Thank you! This outfit has some serious mixed reactions .... I am inspired to make an outfit around my other pair of happy socks now </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1172361 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 11:17:51 +0000 gryffin 1172361@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Neel - I totally love this!!&nbsp; This outfit is so much fun but in a refined stylish way.&nbsp; Total fashion blogger - how did she make that look great moment. The socks are great with the pants and I love the change of pattern and tone with the top.&nbsp; I really like the socks peeking out of and over the booties, very cute.&nbsp; I think this is a slam dunk!!&nbsp; You look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1172351 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 10:32:37 +0000 Ornella 1172351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very, very playful and fun. I have a massive smile looking at the photo.&nbsp;I like these&nbsp;grey and yellow a lot, the tones of each colour in your outfit are a&nbsp;perfect juxtaposition showcasing how beautifully yellow brightens typically dull and lifeless colour. See why I love colours so much?</p> <p>This outfit&nbsp;has a bit more masculine vibe, probably coming from the style of&nbsp;shoes, yet it's unmistakably lady's outfit and a fresh styling on you personally. I am sure&nbsp;it's a comfy MOTG outfit too and formula I'd be happy to see recreated. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1172327 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 08:31:46 +0000 Neel 1172327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Inge, Suz, Liz A and JAileen for your comments! Lots of food for thought in this outfit post :).</p> <p>Inge and Suz - I think the polka dots make me feel happy too! And the socks are from a brand called 'Happy Socks'. Teehee! Happy socks indeed! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1172296 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 06:04:36 +0000 JAileen 1172296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this. It's kind of a ladylike take on in an your face look! And of course I love stripes and polka dots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171809 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 20:40:16 +0000 Liz A. 1171809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your thought process but I don't think this is quite right. I'm in the navy loafer camp and without the socks . Then you'd have a home run ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171795 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 20:10:48 +0000 Suz 1171795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those socks!!!!! &nbsp; I am so taken with those I can't see straight.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171787 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 20:02:38 +0000 Inge 1171787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also think the combination of polka dots (the yellow dots echo the yellow pants, which are super)&nbsp;and stripes is super sweet. I also like the idea of cut-out oxfords, but like Shevia would have preferred the navy ones because those would have tied in with the top. Fantastic job trying something new, and bonus points for feeling happy in your outfit, it makes me smile too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171731 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 19:05:22 +0000 Neel 1171731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awww thank you girls!! You all are very sweet and encouraging </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171717 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 18:52:06 +0000 annagybe 1171717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh wow! So I personally don't like mixing warm colors with cool, but that's just my personal bias. I do like the cut outs on the oxfords. Hooray for exposed socks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171713 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 18:47:51 +0000 Thistle 1171713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do like this a lot. And I love the fact that you tried somethign new. I would like the shoes better in yellow, but not too many of us have yellow shoes lounging around, so I thinkt he brown compromise works. </p> <p>This would look spectacular with those yellow loafers Angie had in another post!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171711 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 18:42:43 +0000 AviaMariah 1171711@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171694 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 18:22:16 +0000 MsMary 1171694@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, you totally pulled it off!&nbsp; I love this from head to polka-dot toe! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171371 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 13:50:10 +0000 Neel 1171371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>True Ramya!! But I also see where everyone is coming from So I am already planning how to wear the next pair of socks better ... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171364 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 13:44:20 +0000 ramya 1171364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Neel, I firmly believe there is no right or wrong.What I like needn't be what you like.&nbsp; You know I hate bodycon on me. But so many of you wear it with flare. <br />Ceit didn't like brown with this.Whereas I loved brown. And I have only worn it with brown. Check my WIW if you want. So if it feels right it is right.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171363 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 13:41:28 +0000 Neel 1171363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you ladies for your suggestions!! I was actually prancing happily in this outfit all over the mall. Lol. I don't know why I like it. May be because I tried something new :D</p> <p>Oh well better luck to me next time </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171336 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 12:51:16 +0000 Anonymous 1171336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I would like this with different shoes, the brown doesn't work. Good for you for trying something new! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171328 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 12:46:29 +0000 Jaime 1171328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the yellow jeans and the blue top together. I kind of love the idea of the socks but it looks a bit jarring with the brown shoes. I would love to see it with the navy shoes but not if it is going to squeeze your feet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171320 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 12:37:45 +0000 carolbee 1171320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto what ramya said,but love the combination of the top, belt and pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171256 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 10:35:36 +0000 leopardluxe 1171256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the combination of the stripes with the polka dots and yellow jeans on you. It looks very fresh and spring-like.&nbsp;I think I agree with you about maybe having the jeans shortened. The rolled cuff doesn't&nbsp;look *too* bulky but I think &nbsp;if it had a bit less bulk the overall look&nbsp;might appear a bit more polished (and I can really&nbsp;relate about having to have the jeans shortened to get the right effect. I have to do this with the vast majority of my bottoms.)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171253 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 10:27:35 +0000 Riss 1171253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the bright color!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171238 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 09:05:44 +0000 ramya 1171238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey we are yellow pant twins!!! Personally I am not a fan of visible socks. If I remove that from the equation. I love this outfit to pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-inspired-by-anna-and-maryk#post-1171234 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 08:41:15 +0000 Neel 1171234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My today's outfit is inspired by Anna's <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-217-midi-skirt-with-socks">socks and midi post</a> and MaryK's <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-213-part-2-and-psa-re-target-shoes-and-bags">yellow pants</a> post!  This is also a nod to Angie's "Try Something New" post which got me thinking about these socks in the first place!  I have never owned a socks after school o_O  So it was a pretty daunting task to try them!  </p> <p>My entire outfit started around these happy polka dot socks!  I combined my yellow moto jeans with my navy top with strass detail.  I actually intended to wear my navy blue heeled oxfords with these.  But I realized they were way too snug with the socks on .... So had to change to my brown cut out oxfords.  To bookend the shoes, I added my brown belt and my animal print shoulder bag.  I also semi tucked my top to add some structure.  I rolled the jeans a few times in order to show a bit of the socks.  I am not very happy with the roll because it felt a bit bulky.  I might get the jeans shortened before the next wear.  What do you think?</p> <p>Yellow pants and polka dots ... hmm .... sounds like a clown!  LOL!  Do you think I pulled it off?  All suggestions are welcome!!  Thanks for stopping by! </p>
