Having said that there is absolutely nothing wrong with them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwthis-week-mariner-stripes-and-pencil-love#post-1241231 Sun, 04 May 2014 02:14:22 +0000 Jaime 1241231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 and #3 are my favorites and you are quite right to stick to these tops - they love you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwthis-week-mariner-stripes-and-pencil-love#post-1241152 Sat, 03 May 2014 23:48:41 +0000 Jjsloane 1241152@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My word I love this. 3 and 4 are faves, but I love the blue of the top in 1/2. I think I prefer 1 over 2 and you are right another element would help balance it out? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwthis-week-mariner-stripes-and-pencil-love#post-1241135 Sat, 03 May 2014 23:31:17 +0000 pil 1241135@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe it is the crispness of the white or vigor of the red, but I really love 3 and 4! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwthis-week-mariner-stripes-and-pencil-love#post-1241059 Sat, 03 May 2014 21:30:53 +0000 Anonymous 1241059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All of these are great, Carla!

All are great! I Iove the animal print mixed with the stripes in 3; and 4 looks sassy (hope you don't mind me using that word :)). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwthis-week-mariner-stripes-and-pencil-love#post-1240913 Sat, 03 May 2014 18:10:30 +0000 Marmee 1240913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All fab outfits, but #3 is amazing. &nbsp;YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwthis-week-mariner-stripes-and-pencil-love#post-1240910 Sat, 03 May 2014 18:09:01 +0000 L'Abeille 1240910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I too am a sucker for Breton stripe tops, so of course i love all of these. But the outfit with the red one takes my breath away. (Maybe I need to branch out from blue and black?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwthis-week-mariner-stripes-and-pencil-love#post-1240577 Sat, 03 May 2014 03:00:10 +0000 MsLuna 1240577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these outfits on you, Carla!

You do it so well!!! I love the last one with the pops of red! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwthis-week-mariner-stripes-and-pencil-love#post-1240423 Sat, 03 May 2014 00:12:32 +0000 kellygirl 1240423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are gorgeous outfits. I can't pick a fave although I really love the cobalt in 1 and the stripes in 3. You rock a skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwthis-week-mariner-stripes-and-pencil-love#post-1240417 Sat, 03 May 2014 00:08:50 +0000 Aida 1240417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1, 3, and 4 are all perfect as-is! I like the simplicity of #1 and think the color combo is enough not to warrant needing a third piece. #2 looks good as well, though with the color column I do kind of want to see something there to break it up and add more visual interest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwthis-week-mariner-stripes-and-pencil-love#post-1240412 Sat, 03 May 2014 00:06:36 +0000 missvee 1240412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 3 and 4. You're not alone in your love of stripes. I think they add so much interest to an outfit, but they're never fussy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwthis-week-mariner-stripes-and-pencil-love#post-1240395 Fri, 02 May 2014 23:58:43 +0000 JAileen 1240395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love stripes too. #3 is especially good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwthis-week-mariner-stripes-and-pencil-love#post-1240376 Fri, 02 May 2014 23:35:26 +0000 dustt 1240376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>oh Carla - we're stripe soulmates!!! - I love them all.&nbsp; I can't seem to resist a Breton stripe boatneck!! - all colors welcome in my closet!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwthis-week-mariner-stripes-and-pencil-love#post-1240371 Fri, 02 May 2014 23:32:03 +0000 greycat6 1240371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely!

This month I dispatched my 3 favourites (2 black and white, 1 grey and white). They had become shabby and thin from constant wear over the 2 years I had them.<br /> I picked up one replacement in a black and cobalt stripe that I thought would work with my black bottoms. Lo and behold, it was a perfect cobalt match for my cobalt pencil skirt!</p> <p>Once started I decided to make this week all about mariner T's and pencil skirts. I think #1 and #2 would have benefitted from a 3rd element like a jacket. I like #4 the best. Gave the jean jacket sleeves an extra roll so they are even with the hem of the jacket.</p> <p>Pics #3 and #4 - a bit chipmunk faced. Had some serious dental work that has me swollen on my left side.</p> <p>As always, thanks for looking! And I appreciate any styling advice/suggestions. </p>
