I love the idea of pairing the sweater with lighter denim, or with off-white bottoms, as Sharan suggests, especially now that spring is here (or just around the corner!). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2318217 Fri, 14 Apr 2023 16:51:05 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2318217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this look a lot. And I had the initial impression that it is a quieter combination of colors than I am used to seeing in your WIWs. I think the sweater is beautiful on you, very complementary to your skin and hair. With the idea of a tonal look, I would try off-white jeans or pants, to brighten the look a little bit from the bottom up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2318151 Fri, 14 Apr 2023 05:13:47 +0000 Anonymous 2318151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You do look lovely. &nbsp;The sweater color is fab on you. &nbsp;What Janet said. &nbsp;Try the sweater with blue or black denim jeans for a bit more contrast. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317945 Thu, 13 Apr 2023 10:13:46 +0000 Bijou 2317945@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely. The sweater is not as warm as your usual colours, so I can see why it may take a bit of getting used to.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317733 Wed, 12 Apr 2023 04:28:29 +0000 Carla 2317733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was watching some YouTube videos on what people were wearing in London, England - and noticed the interesting combination of honey beige or camel and&nbsp;<i></i>Granny Smith apple green! &nbsp;It looked so cool! &nbsp;I believe&nbsp;<b>Angie&nbsp;</b>recently bought a dress with this colour combination. &nbsp;<i></i> </p> <p>PS: I’m looking for a beige sweater that matches my hair!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317684 Tue, 11 Apr 2023 22:29:25 +0000 Sal 2317684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great - and I like the suggestions re shine and contrast if you want to.&nbsp; I can also need a bit of "punch" when I wear camel or blush.&nbsp; I don't think you need it but you may prefer it.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317677 Tue, 11 Apr 2023 21:13:41 +0000 Style Fan 2317677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Rachy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317573 Tue, 11 Apr 2023 04:36:51 +0000 rachylou 2317573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sumptuous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317539 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 21:52:31 +0000 Style Fan 2317539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, everyone, for your feedback.&nbsp; I appreciate your wisdom.&nbsp; I did feel too 'faded' in the sweater, but now I have some ideas on how to fix that.&nbsp; I like the silhouette - chunky, boxy sweater with wide-legged pants - so I can work on the outfit with your feedback.<br />I usually have my eyebrows tinted, but they have faded, so I am making the appointment tomorrow.&nbsp; I will try to remember to wear earrings with the sweater.&nbsp; My gold hoops would be best.&nbsp; Sadly, I can only wear gold in my ears now.&nbsp; My silver earrings with the stones are out.&nbsp; :(<br />Lipstick would help too.&nbsp; But I would be wearing a mask at the hospital, so what was the point?<br />I will try to post a revised version later this week. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317412 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 12:22:35 +0000 LJP 2317412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz mentioned something I read somewhere recently and found effective : shine near the face ( even from a simple but shiny earring ) does wonders . Also something else I was thinking about ( and Suz also alluded to ) after I wrote my first reply : a slight darkening and defining of your eyebrows can create some contrast and structure so that tonal tops and sweaters look less blended-in . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317408 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 12:09:53 +0000 Tanya 2317408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit! The sweater looks perfect with your hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317400 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 11:48:41 +0000 Janet 2317400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that the sweater is very nice with your hair! The whole vibe is very tonal, which I think is quite consistent with your style. But I’d kind of like to see that sweater with blue denim for a bit more contrast, just to change it up a bit. But this is a totally fab silhouette on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317384 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 11:21:06 +0000 Brooklyn 2317384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really pretty SF! I like this colour combination on you. I wore a similar combination today. Mine is even lower in contrast, but I’m into that! Maybe a scarf or necklace would improve your feelings about it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317377 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 10:59:37 +0000 Minaminu 2317377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab jumper, it works really well with your hair!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317357 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 02:42:34 +0000 Suz 2317357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Some low contrast people look great <b>and </b>feel great in low contrast. Others <b>look</b> great, objectively,&nbsp; but feel "washed out' or "disappeared." Especially when the hair is grey. It's tricky!