Eclectic Joy

WIW: Red. white and Blue-ish

July 1, 2013

Here are some recent outfits with a loose take on red, white and blue.
1/2. Well, pink and coral are in the red color family and the top is a bluish grey? This is the first time I've tried rolling these jeans and I think it may be a miss. I tried again with a lower, wider roll in #2. Does this work?
3. I think these are the Kut Catherine Boyfriends, EF tank, Nine West cardi, Calvin Klein belt, Dr Scholls flats.
4-6. VC cold shoulder top over white tank, Kut Diana skinny jeans, VC blazer, belt from The Rack, bag thrifted or consignment, Cole Haan flats
7. For Lantana, the striped Nautical tank with clams (rolled Kut Diana's). Thank you for the suggestion!
8/9. Tahari navy dress, Cole Haan sandals, Ambition blazer
I'd love your suggestions and comments for what is working, or not so much.

    I love the RW&B.  I especially love #3 & #7.

    I think the blush jeans look better full length. The cold shoulder top looks really nice on you, and I like the dress too!

    I was writing a post about red, white and blue an hour ago! How appropriate.

    Joy, the muted colours in the first outfit look great! And rolling the blush jeans works well.

    I love all your white jeans outfits! Of course I do :). The Diana's look great rolled! I love you in the Catherine's!!! So fab! And you wear a classic sheath as beautifully as Suz! We have two Queen Sheath Dresses on this forum!

    Tahari navy dress is magical on you both with and without the blazer. I also really like the striped nautical tank with white clams and red flats.

    The cold-shoulder top is really Fab Joy.
    I prefer the jeans longer as in pic 2.
    The navy dress is WOW!

    Joy, you never cease to wow me. Love the white jeans (wow!) Love the cold shoulder top (wow!) Love the sheath dress (wow!) I really like the first outfit too, though *think* I would prefer the pants unrolled - but that is just me.

    Thank you all for helping me out with these outfits. They are not all traditionally red, white and blue. I kind of like to play with shades of the colors, but the first outfit is a stretch, I know.
    It's interesting what can be seen in a photo that doesn't register when looking in a mirror...like the rolling of those blush jeans. Angie, I'm glad you think I can get away with a little rolling as it will extend the wearing season. Today was unseasonally cool but they looked a little heavy for summer at full length.
    And I love both pairs of Kuts, and a sheath shape is my favorite type of dress.

    Joy ...love #4 ...so breezy. A bit looser up top than I usually see on you. #5, 3 close close faves.

  • Liz A. replied 11 years ago

    My faves are 4-9. Is that helpful? Lol

  • Susie replied 11 years ago

    Gosh these all look great! I especially like 3 (we are shoe twins!), 4, 7, and 8.

  • Debbie replied 11 years ago

    I haven't read the comments but I love everything. Several of these I am going to coy!

  • Jaime replied 11 years ago

    Great set of outfits Joy! I love the white jeans with all the options and the dress is perfect on you!
