I go to the store and make a beeline for anything red, and then get home and think, gee, I wish I had some navy blue and taupe.</p> <p><b>Angie -&nbsp;</b>Thank you. Dinner was great--the pub didn't disappoint!</p> <p><b>smittie -&nbsp;</b>Thank you! I love this top for just that reason. It was a lucky find from Express a few years back,&nbsp;but I've worn it to death and it's developing a hole (unnoticeable, for now, because of the lining). I've been looking for a replacement, but I think I'm going to have to go to a higher price point to get anything I like as much.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>kerry and&nbsp;Alassë</b> - Thank you!</p> <p><b>unfrumped -&nbsp;</b>Agreed. I'm coming to the conclusion that I like black best paired with warm neutrals and earth tones. It suits me better than traditional black and white.</p> <p><b>E -&nbsp;</b>When I bother to set up the SLR, I usually just set it on auto-burst and then pick whichever photos I don't hate. So, less posing, and more "caught in mid-movement." &nbsp;I think about your "quirky neutrals" comment quite a bit, and it's definitely helping guide my thought processes. Thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535911 Sat, 08 Aug 2015 02:17:46 +0000 E 1535911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy early birthday! I love your poses, as well as the outfit. Interesting neutrals for the win. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535780 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 22:30:35 +0000 unfrumped 1535780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very good look! I can see the "safari" in the ochre and beading. Love earthy colors that "warm up" black like this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535777 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 22:28:45 +0000 kerry 1535777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535769 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 22:24:29 +0000 Anonymous 1535769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous!<br /> Love your necklace.<br /> Top looks like it's quite slimming.<br /> You look very put together.<br /> I think this is my fave look so far, Jenn! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535640 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 19:55:08 +0000 MTBGirl 1535640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the black and ochre paired together on you! Also like your hummingbird-moth analogy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535636 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 19:51:28 +0000 Angie 1535636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FABULOUS. Those ochre chinos look very fresh and complement the beads in your jewellery. Have a lovely evening.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535607 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 19:05:23 +0000 Alassë 1535607@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the black/caramel colour combination plus the rolled legs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535596 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 18:52:48 +0000 Tania 1535596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>lol about the hummingbird and moth comment!</p> <p>Great combination of necklace and pants, and such a radiant smile and presence!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535594 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 18:49:42 +0000 Jenn 1535594@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Maneera&nbsp;</b>and&nbsp;<b>shedev -&nbsp;</b>Thank you for the comments about the pants fit. I bought these right around the time Angie posted her reminder to choose your own fit, and I still angsted about it, because they don't look anything like they look on the model. I'm trying to think of them as boyfriend-jeans-like.</p> <p><b>Suz</b>&nbsp;- I love neutrals too, but I realized I wasn't buying enough because I'm so attracted to color. I shop like a hummingbird, even though I'd rather dress like a moth. Trying to fix that and find some balance!</p> <p><b>Diane&nbsp;</b>- Thank you! This necklace always scares me when I look at it on the hook, but I like it on. It's huge, but lightweight and the colors go with everything.</p> <p><b>Celia&nbsp;</b>- I think we have similar hair/skin coloring, so that totally makes sense!</p> <p><b>Carter -&nbsp;</b>Thank you! My birthday's not until next week, but I'm going to milk it for as long as possible. As one should. :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535592 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 18:48:38 +0000 carter 1535592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a spectacular color combo on you! You look awesome. Happy birthday! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535576 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 18:37:08 +0000 celia 1535576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice.... Love the outfit.<br /> Every time I see one of your outfits I realize that we tend to wear the same colors and color combinations. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535559 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 18:24:01 +0000 Anonymous 1535559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, this is lovely! It's so cohesive with the repeating shades of black and the way your lovely necklace echoes your pants. Fabulous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535533 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 17:32:13 +0000 shedev 1535533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look so sassy in pose #1. Great outfit, I love the fit of the pants and the necklace. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535508 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 17:03:38 +0000 Jenn 1535508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b></b><b>Word Lily</b> - The glasses are different, but I've worn them in a couple of WIWs. These are my "back up glasses" from Zenni. They're not as comfortable or durable as my everyday Burberry frames, but they were only about $30 with lenses, and I like the geekier vibe.<b></b> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535506 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 16:59:53 +0000 Meredith 1535506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This outfit is lovely. The necklace pairs so well with the ochre pants! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535505 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 16:57:47 +0000 Suz 1535505@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love an outfit of neutrals like this, and especially in summer. Gorgeous pairing and a beautiful necklace, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535504 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 16:57:39 +0000 Maneera 1535504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking great, Jenn!</p> <p>Those jeans fit so well! And you look beautiful in that top. The neckline reakky suits you, as does the necklace. </p> <p>You look positively radiant and very happy! And with that 1000 watts smile, you really don't need any other accessories! Enjoy dinner! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535503 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 16:57:25 +0000 Word Lily 1535503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay, I like it! You look fab. The black glasses really stand out here, in the best way! Are they different than the frames you've worn in past WIW?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-vaguely-safari#post-1535501 Fri, 07 Aug 2015 16:53:39 +0000 Jenn 1535501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My in-laws are taking us out to a local gastro-pub tonight for an early birthday dinner and, since I've been wearing dresses pretty much every time I've seen them this summer, I wanted to do something different.</p> <p>Wearing my new (ish) Loft ochre chinos that I sized up in for a relaxed look, black ruched drape-neck blouse, black ballet flats. My only accessories are my chunky black wayfarer glasses and a multi-strand, beaded statement necklace that's served me well with everything from a LBD to a flannel shirt. Between the necklace and the chinos, I feel a little safari-ish in this outfit, but, thanks to the glasses and blouse, only vaguely.</p> <p>Thoughts/comments/ideas welcome. </p>
