, 17 Feb 2019 14:06:49 +0000 Bijou 2003493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jenni, there is nothing wrong with your formula. You always good great and create interesting outfits, so I don't think you need to be on a quest to get more interesting bottom halves. I don't have any bright trousers either and have never thought that I needed them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-day-5-cc-fringe-flowers-and-butterflies#post-2003492 Sun, 17 Feb 2019 13:53:40 +0000 ChristelJ 2003492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful top on you.

Looks great on you and the sandals are very pretty.<br /> I think the buttons on the trousers compete a little bit with the fringe, so maybe a simpler pair?<br /> As for the idea of black trousers, I think it would be very nice. The fringe would not be as visible as against light colours, but the texture would still be there. It would be more subtle, but why not as another option to wear the tunic?<br /> Re colourful trousers - I believe it is all in the cut and the fit, rather than colour. Solid colourful trousers can be simple in cut and style and if they fit perfectly, very flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-day-5-cc-fringe-flowers-and-butterflies#post-2003468 Sun, 17 Feb 2019 09:41:54 +0000 Jenni NZ 2003468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Unfortunately not. My only coloured pants are the olive. Otherwise black, navy, white, pewter, charcoal or dark denim. I have not worn coloured pants for years, as self-conscious about weight gain and fat bottom/thighs/waist. The weight gain has been there for over 10 years now though, since 2007 I think, so kind of vacillating about trying some more interesting bottoms again but not sure. I also don't want the bottoms to compete with the shoes so the modus operandi for a long time has been interesting top half, boring bottom half except for shoes. Again interested in other's views on this dilemma, particularly other apples. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-day-5-cc-fringe-flowers-and-butterflies#post-2003458 Sun, 17 Feb 2019 06:59:49 +0000 Bijou 2003458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jenni, a great outfit to finish the challenge in. I think wearing black crops would be great. Whilst I agree that the fringe of the tunic will not stand out as much as it does against the white, I do think it will still have quite an impact. Do you have cobalt pants or crops? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-day-5-cc-fringe-flowers-and-butterflies#post-2003451 Sun, 17 Feb 2019 04:12:52 +0000 rachylou 2003451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great top! I like the silver shoes with it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-day-5-cc-fringe-flowers-and-butterflies#post-2003403 Sat, 16 Feb 2019 23:41:45 +0000 Jenni NZ 2003403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie. I actually really liked it with the long olive snakeskin pants a different time. I wonder if the buttons on these white crops compete with the fringe a bit. But if I wore black bottoms, might not the fringe be hard to see? And it is meant to be a feature? Would be interested in your or anyone's thoughts on that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-day-5-cc-fringe-flowers-and-butterflies#post-2003389 Sat, 16 Feb 2019 23:10:39 +0000 Angie 2003389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super cute fringed tunic, <b>Jenni</b>. Good silhouette. Would be fabulous with your <i>black</i> crops or ankle pants - which I know you couldn't wear for the challenge! &nbsp;Next time </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-day-5-cc-fringe-flowers-and-butterflies#post-2003371 Sat, 16 Feb 2019 22:36:44 +0000 Bonnie 2003371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fun, colorful tunic. No wonder you got compliments.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-day-5-cc-fringe-flowers-and-butterflies#post-2003341 Sat, 16 Feb 2019 20:17:37 +0000 Jenni NZ 2003341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all the last day drew quite a few compliments at work on my fringed tunic. Originally bought for Art Deco weekend 5 years ago. I thought the neckline was a bit open, on reflection, so added a butterfly necklace as I had already chosen the butterfly earrings which show green or pink in various lights. The green sandals came out to play again.<br /> Fringed tunic 2014 19th wear<br /> White cropped pants 2017 47th wear. These are showing the wears a bit now, boo.<br /> Green sandals 2016 51st wear<br /> Butterfly earrings cast-off from DD1<br /> Butterfly necklace mystery provenance- no idea. Left behind by a DD?<br /> Thank you Carla for the challenge. To run errands on Saturday I happily went back to black pants! </p>
