Nice balance between structure and fluidity, and I like your patent booties and clutch. They add a touch of dressiness, as you suggest. The pendant is gorgeous with these black and olive pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-patent#post-1410063 Fri, 12 Dec 2014 22:20:55 +0000 Suz 1410063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh!

Wore a long one yesterday for the first time in awhile. &nbsp;Also love your lip colour - I'm hoping the Chubby Stick collection has a red I can try myself. &nbsp;Fab day today Shannon! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-patent#post-1409851 Fri, 12 Dec 2014 14:50:22 +0000 Sara L. 1409851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I love the red accents with the olive and black.&nbsp; Great look!&nbsp; The shiny patent is a nice contrast to the cargo pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-patent#post-1409832 Fri, 12 Dec 2014 14:22:06 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1409832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies :)</p> <p>You know, I really had no idea just how versatile olive cargo pants would be and in my world, they are all season pants. </p> <p>Shevia - I call this my blouse thingy because I really don't know what it is! It's like a blouse and a jacket had a baby.</p> <p>Jeanne - "festivize" - love it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-double-patent#post-1409821 Fri, 12 Dec 2014 14:06:33 +0000 Karie 1409821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those cargo jeans are fab.

These have been total workhorses for me (thanks for the cargo inspiration MsMary!). I paired the pants with my black asymmetrical blouse thingy (with black tank underneath).&nbsp;</p> <p>For footwear, I chose my patent Ara booties. I haven't worn these booties in some time as they bothered my PF but I have been absolutely diligent with my exercises and haven't had a flare up for a bit now. Plus I have my custom orthotics now and they fit in the booties quite nicely. I am taking my Chelsea boots as back ups just in case but hope I can wear the Ara's today.&nbsp;</p> <p>To bookend the patent and give the outfit a bit of less casual vibe, I then chose my black patent structured clutch for handbag. Love the shiny bookending.</p> <p>I'm starting to crave some of my necklaces again so today am wearing a beautiful dark red amber pendant hubby gave me several years ago. &nbsp;Red specs and a swipe of my new winter lipstick Clinique Cider Berry and I'm ready to go.</p> <p>What do you think? Does this all work together? I wish I had taken a side shot because I really like the hi-lo hemline of the blouse thingy and the snaps on the side of the ankles of the cargo pants against the patent booties. Oh well…</p> <p>Blouse and tank: Smart Set<br />Pants: Ricki's<br />Booties: Ara<br />Clutch: Danier Leather (thrifted)</p>
