I guess this is pretty much my signature look, although the scarf is not something I usually wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794548 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 19:21:18 +0000 Carole 794548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it!

I can't believe how you rock a denim jacket and dress combo. Truly flattering and sassy and infinitely versatile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794457 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 17:04:27 +0000 Ariadne 794457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You rock this formula! It's one of my favourites too. Which reminds me, I need to buy a new denim jacket in the spring. I love yours! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794415 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 15:39:39 +0000 Transcona Shannon 794415@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>HA HA HA Angie - posted at the same time! Thank you for your k-rating! </p> <p>Day Vies - I think the black tights and black boots would have been a bit heavy looking and I like how the grey picks up the grey that's also in the scarf. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794412 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 15:37:59 +0000 Transcona Shannon 794412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sona - you can be my therapist any time Thank you for your kind words.</p> <p>Lyn - I covered up the outfit with my red puffer coat and changed into my winter boots for heading outdoors. It is positively miserable here today.</p> <p>Sarah - would love to see your "copycat"!</p> <p>Suz - it's true I haven't worn a scarf in some time. I used to and then I got away from them, finding them a bit fussy. But today it just felt right.</p> <p>Sara - a friend of mine showed me this way to tie a scarf. It almost makes it like a necklace. Glad you like it!</p> <p>Thank you Tracey, Shevia, Anne, Claire, and Amiable! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794406 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 15:32:47 +0000 Day Vies 794406@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this combination. I also really like how you went gray with the tights and boots instead of black. It's fun yet sophisticated with lots of visual interest. Perfect! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794405 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 15:31:59 +0000 Angie 794405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER</p> <p>A signature look for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794384 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 15:05:04 +0000 Sara L. 794384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a black knit dress that I find very versatile also. I love this outfit and where, oh where, did you learn to tie a scarf like that?? It's great!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794373 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 14:55:33 +0000 Suz 794373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this formula; it is a favourite fall back for me, too! You look great, Shannon - I love the details. And it is a change to see you in a scarf! It works great with this combination. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794354 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 14:29:11 +0000 amiable 794354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was contemplating this formula this morning too, having just obtained my first knit dress. But I decided to dress for the weather in very warm clothes instead. Perhaps next week will see some dress weather :)</p> <p>Your version is perfect! I want more knit dresses! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794351 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 14:25:39 +0000 Sarah A 794351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the scarf tie and this formula... Ha! I am not dressed yet and looking for inspiration so I might go copy you now :)</p> <p>ETA: I have got on my "copycat" now... will try to get a pic later today. thanks for the inspiration! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794347 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 14:21:09 +0000 Anonymous 794347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This formula really appeals to me. It's simple, yet interesting. You make everything look so easy, but I know it took you time and effort to work it all out. I like the way you matched your tights to the boots here, so the horizontal line is at your knee. Very attractive! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794332 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 14:05:32 +0000 anne 794332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit Shannon, and thanks for letting us know how you have thought through each element! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794319 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 13:40:17 +0000 Jaime 794319@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your formula in both concept and execution Shannon! I do love those boots with the matching tights, and the dress with jacket with scarf looks just right! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794308 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 13:04:18 +0000 lyn67 794308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect Shannon! I esp. love the your choice of dark grey boots and opaques, wich matched so well with colour of your denim jacket, and the greys in the beautifully knotted scarf. Eye delightening outfit! And guess you topped it with a coat, isn't it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794303 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 12:58:07 +0000 Sona 794303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>with all the black ponte sheaths around at this time of the year, stores and stylists need to come take lessons from you on how it is done. I know you have written a few times recently how you are feeling less than fab about figure related issues but remember hon; size is just a number and seeing you in this outfit, bodycon yet not, dressy yet laidback with perfect accessorizing is what you should be focussing on: how you've got it going on...in fab style with true panache.</p> <p>(Sorry to sound a little like a therapist but you really are a style inspiration and you need to see/hear that more oten not just from others but from yourself!!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794300 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 12:55:41 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 794300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fab and the formula is working. </p> <p>I was thinking about what to wear today and you have just helped me decide. If I can find the dress, I have it made. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794296 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 12:35:26 +0000 TraceyLiz65 794296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely works and surely is a formula that is easily repeatable and you should do so.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-knit-dress-denim-jacket-formula#post-794292 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 12:32:37 +0000 Transcona Shannon 794292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is my favourite outfit formula of all time. It's easy, it's comfortable, it's cozy and it works for both my office and for casual wear. </p> <p>I started the outfit with my black ponte knit sheath dress. I then added a scarf that has black/grey/burgundy/gold in it for a bit of colour and a bit more of that "coziness factor". On top of that I added my cropped mid wash denim jacket. On my lower half I'm wearing dark grey tights and my grey Frye double-shaft boots. Jewelry is my grey &amp; silver bangle and my handbag is my faux croc patent black one.</p> <p>What do you think? Does it all work together? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome. </p> <p>Jacket: Brody Jeans (thrifted)<br /> Dress: Cleo Petite (thrifted)<br /> Tights: Hue<br /> Boots: Frye (eBay)<br /> Handbag: Danier Leather (thrifted)<br /> Bangle: thrifted </p>
