I really like how the touches of silver tie the entire ensemble together. And the drape of the tee pairs beautifully with the shorter and more fitted shorts. And at the risk of sounding kinda creepy, you have killer legs </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335834 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:59:07 +0000 jackiec 1335834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it all! Great tshirt find! I love that style and it looks fab on you. I like the pairing with the shorts, and nice tie in of the triangles with your accessories. Triangle necklace, triangle shorts, shiny short, shiny shoes. Well done Boy oh boy does it look hot..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335831 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:57:05 +0000 Golden 1335831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit!

I really like those silver flats too.&nbsp; I think the tee looks fine.&nbsp; When I wear something like that, that might show my bra, I also try to chose a bra that looks deliberate </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335802 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:27:02 +0000 Jules 1335802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I think this is pretty much perfect, especially considering the weather! Way to dress up "shorts and a tee". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335799 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:17:17 +0000 texstyle 1335799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in those shorts and the tee seems perfect for you.&nbsp; Pretty bras can really make a difference when there may be a little peek here and there. Looks like you guys were having a fun time and I really like the action shots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335786 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 12:48:16 +0000 MuseumGal 1335786@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh the the famous cashmere T! It looks great, and I like it with all the metalics too.&nbsp; So it's actually light enough for a FL summer?&nbsp; You were comfortable (or as comfortable as one can be at 95)?&nbsp; Sorry if this is asking for TMI, but ... any issues with the cashmere and sweat or odor? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335778 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 12:30:20 +0000 Janet 1335778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great -- I love the way you've added some glam to casual! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335773 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 12:22:11 +0000 Karie 1335773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fantastic in short shorts, and I just love those brocade J. Crew's. I usually wear my shorts a little longer, but WOW, I might have to purchase those&nbsp;those and show a little more leg!</p> <p>Does the drapey tee cling? I've had some that did and I didn't like that in the heat. I currently have some cotton/linen ones that don't and I love them.&nbsp;</p> <p>Your accessories and bra are gorgeous too. Hopefully the heat will break soon! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335757 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 11:46:05 +0000 Jaime 1335757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the shiny pointy flats with the matte tee - fun shots! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335754 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 11:40:05 +0000 Anonymous 1335754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the casual tee with the dressy shorts.&nbsp; It is a Mo outfit, for sure. Looks good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335750 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 11:34:35 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1335750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo, I saw the link to the blog post and was going to comment yesterday. &nbsp;I don't think the t shirt is too big at all. &nbsp;I like that slouchy look in a fabric that drapes nicely and it works well with the shiny shorts. &nbsp;That bracelet reminds me of the dress Marion Cotillard wore at the oscars a few years ago. &nbsp;Very cool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335747 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 11:31:03 +0000 Vildy 1335747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Only you could wear a cashmere top in 95 degree humidity and still come out looking cool.&nbsp; Instead of clothing contributing to you looking better I think you do all the clothes a favor by making them look terrific. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335677 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 05:24:16 +0000 Beth Ann 1335677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glam casual -- perfect for your style and your life!&nbsp; I don't know how you keep looking so great in that much heat, but it's inspiring!</p> <p>Perfect timing too, to get a couple of new items to boost your hot weather wardrobe.&nbsp; In your case, there's plenty of wear before autumn! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335666 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 04:59:38 +0000 Suz 1335666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a terrific outfit! You look great in the shorts, and I love the way the drapey tee contrasts with the shiny brocade. The silver accents are terrific, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335373 Tue, 19 Aug 2014 22:57:30 +0000 rachylou 1335373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those shorts are super cute!</p> <p>I like your hair. Looks very sleek. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335364 Tue, 19 Aug 2014 22:46:05 +0000 Aida 1335364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great Mo! I really like all the silvery shine (pretty bra included!) to dress up what is, no matter how pretty the drape, still just a tee. Glad to hear the road test went well. I've a hunch that this type of drapey tee would net better use for you than a similar plain white one. I'm with Lisa though, at 95F and sticky, I'd be jumping right into that lake ^^ </p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335352 Tue, 19 Aug 2014 22:36:00 +0000 Anonymous 1335352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Supercute! &nbsp;And the bra with the silver trim too? &nbsp;What a great idea! &nbsp;(says me with a drawer full of only nude and black ). &nbsp;I'd actually have abandoned the outfit too in that heat and jumped straight into the lake behind you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335350 Tue, 19 Aug 2014 22:30:55 +0000 Mo 1335350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gigi, good eye, I have both the front and back (after reading this morning's blog post )&nbsp;semi tucked. &nbsp;My fitbit is bulging under it, I can see though - oops. &nbsp;Normally I just tuck in the front. &nbsp;Will try all versions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335348 Tue, 19 Aug 2014 22:29:09 +0000 deb 1335348@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335346 Tue, 19 Aug 2014 22:25:47 +0000 Gigi 1335346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo, I'm glad you're enjoying the shirt! That's what YLF is about...feeling fab.</p> <p>I can't quite tell if you've got the shirt semitucked...I think you do. What would happen if you exaggerated the semituck? I wonder if that would help some of the draping fall even more nicely? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335345 Tue, 19 Aug 2014 22:24:11 +0000 shedev 1335345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the tee with the shorts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335320 Tue, 19 Aug 2014 21:59:47 +0000 Tanya 1335320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super look Mo! Love the mix of casual and glam. I think that keeping the tee was the right decision. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tue---shiny-and-silver-and-triangles-oh-my#post-1335318 Tue, 19 Aug 2014 21:56:55 +0000 Mo 1335318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Went to Olive Garden for a lunch date with BF. &nbsp;Road testing the BF fit tee shirt with the 'mermaid' shiny shorts. &nbsp;Went with silver shoes and jewelry and more triangles with my necklace to echo the shorts. &nbsp;<br />Tee behaved just fine. &nbsp;Even bent over the sink to find, because of its drape, it doesn't gap any worse than other cotton ones I own. &nbsp;Did 'in action' pics and different lighting (since I had a photog handy ). &nbsp;I'm keeping it. &nbsp;<br />Hair up and not done since it was 95 and sticky as you could possibly imagine. &nbsp;The say&nbsp;next week a dip below 90 degrees. &nbsp;I hope so. <br />&nbsp;<br />LnA cashmere modal BF tee<br />J Crew collection metallic jacquard shorts<br />Penny loves Kenny silver pointy flats<br />jewelry off eBay<br />&nbsp;<i></i><br />Happy to hear all feedback. &nbsp;I am&nbsp;keeping the shirt. &nbsp;But I have a thick skin, so if any tweaks to how to style it better are on your mind, please share. &nbsp;If short shorts or bra flash are an issue for you, know that they are not for&nbsp;<i>me</i>. &nbsp;Thanks! </p>
