This is dynamite, Diana!</p> <p>I know you knit that gorgeous shell yourself, you amazing person. It has a beautiful pattern, thanks for the close-up. And I love how you have incorporated it here. The tipping on the blazer pulls the whole thing together. Beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-the-spirit-if-not-the-letter-of-todays-blog-post#post-1148548 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 17:03:38 +0000 kellygirl 1148548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So cute, Diana. You have such a great sense of style. Love the mix of preppy and arty! You look so modern! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-the-spirit-if-not-the-letter-of-todays-blog-post#post-1148546 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 17:00:42 +0000 Diana 1148546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't actually own any pastels (except for some PJs and loungewear) but I wanted to take inspiration from today's blog post anyway.&nbsp; Since Angie said it was all about <i>lightening up and softening your look</i>, I figured I could substitute something light but clear for the milky pastels.&nbsp; I decided to go with some sour brights.&nbsp; The handknit lace shell is usually a summer piece, but keeping to my renewed love for sweater vests I decided to layer it over a silk blouse like a vest.&nbsp; The blouse also lightens the green up more, making it sort of a pseudo-pastel (lighter in color but clear, not powdery).&nbsp; The light grey jacket with citron trim also adds some more lightness to the outfit.&nbsp; On the bottom, I have chosen shades of grey (charcoal jeggings and gunmetal patent boots), as the only pair of light colored pants I own are faded blue cropped BFs that are not winter-appropriate.&nbsp; Similarly, it is too cold today for my lighter toned footwear (taupe midcalf boots or gold oxfords).&nbsp; </p> <p>I am also not a super classic dresser, but I think the blazer and blouse are a pretty classic combo.&nbsp; The handknit lace and patent booties keep it arty though!</p> <p></p> <p>Gap academy blazer, handknit lace shell, Joe Fresh silk blouse, CoH jeggings, Naot boots. </p>
