WIW - Wed-Fri to work

Elizabeth P

Here are my work outfits for the latter part of the week.

My thoughts... I like 1 and 3. Something is off in the proportions of #2... maybe I need a black necklace as well? Or scrap the belt for a long necklace? I had several (casual) meetings out of the office, and it was a wet windy day, so yes, the boots were part of my outfit

Do you have any suggestions to improve? TIA!

I like them all. On #2 I think it might be the placement of the belt. Can you wear it a bit higher? If not, the black necklace might work o balance the proportions.

I like #3 the best. The pop of red in your shoes add an extra dose of fun.

I think for #2 the topper should be a bit shorter or less flare at the bottom for the proportions to be right. Then the belt is fine and I love my wellies too.

Hi Elizabeth - I agree with Mona - the addition of the red shoes is a nice accent. Perhaps a few more dashes of color? Red scarf? Good job.

Love the red shoes! 3 is my favorite. 2 just needs something to bring the eye up as it seems bottom heavy. A scarf might be even better than a necklace to balance the volume of the cardi.

Love the clean lines of #3.

I think Joy is right the second outfit seems bottom heavy. I think I would prefer it without the long cardi as I think it is the combination of long cardi and long boots that are making your bottom half look short in comparison to the top. I think the answer is either the boots or the cardi but not both.

Love that colour blue in the first outfit - you look great and black and white and vibrant colours.

#3 is great - love your red shoes!!

I think the cardigan in #2 overwhelms you a bit.

And isn't it amazing what we see in photos? I can NEVER see it the same way in the mirror, although I'm getting a bit better at this after several years on YLF. (Slow learner, here....)

I hear you, sometimes the wellies just have to be it! I also think the #2 sweater is a bit oversized and swallowing you. The #3 shoes are awesome, i think a higher contrast scarf could be nice -- even white or cream would pick up the sole accent of the shoes. Did i mention those are great shoes! The fit on your jeans looks really stellar too

Second outfit seems to be pulling down. I would say play with raising the belt or using a necklace to raise attention up. The sweater seems very long. Again....everything seems to be pulling you down.
