I never would have thought to pair them; but it works marvelously. This is one of many reasons I love YLF; I am learning so much.</p> <p>Bet you're thankful this week to have both feet back in shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-foxy-lanai#post-1097805 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 22:01:59 +0000 Angie 1097805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad to hear it.

I might even try it with a navy and black combo...your outfits are always inspiring </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-foxy-lanai#post-1097707 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 20:01:02 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1097707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the replies everyone :)</p> <p>I fully realize navy and black isn't to everyone's liking and the shade of blue can certainly make a difference as to whether or not it works for you.</p> <p>Ceit - me too! There's just something about this Lanai blazer...when I put it on the outfit feels "finished", you know? So glad I kept it.</p> <p>Angie - there's gonna be a lot of indulging coming up </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-foxy-lanai#post-1097654 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 19:23:34 +0000 AJ 1097654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This look so good, Shannon! I'm still shy about pairing solid navy and black. Funny, I don't feel the same way about brown and black. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-foxy-lanai#post-1097640 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 19:10:41 +0000 Anonymous 1097640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am glad you kept the Lanai -- your happiness is almost palpable.

It doesn't look like you were trying to match them. I've really come to like navy and black together so this looks great to my eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-foxy-lanai#post-1097340 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 14:48:11 +0000 gryffin 1097340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon - you are such a fox!!&nbsp; Love this outfit.&nbsp; Love the navy and black with the white t.&nbsp; I agree the pants are just perfect volume and length and it showcases you figure while not drawing away attention from your face.&nbsp; You just nail every outfit!!&nbsp; So envious (but in a good way!!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-foxy-lanai#post-1097337 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 14:45:54 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1097337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz - I know exactly what you mean in wanting the navy and black pairing to look "intentional". I did wonder if the white tee was going to throw that intention out the window but decided what the heck...and Mr. Shannon does quite like the foxy tee :)</p> <p>Shevia, Rute, Neel, Joy and La Belle - thanks for chiming in! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-foxy-lanai#post-1097308 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 14:19:56 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1097308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, you look like a rockstar!&nbsp; And this outfit really showcases your gorgeous figure </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-foxy-lanai#post-1097298 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 14:10:16 +0000 Suz 1097298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Navy with black is just great in my books!&nbsp;</p> <p>Sometimes I prefer it in a mostly dark or tonal black and blue&nbsp;outfit, though (i.e. without a lighter top) and I am not sure why. Is it because it can seem more intentional (so we are less likely to get comments like Mr. Shannon's) or because it is less noticeable (so we are less likely to get comments like Mr. Shannons's)? I honestly have no idea. But if you ask me, this is just fine and I am surprised Mr. Shannon wasn't all over the sexy fox look!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-foxy-lanai#post-1097265 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 13:07:40 +0000 Anonymous 1097265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Shevia said.

I spent last month (October) in a similar uniform!<br />Gorgeous </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-foxy-lanai#post-1097249 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 12:34:52 +0000 Jaime 1097249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love how the gold on the tee plays against the blue jacket and with the watch. Great fit on the trousers too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-foxy-lanai#post-1097247 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 12:23:49 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1097247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is the type of outfit I'm craving these days - simple trousers with a fluid top and a structured topper to rein it all in.&nbsp;</p> <p>I started today's outfit with my Jay Manuel dress trousers - they are a hybrid of bootcut and wide leg and IMHO just the right amount of volume for a short legged gal. I added my foxy tee with a "lazy full tuck" (my term for a full tuck and then pull a bit of the top back out to create a slight blouson effect) and my black leather belt. On top of that I'm wearing my navy Theory Lanai blazer. Love pairing navy and black - although poor hubby's comments this morning was "you know your jacket and pants don't match, right?"…sigh...For footwear I'm back to heels so am wearing my back patent booties. I chose my black handbag and jewelry is my rose gold/black watch and gold wedding band.</p> <p>So what do you think? Does this all work together? Does it bother you that the pants and jacket don't match? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Blazer: Theory<br />Tee: Olsen Europe<br />Trousers: Attitude by Jay Manuel<br />Belt and handbag: Danier Leather<br />Boots: Ara </p>
