For the first outfit I like the idea of the black cons, a dark belt as Aida said and add the white jacket from 4 in if you need the warmth or to add a little structure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1237166 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 01:24:28 +0000 Aida 1237166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 as is, doesn't read as terribly sweet to me. #2 feels a bit heavy, but still works; you could try removing the white button up there and doing a semi-tuck with a black belt. Great shorts, and go Team Wear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1237033 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 22:36:23 +0000 Ledonna N. 1237033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>2, 3, and 4 winning.&nbsp; The dark jacket is a compliment to the light colors I actually said oh out loud when I saw pic 2.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1236985 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 21:52:54 +0000 greycat6 1236985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about trying a denim jacket with #1?&nbsp; That might toughen it up without the heaviness?&nbsp; Fun color combo that suits your complexion nicely.&nbsp; Sometimes the weather plays a part in how appropriate I feel in a particular outfit. You might feel differently about the color combo on a warm sunny day.</p> <p>Love the new stars top outfit - the lime green shoes make it pop!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1236960 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 21:18:41 +0000 Thistle 1236960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous!&nbsp; I just love #1!&nbsp; I feel like you have the look nailed perfectly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1236851 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 18:57:53 +0000 Kiwichik 1236851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sold on the first outfit but not sure why however the second outfit with the new star top is divine,</p> <p>I wonder what the green shorts would look like with the lime green shoes from the second outfit and the white jacket rather than the black - I feel the black us too heavy. I'm wondering if the colour combo isn't singing as the blush and green aren't as bright as those from the inspiration photo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1236220 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 03:11:14 +0000 Suz 1236220@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those green shorts are really cool! I am pretty taken with them. I am not sure whether the blush works with them, but I don't know if it is a saturation thing or a photo-only thing -- sometimes colours just reproduce weirdly and it's hard to get a good read on them. And I think maybe it happens more often when they are similar in value.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love outfit 2, but hear you on the belt. I know that "creepy" feeling and it kind of spoils the fun of an outfit when you're dealing with that.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1236123 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 01:47:37 +0000 merwoman 1236123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey Amy! Echoing some of these suggestions - black leather jacket a little heavy - how does the white jacket look? I like the lime and peach pairing -&nbsp; so fresh especially paired with the cons. Love the outfit in pic 4! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1236109 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 01:21:12 +0000 Anonymous 1236109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, what are those lime green shorts? I like the blush and lime here but my favorite outfit is #4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1236097 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 01:04:15 +0000 Jaime 1236097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Try it without the jacket and with the black cons - I like those shorts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1236036 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 23:51:27 +0000 pil 1236036@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wonder how it would work with only the black sneakers and not the jacket? Do you think your hair is dark enough to bookend the dark shoes? Also, what about gray or white bottoms with the blush top - and your green loafers? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1236021 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 23:31:32 +0000 magpie 1236021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with rabbit on #2. &nbsp;Without the black to ground it, something about the saturation(?) levels of the blush vs lime green is off to my eye -- I think the lime green would need to be paler to work really well with that top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1236019 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 23:29:59 +0000 dustt 1236019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>really like the white jeans with the navy blouse and the Lime shoes!! - </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1236012 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 23:25:37 +0000 amiable 1236012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good point rabbit - I'm so used to being rumpled looking that I didn't even notice. &nbsp;(But yes, the shirt is linen, and I'm guessing it's going to be rumpled looking no matter what)</p> <p>And I agree, the black is a bit heavy for it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1236009 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 23:24:16 +0000 jackiec 1236009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blush with lime green? What a great idea!! It totally works! I find the black jacket a bit heavy with the light colours &amp; shorts, but you've mitigated it with the dark shoes. Maybe would better with that white jacket! WTG team wear! Looks great!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1236008 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 23:23:13 +0000 rabbit 1236008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really&nbsp;like the version with the black cons and jacket, nice! &nbsp;</p> <p>I think the darker colors ground the pastels, but the pastels work well with your complexion so it all fits. </p> <p>(The only thing I might do is iron the shirt tails, but I realize that they are probably gonna do this anyway after five minutes if the shirt is linen ). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-sweet-and-sour-and-stars#post-1236006 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 23:18:02 +0000 amiable 1236006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today I wanted to wear blush with lime green, as suggested in this post. &nbsp;Such a springy combination.</p> <p>It sort of worked for me, but I'm not sold on it. &nbsp;It seemed a little too sweet just as-is, so I tossed on a black leather jacket when I went out. &nbsp;(And ended up cold - it's not shorts weather for me yet).</p> <p>What do you think? &nbsp;How should it be improved?</p> <p>Bonus: a team wear moment - I wore my newly-purchased star shirt (It's sheer navy with white stars. &nbsp;I wore a tank underneath)&nbsp;with white jeans and a white pleather jacket yesterday (and lime shoes, for fun). &nbsp;I liked it a lot, but should have worn a belt as the jeans kept creeping down, then the shirt coming untucked.... </p>
