I've been going even funkier with my nail colors these last few manicures. Trying out different colors I don't usually use (or course, my "go-to" colors are pretty whacked out --usually gunmetal gray or orange or blue and occasionally red). So I've been experimenting with both light pale colors as well as zany brights.</p> <p>While I've been a fan of pedicures for a long time (my fussy feet enjoy the pampering) I only came round to manicures in the last few years, when they came out with those impossible to chip Gel manicures (it uses UV light to dry it instantly and doesn't chip at all). I go every two (and occasionally 3) weeks and have them done and even after that long, the polish hasn't chipped (and I'm hard on my hands. So I find this amazing). I highly recommend them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-froggie-sweater-gold-oxfords#post-1196737 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 21:49:12 +0000 Tanya 1196737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love everything about this outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-froggie-sweater-gold-oxfords#post-1196730 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 21:42:46 +0000 adorkable 1196730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your shoes and jewelry are great, but this doesn't surprise me very much. :)</p> <p>I absolutely love that you have a sweater that is simultaneously bad-ass and pastel. I wouldn't have said that bad-ass pastel was possible, but you have proved it to be so. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-froggie-sweater-gold-oxfords#post-1196563 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 19:16:36 +0000 unfrumped 1196563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the top color is very flattering for spring--blue-greens with red hair lights, perfect color wheel! Also the color lights you up and looks youthful, not just because of the frog! Oxford envy&nbsp; here, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-froggie-sweater-gold-oxfords#post-1196532 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 18:26:56 +0000 Neel 1196532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your outfit!!

I'm kind of with you on pastels (both on not liking them on me and on being afraid of spilling stuff), but I'd make an exception for that sweater too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-froggie-sweater-gold-oxfords#post-1196492 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 17:24:34 +0000 Dee 1196492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this casual look!

Right visual weight on the oxfords, a little slouch to the sweater but not too long or short... definitely just right! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-froggie-sweater-gold-oxfords#post-1196316 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 13:26:36 +0000 Diana 1196316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have those oxfords! (I also have them in grey.). I wear them<br /> Ike a nude shoe. I wore them so much that I had to re-do the gold finish - luckily there is a Tarrago cream in exactly that color.</p> <p>Your froggie sweater is excellent! And the crops are just right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-froggie-sweater-gold-oxfords#post-1196298 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 12:10:25 +0000 Andrea W 1196298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice outfit. Love the froggie! Just all round fab (esp with the metallic oxfords). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-froggie-sweater-gold-oxfords#post-1196296 Sun, 16 Mar 2014 11:57:15 +0000 leopardluxe 1196296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yesterday was another weekend day of running errands and then having a quick lunch out with my boyfriend. It was a little bit warmer out yesterday so I figured capri length jeans were do-able as long as I went with a closed toe shoe and something warmer up top. Rather than go my usual route of t-shirt with a moto jacket over it I decided I'd take the adorable J. Crew cashmere froggie sweater I picked up for $20 at last month's Santa Monica flea market&nbsp;for a spin.</p> <p>I don't usually wear pastels at all. For some reason when I wear them I always sort of feel like I'm dressing for Easter (or that I look like an easter egg. Weird, huh?) In general I rarely ever wear outfits that are head to toe light colors either (mostly because I'm a slob and am sure I'll spill something on them). But in my constant quest to always be pushing myself outside my comfort zone this sweater totally made the cut (largely because of said cute amphibian on its front. Had it been just plain pale blue I'd have walked right by it).</p> <p>Any-who, Mr. Froggie got paired with my AG Malden capris that hit at a length on me that should definitely make Angie a very happy camper ;-)</p> <p>I measured. They are exactly 6 inches above my ankle and hit just below the widest part of my calves --which are pretty skinny, so "wide" is definitely a relative term.</p> <p>I actually really like this length as long as the jeans or pants are very fitted on the calf, as is the case here. I view this length more like I would a casual&nbsp;&nbsp;short, though, than a length I'd go with for a more dressed up or&nbsp;non-beat up jeans look.</p> <p>And since comfort was a big factor in running around town I thought the subtle distressed gold finish of my Born oxfords would go well with the pastel froggie and distressed jeans. (these are the same oxfords I also have in distressed gray/black. I highly recommend them as they are seriously some of the most comfortable shoes I own and one of only a few pairs I can wear completely sock-less without my fussy feet getting all chafed about it.</p> <p>Nothing really unusual or remarkable or uber stylish about this outfit.&nbsp;I did find, however, that&nbsp;this combo really made me glad I pushed outside my comfort zone with pastels and bought the froggie sweater. </p> <p>It makes me happy when I put it on and it is the perfect weight of cashmere to keep me warm on those high 60's/low 70s days we have so many of round here.</p> <p>Cashmere frog sweater: J Crew (via flea market)<br />Distressed Jeans: Adriano Goldshmied Malden Capri (via ebay)<br />Distressed gold oxfords: Born (via ebay)<br />Nude leather bag: Michael Kors (via designer consignment)<br />Sunglasses: generic aviators (thrifted)<br />Gold Eye&nbsp;Earrings: Gabriella Kiss<br />Gold snake ring: Vintage (via ebay)<br />Golden &amp; faceted pale blue stone ring: Lia Sophia </p>
