And I love the idea of the top with the burgundy skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-its-a-wrap#post-821481 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 17:46:46 +0000 pil 821481@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking good all around! How are you so perky looking after being up with a sick baby? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-its-a-wrap#post-821449 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 17:13:20 +0000 Raisin 821449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Poor baby, I hope she feels better!</p> <p>I really like this wrap top. The color is nice and the v-neck looks great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-its-a-wrap#post-821447 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 17:12:40 +0000 missvee 821447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thistle, something easy to do when you're unsure of mixing colours is to look at paint chips that have the graduated colours from dark to light. You can really see how the different shades all complement each other. Or, just check out the colour wheel online to see how colours play well both across the wheel or adjacent to each other. One of our posters, Aida I think it was, did a whole series of outfits based on the colour wheel. They were really interesting. I haven't seen her post lately but maybe she will chime in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-its-a-wrap#post-821446 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 17:11:19 +0000 Anonymous 821446@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Heh you should have seen me yesterday - I wore bugundy skinnies, burgundy boots, and my tipped burgundy peacoat -- I met a friend for lunch, and he said "Wow, you look like a superhero or something!" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-its-a-wrap#post-821382 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 16:16:15 +0000 Angie 821382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*smile*</p> <p>Yes! Tones of the same colour work really well together. Very 2013. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-its-a-wrap#post-821377 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 16:13:12 +0000 Thistle 821377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hard not to smile as she is using the funriture to "walk" over to me to get picked up!</p> <p>This may be a dumb question, but can you mix shades of burdgundy or any other color? (I think the answer is yes, based on what was said above, but I had always thought the shades had to match if worn in the same outfit.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-its-a-wrap#post-821371 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 16:09:24 +0000 Angie 821371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you look this fresh and smiley after attending to a sick baby all night - you are truly remarkable! </p> <p>That pullover would look wonderful with the potentially new burgundy skirt. Add a scarf and boots, and you are set. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-its-a-wrap#post-821347 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 15:53:04 +0000 Thistle 821347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe on the pants it is the lighting. With my shoes, they are about a half inch above the floor. </p> <p>I need to go re-read Angie's post on pant lengths! I do think I suffer from buying too short of pants as I always worry about them dragging on the floor. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-its-a-wrap#post-821286 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 14:49:02 +0000 Transcona Shannon 821286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Poor sick baby - hope your household is on the mend.</p> <p>Like Kirti and Ceit have mentioned, I think the turquoise cami would have popped beautifully against the burgundy of your sweater, but this is fine as well. Like the grey trousers on you - fit is great. I do wonder if they are maybe a smidge too short though? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-its-a-wrap#post-821280 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 14:42:24 +0000 Anonymous 821280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are really finding your style, Thistle! Hope your daughter is feeling better. You look great!</p> <p>Is the top burgundy? I think it would look nice with turquoise! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-its-a-wrap#post-821279 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 14:37:57 +0000 Kirti 821279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great! And I think turquoise would go well with the colour of the top, but then again I'm a colour addict! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-its-a-wrap#post-821264 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 14:29:08 +0000 Thistle 821264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wearing my new “uniform” today! Posting WiWs definately keeps me accountable. After a sick baby last night, and knowing I would try to post this, I put on the uniform rather than my old standbys.</p> <p>Wrap top – Ralph Lauren<br /> Cami – Talbots<br /> Trousers – Chaus<br /> Oxfords – Rockport Walkability (they are very comfy!)<br /> Necklace – gift from Hubs</p> <p>I started out with a turquoise cami on, but when DH asked me if I was sure it matched, I changed! As always, any ways to improve welcome. Do the pants work okay both with the top and on me in general? </p>
