Can it be because sleeves do not stay scrunched? This is the only thing which annoys me about it. I really think I will ask my mom to narrow them a bit.<br />Ornella, thank you for such a beautiful comment. I can only wish that you lived or worked nearby, it would be so much fun!<br />Debora, it is true that one person's loss is another person's gain. I have such hard time to find shoes wide enough for my feet that I was ecstatic these fit me. I am sure narrower fab flats will come along for you!<br />Eliza, thank you. My style tend to a minimal one later and I think it makes me to pay more attention to details without even realizing it. I just throw things together and then tweak them until it looks right but for the life of me I cannot explain what it is which makes it right </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-959501 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 00:46:17 +0000 columbine(erin) 959501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would never think to put burgundy and blush together, but you look fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-959477 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 00:08:34 +0000 rachylou 959477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 and #3 are so sharp! I swerved over just to say so </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-959300 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 21:22:55 +0000 Thistle 959300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them all, but #1 just blew me away!! So fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-959284 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 20:52:25 +0000 Eliza 959284@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta- you look so good in all of these outfits. I am particularly drawn to 3,4 and 5. You have such a deft touch with subtle details, especially powerful in 4 where the choice of colors, plus the belt/shoes combo bowled me over. Unexpected, gorgeous and full of what I have come to consider your signature elements. Your mesh sweater combo is awesome! </p> <p>Best with your deck project! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-959257 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 20:19:19 +0000 Debora 959257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my gosh, you are amazing, Sveta! All these are fabulous, but outfit #5 makes me swoon. The mesh sweater and the BF jeans are so cool. I really wanted those flats but they didn't work for my narrow feet. I will enjoy them on you. You look so gorgeous in your white sheath with the yellow jacket. Wow! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-959247 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 19:57:12 +0000 Ornella 959247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, I have bookmarked this thread to come back to it in spare time. It is such a good round I can't just leave it untouched, youknowwhatimean.</p> <p>You look so fantastic and if I lived or worked next to you I would certainly make sure&nbsp;you know I notice the thought and care you put in your outfits. Every piece carefully chosen, beautifully balanced,&nbsp;one never overwhlems another, just perfect. Such a visual feast.</p> <p>And there is such variety every single time you post, it is just so delicious and inspiring at the same time. You look so&nbsp;fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-958072 Mon, 17 Jun 2013 14:32:53 +0000 Transcona Shannon 958072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta - you are getting so much fabulous wear with the yellow blazer. I find I'm not reaching for it as often as I had hoped. I need to get inspiration from your fab outfits with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-958065 Mon, 17 Jun 2013 14:29:34 +0000 Lisa 958065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1-Great outfit.&nbsp; Your recent yellow blazer outfits made me pull my green blazer that's been an orphan so far this season out of my donate pile.&nbsp; It was a workhorse last year but it's been sitting all season this year.&nbsp; I think I have to try remixing it with some neutrals as you've been doing with your yellow one.&nbsp; Last year I always paired my green blazer with stripes and blues. Thanks for some great ideas!</p> <p>#2-Nice outfit but if the top is not working fit wise, I vote pass.&nbsp; There are too many choices in the stores for denim shirts to struggle with one.</p> <p>#3-The yellow and blue is lovely here.&nbsp; A classic outfit with a twist because of the colroed skirt.</p> <p>#4-How clever to pair the burgundy with pink, I would never have thought of doing this but they go very well together.</p> <p>#5-I really like the layering here, the darker color is perfect under the grey. And the bright bag is a nice pop of color for this outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-957246 Sun, 16 Jun 2013 10:36:00 +0000 Jjsloane 957246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You've done it again. I really like 1, 3 and 5 best, but all are winners. How annoying about the sleeves on that blouse &nbsp;- it is nice on you (without the annoyance). I don't think the pants are unflattering, it's just you're now used to the baggier look.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-957115 Sun, 16 Jun 2013 02:02:21 +0000 Nicola 957115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Number 5! And that bright and happy bag- lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-957099 Sun, 16 Jun 2013 01:49:08 +0000 Jaime 957099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorites are #1 and #4 but you look gorgeous every day.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-957096 Sun, 16 Jun 2013 01:46:52 +0000 Sveta 957096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for the comments! <br />Joy, I want to see you blush pants outfit!