When clothes start to play well together...

Mochi

This is important for me, because I'm disorganized and easily overwhelmed. Not that I don't want more, and more options , but again, life is better for me when I can get dressed in under ten minutes.

Better with scarf, or without, in this case? Without had that Angie integrity. With is romantic, of course. I like both.

Thanks as always, lovelies!

Jacket: Halogen

Love the jacket on you and with the booties. It works both ways but I guess I will pick without the scarf and with the sleeves scrunched.

I love it both ways, and this way you get two outfits! So judge by weather.

You look fantastic. The results of your hard labour (with fitness and fashion) are now bearing beautiful fruit. You are coming into your own style.

That jacket looks so good with your hair color. I like it without the scarf but I am not a scarf person and like accessories at a minimum.

without.

and I would suggest a longer shirt as a solution when you are going to be wearing 'hybrid' jean/leggings.

All in all the colors play really well and you look 'spiffy'!

I prefer without the scarf by just a bit but it looks very nice with it as well. Isn't it nice to have options?!

I prefer the look sans scarf, but the outfit is sweet with a scarf too. Maybe a chunkier scarf, Nancy? Or is that not romantic enough?

Fab clutch addition. Amazing subtly-rugged textures from top to toe.

Hi Mochi --

You look great!

I like both looks but for you prefer "with scarf" a bit more given how linear the outfit is otherwise -- the scarf's softness echoes your curls and adds that swashbuckler flair that's become part of your style.

Maybe just ask yourself: WWARDD? (What would a romantic dandy do?)

Not looking at replies, but my first instinct is with the scarf!

I can tell your wardrobe is really gelling lately, Nancy. You are looking fab!

Can't see the photos well enough on my phone to comment on the scarf /no scarf, but I love these colors on you.

Thanks, all. Angie, I need more scarves, I guess! I have a beautiful infinity scarf from Vicki, but otherwise nothing chunky. Even this one I opted out of when I left the house. It's still too hot (I didn't need the jacket either--it got muggy out of nowhere).

If I had the body type that did linear really well, I would wear Angie-style linear outfits every day. I think, though, that something romantic/dandy/however you want to call it plays up and balances out my curly hair and curvier body.

Sona, thanks for the apt tunic tip. And these pants aren't leggings; they're kind of like cargo pants without the side pockets. They have some room to them.

Fun outfit option for when the weather actually does cool down some more.

You can't go wrong either way. I love the scarf and I love it without. So fab and sleek and chic!

LOVE! With and without. I am getting a bit of a poison eye for dangling scarf ends, though. I think I would wear this scarf bandana style -- folded into a triangle and tied in the back.

I like it a smidge more with...but like Mary, wonder if a different tie might be better still. And if you're after more scarves, consider a soft rectangle tied as a tie, knotted low...?

This is a marvelous look for your form and persona -- a little bit rugged, a little bit romantic. I think I have a slight preference for the look with the scarf, but I agree that a couple of chunkier scarves would be fab for you when cooler weather hits.

It is nice when your wardrobe plays together like a symphony, instead of scrimmaging like a rugby team! You've laid a great foundation for yourself, buying great pieces and putting the time into styling them before the morning rush hits!

Still love that jacket!
Like it better in general w/o the scarf because that's the benefit of the collarless jacket.
Another idea, if you're just trying to add another element for interest, is a pendant necklace that picks up the lighter color, as did the scarf. And consider having a longer, linear scarf that knots a bit lower down.
YLF!
