While I don't like #3 as much as #1, I don't think it was a failure either. The wild card sweater is my hands-down favorite.

The artic vortex is no match for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex/page/2#post-1183880 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 03:50:09 +0000 Sveta 1183880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you , ladies!<br />Pat, I think this pale sweater would create quiet a different look without the black tipping. I fell in love with this particular detail enough to risk the final sale!<br />Isabel, you are so poetic (I cannot wait for those crocuses to appear; alas we have 3 feet of snow on the ground now so it is still a long way fro them).<br />Inge, I am glad you got to see those sweaters in action - after all you were their fairy godmother I will Tippis try with silk-y shirt but I am fine to wear them on their own.<br />Angie - thanks. I am so tired of this endless winter, this is my rebellion I guess.<br />Karen, I guess you mean the neutral outfit? I really like to swing from colors to neutrals to match my mood...<br />Makrame, that sounds really nice with burgundy blazer.<br />Gigi, I cannot believe that I was not sure if I should to keep that silver tote or is it too bright! I love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex/page/2#post-1183755 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 01:41:26 +0000 Gigi 1183755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, you look great in all of these! I envy your attention to detail, your polished look, and the excellent fit of your clothes. And I'm totally envying your metallic tote! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex/page/2#post-1183741 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 01:22:01 +0000 Makrame 1183741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great (in spite of the weather)!</p> <p>I am doing a copycat of your #1 today after reading your post in the morning, except that I did not have anything in yellow (I love your pairing yellow with white and grey) so I had to change the color scheme a bit (cream jeans, burgundy Gibson balzer, cream top). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183668 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 00:07:07 +0000 karymk 1183668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look as happy as a little spring lark in that yellow! Thank you thank you thank you Sveta for the color today. Can you guess the only outfit that I think is underwhelming on you? You look fab, as always and forever. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183629 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 23:20:12 +0000 Angie 1183629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chiming in quickly to say that I'm even <i>more</i> impressed with your killer&nbsp;style knowing that you dress like this in arctic temperatures. You are Sensational Sveta.&nbsp;</p> <p>And the wild card is my best. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183550 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 21:47:33 +0000 Inge 1183550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As I've already mentioned:-) I think this shade of yellow really works on you, Sveta, so glad you took a chance on this Tippi sweater! I really love how you've paired it with greys and white here. And I have a feeling it will become very versatile. Sorry to hear the white shirt frustrated you all day though. Perhaps someone has already suggested it, but have you tried it with a silk shirt instead of a stiff cotton one? If you button up the shirt all the way, you can achieve a similar look, I think. And of course the sweater will work splendidly with a lot of your jackets, so it's a win already.</p> <p>Also love the blush sweater with tipping detail on you. It's a different fit than the Tippi so I completely get that it was a bit of a gamble, but you won again. Fit is perfect and I love the graphic integrity of it. Hurrah for two perfect new additions to your wardrobe.</p> <p>And how you rock a tunic, wow. Both the red one and blue-black colour-blocked one are brilliant on you. Another excellent and super stylish week. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183472 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 20:09:26 +0000 LoriFLA 1183472@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All are so nice! The citron is totally working on you. I love the shoes in #1. I cannot pick a favorite-- all are so stylish and flatter your great figure beautifully. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183440 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 19:33:01 +0000 Isabel 1183440@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Geez Sveta, you look amazing !! &nbsp;I like the yellow and imagine it with the longer days even though it is freezing. &nbsp;Your are the crocus peering out into the longer lasting sunshine. &nbsp;( OMG, &nbsp;I had a lame Shakespeare moment ! &nbsp;)</p> <p>My favorites are 2,4,5, &nbsp;those are 10s to me. &nbsp;The other two are 9.5s. &nbsp;</p> <p>XXXXXXXXX </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183435 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 19:29:17 +0000 greenglove 1183435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ravishing in every picture- love the grey and yellow on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183364 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 18:03:38 +0000 Pat Chenell 1183364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Weighing in late, but I have to say that I too love #4. The black edge detail really grounds the sweater, sort of&nbsp;like what a&nbsp;single black accent piece does for a&nbsp;"beigy" room. The silver hardware on your belt and satchel are just enough bling to keep the look chic. Nice! I like #3 too, except for as you noted, the clingy sweater.... that would be very annoying and unflattering! </p> <p>And dastardly Polar Vortex be gone with you! I hope Mother Nature gets the memo about spring in time to sync with the calendar!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183356 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 17:56:28 +0000 Thistle 1183356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Despite the never ending winter, you look fantastic. I am really partial to the citron on you. The color both looks fab and is such a wonderful injection of spring on these cold days. