The stripe bag also adds a touch more zip. I am also ok with the *bagginess* of the jeans. It's on-trend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-variations-on-a-theme#post-1047721 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 22:51:29 +0000 Carla 1047721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very stylish, but more fun...just looking at this outfit makes me happy!

In fact, it inspired me to buy a cobalt blouse the other day.</p> <p>I'm not sure about the slouch. I like the relaxed vibe. Something about this looks a bit like you're undecided between relaxed and crisp??? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-variations-on-a-theme#post-1047454 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 15:25:50 +0000 Jaime 1047454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Suz that the slouch seems just right in #2 and maybe too baggy in #1 but overall I think you look great and love the striped bag here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-variations-on-a-theme#post-1047438 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 15:17:29 +0000 Suz 1047438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! I think this is one of your best yet! Absolutely stunning on you, and what a brilliant idea to use the striped bag. When I first opened I thought maybe it was the Brahmin!!&nbsp;</p> <p>It's tough to say about the slouch. Each of us has our own threshold for this. It looks extreme in photo 1 but not in the other photos (to my eye).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-variations-on-a-theme#post-1047435 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 15:16:06 +0000 viva 1047435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The color combo is great - and is inspiring me to have another go at a cobalt top I am struggling with, so thanks for that. I see what is being said about the extra slouch at the hip area but I have to say that the pants look great to me in image 2, and the scrunch at the ankle is perfect! So I wouldn't despair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-variations-on-a-theme#post-1047434 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 15:15:25 +0000 annaj 1047434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this colour combination!

Any chance you could take it to a seamstress and see what she has to offer? That may be a solution.</p> <p>The color combo looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-variations-on-a-theme#post-1047402 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 14:53:44 +0000 amiable 1047402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like my black/white/cobalt color combo so much <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-blackwhiteblue-colorblock">yesterday</a> that I'm wearing it again today. &nbsp; Here's today's rendition.</p> <p>The white jeans are a little longer, and less slouchy. &nbsp;The shoes are oxford booties (maybe shoeties) rather than the knee-high lace-ups. And no black silk scarf today.&nbsp; I'm adding the Spiegel lemming as a topper for when I go out.&nbsp;</p> <p>Does it work? &nbsp;Are the proportions okay? &nbsp;What are your suggestions?</p> <p> </p>
