WIW 9/27: Toffee, Tomato, White & Burgundy (with special guest)

I was so thrilled to see Angie's toffee, tomato, white and burgundy ensemble post on Friday as I was getting ready to leave for Seattle, because believe it or not I had almost all the elements in my suitcase already! I just tossed in my burgundy sweatshirt and I was ready to go!

I was having camera issues during the weekend so I didn't take any WIW photos, so I am borrowing this photo from one of Anna's posts, featuring special guest artist CocoLion, aka Denise, aka The Best SSIF Roomate in the World!

White jeans: Kut from the Kloth
Red plaid shirt: Old Navy
Burgundy sweatshirt: American Apparel
Toffee corduroy blazer: Olivia Moon
Toffee boots: Aldo

I carried my black/white/toffee Vince Camuto bag, but it's not in the photo.

Honestly, although I would have felt pretty fab in this at home, I felt the tiniest bit frumpy among all the fabulously chic Fabbers. In a perfect world, the burgundy sweatshirt would have been a fab chunky sweater, I think. But it was still fun to be able to put Angie's formula into almost-instant action!

What do you all think of my attempt?

I think you look great and not frumpy at all! I know what you mean though, as I felt the same way at the Boston meet-up last spring. But girlfriend, there is no way on God's green earth that you could ever look frumpy!

You look great! I'm so jealous of all the beautiful ladies who can carry off toffee. That plaid shirt is fun and youthful.

Gorgeousness X 2!

Mary - you couldn't look frumpy if you tried! Seriously. Both you and Denise look like a million bucks

No hint of frump. Toffee is a great neutral for you and the sweatshirt with the tomato plaid has WOW factor. The white jeans add a special touch. Gorgeous boots.

You were part of the Fun Tartan Party that day and did NOT look frumpy. (What are you smoking?)

I LOVED the white jeans tucked into those boots. Very Euro and on trend. You looked fabulous. xo

Both of you look strikingly chic and fabulous!

Mary!! I saw this in person and can vouch, ZERO frumpiness in sight. A chunky sweater would be a different look, probably wouldn't work with the blazer and the blazer really adds to the fun equestrian vibe here. I loved this outfit!
