You rock those birkies! You make me wish I had them. Now that would make sense if I liked them ..<br /> But apparently I have a poison eye for them! WTH!</p> <p>Beautiful choice of top for the midi skirt. That blue is gorgeous on you (similar to the blue EF top) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-midi-birks#post-1276544 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 18:31:51 +0000 shedev 1276544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit, Shannon.

This not only extends my wardrobe budget, but makes choosing items more fun in figuring out how it can work for the office and home.</p> <p>Shevia - I'm enjoying this shift in style myself. It's a combination of something innate where I just starting drifting in this direction but also deliberate choice. I think it's finally starting to come together and yet still feels very much like <i>ME.</i></p> <p>Sara - I know there are other Fabbers with Birks poison eyes who will join you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-midi-birks#post-1276295 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 13:37:26 +0000 jackiec 1276295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Echoing Sveta &amp; Suz!

This looks so put together and relaxed at the same time. It is incredible.<br />Looking really fab Shannon. :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-midi-birks#post-1276279 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 13:11:13 +0000 Sara L. 1276279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the outfit is great except for the shoes, but I have a poison eye for birks. :)&nbsp; The flats look good though, no reason for heels with this outfit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-midi-birks#post-1276272 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 13:00:41 +0000 Anonymous 1276272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree, the Birkis are a perfect foil for your shapely legs and ankles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-midi-birks#post-1276268 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 12:54:06 +0000 leopardluxe 1276268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blue is such a great color on you!

This is fantastic and it so wonderful you can dress like this for work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-midi-birks#post-1276236 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 12:07:56 +0000 Suz 1276236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Sveta said. I think your pretty ankles make almost any shoe -- even my poison eye Birks -- look fantastic. Ditto the marble skirt. I love it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-midi-birks#post-1276229 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 11:53:06 +0000 Sveta 1276229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I may be warming up to Birks because I think it looks adorable.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-midi-birks#post-1276223 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 11:39:42 +0000 pil 1276223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another winner, the blues of the bag and jacket are a nice touch. Those skirts are a real treasure with the option of being dressed up or down. The casual workplace is giving you the opportunity for double duty clothing, isn't it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-midi-birks#post-1276219 Thu, 12 Jun 2014 11:28:42 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1276219@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today's outfit started with my VC marble patterned midi tube skirt (waving to skirt twin Elizabeth!). I paired the skirt with my black lace drapey tee and then topped that with my light blue linen-blend boxy cropped jacket. I scrunched the sleeves for some added structure. For footwear, I chose my black/white polka dot Birks. I can't believe I'm wearing a midi with flats (essentially) - a shortie like me. See what you can teach us Angie? :)</p> <p>For accessories, I went with my cobalt/cream/black handbag, red specs and a gold/turquoise cuff. Looks like I'm ready for the day!</p> <p>I realize this is quite casual for the workplace, but trust me…this will be fine in my office. This outfit will also work for weekend get togethers with the BFF for coffee, shopping with hubby, etc.</p> <p>So what do you think? Does it all work together? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.&nbsp;</p> <p>Jacket: Liz Claiborne<br />Tee: Smart Set<br />Skirt: Vince Camuto<br />Sandals: Birkenstock (Papillio)<br />Cuff: thrifted<br />Handbag: Danier Leather </p>
