Funny, but Ann Taylor is promoting the same idea in their stores. They have a new faux fur leopard scarf that they are showing belted like a vest. I almost bought it but resisted - now that I see you modeling the idea, I might bite. See, you're so on trend! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409895 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 15:26:41 +0000 Lisa 409895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had no idea that was a scarf until you said so. Just a super look! And I like the new sandals, a nice pairing for this outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409805 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 13:24:50 +0000 AJ 409805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you kindly Sara L, Marley and ButterflyLady!</p> <p>If you try it, please post pics! : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409772 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 09:15:02 +0000 ButterflyLady 409772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my goodness, you look fabulous - the colours are lovely on you, the vest from a scarf trick is so clever (I am going to check out that tutorial) and the shoes look great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409745 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 05:42:28 +0000 Marley 409745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The different shades of blue anr just beautiful on you AJ - I am so excited to try the scarf/vest trick myself - thanks so much for the tutorial! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409715 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 03:12:24 +0000 Sara L. 409715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the blues in your outfit and think you look great! I love these scarf vests I've seen recently on YLF. Such a great way to add color and interest to an outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409431 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 18:16:53 +0000 AJ 409431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much ladies! I'm glad the espadrilles are getting YLF approval!</p> <p>Vildy - Maybe you just need to find the right length vest? </p> <p>Diana - I look forward to your scarf vest post!</p> <p>Sona - One positive of having a rather curveless shape is that it takes little time at all to drape fabric on me. Plus this scarf just started curling naturally at the front providing the idea for the shawl type collar.</p> <p>Angie - K ratings make me SQUEE and do a happy dance! Many thanks!!</p> <p>Modgrl - I've just been playing around with 2 more scarf vest outfits. This scarf trick was just the boost I needed to help me dress for these 100+ (F) temps that seem to go on FOREVER! </p> <p>Plus I am so excited for whenever I go on my next vacation. Packing some scarves and belts will take up little room but will be heaps of help in adding spice to a limited wardrobe! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409391 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 17:29:36 +0000 Anonymous 409391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful and perfect for a hot day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409387 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 17:20:20 +0000 rachylou 409387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ohmigosh, you are stylin' it!

They're ultra cool on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409369 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 16:46:50 +0000 qfbrenda 409369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How creative!

I don't think the shoes are frumpy at all, especially with a jean skirt like you're wearing them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409302 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 14:40:29 +0000 bella 409302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>wow, that looks fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409295 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 14:34:43 +0000 Carole 409295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Clever, clever gal!

Wow. Great espadrilles for your climate too. </p> <p>KILLER! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409249 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 13:26:39 +0000 Sona 409249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>your creativity is amazing. I'm also impressed how well you have laid the fabric out evenly- it takes a lot of patience and skill to do that. Brava! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409245 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 13:04:32 +0000 Transcona Shannon 409245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool AND gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409243 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 12:58:51 +0000 Diana 409243@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all the different shades of blue! The wedges are great - not frumpy, and I think they go really well with the soft, sort of beachy vibe of the outfit.</p> <p>I need to put together an outfit with a scarf vest - I think I finally found a scarf that works for it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409226 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 09:39:39 +0000 Vildy 409226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Everything that can possibly read as some shade of denim always escapes<br /> being frumpy to my eye.</p> <p>I can't wear vests at all but am enjoying it immensely vicariously. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409218 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 07:44:28 +0000 Aunty 409218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good grief!!! You have surpassed yourself. I love the wedges and you just look gorgeous. That is such a clever trick </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409193 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 05:31:57 +0000 AJ 409193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Kari! I hardly wear monotone outfits and I tried to add a colorful necklace, but the scarf seemed just enough on it's own. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409186 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 05:11:55 +0000 Kari 409186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, I'm loving the blue-on-blue. Truly, from the front, the way you draped and belted the "vest", I'd never have known it was a scarf. I like the ombre back view too.</p> <p>The wedges don't read as frumpy to my eye. I like the slate blue shade! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-scarf-vest-2#post-409185 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 05:07:21 +0000 AJ 409185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1) The two tone teal scarf that I got at the YLF swap proved to be ideal to tie into a vest!<br /> Tutorial here:<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/prepare-to-plonk" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....e-to-plonk</a><br /> 2) The crinkle fabric also added some texture.<br /> 3) What do we think of the wedges? I was on the fence as to their possible frump factor, but they are so light and comfy that I was able to wear them all day! It's a chambray type material by Skechers. </p>
