Just an idea...</p> <p>LOVE the white jeans and you look great in them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626922 Wed, 23 May 2012 17:09:47 +0000 Transcona Shannon 626922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Claire - the blue in the tee is a darker navy than the jacket.</p> <p>L'Abeille - interesting that this is leg lengthening. I was sure that white would cause my legs to look even shorter than they are. I've always had a fondness for longer jackets even though at my height, they are not always the best for me. Thanks for the feedback!</p> <p>Thanks Rae and Makrame! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626913 Wed, 23 May 2012 16:48:45 +0000 Makrame 626913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! Thanks to the inspiration from you and Celia, I am looking forward to pairing the Boutique 9 shoes with my white jeans but I for now I am staying away from open-toe shoes for safety reasons. That jacket is wonderful - rich, deep blue color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626895 Wed, 23 May 2012 16:18:06 +0000 L'Abeille 626895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon I love this outfit. And not just because I'm always up for the nautical look.</p> <p>This is the most leg-lengthening look I have ever seen you in. And it's not just the heels, because it comes across even in the thumbnail. I think it has something to do with the 2 tiered effect of the tops: the longer, darker blazer layer over the white visually narrows your hips and lengthens your legs.</p> <p>Funny, because my eye has finally gotten used to the short-jacket-over-long-top proportion. And here is the evidence for why the reverse has always been a classic: it's so flattering! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626883 Wed, 23 May 2012 16:05:50 +0000 rae 626883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this! The v-neck tee with blazer strikes me as a little bit menswearish, too, which you know I like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626873 Wed, 23 May 2012 15:47:16 +0000 Anonymous 626873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a great striped T! I can't tell if it's black and white or just a darker (than the blazer) navy and white, but either way, I like the way it looks like you've thrown caution to the winds and worn them together! It adds a bit of chic interest, IMO. This is a great jumping off point for your new white jeans. You'll soon see that you can wear them with everything! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626840 Wed, 23 May 2012 15:03:29 +0000 Transcona Shannon 626840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! I will definitely try different shoe options and see what other ones will work as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626787 Wed, 23 May 2012 13:49:48 +0000 citygirldc 626787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love everything about this outfit. You look great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626776 Wed, 23 May 2012 13:23:11 +0000 modgrl 626776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love everything about this outfit and how it came together for you. I think you could even wear these with higher shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626763 Wed, 23 May 2012 13:10:08 +0000 Tanya 626763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it totally works! I actually prefer these shoes to colored ones, this way the bag can shine and you get a longer leg line. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626738 Wed, 23 May 2012 12:46:25 +0000 Aunty 626738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooooh I like!!!<br /> THe v neck and the line of the jacket are amazing on you. I love the orange bag with it, a fantastic change from the usual red.<br /> Chic to the max </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626732 Wed, 23 May 2012 12:39:26 +0000 Sona 626732@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>very cool, crisp and classic Parisian chic. I like the v neck on the t makes it look like a vest! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626731 Wed, 23 May 2012 12:39:20 +0000 celia 626731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are the white jeans :)<br /> This does work beautifully, in fact I am ready to copycat you ASAP.<br /> I also love navy and orange.It makes the whole pairing very fresh to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626730 Wed, 23 May 2012 12:38:40 +0000 marianna 626730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice! Those jeans are a perfect fit. You look wonderful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626720 Wed, 23 May 2012 12:14:08 +0000 Anonymous 626720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooolala, so French and crunchy crisp. The jeans look perfect and you've updated the classic blazer with color, booties annd sleeve scrunching. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626717 Wed, 23 May 2012 12:06:36 +0000 Meredith1953 626717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely! This is such a classic look but you still imbue it with your personality. The oxfords and the bag add a bit of edge and unexpected fun. I love navy and white together as you know, but now I want to find a navy jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626716 Wed, 23 May 2012 12:02:04 +0000 Deborah 626716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this! Tasteful, elegant but still "cool" and contemporary. I do agree with Shevia tho that I also feel a different shoe would add something. I love the Boutique 9's, however I'm wanting to see a colored shoe here. Doesn't have to match the bag. And take it for what it's worth, as it's just an opinion because this outfit still looks totally fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626711 Wed, 23 May 2012 11:46:21 +0000 Jaime 626711@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great jacket - it looks smashing with the white jeans. The only quibble I have is with the shoes I am not sure why, but I sort of want another color shoe. A small point regarding a great look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626705 Wed, 23 May 2012 11:16:53 +0000 Kiwichik 626705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A chic classic look but added punch in the shoes &amp; bag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-white-jeans#post-626702 Wed, 23 May 2012 11:13:42 +0000 Transcona Shannon 626702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well the new white jeans are back from being hemmed and are ready to play! I've done a fairly typical pairing with navy - my vintage blazer and a navy/white striped tee. I'm wearing my Boutique 9 peep toes for a neutral shoe to help lengthen the leg line and am wearing my orange handbag again (love orange and navy together). My oversized gold watch is all I have on for jewelry.</p> <p>Does this combination work? Proportions ok? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Blazer: vintage<br /> Tee: Liz Claiborne (thrifted)<br /> Jeans: Jeanne Bekker (Canadian designer)<br /> Shoes: Boutique 9<br /> Watch: thrifted<br /> Handbag: Danier Leather (thrifted)</p> <p>ETA: I've now been sitting for a full 7 hours (financial planning day in the office so not moving from my desk) and thought it might be interesting to check the status of these jeans after that amount of time (i.e. wrinkling and butt stretching). So Kristin and I giggled away as she took these two shots beind my office door. I think the jeans are holding up incredibly well and I couldn't be more pleased - BTW sorry for the close up of my butt! </p>
