WIW: Angie's Olive and Pink ensemble...with Lavender??

April 3, 2015

Does this work? Especially the lavendar blazer? This was not a ROG outfit.
Photos 1/2 show the RL lavendar jacket with the olive H&M jeans, rayon cream and olive scarf, Target blush tee and tank under it, and brushy nude Bandolino ballet flats. This blazer got mixed reviews last spring.
3. Is without a jacket. Does this side semi-tuck work? 4. Is with a blush Halogen blazer, tee semitucked. 5. Shows the blush blazer and tucked tee.
How should I wear this outfit, if at all? Are some of the pieces not working at all? I welcome your thoughts and ideas.

    YES. It works. Lovely. 

    Try tying the scarf muffler style. More modern.

    Thanks, Angie. I'll do it right away. It's a cold rainy day.

    I like it! Super pretty color combo and I like how the long side of the top lines up with the length of the blazer.

    Thank you, Meredith. I guess I've been inspired by Easter Eggs.

    I think it is lovely! I adore that lavender blazer on you!

    Fun combo Joy! Agree with the idea of a muffler scarf tie. Love the jacket version and sans-jacket with the side tuck as in #3.

    It works really well. I like the lavender jacket and the side tuck.

    Gorgeous! Is that lavender? It looks like a deeper shade I could wear. I love it.

    Well done! Now I have to go look up muffler style...

  • Tanya replied 9 years ago

    Totally works!  Unexpected and fresh.

  • Joy replied 9 years ago

    Una, this seems the only shade of lavender I can wear and it is more midtone than pastel. I'll bet this shade would be fab on you.
    Thank you all for your comments and stating your preferences. It helps to know what works. How about the blush jacket?

    I love the lavender jacket on you, and the scarf is great. The olive pants look almost black on my screen, and I found myself wishing they were lighter, but computers can distort colors, I know.

    I think lavender works perfectly here. Love the side semi-tuck!

  • Joy replied 9 years ago

    Tulle, the olive is very dark. I wish it were lighter too. Maybe a lighter pair should go onto my shopping list.
    Thank you, Sveta. A side semituck has become a favorite lately.

    I like this combination very much! I have no clue what a muffler scarf tie looks like?
