There are going to be failures this month, but I will appreciate your thoughts.<br /> Shedev and skit tie, all that brightness is out of my comfort zone, but I did enjoy wearing these on a gray day.<br /> Janet, you are right. Tomato, orange and coral reds are some of my best colors when I want to get away from neutrals. I wish I could wear purples, olive and dark teal better. Some are ok but not my best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1500165 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 16:34:55 +0000 Janet 1500165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really pretty color combination, Joy! And so nice with your coloring. I wish I wore orange tones better, but I enjoy this palette on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1500163 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 16:29:57 +0000 Bonnie 1500163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a new member and am really enjoying these WIW posts.

The colors were unexpected and cheerful. I wasn't sure the cardi would look ok with the bright pants.<br /> Torontogirl, the jeans are a roomy fit, so quite comfortable. My skinny legs mean that even skinny jeans are often a loose fit. I'm glad that you think these look ok. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1499816 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 01:57:51 +0000 Helena 1499816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the fit of those pants on you - very nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1499808 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 01:48:15 +0000 Anonymous 1499808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the color combination. &nbsp;It literally takes my breath away. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1499799 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 01:38:49 +0000 Anonymous 1499799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, your sweet words are like a warm hug.<br /> Windchime, thank you for looking and your kind words about my style.<br /> I saw "Iris" last week and loved her memories of being told as a young woman that she was not pretty, would never be pretty, but she had style. I'm not and never have been pretty, but aspire to have style.<br /> Unfrumped, please join in and see what happens. I agree that this is a nice change from black and grey. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1499793 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 01:24:19 +0000 unfrumped 1499793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, super re- mixing. This is a great inspiration post. I am much in need of " dwelling" with what I have and editing more rigorously. Your outfit looks vibrant and summery. The warm leather tones do that, as a change from pairing with black of gray.<br /> The shoes are great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1499789 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 01:18:05 +0000 Windchime 1499789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great idea for a challenge, and I'm glad it means we'll get to see more of your beautiful, elegant style. This outfit is a fun start; I like the vibrant colors and your choice of shoes and bag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1499784 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 01:11:54 +0000 Angie 1499784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>She is.

The outfit is fun and comfortable. The hip and pulled together part I have you to thank for the inspiration. I know that your client must be enjoying her orange capsule. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1499778 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 01:04:19 +0000 Anonymous 1499778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for your comments.<br /> Elizabeth, TraceyLiz, Crutcher and Kellygirl , I need a challenge to keep from getting lazy. I hope that I can stick with it.<br /> Suz and Sara, the shoe and bag color were the closest I could come to those in Angie's ensemble. I'm glad they are working. The clothing colors were also an attempt to copy those in the Orange capsule. I don't think I'd have put them together on my own, but enjoyed wearing them on a cool cloudy day.<br /> Annabelle, I think these jeans are dark coral. It will be challenging to find a good white tank. I am only 5'3" but most seem too short, or the neckline and armholes are too low. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1499770 Tue, 02 Jun 2015 00:55:14 +0000 Angie 1499770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. Totally hip, comfy, pulled together and happy. The shoes are amazing with those jeans, Joy. FABULOUS.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1499549 Mon, 01 Jun 2015 16:07:47 +0000 annabelle 1499549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So pretty on you! I've always liked orange and pink together (on other people... not my color, sadly) and the red jeans are simply *dark pink* right? The accessories are perfect. And I sympathize with you for needing to replace a basic white tank. Sometimes, those are the most challenging items to find. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1499548 Mon, 01 Jun 2015 16:06:42 +0000 Sara L. 1499548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit!&nbsp; I love the colors and the the tan accessories.&nbsp; It's summery and colorful.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1499546 Mon, 01 Jun 2015 16:04:20 +0000 TraceyLiz65 1499546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy this is fantastic! &nbsp;Have fun with your June challenge , you are off to a wonderful start.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1499544 Mon, 01 Jun 2015 15:59:35 +0000 crutcher 1499544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I so love a challenge...Glad you constructed your own...That should be fun to SYC and post...<br />Great colors..love the &nbsp;mixes... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-orange-capsule#post-1499530 Mon, 01 Jun 2015 15:40:17 +0000 kellygirl 1499530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous color combo, Joy.

So I welcome all critic, suggestions and comments.<br /> My inspiration today was Angie's 77 year old client's orange capsule. I have some similar, but old pieces.<br /> Red jeans: NYDJ rolled just a bit.<br /> White tank: old EF linen with a white Target tank underneath. I need a new white tank.<br /> Cardigan: old Bobeau poly/rayon blend. Just right for today's temperatures.<br /> Shoes: old Pikolinos<br /> Bag: thrifted Fossil woven leather<br /> Finds are similar until I can do more custom finds<br /> All comments, suggestions and critic is welcomed </p>
