WIW 2/4: Neutrals - YouLookFab Forum

I can't believe I haven't worn this skirt with this jacket before, but better late than never!

Camel pencil skirt: Halogen
Dark gray tee: Danskin (ancient!)
Tweedy moto jacket: Ann Taylor
Studded belt: Streets Ahead
Gray pumps: Madden Girl
Cognac satchel: Banana Republic

And in house news, the living room is officially finished! The Roman shades were installed on the windows last week, and New Guy helped me pick up the console table at the store and then brought it home and put it together on Friday night while I made grilled cheese sandwiches! (Gotta love a guy who puts together furniture!) The colors in the photo aren't super great, but you get the idea, anyway! (And can you spy the "M" hiding in this room?)

Oh yeah, not wearing those two together before has been an oversight on your part ;), they look like they were meant for each other.
Also , if you want me to focus on your outfits you have to stop posting photos of your lovely house at the same time
(Yes, we do love a guy that puts things together)

I also immediately always want to comment on the house pics! I just want to say I love the cranberry red door and the peep of the black (barn?) door and how your accent pillows pick those colors up. This room has just really come together in an outstanding way. I see that M!

Love that moto jacket, and the whole outfit.

I love the ceiling fixtures. So cool. If not original, they are perfect for the age of the house. The console table really adds a lot of sparkle. And the outfit rocks as well.

MsMaven

Your living room is gorgeous--you've done a fabulous job with it.

You look great as usual, but today the house has me in awe.

Catnip

This outfit is very chic and the colors make it look expensive. I love your hairstyle... very flattering.

Sharp, Professional and Bombshell. I'm loving the simpler and more neutral - but still with lots of pizazz - Mary. And your new lounge looks just the same way.

Thanks for continuing to post your career look on YLF. They make the assortment of WIW's richer and more diverse.

Jaime

Fantastic outfit and love your living room with the light blue touches and fun art!

Joy

Love the outfit. You get lots of different looks with you camel skirt, but this is probably my favorite. Your living room looks relaxing and stimulating at the same time. The colors are wonderful.

Karie

Yes, that skirt and jacket do look fantastic together! And your living room is gorgeous. I love your use of color, and the wall of perfectly placed pictures is divine. I like the what appears to be a small antique mirror hanging amongst the modern pics.

Quietgirl

Oh, so WONDERFUL! TFS.

Golden

I love this outfit, it quite possibly is my fav! And your house is fabulous as well.

That jacket is so beautiful - love it. You look perfectly polished and professional and the pairing of skirt and jacket is wonderful. You take such great pictures And I said it before and I'll say it again, this living room of yours is beyond stunning - I love every single aspect of it . Definitely magazine -worthy.

Love this outfit! A great neutral look with interest from different shades and materials.
Love the finished room and funny that you hid an M in it...So happy to hear about new guy for you!

Lisa

Wow gorgeous living room! Can you come decorate my house? And I really like the browns here too. I don't think browns are easy to find but they are just so lovely.

Day Vies

I LOVE the aqua on the ceiling. I have been in love with that concept since I first saw it in the Caribbean.
When you do neutrals I never miss the color. You make it so darn visually interesting. I love the mix of textures and the cut of the jacket.

kkards

love the richness of these colors together.
and the living room....the colors reminded my of angie's grey and white post...they seem to have come from the same place!

Transcona Shannon

This outfit is now officially one of my Mary faves. It has such a richness about it. You need to repeat this many times.

And your living room is beyond stunning!

Runcarla

You are my work day outfit hero! This is subtley high end career wear that convey's 'I'm the boss' without looking hard. I bet it would look nice with a light blue top underneath.

Windchime

That jacket and skirt look like they were made to go together. As do the bag and the skirt. You wear these warm colors so well.

And your living room is magazine worthy. I love the soft blue on the ceiling. When you're done with your house, I want to hire you to consult on mine!

Firecracker (Sharan)

I love this outfit, Mary. You look beautiful in your perfectly coordinated, mixed neutrals. And I finally found the M, hidden in plain sight! I was looking for something more abstract--like the lines created by the V neck in the New York print or something.
