Angie and Suz - You are right! The top could be a regular. It didn't feel like an essential or a statement! Thanks for clarifying that! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-blues-and-blacks#post-1385271 Wed, 29 Oct 2014 02:56:07 +0000 Jaime 1385271@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great bf jeans outfit and the scarf is just electric on you in #2. And it is good to see someone else still dressing for summer :-)! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-blues-and-blacks#post-1385192 Wed, 29 Oct 2014 01:21:15 +0000 jackiec 1385192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both are great, but I am in love with #2!!!!

I love black worn with blue.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm not sure if the top in #1 is an Essential. Perhaps more of a Regular. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-blues-and-blacks#post-1383682 Sun, 26 Oct 2014 14:55:29 +0000 Anonymous 1383682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking god Neel!

I think these look great and I love how the brighter blue and bag in 2 create a high contrast look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-blues-and-blacks#post-1383658 Sun, 26 Oct 2014 13:51:19 +0000 Janet 1383658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>High five, fellow blue and black lover! It's a rare outfit of mine that doesnt' include one of those colors as well. :-)</p> <p>I especially love #2, with the touches of white. You look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-blues-and-blacks#post-1383656 Sun, 26 Oct 2014 13:46:22 +0000 marianna 1383656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super cute and relaxed! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-blues-and-blacks#post-1383644 Sun, 26 Oct 2014 12:56:21 +0000 thimblelina 1383644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great looks...

Very soon it would be BBQ season! &nbsp;Woot woot! &nbsp;I was comfy in my favorite BFs (F&amp;F)&nbsp;and the jewelled detailed top (F&amp;F) induced the dressy effect &nbsp;into the outfit. &nbsp;For some walking around and playing a few games, I thought my pony hair slip on sneaks (Steve Madden)&nbsp;would be perfect. &nbsp;They are super comfortable&nbsp;:) &nbsp;I carried a huge canvas tote with lots of picnic goodies in it, but since it wasn't really a part of the outfit, I haven't shown it here.</p> <p><b>Essentials</b> - BFs, Top<br /><b>Statements</b> - Slip on sneaks</p> <p><b>Outfit 2</b> - Worn this morning to run a few errands with the kids. &nbsp;They are on their mid term break. &nbsp;So I get a break from the early morning rush &nbsp;*Happy dance* &nbsp;I am faking fall here. &nbsp;The temps are still in their 90s here. &nbsp;But I wanted to wear one of&nbsp;my scarves. &nbsp;So I pulled out a new tiger print&nbsp;scarf (DSquared) and threw it over a simple shorts and tee outfit. &nbsp;The slip on sneaks and studded handbag (both Steve Madden)&nbsp;completed the outfit :)</p> <p><b>Essentials</b> - Shorts, tee<br /><b>Statements</b> - Slip on sneaks, scarf, handbag</p> <p>So what do you folks think of the outfits? &nbsp;Did I get the essentials and statements right? I think I am loaded with too many statements! &nbsp;Both these outfits are FFBOs for me. Jeans and some kind of top and shoes are my go to&nbsp;uniform. &nbsp;Thanks for looking and commenting as always. &nbsp;Happy Sunday </p>
