WIWish- channeling Angie

So I am about 80% through my massive closet try on/clear out and have been thinking about a fun self-challenge to fill up that time slot. I decided to start by using Angie's outfit formulas. Anyhow, my first attempt (light blue with black and white) pretty much cracked me up. Perhaps you will see why.

light blue shirt - thrifted vintage
white jeans - thrifted current/elliott boyfriend
belt - thrifted Furla
shoes - thrifted Fausto Santini
necklace - Pamela Love via the RealReal, a long time ago

Anyhow, suggestions, comments, whatever always welcome!

Fun! That soft blue is beautiful on you -- and you've even got the pearls down! Makes me smile! Thanks for sharing.

Angie was right. Pale blue with black and white is a wonderful combination. Pretty. It sophisticated.

Bonnie

Well done!

Kathie

Your chunky pearls are very Angie! You nailed #3 in the blog post- even a similar shade of blue.

Icy blue is your color - great outfit! Love your necklace.

Sal

You look great and what a fine inspiration!! I love light blue on other people, but not on me for some reason.

Love the chunky black shoes to make this a Shevia look.

bridgie

Veteran

Very nice. I like the outfit on you, including the pearls especially.

Bijou

Veteran

So lovely and the Angie influence is evident. I love the colour of your shirt, it is a beautiful blue on you.

Mirjana

Wow, Shevia you look amazing. Light blue and white is beautiful combination, and black accent perfect. Love, love so much.

nicely done. this is a lesson to me on how to wear black/darks with pastels.

My gosh that blue is sooo pretty on you, and the black accents keep it connected to your gorgeous deep eyes. Angie inspired but authentically Jaime. Loves it!!

So cute! Can I just say that I think the black accents absolutely make this? YLF.

Gosh, your head was not showing up on the Forum's first page-and I was convinced it is a post from Angie in person-hah, brilliant- you did it so well!:-)

It's such a shame you aren't going anywhere, looking that amazing! I love this combination, and it's the 2nd day in a row that I am very drawn to black in the mix. Yesterday's guest blogger had a great combination of neutrals spiked with black that caught my eye.
This is a super good color combo for you! Wear it outside, first chance you get!

KILLER GORGEOUS as always, Jaime! Light blue, black and white are heavenly with your hair.

Humbled to be channelled.....and wasn't I wearing this when we met in Seattle....but with white accents ?

So nice and I love your pearls.

Just the right blend! These colors are fabulous on you. You have brightened my day just by seeing this post today !

This looks great on you!

madeline

YLF! That blue really suits you, compliments both your hair color and your complexion. Great pairing with the white and black too. And of course the Angie pearls are the finishing touch.

Did it crack you up because you look like so much like Angie?
I really like it.
I would give the sleeves a roll, maybe.

CarolS When I added the pearls I actually laughed at myself, glad it works!
Joy Thank you. I am gaining new appreciation for the magic of Angie's formulas!
Bonnie - Thank you!
Kathie - The idea to add black and white is genius.
slim cat - Yes, I have realized that my light blue is a more bright, saturated color (used to be paler, when I was darker).
Sal - Thanks! I think the trick to light blue is that it is actually a lot of different colors.
bridgie - This is one of the first outfits I don't feel overdone in pearls, thank you!
Bijou - Thank you, this is my most Angie outfit ever I think.
Mirjana - I am very flattered!
UmmLila - I very much hope we will meet next time. Because this too will pass, right?
Column - Blushing
kkards - and a lesson to me to play with Angie's formulas more often.
torontogirl - Thank you! That is exactly what I was after.
Janet - Yes the black makes it me, even if Angie's idea.
lyn67 - Haha! That is fantastic.
Laurie - I will!
Joyce B - Thank you!
taylor - And you made my day with that comment!
hereforthecake - Thank you!
madeline - Yes, I do think this is my best light blue, thank you!
smittie - Yes, that is exactly why I found myself so funny. And will try the sleeve roll next time, thanks!
Angie - How did you ever remember that? I found it! (You and Google never forget!)

Oh my - I LOVE this! The black belt and shoes add a cool edge to the whole outfit.
