I am not a huge fan of printed and wise pants but your outfit looks cool - #5 in particular.
You rock, Denise!

I cannot tell you how much I love this outfit! I prefer the top knotted and the jacket over it. The black band at the bottom of the pants doesn't bother me. I like the red bag also. It's kind of busy but not! I truly think this is stunning and you MUST wear it.

You look stunningly stylish, Denise! Came to this late, but my favourite was #5. What bag and shoes did you finally go with?

Just another vote of confidence here. I love the outfit on you with the blouse knotted, the jacket on, and either bag. Great pattern-mixing, and I like the volume-on-volume (though I guess the knotting does minimize that effect). I'm impressed with how you put this outfit together. YLF!
