I agree completely with all the comments on how well you put together colors and accessories. You seem to have an incredible structured jacket collection too, all interesting and all with terrific fits which is important in a jacket.&nbsp; and yes, definitely works as a twinset! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thrifted-brooch-blazer-and-elephant-jeans#post-1920423 Fri, 18 May 2018 16:05:14 +0000 Katerina 1920423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Brooklyn&nbsp;</b>and&nbsp;<b>Toban</b>, thank you very much for the lovely comments.<br /><b><br />Mainelady</b>, thank you very much, you are so kind!<br /><b><br /></b><b>Staysfit</b>, thank you for the wonderful feedback and the kind words, I am humbled. I have always loved clothes and especially accessories. I love thrift shopping and I am a devoted bargain hunter. I have a lot of stuff. Time to time, I just pull out a lot of things and try - scarves, costume jewelry etc., and some combinations just catch my eye. I can never do this "in theory" or only in my head - I have to see things in front of me and try. Often, I like the idea of something and in reality it does not work at all. But I love to play.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p><b>UmmLila</b>,&nbsp;<b>Lyn 67&nbsp;</b>and&nbsp;<b>Bijou</b>, thank you very much, you are very kind.&nbsp;<br /><b></b></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thrifted-brooch-blazer-and-elephant-jeans#post-1920372 Fri, 18 May 2018 13:21:54 +0000 Bijou 1920372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely stunning - and now I want a fuchsia twin set too... another perfect outfit.

And the wide legs on the jeans add a glamorous touch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thrifted-brooch-blazer-and-elephant-jeans#post-1920321 Fri, 18 May 2018 10:27:14 +0000 Staysfit 1920321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You caught me with elephant jeans!? As always, you have an excellent sense of color and style! This is a gorgeous look. You look stunning. </p> <p>Katerina, your ability to put colors and shapes together reminds me somewhat of my daughter. I imagine that as she develops a more professional wardrobe, she will pick more sophisticated pieces, like yours, and retain her colorful artist way of mixing everything together. She tells me that I lack imagination which is probably true. She can mix and match things in ways I would never consider and make it work. I think you also have this gift. You are lucky, because it certainly is not something everyone has, and it is not necessarily easy to learn. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thrifted-brooch-blazer-and-elephant-jeans#post-1920316 Fri, 18 May 2018 10:03:07 +0000 Mainelady 1920316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous fuschia!

I combine these with violet patent leather sneakers (real oldies) and a light patent leather bag (a large hobo from Furla, over ten years old). </p> <p>When I saw Angie's post today, I thought that maybe, just maybe, it could qualify as a kind of a modern twinset... though the colours are not exactly the same. </p> <p>What do you think of my new brooch-blazer combo and the outfit?<br /> Grateful for honest feedback, comments, ideas and whatever comes to mind. </p>
