WIW: Shameless Karen Copy ;) - YouLookFab Forum

And here is the shameless copy of Karen's outfit that Angie featured sans the awesome hair and scarf The color combo is so lovely and summery, I had to copy!

I wore this for yesterday's school run. Still peaking 100F here. So the white linen pants (F&F) came to play again. I am not sure how I lived without white linen pants before! These are oh so comfy and cool! I paired it with my chartreuse tank top (H&M/old) for some more breezy comfort. It looks yellow in the pics ... so you will have to imagine it is chartreuse! Black sandals (H&M) and the striped clutch (old/no brand) to echo the black and white in Karen's outfit. Since it is too hot for a scarf here, I skipped that.

I think I love this outfit! My outfit reads more casual than Karen's, but it served my purpose. What do you say? Thanks for looking as always and all comments and suggestions are welcome! x

P.S In the shopping news, I bought these Patricia Green suede loafers in green. They are super comfy and I love green Can't wait to wear them with my BFs and dresses!

Don't you look great! I love your interpretation of Karen's outfit. I like the proportions of top with your fluid trousers. The bold clutch finishes things of beautifully.

Great new loafers! They look like a fabulous fit and the colour is luscious.

fab ---love the yellow with white. its interesting that you think this reads more casual than Karen's outfit, because to me it reads more business casual, but less tailored.

This is beautiful on you. I love the crisp striped clutch against the softness of the linen pants.

I say you look amazing as always. I just adore that clutch. It adds so much sass and pizzazz to everything you pair it with.

Gorgeous outfit. Like how the clutch finishes off the outfit.

Nicely done Neel. You look wonderful. I also thought that outfit was wonderful and wished I could copycat it. Chartreuse will be on my wish list for next year!

Neel

Thank you for your comments all! Glad you all like it as much as I did ^_^

Kkards - I thought it looked more casual because of the sandals and slouchy linen pants. Karen's is a more polished dressier look I would think.

Lovely. You do brights beautifully. I like the volume mix, here, too.

You are a great copy cat Neel! This looks fab!

This looks so nice on you Neel - great summer interpretation of Karen's outfit. Love the whole look and your new shoes look really great too, what a fun color!

Neel, you really have a knack for seeing a great look and making it your own. The neckline of that shirt is lovely on you, and the graphic black & white striped clutch pulls the whole look together beautifully.

You look stunning. The proportions and fit are awesome and the white/mustard/black combo is great!

Gorgeous Neel! This reads as quite polished to me and, really, both outfits (yours and Karen's) are casual. LOVE those linen pants on you; they must be wonderful with your heat as changeup from short bottoms.

Gracie

You look pretty sharp, those colors are winners on you. I specially like the pop of the black and white clutch, so fab.

Gorgeous Neel! In fact, I see your rendition of this outfit as dressier than Karen's - I guess because of the fluidity and the silky top. Chartreuse is a great colour on you. And - I LOVE those green driving shoes! Awesome

Great look--fun to see how you were inspired by the original. Love the color and crisp white.

Really great use of the black & white clutch with the simple but crisp outfit colors. Very inspired!

Good Morning lovely fabbers and thank you for the outfit love ^_^ This outfit goes in the repeat list

A gorgeous outfit on you, Neel--and from a gorgeous inspiration, of course. I like your linen trouser version; the silhouette is quite different from Karen's outfit, but it suits you beautifully. And those green loafers are so fun! Can't wait to see the different ways you will wear them.
