Houndstooth is one of my favorite patterns and black/white/red is one of my favorite color combos! And of course the matchy matchy belt/bag/lipstick. The cape coat is to die for too! Another Shannon grand slam!</p> <p>Una, thanks for thinking of me! I missed the original thread, but I totally would love a houndstooth sweater like this! Only it would probably be a midriff baring length on me right now, LOL! And think I tend to look better in V neck rather than crew neck sweaters, something about my neckline shape, I guess? I'm trying to think if I own any crew-neck sweaters...I think they're all V or cowl necks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-houndstooth-slouchy-oxfords#post-766975 Tue, 06 Nov 2012 06:42:07 +0000 Deborah 766975@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this outfit.

You look fantastic. You look very thin and long to me...... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-houndstooth-slouchy-oxfords#post-766312 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 19:24:03 +0000 Mochi 766312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That new houndstooth sweater is gonna be a workhorse for sure! It's both stylish and, may I add, a bit punky! (in a good way). You look so cute. Wow, you have a graceful, gazelle-like neck--I'm jealous. You can wear all those scarves that would stumpify my stubby neck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-houndstooth-slouchy-oxfords#post-766311 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 19:23:53 +0000 Ariadne 766311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my GOSH. I love this so much. You're hitting it out of the park these days, Shannon! You look about a billion times better than the Gap model in this sweater. Good thing I'm trying to SYC or I'd be ordering it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-houndstooth-slouchy-oxfords#post-766299 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 19:06:23 +0000 MsMary 766299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*plonk* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-houndstooth-slouchy-oxfords#post-766287 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 18:50:07 +0000 Carole 766287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is one fun outfit, Shannon!

I have it in a petite size as well and it's very soft and warm. </p> <p>The warm factor is why I wore it today rushing out the door with not much time to ponder multiple layers. Mine is more fitted because a looser crew neck on me is not that flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-houndstooth-slouchy-oxfords#post-766274 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 18:36:07 +0000 Transcona Shannon 766274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey there sweater triplets Zap and Day Vies!

Period. 766257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the outfit! I just want to take that picture and post it everywhere and say "Take that everyone who says that petites can't wear bold prints!"

I guess I took too long getting to the store, the sweater is sold out in NYC and online. The store was able to find me a return that had just come in! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-houndstooth-slouchy-oxfords#post-766210 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 17:44:46 +0000 rae 766210@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Black and white and red all over! So happy you now have access to the Gap petites line - looks like their measurements fit you to a T! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-houndstooth-slouchy-oxfords#post-766192 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 17:30:13 +0000 Suz 766192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's the sexy saddle-shoe look! </p> <p>The sweater is adorable on you, Shannon. And when Citygrl sees it, I predict she'll want to copy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-houndstooth-slouchy-oxfords#post-766188 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 17:28:28 +0000 Transcona Shannon 766188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Arrrrghhhh....my computer was NOT working this morning at home (some software glitch) so my photos I took at home wouldn't load. But sweet Kristin offered to quickly snap a couple of pics at work so I could still post my WIW (thank you Kristin!).</p> <p>My outfit started with my new Gap ivory/navy houndstooth sweater. It's beautifully soft, non itchy and just a wee bit oversized. This is my first item from Gap's petite line which is finally available in Canada and I couldn't be more pleased - sleeves that are the right length! I paired the sweater with my black slouchy trousers, red belt for a hit of colour and my black/white Sara oxfords. My handbag for today is my red quilted one for another infusion of red. Over top everything when I head out the door is my black cape coat.</p> <p>What do you think? Does this all work together? Proportions ok? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Sweater: Gap<br /> Trousers: Lord &amp; Taylor (altered)<br /> Belt: Danier Leather<br /> Shoes: Doc Martens<br /> Handbag: Nine West (thrifted)<br /> Coat: Club Monaco (thrifted) </p>
