Sheet Music Co-Ord Outfit - YouLookFab Forum

In keeping with the two-piece coordinated item outfit trend, here is a fun example.

I've been a musician since I was 9 years old, and learned to read music quite early. I've been wanting a clothing item in a "sheet music" motif for a while but have been very picky - it had to be fairly close to accurate and in treble clef. Earlier in spring I bought this t-shirt from Anthro. It has not been warm enough this spring to wear a Tee alone until this past week and I haven't worn it yet.

I was just browsing Anthro and found pants to match! A full outfit like this would make me feel very silly, not to mention garnering smirks and wise cracks from everyone I know :-), so not for me, but maybe someone else. Even if you are not into music it's a nice B/W graphic pattern.

Sadly it looks like the tee is sold out in this pattern but there are other prints. ... https://www.anthropologie.com/.....;searchpar

p.s. also bought the grey scarf earlier this year.

Fun print! I picked up some playing cards with sheet music on the backs. Someone asked me if it was legit! I thought I could give it a whirl on my piano (before I gave it away) but it really was quite small, and eventually proved too hard for me to make out!

Personal motifs are fun! I love my new LONDON t-shirt. DS#1 collects (and wears) clothing with bicycle or flamingo motifs, and DS#2 anything with bears!

I am not musical at all, so this outfit would not feel authentic. I rarely even listen to music. I just want silence. This may be after the constant noise of teaching. I can not use music as background noise,-but must listen. That is work, not relaxing at all. The outfit is cute on you.

My career was music for most of my adult life, but wouldn't wear more than a bag. Ironically, I often want silence too. I can have music on in the car, or to work out, but not at home. It's like having another person in the house to me.
My dad is the exact opposite- always has to have either music or the tv on at home.

This is fabulous but I'd feel like a fraud because I'm so tone deaf that I had to drop out of a classical music appreciation course in college because I couldn't even tell when the music went up or down.

Oh l like this!I could wear the full outfit for my weekly music group no problem but sadly l can’t justify the spend but thank you for the smiles.

Oh my, I didn't think I liked co-ords (too pyjama-y for me) but I would wear that one in a heartbeat!

When the middle-school music teacher in our town retired, she held a yard sale. She had been given SO MANY music -themed items over the years. I came away with a music-note tshotshke and a mug, and a sheet-music umbrella, that I still use. Acquired since then are a scarf and some treble-clef brooches.

I understand why you wouldn’t wear them together, but gosh I love them both and hope someone will wear them as a 2 piece coord.

Love this T and appreciate your expertise regarding the aurhencity of the graphic.
A awhile back I bought a T shirt that had French newspaper motifs and before I pulled the trigger I consulted a friend who spoke French to assure me what I was wearing.

Great find! I like how you held out for accuracy too!

Olive Green

The scarf is an all occasion piece and can be a gift for a male as well! Good performance piece.

Fun tee!

My friend has the tee

Very cool! Awesome horse print too!

Suz

That's adorable! I can see how it might feel like a bit much as a set but maybe not with a plain topper of some kind. Great finds!

Hah runcarla, reading music is challenging enough without it being too small to read
Joy, I'm with you on not being able to use music as background noise, with the exception of "new age" music. I am drawn in but it's not work, although sometimes I do want quiet. Different strokes for different folks etc.
Suntiger I never though of music as another person in the house but i see how it could be that way. And definitely agree that wearing too much of it as a motif would not work for me. One piece only and not every day.
Vildy not sure whether your story is funny or sad but music is not for everyone for sure.
Cardiff Girl yep one has to decide where to put one's clothing budget! Anthro stuff tends to be pricey at least to me.
L'Abelle I'm with you on not wanting to wear the co-ord look. That yard sale sounds like so much fun!
kkards agreed, although it would have to be someone who bought the tee before it sold out.
Indigoprint, EXACTLY. If the motif is something with which you are familiar, for most of us it would bug us if it were "wrong" and a lot of the designs do take artistic license.
Thanks Jaime, Olive Green, RobinF.
Angie you should get your friend to get the pants and take a photo and share it here with us!
Nikki - I had only looked at the tee prints not the pants ... you are right about the horse print. For the tee I also like the leopards/tigers or fish. Oddly the two garments don't come in the same prints except for the music one where the tee is sold out. I guess Maeve was not aiming for the matchy-matchy coord idea.
Suz good idea for someone like you that likes print pants and wider legs (neither are my thing)

Chris, thank you for understanding. Today I had to pull over in the car to find my favorite talk radio station when I could not stand music any more. The guys who did routine work on the car must have changed the channel and not changed it back.
