Love everything about it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim/page/2#post-626526 Wed, 23 May 2012 02:33:01 +0000 ManidipaM 626526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is beautifully done, that's what it is!</p> <p>Loved the yellow top with the skirt when you were experimenting and love the denim topper for that summery combination of soft yellow and softened indigo! The shoes are perfect with this --- the brown edges seem to curve just like the birds' tail, and I love that subtle echo. The bag is such a fun pop of colour, really updating the look from retro to modern retro, and then the bracelet is the inspired finishing touch --- edgier shapes in the perfect colours. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim/page/2#post-626523 Wed, 23 May 2012 02:29:21 +0000 Jonesy 626523@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect! You have tamed this bucking bronco of a skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim/page/2#post-626446 Wed, 23 May 2012 01:39:07 +0000 Transcona Shannon 626446@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sona - yes, I'm on the administrative side so we're allowed denim toppers at any time and jeans on Fridays - as long as they aren't ripped, to low rise or too tight.</p> <p>Thanks Denise - I never used to wear yellow, thinking it was not a good colour on me. But I'm changing my mind!</p> <p>Thanks Beth Ann - finding the perfect yellow tee has completely dealt with the overly high waist. Thank goodness! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim/page/2#post-626337 Wed, 23 May 2012 00:01:18 +0000 Sona 626337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>TS: really like how you are playing with the skirt. Just a question: does the denim topper work in your work environment?. I suspect since you are on the business side rather than clinical side the answer is yes?<br /> I so envy you.<br /> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim/page/2#post-626330 Tue, 22 May 2012 23:56:19 +0000 CocoLion 626330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This has got to be one of your best Shannon!</p> <p>I love yellow, it is my favorite color this season, with all the shades of coral coming second. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-626304 Tue, 22 May 2012 23:32:17 +0000 Beth Ann 626304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely look, Shannon. Love the idea of keeping the tonal similarity in skirt and top -- this takes care of the "highwaist" issue, and creates an elongating effect while highlighting the print. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-626300 Tue, 22 May 2012 23:24:24 +0000 Transcona Shannon 626300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kiki - fab idea to have a picture of this jacket with me!</p> <p>Claire - this skirt has actually been the toughest clothing item for me to figure out. </p> <p>Angie - look fab blog is up and running! You were right - even easy for me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-626076 Tue, 22 May 2012 18:14:43 +0000 Kiwichik 626076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Proportions &amp; colours perfect! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-626043 Tue, 22 May 2012 17:30:10 +0000 Anonymous 626043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All of your hard work has paid off, Shannon! This is perfect, and perhaps what you saw in your mind's eye when you ordered the skirt in the first place? The similar colored shirt works really well with the high waist of the skirt and the denim jacket looks awesome to add some style contrast. I like your idea of the saturated orange bag to pump the color up a bit and the bracelet's tie-in to the skirts print and colors is the sort of thing that would make me smile all day. Of course the shoes are super-fab as well! I hope you have a wonderful day, knowing how great you look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625990 Tue, 22 May 2012 16:32:44 +0000 christieanne 625990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The skirt really soars with this combination - the yellow top makes it like a tonal column and the pretty pattern gets to stand out. Perfection achieved! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625974 Tue, 22 May 2012 16:07:59 +0000 Ginny 625974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit, love the colors, and the denim jacket is awesome on you!! You SO got this one right, </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625971 Tue, 22 May 2012 16:01:14 +0000 KikiG 625971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You need to put this picture on your phone, and compare every jacket you ever try on to the perfection that is this jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625967 Tue, 22 May 2012 15:54:02 +0000 goldenpig 625967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Angie. I would never have started one if it hadn't been for Greg and YLF blog option. It's as easy as clicking a checkbox to add your post to your blog! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625935 Tue, 22 May 2012 14:52:55 +0000 Angie 625935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am too. But the lookfab blogs are SO EASY it's mind blowing. Start one :). Then I can pin your outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625928 Tue, 22 May 2012 14:46:48 +0000 Transcona Shannon 625928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Y'all sure know how to make a gal feel good on a dreay Tuesday morning! Thank you all so much. I'm much relieved that I can make this skirt work - it was definitely a challenge (as you all know)!</p> <p>Angie - will look into starting my lookfab blog. I'm somewhat technically challenged! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625921 Tue, 22 May 2012 14:39:36 +0000 goldenpig 625921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon hits it out of the park! Love everything about this outfit--that wonderful skirt, the yellow tee (makes it look like a dress), cropped faded denim, the yummy orange handbag that matches the leaves in the skirt and the bracelet with pink, orange and red accents. Everything ties in with each other, which is what I attempt to do with my outfits too.</p> <p>I agree with Angie, you really should start your blog too! Love and adore your style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625915 Tue, 22 May 2012 14:34:10 +0000 texstyle 625915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love everything about this and the colors and style look wonderful on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625908 Tue, 22 May 2012 14:26:30 +0000 Vicki 625908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, this works in all categories and you most definitely got it right. I've just made a copy shot for inspiration, because I love the colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625907 Tue, 22 May 2012 14:26:21 +0000 Meredith1953 625907@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You hit it out of the park! Please excuse the baseball analogy but I am watching every Giants game I can! I love the faded denim jacket with the dressy skirt and I keep debating whether I should try to obtain a pair of those sweet Aerosoles! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625903 Tue, 22 May 2012 14:20:16 +0000 Angie 625903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This outfit is a 10!</p> <p>You should really start your own lookfab blog, Shannon. That way I can pin your outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625883 Tue, 22 May 2012 14:00:10 +0000 Suz 625883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, you look spectacular! I adore that bag!! (Another brilliant thrifting find, sigh...) and the yellow with the faded denim is superb. Also, your hair is making me want to chop mine shorter so I can also spike. Maybe I'll go that route for summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625875 Tue, 22 May 2012 13:39:47 +0000 citygirldc 625875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great and the dress perfectly fits you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625872 Tue, 22 May 2012 13:19:55 +0000 rae 625872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, YES! You got it right! I love these happy colors and the way the neutral elements make it feel down to earth and easy. So glad this skirt is earning its keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625861 Tue, 22 May 2012 12:43:23 +0000 Kirti 625861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! The faded blue and yellow together are to die for </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625857 Tue, 22 May 2012 12:29:10 +0000 Jjsloane 625857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is the best look yet for this skirt. You've honed it down just right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625854 Tue, 22 May 2012 12:22:39 +0000 Lantana 625854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the way the tan swirls on the dress are echoed in the tan trim on the shoes. Likewise, I appreciate the tie in between your bag and similar tones on the dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shabby-denim#post-625853 Tue, 22 May 2012 12:21:12 +0000 ironkurtin 625853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This whole outfit just makes me happy.
