And if you are invited out to cocktails, just de-blazerize and you are ready. Loving that new term and wil be integrating into my wardrobe vocabulary! </p> <p>Very fun and stunning outfit - really making items versatile and looking oh so fantastic in the execution. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639414 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 18:36:28 +0000 AJ 639414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lace, stripes, and brights are such a FAB combination here, TS!!

That color is magic on you.

Love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639349 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 17:49:59 +0000 Transcona Shannon 639349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so pleased you all think the striped knit jacket works with the dress! With a more casual topper this dress can see more wear which makes me happy because it's one of my favourite pieces!</p> <p>Wow Angie - thank you so much. You're making me blush...</p> <p>Natalie - what if you popped a denim jacket and more casual sandals on with your black lace dress? That might work to bring down the dressiness factor. </p> <p>Celia - you're so sweet!</p> <p>Zapotee - I think you just coined a new fashion phrase..."blazerize"! Love it.</p> <p>Thanks Jonesy, Jeanne, Ginny, Nancylee and Kiwi!</p> <p>Rae - lol "if this outfit were a celeb"....I'm starting to really love and appreciate items that can transition into different seasons. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639331 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 17:39:03 +0000 Kiwichik 639331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfectly pretty.

I never would have considered pairing a lace dress with a striped blazer, but it really works. And that green purse just sets the outfit on fire. </p> <p>You are such a bold experimenter....and it pays off!<br /> (note to self to experiment more.....:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639312 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 17:30:16 +0000 Ginny 639312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>great dress, love it !!!! so glad those awesome shoes are comfy for a whole day. The stripes is the perfect addition!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639223 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 16:05:43 +0000 rae 639223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beyond love! If this outfit were a celeb, I'd be the crazy stalker following it about and sending it desperate letters. The striped jacket and pop of green make the dress feel so springy, yet I also know it works great in the cooler months. Pretty amazing feat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639214 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 16:01:28 +0000 Jjsloane 639214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning. I'm with Angie on wanting that dress! I love how you styled it - hope those shoes go the distance for you today. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639212 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 15:59:33 +0000 Jonesy 639212@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Immaculate! Very inspiring combination! Just gorgeous on you, and the new pumps are the icing on the cake. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639098 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 14:33:35 +0000 Angie 639098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I WANT THAT DRESS.</p> <p>*fanning myself*</p> <p>Need to recover from your sizzling fabness... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639093 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 14:28:57 +0000 Anonymous 639093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I blazer-ize by dressier dresses too... Awesome combination. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639059 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 13:58:05 +0000 celia 639059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is official, I am green wit envy with how great you look everyday!<br /> The dress, the jacket( and you were wondering about this one), everything looks so good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639054 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 13:52:47 +0000 goldenpig 639054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What an inspired combination! Love the lace dress and of course the cobalt pumps. #1/2 looks great for an evening out, but I love how everything pulls together in #3! The jacket and bag do dress it down just enough for work. Now you have me wondering if I can somehow make my B44 black lace dress work appropriate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639049 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 13:32:09 +0000 Transcona Shannon 639049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Sona, Deborah, Meredith, Alicat, Shevia, Manidipa, Suz, and Rita!</p> <p>Deborah/Meredith - this dress is pretty "dressy" for work but pairing it with a more casual topper (this striped knit jacket, denim jacket, etc.) can bring it down enough for work wear. I'm glad you think I got it right! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639039 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 13:22:24 +0000 modgrl 639039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great final version! I love the pumps and dress alone but the light blazer and bright bag really bring this outfit into spring perfectly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639032 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 13:12:28 +0000 Suz 639032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fresh and beautiful. My goodness your workmates are lucky folks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639030 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 13:09:56 +0000 ManidipaM 639030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ohmygoodness awesomeness! LOVE, love, love this, Shannon! Very clever pattern mixing indeed *and* great tonal dressing too. I think this is one of your best ever! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-639023 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 12:56:56 +0000 Jaime 639023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that dress on you! With the shoes, it is perfect. I also think it looks great with the jacket. The bag is great but sort of distracting me from dress and shoes, both of which I love. Did I mention that? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-638992 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 12:30:32 +0000 Anonymous 638992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my goodness, I love this look on you!

What a smart way to wear that very dressy dress! I want a striped jacket or cardi so badly! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-638969 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 12:02:58 +0000 Deborah 638969@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous dress amd I love that you wear it to work:). Tnis is a clever pairing of pieces Shannon. I would never think to wear the striped jacket with a lace dress but it looks beautiful. The shoes look pretty good too. #3 is just stunning with everything working so well together. Bet you feel fab today. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lace-stripes-and-patent-leather#post-638967 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 11:44:18 +0000 Sona 638967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>TS: I'm loving the outfit as shown in #3 paired with the jacket and bag. No jewelry needed , the accessories 'shine'! </p>
