I will have to try that sometime myself! I love the DIY stripe bag--so cool! Can't wait to meet you--only 2 days! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lime-and-turquoise-waist-leg-surrender-diy-striped-bag#post-667245 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 01:21:48 +0000 Victoria 667245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this is great color combo, love the turq and lime together(I may steal this;)).<br /> And booties are fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lime-and-turquoise-waist-leg-surrender-diy-striped-bag#post-667243 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 01:18:44 +0000 Aida 667243@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a wonderful color combo! I am going to file this away to try with my chartreuse blouse and emerald skinnies I think the proportions are great here, and the waist surrender works wonderfully. If your dress was longer then the proportions may get wonkier, but with the just-above-the-knee height everything looks great. The nude boots help here too, I didn't know you ended up with a pair of the Marks! Styled very non-boho and perfectly Rae here, nicely done </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lime-and-turquoise-waist-leg-surrender-diy-striped-bag#post-666919 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 18:07:52 +0000 Heather 666919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the color pairing! Summer breeze! </p> <p>Those booties were made for you, Rae! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lime-and-turquoise-waist-leg-surrender-diy-striped-bag#post-666912 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 18:01:52 +0000 jayne 666912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh you know I am going to love these colors. You really did that well! The proportions are perfect. Also loved the jacket on pinterest but so expensive... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lime-and-turquoise-waist-leg-surrender-diy-striped-bag#post-666899 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 17:46:58 +0000 rae 666899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the boosts - really helping to get through the day. I stayed home on Tuesday, but I'm feeling a bit better. Just have to rest, rest, rest until the weekend!</p> <p>I think I am liking the waist surrender today. My legs don't feel as stubby as I thought - Manidipa, I didn't even think about the fact that I have nude booties on. I guess I am dressing to lengthen the legs after all. Love the "mojito on the rocks" image! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lime-and-turquoise-waist-leg-surrender-diy-striped-bag#post-666787 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 15:36:33 +0000 Carole 666787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You had me at LIME and TURQUOISE! I love that color combo! The proportions work well and I love your bag, you clever gal! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lime-and-turquoise-waist-leg-surrender-diy-striped-bag#post-666783 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 15:34:19 +0000 Transcona Shannon 666783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae - I swear you are the only person who could wear a slouchy sweater OVER a dress and still make it all look summery! Love this colour combo on you and really like the silhouette. </p> <p>Please get better soon! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lime-and-turquoise-waist-leg-surrender-diy-striped-bag#post-666782 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 15:32:58 +0000 Diana 666782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, I LOVE this color combo. I know the slouchy, waist surrendering top is a bit out of your comfort zone, but honestly I think this style is fantastic on you.</p> <p>Hope you feel better soon! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lime-and-turquoise-waist-leg-surrender-diy-striped-bag#post-666763 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 15:07:53 +0000 ManidipaM 666763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you not been well, Rae? Seems I missed that Feel better soon!</p> <p>And there is no chopping here, apart from the banded bag strap. I love this outfit: tonal + colour blocking and a nice, long leg line from the 'nude' booties. I love the cozy neckline and strong shoulder of this sweater too. And the 'mojito on the rocks' colours completely prevent seasonal confusion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lime-and-turquoise-waist-leg-surrender-diy-striped-bag#post-666759 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 15:01:00 +0000 qpswan 666759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great proportions and colour blocking! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-lime-and-turquoise-waist-leg-surrender-diy-striped-bag#post-666753 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 14:56:32 +0000 rae 666753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I saw this color combination on Angie's Pinterest board and knew I wanted to wear it ASAP. I suspect this outfit might be deemed seasonally confused by some, but my need for a cozy, comfy outfit trumped all other causes today. As you can see, contrary to my rubric, I have no waist definition to mark the start of my leg line, and nothing to create the illusion of a slimmer midsection. Oh, well, hoping the low-ish contrast between the sweater and dress doesn't chop me up too much.<br /> <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/18577417183594965/" rel="nofollow">http://pinterest.com/pin/18577417183594965/</a></p> <p>The DIY included today is my striped satchel, inspired by the Marc Jacobs Dotty.
