It's basically a couple of rectangles sewn together, knit in a stitch pattern I got from a scarf pattern. The second one is a pattern by Norah Gaughan called "eastlake" but I modified it quite a bit.<br /> Have you seen my <a href="http://diana.lookfab.com/post/fall-knitting">fall knitting post</a> yet? </p> <p>Rae, I am so happy about the transitional weather! I like being able to wear a jacket without dying. =P</p> <p>Isabel, these are the shoes (only in black and grey, size 36 though):<br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Fly-London-Womens-Open-Toe-Sandal/dp/B002PEW6MY" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Fly-Lond.....B002PEW6MY</a><br /> They apparently once upon a time came in turquoise. If I ever see a pair of those, you can bet they're coming home with me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-variations-on-a-theme---summer-and-fall#post-718178 Tue, 11 Sep 2012 14:53:56 +0000 Angie 718178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 and #3 are KILLER. </p> <p>You are a fab thing, Diana!

I miss knitting so much! Do you design them yourself? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-variations-on-a-theme---summer-and-fall#post-717689 Tue, 11 Sep 2012 00:09:57 +0000 Diana 717689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My outfits from yesterday and today incorporate all of the same elements (handknit top, printed skirt, blazer, and yellow gladiators), and yet the first one is distinctly summery and the second one is distinctly autumnal. </p> <p>1/2: It was cool on Sunday but really humid. The jacket was not really necessary but I was happy that it was cool enough to wear a scarf. I wore this to brunch with some Fab ladies (Isabel and Mochi)! </p> <p>handknit shell, grey BR layering tank underneath, Anthro skirt, Fly London gladiators, Greylin blazer, Fossil straw bag, and H&amp;M scarf.</p> <p>3/4: It feels like Fall today!!!!! Yay! I have missed layers and jackets. This crazy, layered, drapey outfit made me happy, it just feels so <em>me</em>. I found the skirt on crazy sale at a fancy consignment store this weekend - it is silver, has a cool print and messy pleats, and the bottom ties into an awesome bubble hem. </p> <p>handknit top, Komarov skirt, H&amp;M leggings, Nanette Lepore blazer, gap belt, Fly London gladiators. </p>
