And yes, i suppose that (and to sell clothes!) is why they publish it! </p> <p>As a reflection -- this, and an outfit I wore last spring with a hot pink vest, have been my two most commented posts. Apparently, hot pink IS my color :)</p> <p>@ Suz - do you still have that pink suit? How about the pants from it, i dont recall the fit? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-unimaginative-jcrew-look#post-841791 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 04:19:55 +0000 Mia 841791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am a shameless J. Crew cookbook girl! Ha. I meant look book but autocorrect put cookbook. I guess that's it isn't it that we take a formula and make it our own. That's why they publish the catalogue anyway.</p> <p>Great look on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-unimaginative-jcrew-look#post-841738 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 03:34:38 +0000 Suz 841738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am copying this as soon as I possibly can!! </p> <p>NEED a pair of pink pants!!!</p> <p>And I won't even care that I'm a copy of a copy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-unimaginative-jcrew-look#post-841638 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 01:58:50 +0000 CocoLion 841638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You may have copied J Crew but there's nothing dull about this. It is full of personality and perfect for this time of year when it's still winter, we need layers, but our minds are starting to think Spring.</p> <p>Well, I live in CA and it really is Spring here! Birds singing and the Manzanita trees are blooming. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-unimaginative-jcrew-look#post-841633 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 01:56:38 +0000 Jaime 841633@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The ability to know what to copy is no small skill in itself.

I love the mix of pink, stripes and leopard print. </p> <p>I think of inspiration photos like recipes - it's not unoriginal to cook with a recipe. We can't all be chefs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-unimaginative-jcrew-look#post-841021 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 16:07:37 +0000 Sarah A 841021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Point taken Thanks Angie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-unimaginative-jcrew-look#post-841018 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 16:05:40 +0000 Angie 841018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Who cares if you are unoriginal! </p> <p>KILLER outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-unimaginative-jcrew-look#post-841010 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 16:02:03 +0000 Sarah A 841010@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This purpose of this outfit was to try wearing the recently un-interview-suited navy jacket from my keep/donate post and see what its potential was as a spring blazer. Well MAJOR success there, i love wearing it, it is comfortable, drapes and breathes like a dream. I am glad I have the gold buttons (purchased yesterday) and will look forward to switching the buttons out to give it that classic blazer look. I didnt have a leopard clutch so I went with the shoes. White bag b/c I am trying to pretend it's spring today. Rolled under the black cuff on the BR sweater and off I went. I feel lovely but unoriginal.... hmmmmm. Feedback appreciated :)</p> <p>ETA: I tried both a little worn scarf and a never worn belt (over the closed blazer) to try to slide into GP's challenge but both looks failed, and opposed to Monday when I wore the failed scarf anyway today I left if off. </p>
