The opaques and shoes ground and bookend the outfit fabulously too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144818 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 22:56:39 +0000 bj1111 1144818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>susie, i like how the looser shape of the second sweater makes the outfit a bit less formal while the studs on the shoe up the rock and roll factor. &nbsp;a slightly RATE version of #1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144745 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 21:41:56 +0000 Catnip 1144745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this outfit!&nbsp; The stripes and leopard look great together and you got the proportions just right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144717 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 21:16:14 +0000 Caro in Oz 1144717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF - I think it works well with the tights &amp; your legs look amazing </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144682 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 20:45:31 +0000 Susie 1144682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all so much! </p> <p>It is unseasonably warm today so I was concerned I would be hot when I went out at lunchtime but the sweater and tights were still quite comfortable. </p> <p>Jewell, that's a good suggestion but you're right that I don't wear a lot of necklaces. I&nbsp;usually only wear&nbsp;them when I want to fill in a lower neckline. </p> <p>Thistle, that could&nbsp; be me- I'm in HR and used to regularly wear heels :)<br />I don't buy nearly as many high heels these days. These are&nbsp;about 3 1/ 2 inches but when Angie showed them as one of her Nordstrom picks, I fell in love!</p> <p>April, that's a great point! Fortunately I am behind a desk. And it has a front panel...which cover enough but still allows my shoes to show!!</p> <p>Here are the shoes:</p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/rebecca-minkoff-gio-too-black" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/rebecca-.....-too-black</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144623 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 19:37:02 +0000 Inge 1144623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore the pattern (and colour) mixing here. The stripes look extra fun paired with the leopard print clutch. And I agree that the skirt length works with the dark tights. It's always fab to see your WIWs, Susie. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144579 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 18:31:51 +0000 Anonymous 1144579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love how all the black works as a backdrop for the patterns. Glamorous, yet totally work-appropriate! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144578 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 18:31:27 +0000 carter 1144578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this combo! Can't see the boots on my phone, but the silhouette looks terrific. Awesome skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144573 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 18:25:26 +0000 April 1144573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks totally appropriate&nbsp;to me -- also chic and modern. &nbsp;I'm such a fan of a black sweater, tights, and shoes, with contrasting skirt.</p> <p>Here's an issue to consider, though. &nbsp;In my old job, the only way to talk to people who came to my office was to swivel around in my chair to face them, with no desk between us.&nbsp; When I did that, skirts that often were perfectly fine in a standing position felt too short. &nbsp;</p> <p>If you sit at a desk where this isn't an issue, no problem. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144558 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 18:07:16 +0000 Parsley 1144558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a darling outfit on you, Susie! Black and white is always a winner, and the leopard clutch is really fun with it! I wish I could see your shoes better, because I know they are FAB! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144489 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 16:57:22 +0000 Emily 1144489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great and totally office appropriate! &nbsp;Monday definitely calls for leopard and studs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144477 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 16:46:32 +0000 carambola 1144477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great, and totally office appropriate.&nbsp;Love the leopard print clutch with the striped skirt.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144432 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 16:00:43 +0000 Thistle 1144432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely!&nbsp; I really like the cashmere paired with the skirt. Gosh I love cashmere. And to think, before YLF, I would have never dreamed of buying it! </p> <p>The tights do indeed make it office appropriate. How do the shoes feel? I always worry about heels more for comfort than office appropriate. Our HR person regulalry wears 3+ inch heels. No idea how she walks in them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144426 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 15:54:18 +0000 Sara L. 1144426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! I agree that the tights make the skirt and heels office appropriate. I'm loving the stripes and leopard print together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144333 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 14:42:53 +0000 El Cee 1144333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stripes and leopard… Love it! You look great. The skirt fits well and does not seem too short… especially when worn with tights. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144329 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 14:40:16 +0000 Suz 1144329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This skirt looks great on you, Susie. I think the tights make it totally okay with heels. Nice outfit on you!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144325 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 14:39:25 +0000 Jewell 1144325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fab! Love love love the stripes with the leopard clutch- a combo I've wanted to try for a while. And yes, the tights make it fine for the office. I would be tempted to add a necklace, but that's just me. The outfit looks perfectly lovely without one, and I don't recall you being much of a necklace person. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeat-with-a-twist#post-1144303 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 14:26:37 +0000 Susie 1144303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've worn- and shown- this skirt before. Today I'm wearing it with a different , but still black, sweater. This one is cashmere and super comfy. I am also wearing the Rebecca Minkoff shoes with black studs which don't show up too well. I hesitated a bit because the heels are high and the skirt is above knee bit hopefully the black tights make it ok for the office. </p> <p>My leopard clutch came along today to add some wild to a Monday!</p> <p>Comments and suggestions always welcome! </p>
