I really like pulled together shorts outfits. And for summer, they are necessary! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622850 Fri, 18 May 2012 12:09:01 +0000 Meredith1953 622850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like both looks but I think stacking all the bracelets on one arm would give even more impact. Such a pretty shirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622845 Fri, 18 May 2012 12:02:25 +0000 Anonymous 622845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see what you are saying with the shirt. At the time I wrote my response, I was using my cell phone, and the shirt looked a bit different, more relaxed, so yes, it might not work out if you untuck it. I agree.<br /> Ha, I so understand the belt issue, my pants fall down no matter what I do. In that case, I prefer combo #2, with the turquoise belt, the necklace and sandals. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622842 Fri, 18 May 2012 11:54:39 +0000 Janet 622842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the color combo -- I see what Zap is saying though, and i think a simple solution would be a thin black belt that would blend in with the shorts more. I love the idea of keeping the turquoise sandals and necklace. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622813 Fri, 18 May 2012 09:12:54 +0000 lyn67 622813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the nr. 2! Great job! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622780 Fri, 18 May 2012 06:05:41 +0000 christieanne 622780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Coral and turquoise pretty much say "summer" don't they? Can't beat the color combo.<br /> Your two strand turquoise necklace is terrific with the collared shirt and personally I say heap on the turquoise and keep it coming. Sandals are a fun addition. </p> <p>I like the fit of the shorts but wonder if they are too dark for the rest? Looks fine but I'd love to see you do the same top and the turquoise with a lighter shade bottom and see how that works sometime just to play with contrasts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622779 Fri, 18 May 2012 06:00:50 +0000 Kiwichik 622779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Coral blouse and turquoise beads are a winning combo. FWIW I'm not too good on shorts but to my eye they would be even more flattering if they were slightly longer - say knee length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622666 Fri, 18 May 2012 02:45:44 +0000 Ana 622666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this outfit! You really wear the knee length shorts well. They look like they fit great! And I like turquoise and coral together. Very summery. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622663 Fri, 18 May 2012 02:43:36 +0000 Tanya 622663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice outfit! Love the combo of turquoise and coral and those are gorgeous sandals. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622662 Fri, 18 May 2012 02:41:40 +0000 ironkurtin 622662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just signing back in to say I am so envious of your cheekbones! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622659 Fri, 18 May 2012 02:38:58 +0000 Transcona Shannon 622659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love those sandals Victoria - they're so pretty on you! And I adore the colour combination here. I prefer it with the turquoise belt as it plays so nicely with your turquoise jewelry. Great look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622490 Thu, 17 May 2012 22:30:57 +0000 Amy 622490@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this a lot, but prefer the turquoise belt. You somehow manage to look polished in a shorts outfit...I always end up looking rumpled and haggard, lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622465 Thu, 17 May 2012 21:50:34 +0000 HelenInCanada 622465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool casual work outfit, Victoria. I think I prefer the camel belt better. The touches of turquoise work nicely with the coral! Lucky you can wear shorts to work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622464 Thu, 17 May 2012 21:49:48 +0000 Victoria 622464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Claire: Thanks! yes the sandals are from Born, I love that brand for comfortable and cute shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622459 Thu, 17 May 2012 21:45:51 +0000 Anonymous 622459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute outfit! I have turquoise sandals too, but yours look nicer. Are the Born? I usually stack on my turquoise bracelets when I wear them, but I don't have earrings or a necklace in turquoise, whenever I've tried them it seems like too much. </p> <p>I actually like the shirt tucked in, and you're lucky to have shorts that sit at your waist so that this works! I like the belt matching your shoes, very nice, but the neutral belt is nice too. This is a pretty, feminine button front shirt, the color looks great with turquoise for sure. I think the shorts look fine straight. I think they would need to be at or below the knee for a taper to look right. Nice outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622430 Thu, 17 May 2012 20:42:31 +0000 Victoria 622430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zapotee: thank you for input. I actually am not a huge fan of wearing shirts untucked especially if its a tailored shirt and the one i am wearing was too loose to look good otherwise(but that's just me). I have seen women carry that off but it always feels odd to me. I actually tried it with black sandals first and thought it looked fine but I wanted to get some use of these turquise sandals(because I always wear black shoes and I guess I am just trying to change that:)<br /> Incidentally, I end up wearing belts with most pants I own because they are always slightly too big in the waist, even after being tailored they always seem to want to slide down, not sure why that is:( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622416 Thu, 17 May 2012 20:29:07 +0000 Kirti 622416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would probably wear the shirt untucked, but I love the colour combo! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622402 Thu, 17 May 2012 20:11:06 +0000 Anonymous 622402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love coral and turquoise - I just bought me that J Crew bubble necklace in turquoise to rock it off during summer. I'm planning a white tee, bubble necklace, coral pencil skirt and cognac sandals outfit... Can't wait for warmer weather!!!</p> <p>I think this is a fab MOTG / casual outfit - I'm so jealous of your dress code. I'm suggesting minor tweaks and please take my opinion with a HUGE grain of salt: </p> <p>As far as the turquoise jewelry, I would do the necklace or the bracelet, but not both, since you have the turquoise sandals. It becomes too much of a good thing, you know? I'd say go with the necklace, so it bookends the sandals. </p> <p>I don't think you need a belt and I would actually untuck the shirt or do a messy half tuck, to add to the relaxed vibe. I think the tuck + belt distracts from the one strong point of interest that "I think" you are trying to achieve, which is the coral and turquoise color combination. That way, the eye goes straight to the fab combo.</p> <p>I think the shorts look good but I am not an expert on the cropped pant department or in anything else for that matter!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622396 Thu, 17 May 2012 20:02:14 +0000 ironkurtin 622396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Something about this strikes me as off, and I don't think it's a style-preference thing so much as a one-thing-doesn't-match thing. I think this look would totally work if the shirt and shorts were crisper. Or if the shirt were worn more casually. I's like this outfit is trying to be two things and once and not quite hitting it?</p> <p>The colors are great on you, I must say! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622394 Thu, 17 May 2012 20:00:04 +0000 Victoria 622394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>texstyle: actually, these short are supposed to be straight leg because if they are tapered more at the bottom, I Think it creates unflattering pear shape effect </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622393 Thu, 17 May 2012 19:59:42 +0000 rae 622393@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this! The coral and turquoise go so well together. Lucky you to have no dress code! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622386 Thu, 17 May 2012 19:49:07 +0000 modgrl 622386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the turquoise belt better than the light one. Perhaps a black belt would be nice too. I think colored belts are tricky. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622385 Thu, 17 May 2012 19:48:48 +0000 AJ 622385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are the shorts black or brown? This outfit looks stylish and polished. Nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622379 Thu, 17 May 2012 19:45:41 +0000 missvee 622379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love coral and turquoise together - so fresh! I'd probably put all the bracelets on one arm since you have the turqoise beads and belt as well, but it looks nice just as you've styled it here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622375 Thu, 17 May 2012 19:40:11 +0000 texstyle 622375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Color combo is great. I always wonder about this length in shorts - should they be a little more tapered at the bottom? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shorts-outfit-coral-and-turquise#post-622348 Thu, 17 May 2012 19:01:46 +0000 Victoria 622348@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just trying to experiment with my tailored shirts and wear them in a different ways. I don't have dress code at work so longer shorts are ok. Added turquise beads and bracelet for some southwestern feel. Any input welcome:) </p>