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317355 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 02:20:21 +0000 slim cat 2317355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like idea of more contrast or some jewelry with semi precious stones ( coral or my fav turquoise ). It's pretty all together - just a bit quiet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317352 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 02:02:43 +0000 Jenni NZ 2317352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I understand now what I didn’t before, about wanting more contrast. I wonder if that’s why I eventually donated (after 30 wears) a pretty grey scoop-neck merino top. I had thought it was because it had a slightly mauve tinge to the grey which may not have been my colour, but maybe it’s partly because it had that low contrast with my grey hair and my pale skin, which I hadn’t realised.<br /> Thanks for the thread Style Fan, and to Dee, LJP and Suz for noticing/explaining!<br /> I still think it looks pretty on you… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317348 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 01:41:38 +0000 Jaime 2317348@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the tonal top. Gives the quiet luxury look that I see a lot lately. But I do understand about liking high contrast - that is my preference too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317347 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 01:22:23 +0000 Suz 2317347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the sweater with your hair. It's beautifully tonal. And I think it must have been peppy with the orange jacket. But you may have been craving more colour near your face. At this time of year, I think we often do. A scarf might do that trick for that.&nbsp;</p> <p>I get a very similar effect if I wear a soft grey top or sweater. It is very harmonious but can feel a bit "soft" for me, personally. That is, it <b>suits </b>me just fine, and works with my generally lower contrast appearance - yet doesn't <b>feel</b> 100% right. </p> <p>Like you, my hair and skin and brows are fair and low contrast to each other. But, also like you, my eyes are darker (in my case, a slate blue.)&nbsp; So when I do wear a soft grey top, I typically include navy, or charcoal, or a brighter patterned scarf with colour, or a brighter or a blue topper -- or a silver necklace -- something to add that bit of contrast or sparkle/ shine.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317345 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 01:14:36 +0000 Bonnie 2317345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like everything about this outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317335 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 00:09:00 +0000 Style Fan 2317335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Lisa.&nbsp; I appreciate your feedback.&nbsp; I will try the sweater with my jeans and brown cords. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317332 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 00:05:04 +0000 Style Fan 2317332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, everyone, for the lovely feedback.&nbsp; Dee, that is what I am noticing.&nbsp; Usually, I wear more contrast.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />Barbara Diane, I will look through my jewellery to see if I have a necklace that would work.&nbsp; I like that idea.<br />Jenni, thank you.&nbsp; I appreciate your comments.<br />Roberta, thank you.&nbsp; The sweater is a good length with high-rise bottoms.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />Thanks, Angie.&nbsp; I am used to more contrast, but I will try this tonal look some more.<br />Thanks, Julie and Suntiger.</p> <p>It looks like the Aritizia sweater has been saved from the donation pile.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317331 Mon, 10 Apr 2023 00:00:57 +0000 LJP 2317331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I guess I see it a bit differently than the others . I like you in higher contrast looks , and find this combination a bit “ quiet “ . Indeed the orange coat would add some vibrancy , but I think a tonal or dark brown pant ( even navy ) or even a faux leather pant would be interesting here . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317325 Sun, 09 Apr 2023 23:35:47 +0000 Anonymous 2317325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the color works too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317323 Sun, 09 Apr 2023 23:31:27 +0000 Julie 2317323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this looks great!

Tonal :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317318 Sun, 09 Apr 2023 23:25:04 +0000 Dee 2317318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your sweater and cords fit you beautifully, and these colours harmonize perfectly but it sounds like you might be seeking a bit more contrast between your sweater and your hair as they are very similar. </p> <p>I would think adding your orange topper likely provided you with a bit more colour contrast. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317305 Sun, 09 Apr 2023 21:33:14 +0000 Roberta 2317305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it. The sweater is just the right length on you and perfectly suits the wideleg corduroys. I think the color brings out your eyes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-and-camel#post-2317303 Sun, 09 Apr 2023 21:14:27 +0000 Jenni NZ 2317303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks a lovely very “you” outfit. I feel the sweater is perfect with your hair! Especially in the close-up shot parts of your hair look exactly the same colour as it! </p>
