Not so sure how I feel about plaid.

    Maybe with a different skirt: the faded purple isn’t doing it for me. Black or canary yellow might be cool. And a scarf and/or hat to switch things up a little.

  2. The purple isn’t actually faded, that’s a graphic issue (low rez and all that). It’s a very bright purple. Or maybe you’re referring to the hue?

    I love plaid. :) But, I don’t like this outfit combo at all. The skirt is business and plaid can rarely be business especially with a denim jacket.

  4. Kelly says:

    Love it! Yes, I would!

  5. Alison says:

    Love the plaid under the jacket. So cute and casual! I love that the blouse is so long, too. But the skirt… Blah! What is that? The color looks absolutely 80’s. I think some skinny jeans would be cute, but I have yet to find any that are truly modest.

  6. Alison says:

    Oh, and the shoes. Haven’t we seen those in a Look of the Day before? I don’t see how they go with any part of the outfit. Too structured.

    Christa, have you ever seen Project Runway. It’s not necessarily a great show, but it is a lot of fun to watch the designers create outfits from scratch in a day. I thought of you when I was watching it. The lifetime website has a few of the full episodes if your family, like mine, doesn’t have TV.

    • No I haven’t, though I’ve heard a ton about it from my designer friends. Yea, we don’t have a TV (shocking, I know lol) but sometimes things are made available online. I’ll check out that site you suggested.

    I don’t see plaid, I see checks. I wouldn’t wear this outfit but my daughter would and she would look GREAT in it.

  8. Laedelas says:

    I love plaid! Not crazy about the color scheme, though.

  9. Candra says:

    This is just my style! It’s unexpected and fun…I’d definitely wear it. Even though I don’t usually like ankle boots, these are cute.

  10. Amanda Cone says:

    LOVE it! Except I would pair it with flats, not ankle boots.

  11. Katie says:

    I’m with many of the other commentors – from the waist up YES I would wear it. It would be fun to wear to a casual dinner out with friends. I even like the ankle boots. However, I’d pair it with khakis or a different color, more casual A-line skirt.

  12. Rebecca says:

    yes I agree with Amanda I would wear flats instead and a longer skirt probably denim or maybe a turquoise or blue skirt of some kind and the shirt and the jacket.

  13. Beth Ann says:

    I like the general ‘look’ of the outfit. I would wear that jacket and blouse for a more modern look (slightly old fashioned is my favorite!) but not those heels (I like heels but the more classic ones better suit my style, basic pump, peep-toe, casual slingbacks, not ‘bootie’-type shoes or really high heels), or the skirt if it was that length. Colors are all good. :) Love the colors…

  14. LeeLee says:

    Eh… not thrilled. Separately the pieces are fine, but this is just not an outfit I would put together.

  15. Jessica says:

    LOVE the top half!

  16. Denae says:

    I personally don’t like this outfit. All of it separate, yes. Together, no. I actually love each piece, but together it doesn’t “flow”. It would be better with out the jean jacket, my personal opinion. The shoes are cute, but I wouldn’t be able to walk in them.

  17. AnnaChristie says:

    I think I would like the outfit better if the jacket was the plaid pattern. I think plaid is a heavy enough statement that it needs something more durable to pull it off.

  18. Greta R. says:

    I’m not crazy about this outfit. I might like it better if the skirt was a gray or black.

  19. daring2bdifferent says:

    I like each article of clothing individually but not paired together; if each piece was separate with something else, I would like it a lot better!

  20. I like plaid but never wear it anymore. Too many years in Catholic school plaid skirts made me allergic to plaid. But this looks is pretty.

  21. Mrs. Price says:

    I love the concept and the color. The actual outfit I think is hideous.

  22. Elyse says:

    Hm…not crazy about it. I like the jacket, and the skirt would be cute in a less conspicuous color, like gray or a dark green, but the outfit is a little too “out there” for me.

  23. Not into plaid, I feel like I did that all in the late 80s and early 90s…SO done with it!

    I love the jacket and the skirt, but maybe not together?

  24. Beatrice says:

    I like the jacket and I like the skirt but not together, and plaid just is not me.

  25. jubejube says:

    Only if I had her legs.lol! seriously it’s gorgeous …the shoes just do not go with the rest!!!!

  26. jubejube says:

    the collar needs to be opened up and touches of sparkly jewellery added, but it is an outfit that a variety of ladies cud take and add their own touches to it… it has a lot of potential but needs individual, unique touches to make it ones own.

  27. Caroline says:

    Aside from the ankleboots…heck yeah. I would replace them with black and white peep toe pumps.