<br />Beth Ann, Diane G, Gabrielle, Tanya, Nicole Donnat&nbsp;- thanks!<br />Claire, it is sleeves which get stretched in the sweater when I scrunch them up - and then they do not stay up because they are stretched out. I need to come up with some solution for this...<br />Ceit, we should exchange our deck experiences later this summer!<br />Mona, indeed, who would have thought that. These pink pants do not go with everything in my closet but I can think of quite a few combinations.<br />Suz, of course I have already tried the yellow jacket with yellow skirt - alas, they don't go together well. The problem is not that they are different shades of yellow but That jacket is a bright and clear color and the skirt is very muted "mudded" color. When paired together jacket makes skirt look even muddier - not a good thing.<br />Angie, an idea to mix blush and burgundy came from one of you Pinterest pins I hear your order on the Anthro shirt, my captain!<br />Trinity, I hope these flats will work for you, they are very comfortable.<br />DJ, thanks for the link but I don't think I want the hassle of it. My sister and <br />niece are&nbsp;coming to visit us this summer and maybe one of them like this shirt? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956702 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 15:19:16 +0000 donnat 956702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love seeing your wiw s. They are very inspirational. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956701 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 15:15:36 +0000 DeclawedJaguar 956701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Number 1 knocked me out with its beauty, so I couldn't see past it. Also love the holey sweater ensemble on you. Actually, I love them all.</p> <p>If you do decide to get rid of the Anthro shirt, consider listing it for sale on this <a href="http://effortlessanthropologie.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">blog</a>. It's devoted exclusively to Antho garb. Every week, there is a <a href="http://effortlessanthropologie.blogspot.com/2013/06/the-trade-market-looking-to-selltrade_10.html" rel="nofollow">trade market post</a>, where people sell or buy their Anthro things. That way you could recoup some of your costs and move on to a better shirt. You could also offer it up in the Style Exchange here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956697 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 15:10:16 +0000 trinity 956697@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta,&nbsp;I absolutely love your style! I especially loved seeing the Adam Tucker Me Too flats in #5.&nbsp; I'm anxiously awaiting the ones I ordered in Rosewood based on the recommendations of you and Joy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956692 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 15:02:16 +0000 Nicole D 956692@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just.so.Fab. Angie clone in #3. Inspirational is the right word. Love that white blazer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956666 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 14:12:15 +0000 Angie 956666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 blows me away!!<b><i> WOW.</i></b> But I love it all! You know I do. #1, #3, #4 and #5 are an 11 out of 10. Like how you are mixing blush with burgundy. So clever! </p> <p>(Btw, I'm wearing the blue shirt in #3 today with blue BF jeans, white belt and pumps - or flats depending on how much I walk :))</p> <p>I vote pass on your orphan denim shirt and lets find you another. xox </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956630 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 13:25:28 +0000 Tanya 956630@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow Sveta, each and every of these outfits is gorgeous! &nbsp;I am especially impressed with #3 and #5, and love the idea of pairing blush and burgundy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956627 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 13:18:46 +0000 Suz 956627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, you always look amazing and always look new! You're such an inspiration.&nbsp;</p> <p>My absolute knock-down favourites here are #3 and #5. That holey sweater is just terrific. And you are so fresh and pretty in the yellow and blue that I could scream.&nbsp;</p> <p>Bizarre thought. Would there be any way to wear the yellow jacket and yellow skirt together as a sort of off-beat "suit"? I know the yellows clash a bit -- and perhaps IRL that clash is too much. But I was just thinking it would be really cool to tie them together with some sort of patterned top perhaps -- it would be so different. Probably a non-starter. But worth mulling.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956585 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 12:34:42 +0000 Gabrielle 956585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely LOVE every single one of your looks. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956570 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 11:27:21 +0000 Anonymous 956570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What fab outfits Sveta! I agree with Beth Ann, your colour combos are indeed very sophisticated. My favourite looks are 3 and 5. Happy landscaping! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956564 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 10:58:00 +0000 Mona 956564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Who would have thought the pink khakis could be so versatile? #4 is my favourite with #5 as a close second. Light blue shirt with yellow skirt looks awesome.&nbsp;<br />Have fun landscaping and drop by whenever you have some free time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956560 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 10:50:53 +0000 Anonymous 956560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LoVE 4 and 5 in particular, but you look great in all of these!