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183346 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 17:39:41 +0000 Sveta 1183346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SarahTheWhite, Ceit, torontogirl&nbsp;- thank you!<br />Joy, rabbit, JamC, MRL, texstyle, Sara L - thanks for validation of my "wild" card. That was really a gamble for me and even on sale and with extra 40% off it was still $80+ sweater and a risk for a final sale. I was especially nervous because I tried to order another blush sweater form JCrew which looked a similar fit and it was awful on me. I am really happy this gamble was a success!<br />DV, grey and yellow (as well as grey and pink&nbsp;) are among my favorite color combinations. I really needed to add more pink and yellow items to my wardrobe becasue I did not have many of those.<br />Celia and Beth&nbsp; Ann, we need that spring, don't we? I am so tired of winter and ready for that bonfire!<br />Windchime, I am happy I kept the both bags and I really love this dove grey color. Actually I think it is flattering for my as well so I am on the lookout for clothing in this particular shade of grey now!<br />Amy, let's see those yellow jeans in action! :-)<br />Suz, you are right that this tipping is a good thing for us. It adds a restrained graphic impact which we appreciate so much, don't we? And both you and Lisa are right that now with my yellow and lilac Tippi sweaters my grey Gibson gets a new lease of life.<br />LL, JAileen, Catnip, AviaMariah - thank you for validating that this yellow works for me. Yellow is a tricky color for me to wear so I did not have any until last year. Now I ma slowly finding the flattering ones and ading them in because this color just makes me happy.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183328 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 17:03:29 +0000 Sara L. 1183328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like all these. &nbsp;I like the yellow and grey combo in #1 and #3. &nbsp;That soft yellow looks especially good with grey. &nbsp;I LOVE the new sweater in #4. &nbsp;It makes me want to check out J. Crew sales now. &nbsp;I can see how the sweater and the shirt are fighting in #3. &nbsp;Which is too bad because I like the combo otherwise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183327 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 17:01:40 +0000 AviaMariah 1183327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love 1 &amp; 4. &nbsp;Total on line shopping win! &nbsp;You wear that yellow shade so well. &nbsp;I know what you mean about wearing the shirt under the sweater. &nbsp;Drives me nuts too. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183323 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 16:58:15 +0000 celia 1183323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are fighting the polar vortex brilliantly.All fabulous outfits.<br />I hadn't seen the other post but I like your rendition of&nbsp;<b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2014/02/21/ensemble-boxy-shirt-under-a-boxy-sweater/">Angie's boxy shirt under boxy sweater ensemble</a>&nbsp;</b>, I guess it all comes down to how comfortable you feel in it.<br />Although it is not one of your usual colours I think # 3 works very well and I love the way the colour of the bag complements the pants.<br />My favourite of the week might be #1, you managed to bring spring to us.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183305 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 16:32:22 +0000 Catnip 1183305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, these are all great.&nbsp; I'm struggling to chose a winner, and cannot decide between 1, 4 and 5.&nbsp; You look&nbsp;terrific in yellow, and the wild card has so much style!</p> <p>As always, you look wonderful!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183279 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 15:59:30 +0000 Lisa 1183279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great yellow color, how fun that the gamble paid off.&nbsp; And it's nice to see the Gibson blazer in action.&nbsp; It works really well both with the yellow color and the grey in the booties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183272 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 15:41:05 +0000 JAileen 1183272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in all of them.

I especially love outfit&nbsp;#2 with the graphic red tunic. Very mod/bold (perfect for counteracting the cold &amp;&nbsp;gloomy weather!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183175 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 13:24:42 +0000 amiable 1183175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow -- Love them all - that yellow sweater is such a winner, and makes me want to don my yellow jeans this morning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183172 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 13:15:37 +0000 Suz 1183172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh! Your wild card is the sister to my new J. Crew super oversized sweater! I, too, am in love with that tipping detail -- it is the kind of pattern that suits our style very, very well.&nbsp;And I think it is absolutely stunning on you. Love it!!! That is my favourite outfit of the entire week. But you look sensational in all of these.</p> <p>It looks like the yellow sweater is helping that Gibson jacket to get more wear. You have been doing much better with that jacket this year in terms of wear than last year, I think?&nbsp;<br />&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-angies-posts-constrained-by-the-the-arctic-vortex#post-1183161 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 12:49:34 +0000 Windchime 1183161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love how your new yellow sweater combines with and warms up the grey blazer and pants. At least you can LOOK like spring! The geometric figures on your second JCrew sweater suit your style well. Aren't you glad you bought the dove grey bag? It integrates so beautifully into your wardrobe! </p>
