Ylf, is that a zipper detail on the pockets? I love that you rolled the sleeves. My eye keeps being drawn to that bag.

You look gorgeous in your "faux suit", Shannon. What a lucky find to get two separate navy pieces that match so well. The tank is fabulous. I love the cheerful print.

Beautiful, Shannon! It's so great to see your smiling face in the morning. Lucky find with the pants -- they look fab on you.
I absolutely love how you have come full circle but with updates in your style. You are a perfect illustration of the "modern" in modern classic.

OHOHOH! The tank is such a happy statement piece and it is brilliant to the suit! Gorgeous! Love the tan shoes and the color block bag to it, they are both elevating the outfit even more(if possible at all:-)).

I just adore suits and this one really looks fab on you. I am loving the pop of orange, I think it adds a lively vibe to the classic proportions. It is a happy color for sure. Best accessory is your lovely smile.

I love the bright top with your navy suit. It's so modern and springy. What a lucky find to have the navy match in the two different pieces!

Oh - what a nice suiting look! Love you in orange too ! And what a crazy/lucky find that was to pick up two pieces in the same shade of navy. The pairing of your locket and stone necklace is great - really nice styling there.
Have a great day - looks wonderful out there today ! (I wouldn't know - being locked in my office for the morning - lol)

Ledonna - yes, there are silver zippers on the pockets of the blazer. Don't you love clothes that have built in bling?
Aquamarine - thanks for the hair compliment. I actually go this evening for the next shaping of the style. I'm looking forward to it starting to look more intentional.
El Cee - I bought the cropped pants without thinking of the blazer and then when I got them home, I thought ... "hmmm...wonder if they'll match..." a happy surprise.
Suz - it's funny how as soon as I stopped trying so hard, I seem to have returned to many of my former loves - blazer, interesting footwear, jewelry, statement handbags. I'm really going with what just feels good these days and am considering my style "organic".
Lyn - I didn't think of that - I guess this tank is indeed a statement piece.
Marianna, Colette, Robin, Gail, Sara - thank you so much for your lovely comments :)

Lisa - it's actually your jewelry wearing skills that had me try the two necklaces together. Have never done that before. So thank you :) Hoping to get out for a walk at lunch time to enjoy the beautiful day. It's so cold in my office right how that you could keep cheese fresh on top of my desk!

You look wonderful. I have a photo saved from your blog of you in a citron puffer that inspires me fashion-wise, and this is that same colorful vibe. Wish you could go shopping with me. I really like how you put things together!

*Big happy sigh* You look soooo good Shannon! Love the colours, the perfect proportions and the gorgeous accessories.

You always look so pulled-together, Shannon--I think your color sense is a big part of that. I've had a few of those serendipitous suit matchings; it's so satisfying when that happens. Gorgeous top and bag, too.

What a pretty way to wear a suit. That blouse brightens the look, and gives it such a modern elegance. The ankle pants and jacket are a great fit on you, too. Your shoes, bag, and accessories are spot on, as always.

goldenpig replied 8 years ago
You are just knocking it out of the park with every outfit! Love the navy suit and orange floral top together. Proportions are perfect. That's the way to do a suit! Oh and I also love finding unexpected exact matchy matchy pieces (usually matching my outfit with my purse), like my Kate Spade polka dot bag and VC polka dot skirt or the Brahmin striped bag and VC striped skirt, or the Marc Jacobs snake polka dot purse with the fish bow pumps (so sad you don't have those anymore!).

This look is spring sunshine on you! Love the way the top plays with the pants and jacket. Nice proportions and great colors. Plus your hair has edge and yet is classic; like you! Well done.
