I see what you mean about #1, although I do like the pieces individually. I would try with different shoes and see if that works better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-2#post-1920342 Fri, 18 May 2018 11:26:06 +0000 Liesbeth 1920342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for your nice words.<br /> Katarina: the pants don’t feel too long for me, but maybe the lenght and width just doesn’t work well with these shoes.<br /> Tina: yes, you are spot on. I will just stop trying to make these pants work with these shoes.<br /> Shevia: good question! At work my goal is to look less soft, more like I mean business - while still having fun with fashion of course and without resorting to high maintenance shirts or suits or ‘strong’ colors that don’t suit me :). The general softness of the first look would feel better suited to ‘weekend me’ and then I would swap out the shoes for trendy white sneakers! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-2#post-1920289 Fri, 18 May 2018 05:46:59 +0000 Tina 1920289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 3/4 as well! The cardi in 1 is such a nice shade. Re: the shoes, could it be that your eye is reacting to the darker colour in an otherwise lighter outfit? The shoes themselves do not look clunky. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-2#post-1920274 Fri, 18 May 2018 03:31:38 +0000 Jaime 1920274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the last one especially. The first outfit has lots of potential too. I am not sure what your style goals are - you could go softer or stricter depending on your hair and other details. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-2#post-1920225 Thu, 17 May 2018 22:14:05 +0000 The Cat 1920225@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favourite is #1. The colour and shape of the jacket add interest to the outfit. I like the pants as well as the shoes. Both items look very nice on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-2#post-1920203 Thu, 17 May 2018 19:57:43 +0000 Katerina 1920203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love the colours in no 1. The cardi is beautiful on you. It is a great outfit. Since you mention that the trousers do not feel structured enough - could it be that they are a tiny bit too long to these shoes? Maybe they would fall better if they would be a bit shorter. However, I am not any expert on perfect lenghts, so I might be wrong. I like these shoes, they do not look clunky to my eye.</p> <p>No 3-4 is fabulous. Love especially the jeans on you and the shoes. The outfit is chic and it suits you so well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-2#post-1920200 Thu, 17 May 2018 19:41:55 +0000 Liesbeth 1920200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1 and 2 are the same outfit with and without topper. Ditto for 3 and 4. This week I needed options at work with unpredictable weather. I’m pleased with the color combo of the first outfit, but these pants and shoes (which are comfy, and I loved them when I got them only months ago) keep disappointing me in actual outfits. The pants look unstructured even though they’re pleated and the shoes skew too clunky.<br /> I was very happy with 3 and 4, even if some of the individual pieces aren’t favorites. The overall look feels masculine and playful at once while the jeans (are supposed to) fit snugly on my hips bringing femininity to the table too. I would love to continue into this direction stylewise.<br /> Thoughts, opinions, suggestions? Thanks for looking! </p>
