I adore french terry items especially in styles that are work friendly. I have two Caslon shirts that are super comfy for travel, WFH, even business casual in office days, that are french terry.&nbsp;</p> <p>Your shoes really make this casual outfit pop, such a fun detail to this outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-things-are-not-always-as-they-seem#post-2408064 Thu, 12 Mar 2026 11:41:23 +0000 Helena 2408064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh wow I LOVE this! You killed it here Kkards! The shoes are perfection. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-things-are-not-always-as-they-seem#post-2408047 Thu, 12 Mar 2026 00:53:48 +0000 Jaime 2408047@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic outfit! Love the shoes with this but even the "right" shoe would have worked . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-things-are-not-always-as-they-seem#post-2408021 Wed, 11 Mar 2026 16:34:44 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2408021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super outfit, and I love the trompe l'oeil aspect! I have seen sweatpant jeans and French terry blazers, but a sweatshirt vest is new to me. I'm another fan of your shoe choice here.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-things-are-not-always-as-they-seem#post-2408020 Wed, 11 Mar 2026 16:27:10 +0000 slim cat 2408020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous! Love the light blue pants ( R&amp;B are the best )! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-things-are-not-always-as-they-seem#post-2408017 Wed, 11 Mar 2026 15:30:38 +0000 Angie 2408017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER</p> <p>Can you believe these are sweats!!</p> <p>One of your best! The dressy dainty shoes make the look - and the colour especially :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-things-are-not-always-as-they-seem#post-2408016 Wed, 11 Mar 2026 14:27:30 +0000 JAileen 2408016@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these a lot. &nbsp;Your outfit looks very smart and comfortable, too. &nbsp;I had the pajama jeans back when. &nbsp;They were gathered at the ankle and annoyed me. &nbsp;I like these so much more. &nbsp;I loved the joke, but I wore them on a trip and saw myself in a mirror and was horrified that it looked like I was wearing oil stained jeans. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-things-are-not-always-as-they-seem#post-2408014 Wed, 11 Mar 2026 13:04:41 +0000 RobinF 2408014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit! Love the wrong shoe theory, although I tend to revert to a more casual option, my comfort zone. And I love a good vest!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-things-are-not-always-as-they-seem#post-2408011 Wed, 11 Mar 2026 12:37:32 +0000 LJP 2408011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a FAB outfit - I love it. &nbsp;I've been mildly obsessed with that blazer all winter but Frank &amp; Eileen prices in Canada are out of my reach. &nbsp;French terry is one of my favourite fabrics.</p> <p>And to the wrong shoe theory - you've used it perfectly here. The outfit would lack this polish if worn with sneakers. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-things-are-not-always-as-they-seem#post-2408009 Wed, 11 Mar 2026 12:33:39 +0000 Star (Lise) 2408009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the shoe choice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-things-are-not-always-as-they-seem#post-2408005 Wed, 11 Mar 2026 11:35:49 +0000 Dee 2408005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh those pants are so cool, Love the idea of sweatpant comfort but still looking well put together using the French terry items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-things-are-not-always-as-they-seem#post-2408001 Wed, 11 Mar 2026 11:25:36 +0000 Janet 2408001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love the shoe choice here! It adds not only an unexpected more refined profile but also more textural interest since the slight shine of the leather contrasts with the matte finish of the terry fabrics. </p> <p>Those pants are so good on you! I’ve been eyeing a pair of side stripe Miramars but trying to hold off since I have a pair already but without the side stripe — my pants/denim collection is pretty flush with options at the moment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-things-are-not-always-as-they-seem#post-2408000 Wed, 11 Mar 2026 11:20:38 +0000 kkards 2408000@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sisi the wrong shoe theory is a fashion hack/trend that says that to really make the look you should choose the shoe that is the opposite of the outfit, so think a sneaker with a suit, or like here dressy flats with sweats. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-things-are-not-always-as-they-seem#post-2407999 Wed, 11 Mar 2026 11:07:57 +0000 Sisi 2407999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pretty and polished! I agree that a vest makes things more interesting. I like the combination of dark blue vest and light blue jeans. Although I do not wear sneakers I think that they can go with jeans&nbsp; - I'm curious, what is the "wrong shoe theory"? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-things-are-not-always-as-they-seem#post-2407996 Wed, 11 Mar 2026 10:34:52 +0000 kkards 2407996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Spring temps had me feeling lighter and brighter yesterday. &nbsp;<div>Love all the pieces in this outfit because they look more tailored and “dressed” than what they feel. &nbsp;“Jeans” and “blazer” are both French terry and like wearing sweatpants. I think the vest, aslo French terry, makes a basic tee look more interesting. For ultimate comfort I could have worn sneakers, but went with the wrong shoe theory and wore the patent leather Mary Janes.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div>Thanks for looking. &nbsp;All comments and suggestions are welcome and appreciated&nbsp;</div> </p>
