Not an easy task! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-grey-patterns#post-785092 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 11:50:58 +0000 Mochi 785092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went straight to the third pic and fell in love with the sumptuousness of all of it, so no wonder that as a whole outfit it is super dooper fabulosity! I'm really appreciating the streamlined looks and low-key colors of recent outfits here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-grey-patterns#post-785078 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 11:03:10 +0000 Anonymous 785078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, same trousers or try some of your others too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-grey-patterns#post-785076 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 11:01:27 +0000 Deborah 785076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Having trouble keeping up at the moment but so glad I didn't miss this:). This is exquisite! This silhouette is beautiful on you Shannon. The wide leg pant and the shape of that jacket, the broach and the shock of cobalt.

The rich turquoise with the herringbone blazer, glen plaid pants, and animal clutch is rich in texture and fun details.

Oh my goodness - how great to hear from you! </p> <p>Ceit - you always come up with the best suggestions for another outfit! So....same blazer, mustard blouse, blue booties - same trousers?</p> <p>Atlantia - you get the gold star today! It is NOT my usual colour of lipstick. I'm trying a new shade - a reddish/burgundy/maroon colour. Does this mean you like it?</p> <p>Thanks for your comments Day Vies, Caro, Sona, MaryK and Shevia! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-grey-patterns#post-784952 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 02:44:33 +0000 Jaime 784952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love how the shirt matches the clutch zipper, and something about the belt and brooch are just right to my eye. Another great one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-grey-patterns#post-784931 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 02:06:04 +0000 Atlantia 784931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love love love the cobalt trim in the clutch with the top.

I LOVE it! It works so well with the cobalt and the gray. The draping at the neck is also a really nice detail. Very, very cute as usual. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-grey-patterns#post-784652 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 17:43:14 +0000 Transcona Shannon 784652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Charmian - yep, indoor photography with fake light just doesn't show the subtleties, does it? Mind you, the hour at which I take my pic is still pitch dark outside so this is still a step up from the natural lighting available at that time - lol!</p> <p>I'm impressed with your eagle eyes ladies catching the cobalt zipper on the clutch matching the top....I was wondering if you'd notice that and of course, you didn't disappoint! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-grey-patterns#post-784647 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 17:35:03 +0000 Charmian 784647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Darn you, indoor photography! I would love to get a close up of the subtle pattern mixing going on here with the pants and the jacket -- my kind of pattern mixing!</p> <p>Everything fits so beautifully on you, and the thought you've put into the entire outfit really shows (you matched your clutch's zipper to the top?!?! *faints*). Great outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-grey-patterns#post-784549 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 15:31:58 +0000 Emily 784549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, you are so good at accessories! I am taking notes.<br /> The jacket and trousers look like a perfect fit, and I really like the look of the cowl neck under your the jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-grey-patterns#post-784544 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 15:24:31 +0000 amiable 784544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you hit it out of the ballpark! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-grey-patterns#post-784530 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 14:58:02 +0000 Suz 784530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look terrific, Shannon! Claire is right - it's the little details that make the difference, and once again, here is where a large wardrobe with many choices gives you a little boost in styling. To be able to match the stripe in the bag to the blouse that way makes the whole thing so much more cohesive. It's subtle, but it's classy! </p> <p>I really like this ladylike, slightly retro jacket. The blouse is a divine colour on you. And yay for the brooch and for having pants that fit. In a cold climate, we really do NEED trousers. So don't give up on them entirely. Not when you can look this good in them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-grey-patterns#post-784521 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 14:50:25 +0000 Anonymous 784521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMGoodnes, the way that cobalt top matches the zipper on your clutch is making me swoon! You need to keep that baby propped up on your desk all day. The cut and fit of that blazer is divine. I love the way the bottom edges curve outward. I'm glad you have a few pair of trousers that you feel really good in. The high heels make them hang so nicely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-grey-patterns#post-784518 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 14:46:41 +0000 Sara L. 784518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! I especially like the brooch. It's an unexpected accessory that really elevates the outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-grey-patterns#post-784468 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 13:05:25 +0000 Asingh 784468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like everything about the outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-grey-patterns#post-784461 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 12:34:05 +0000 Transcona Shannon 784461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is quite cold today so pulled out my grey Glen plaid wide legged trousers. I know I mused lately that I'm not a trouser gal but I do have a few pair that fit well and that I feel good in - these are one of those pairs.</p> <p>I decided to go with a grey patterned outfit today so added my charcoal grey herringbone patterned blazer with dark grey elbow patches. This was a thrift find last year that Wonder woman altered by taking in the bust dart and shortening the sleeves. For some colour, the layer under the jacket is a bright blue cowl neck tank. For a wee bit more colour, I've added my yellow/cobalt snakeskin print clutch - which also has some dark grey in its snakeskin print pattern. I've added a black leather belt and my vintage black/silver brooch for some more visual interest. For footwear, I've got on my trusty and comfortable Clarks heels.</p> <p>What do you think? Proportions and combination work to your eye? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Blazer: Gap (thrifted)<br /> Tank: Jessica (Sears brand)<br /> Trousers: Reitmans (thrifted)<br /> Belt: Danier Leather<br /> Clutch: Trouve<br /> Shoes: Clarks </p>
