I like that blazer on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-what-does-this-need#post-359139 Tue, 31 May 2011 19:30:54 +0000 nancylee 359139@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for loading up on necklaces or adding a scarf! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-what-does-this-need#post-359138 Tue, 31 May 2011 19:29:43 +0000 Jjsloane 359138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I second (third?) the addition of a scarf or big necklace. Loads of silver chains or one big piece would work. Maybe add metallic shoes? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-what-does-this-need#post-359130 Tue, 31 May 2011 19:13:58 +0000 Linn 359130@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the suggestions of colorful shoes/purse and jewelry. Angie's suggestion of scrunching up the sleeves is great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-what-does-this-need#post-359067 Tue, 31 May 2011 17:32:23 +0000 anna 359067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would like to see this outfit with a black top to make the color continuous from the bottom and up. Preferably a blouse that would add texture, like a silk blouse with a gauzy bow that creates interest. If you choose a plain black shell then I would add a thin scarf in black/ silver. Then I would add earrings, large silver hoops or pearls. A red bag would give some color. I think the outfit is very versatile and looks good on you, just needs a little something added for interest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-what-does-this-need#post-359057 Tue, 31 May 2011 17:20:09 +0000 Girl X 359057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Colour sounds great, but I'd probably go for metallics instead. Rolled or scrunched sleeves with metal bracelets and a couple silvery necklaces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-what-does-this-need#post-359055 Tue, 31 May 2011 17:18:31 +0000 christy 359055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! I'm going to play around with some of these suggestions to pick up the interest level when I get home tonight for the next time I wear this. I'm already at the office but I did scrunch up the sleeves and added some bigger jewelry pieces before I left the house and I think that helped. Thanks for the feedback! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-what-does-this-need#post-359022 Tue, 31 May 2011 16:19:40 +0000 Jyoti 359022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I totally second Angie. If its not for a more conservative/business context, scrunch/roll up the sleeves first thing! Then I'd add a cuff and maybe a scarf, and switch out the shoes for something with a little more pop. Something colourful, or even a grey would work. And then if you really wanna feel chic, and its nice and sunny outside, you could break out the sunnies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-what-does-this-need#post-358982 Tue, 31 May 2011 15:09:55 +0000 yellowgirl 358982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Color is my first thought, too. A pop of orange, red, yellow or even a bright green would look good with this outift. A colorful statement necklace, scarf, belt, shoes or bag would take the whole look up another notch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-what-does-this-need#post-358978 Tue, 31 May 2011 15:06:29 +0000 rute 358978@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Add some lovely details, like a silk scarf or a lovely blouse!<br /> You can wear a suit with lovely colorful pumps, red or indigo. That adds also interest to the oufit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-what-does-this-need#post-358970 Tue, 31 May 2011 14:59:29 +0000 Angie 358970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For starters, scrunch up the sleeves! I like Suzanne's suggestion about colour. Also, how about a necklace or earrings?</p> <p>Great dress slacks btw:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-what-does-this-need#post-358941 Tue, 31 May 2011 14:19:59 +0000 suzanne 358941@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>COLOUR! As far as I'm concerned the outfit is really fine, it simply needs something colourful to make it pop. Do you wear those little knotted scarves that Angie so loves? That would work in a lovely colour like red/bright colour that suits your complexion. Otherwise, what about a colourful T/blouse under the jacket? (There is nothing wrong with the room!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-what-does-this-need#post-358933 Tue, 31 May 2011 14:10:30 +0000 Anonymous 358933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about adding a tie knotted low? In the photo the blouse seems very close to the color of the blazer. I wonder if a bright white or something with more color would be better. What color is your bag?<br /> The blazer also might be a bit short for the high contrast with your black pants, but that could be because of your arm being up to take the photo.<br /> Your black trousers look like they fit beautifully and are the right length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-what-does-this-need#post-358926 Tue, 31 May 2011 13:57:08 +0000 nicoleb 358926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok I am in no way an expert but i feel like by looking at picture 2 that the blazer is not the best fit on you if you're going to wear it open. I think if you wanted to wear those pants maybe a fitted blazer would work better? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-what-does-this-need#post-358918 Tue, 31 May 2011 13:42:24 +0000 christy 358918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Could this be any more boring?! Basic components: blazer from a local boutique, classique entier trousers, blue tee from Nordstrom, black Bandolino heels. Help, suggestions and honest feedback welcome! Thanks!</p> <p>PS - the only full length mirror I have with decent light is, of course, in the ugliest room in my house. Note to self - time for that remodel! </p>
