The boyfriend jeans look great with the soft shirt. I love the orange stripes on that shirt too. Makes me think I should pull out my BF jeans (which I've had for manyyears but if I cuff the bottoms they totally look like the current BF jean trend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-taking-my-bf-to-work-mona-style#post-708532 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 18:21:05 +0000 Transcona Shannon 708532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Diana - I definitely do feel more like me. I think I can only do so much rugged or masculine in an outfit before it becomes too far from who I am, you know? Angie really hit the nail on the head when she brought up the missing feminine piece of my previous BF outfits. If I remember correctly, you also mentioned feminine to me.</p> <p>Thanks lyn! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-taking-my-bf-to-work-mona-style#post-708480 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 17:42:59 +0000 Diana 708480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice!

I just checked out Mona's thread (thank you for the link, Deb!) and I love BOTH of you in this look. Shannon, I definitely think you and the BF are coming to terms. He is really starting to flatter as well as comfort you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-taking-my-bf-to-work-mona-style#post-708179 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 13:30:03 +0000 Anonymous 708179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very pretty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-taking-my-bf-to-work-mona-style#post-708168 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 13:12:55 +0000 Transcona Shannon 708168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies! Hopefully I'm getting there in figuring out these BF of mine. As Una knows, I'm like a dog with a bone when I decide I'm going to get something right!</p> <p>Deborah - thanks so much for finding the link to Mona's outfit. And yes, your comment about me wearing the jeans and not the other way around makes perfect sense. Thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-taking-my-bf-to-work-mona-style#post-708164 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 12:44:57 +0000 Deborah 708164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's Mona's post for you:</p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/having-fun-with-bfs" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....n-with-bfs</a></p> <p>You both rock this look. Shannon this BF jeans outfit looks very "you". This looks like it was put together with ease and you look happy and comfortable. IMO this is you wearing the "BF's" not the BF's wearing you....does that make sense? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-taking-my-bf-to-work-mona-style#post-708145 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 12:10:47 +0000 sarah 708145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great look, Shannon! I love the accessories and the foot wear. I've yet to get up the courage to take my BF to work - but maybe that's because my hubbie and I work in the same Dept ; ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-taking-my-bf-to-work-mona-style#post-708140 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 12:02:36 +0000 ramya 708140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooolala...

It is the best BF look for an office...I might steal that next week. I'm glad you're finding your zone with the BFs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-taking-my-bf-to-work-mona-style#post-708130 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 11:34:55 +0000 Anonymous 708130@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this look, Shannon! I think you are dialing down how to make the BF style work for you. It looks comfortable but not sloppy, and I think the orange stripes are great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-taking-my-bf-to-work-mona-style#post-708127 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 11:33:07 +0000 Transcona Shannon 708127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was inspired by Mona's BF outfit with the Old Navy shirt that we both have (sorry - couldn't find the link) so am copying her outfit today for casual Friday. Normally I would think boyfriend jeans are too casual for the office even on a casual Friday but today we're having an "office filing day" so should be ok.</p> <p>I've added my snakeskin bag (can you tell I love this handbag?) for some pattern mixing with the striped shirt and my oversized gold watch for accessories.</p> <p>Am I getting closer in taming my boyfriend? Does this work on me? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Shirt: Old Navy<br /> Jeans: Gap Sexy Boyfriend<br /> Shoes: Boutique 9<br /> Handbag: Elliot Lucca<br /> Watch: thrifted </p>
