So, I say I like the outfit as-is. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-664269 Mon, 09 Jul 2012 13:00:59 +0000 Lisa 664269@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this simple look. The blouse has a great drape to it. And I see some stud detailing on the shoes so this jazzes up the outfit for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663914 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 19:49:16 +0000 harmonica 663914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto Mary K! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663778 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 15:39:36 +0000 MsMary 663778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this. So very you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663751 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 14:41:59 +0000 Anonymous 663751@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Summer is all about simple, so bring it on! I love each of these pieces on you Una. And the grey IS very, very good on you. I love the low contrast it makes with the jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663664 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 07:25:28 +0000 CocoLion 663664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lucky you for owning THREE Equipment shirts. I have one from 1994 but I wore it so much it started to fall apart. For some reason I've struggled with throwing it away, I am a pack rat. I wore it all the time with low rise black ponte slim fit straight leg pants and a wide 60s inspired belt. This was the Tom Ford Gucci look back then, a fitted silk shirt with what were then considered low rise pants (but probably would go as mid rise now). I feel like Equipment disappeared for a while and now is back? Or did it never go away?</p> <p>But I digress, back to the originally planned programming ... </p> <p>I like the shirt together with that wash of skinnies. This silhouette is very flattering on you, and it has an easy casual cool vibe that suits you. However there is a detail at the bottom that I am wondering about. This is the matter of the pants and shoe break. I'm thinking socks with this length of pants. However, if you were to roll the pants, then a sockless look is better, with a loafer for example. Or, if you are wearing sandals, of course sockless is better. (Unless you are going for an East German tourist look.) Does that make sense? I know it's nit-picky. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663655 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 06:24:40 +0000 Scarlet 663655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is simple, but everything is just right. I really like it! Your skin is glowing too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663403 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 18:38:37 +0000 Ornella 663403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I could swear I had posted a comment here but cannot see it... anyway, Una YLF! One of your best looks yet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663391 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 18:24:16 +0000 catgirl 663391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, ladies.</p> <p>Lemonade, I appreciate the honesty. Grey is my favorite neutral - funny how colors can evoke such strong feelings!</p> <p>Rae, you've nailed exactly what I am looking for - pieces where the interest is built in, so I can wear less. I've discovered I'm not a complex layer-er... the fewer items the better. But I still want that edge and RATE factor incorporated, so it's got to be inherent in the item itself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663385 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 18:18:32 +0000 Midwest Girl 663385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nothing boring about this at all.

I think it does look a bit dull to my eye, but that is not because of a lack of accessories but a lack of color contrast. I have to admit though that I am not a fan of grey clothes on anyone, I actually like it even less than nude or beige lol, so that might be why I don't like it that much,</p> <p>Not boring at all though, this is my kind of outfit -except for the grey color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663151 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 09:26:11 +0000 Mona 663151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this silk blouse. simple yet chic. Not boring at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663121 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 07:26:08 +0000 jayne 663121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very strong and stylish.

This is exactly the formula I'm looking to wear (silk blouse + skinnies) when the hot summer is done. I think it looks great and I love the slate grey against your hair! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663048 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 03:21:31 +0000 christy 663048@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not at all boring - strong elements in a streamlined and focused overall look. I really love these equipment blouses on you. The grey is gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663045 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 03:13:48 +0000 Kiwichik 663045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with the others strong &amp; minimal - love the cuff. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663044 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 03:13:18 +0000 rae 663044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I seem to remember a thread somewhere along the way about how minimal outfits work best when they showcase awesome fit, fabrication, cut, and color. The interest is built into each piece, so it doesn't matter that there are less pieces (if that makes sense...). Definitely what I see happening here with the pretty silk, great shoes, and cool cuff. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663035 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 02:55:28 +0000 Lyn D. 663035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A lovely soft-looking shirt, and it looks great with the skinnies. I can't quite see the shoes, are they booties? Very nice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663033 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 02:50:36 +0000 Deborah 663033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not boring at all. I love this formula. It's simple, streamlined and comfortable? And it's versatile in you can dress it up or down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663030 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 02:44:50 +0000 Sveta 663030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would not call it boring - I would call it strong and minimal! I wore a similar outfit yesterday with denim clams and long silk turquoise tunic shirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dressed-down-uber-simple#post-663027 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 02:40:55 +0000 catgirl 663027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is my third Equipment shirt, in a deep slate grey. It seems a little smaller than my others. I wanted to dress it down so I wore it with Gap skinnies. Again, I love the simplicity but fear it being too boring. However, I'm liking the ease of this formula as a variation to the tunic/skinnies look. </p> <p>Feedback and suggestions welcome! </p>