</p> <p>Hope the deck goes up easily! We are constructing a bathroom in the basement and also planning a deck for later in the summer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956496 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 06:02:47 +0000 Anonymous 956496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the Calvin Klein sheath dress! Gorgeous with your Monty bag too! I really feel your pain on the tencel shirt. I am having the same issues with a favorite (for it's looks anyway) blouse of mine. I will look for stretch in the future!</p> <p>I love your holey sweater too. That tank looks perfect under it. I think the stretch-out factor is part of the charm of these sweaters. It must be what makes them hang and drape so beautifully. Great week Sveta! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956461 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 04:04:10 +0000 Beth Ann 956461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're using such sophisticated and beautiful color combinations these days, Sveta.&nbsp; Love the yellow blazer --- it's one of my favorites in your wardrobe.&nbsp; I wish I had the sweater to copy #5 -- casual BF perfection! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956459 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 04:01:31 +0000 Anonymous 956459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You WIWs are great looking and inspirational. I don't think I can pick a favorite, but enjoyed your version of Angie's outfit with the yellow skirt and your pink pants outfit. I'm wearing my blush pants today with a silk purple top and the MeToo Adam Tucker flats in rosewood. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956448 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 03:50:08 +0000 Sveta 956448@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks pil. Unfortunately these sleeves cannot be altered - I already asked my mom about this :-(&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956443 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 03:46:17 +0000 pil 956443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my, Sveta! I love each and every one of these. The burgundy is really nice with the blush pants. Could you slit/open the cuff seam a few inches on the Anthro blouse so it would open some and be easier to roll?</p> <p>Oh, and have "fun" landscaping : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-yellow-blue-and-white#post-956433 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 03:32:00 +0000 Sveta 956433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We are doing a big landscaping project this summer including building a deck so my free time is going to be very scarce on the coming weekends. I will try to post my weekly WIW just to keep myself motivated but I may not be online much otherwise. I apologize for this in advance! :-)<br />Also sorry for my disheveled look in pcs 2 and 4 - they were taken right after we came home from the gym.</p> <p>pic 1 <strong>Daisy white and yellow</strong><br />I am trying to wear this white sheath more often now before it is too hot for it. I really like bright yellow&nbsp;and white together, it did brighten up the gloomy and rainy day.<br />Calvin Klein white sheath via Winners<br />Yellow academy blazer - Gap<br />Re Me Too pumps - NAS </p> <p>pic 2 <b>Orphan day</b><br />I am struggling with this Anthro denim shirt I got in Chicago last spring. I like the tencel fabric and its drape and I like high / low style but these sleeves drive me crazy! The fabric does not have stretch in it and while sleeves are not tight they are a bit constricting, especially when I try to scrunch them up and have to have my arms bended. Also the cuffs do not have buttons and opening so they are very hard to scrunch and I have to roll them up. I am considering to take the sleeves off to see if I can wear it more this way but I am also ready to pass it on even though it was not a cheap buy.<br />I am also not sure if these skinny Martin pants do me any favors. Maybe my eye adjusted to looser fit now but I am not sure they are flattering on me - too tight?<br />The grey Trouve oxfords are living through their last summer I think: Portugal's rain and cobble stones really did them in! I hope I can find a good replacement at NAS this year...<br />Tencel denim shirt - Anthro<br />Martin skinny pants - BR<br />Trouve grey flat oxfords - NAS</p> <p>pic 3 <b>Angie's copycat</b><br />Ever since Angie posted her red skirt / blue shirt outfit last week I wanted to copy it. I don't have a red skirt so I substituted for a yellow one. My pale blue shirt with white trim is still going strong - even though I wish it was longer...<br />Halogen yellow seamed pencil skirt - NAS<br />Blue / white button down - BR<br />Cream pointy toe slingbacks - Ros Hommeson</p> <p>pic 4<b> Feeling pink</b><br />Pink pants again! First time I paired them with black, red&nbsp;and animal print. This time I decided to add white, burgundy and gold. They are still&nbsp;new&nbsp;for me so I am not sure if I got it right this time. What do you think?<br />Pink khaki pants - Gap<br />Burgundy sweater - Reitmans<br />White cotton blazer - Melanie Lyne<br />Gold slipper flats - Isaac Mizrahi</p> <p>Pic 5 <b>Hole-y boyfriend</b><br />This is the&nbsp;only mesh sweater I have. I decided to wear it today with BF jeans. I did struggle with the tank to wear under. I tried white and it was too light and low cut neck so I did not like it. Then I tried this purple one with a square neckline and I think it works much better. Too bad the sleeves of the sweater do stretch out a lot - it does bother me.<br />Kut BF jeans - NAS<br />Mesh polka-dot sweater - Madewell<br />Me Too Adam Tucker grey flats - Nordstrom</p> <p>This was my week.
