Just curious...what do you think of this look?

I like the pants with that shirt and shoes but not too sure about the color of hose!!!

Probably if I were to see someone wear it, it would look diff but I'd have to see it IRL. Everything else though is cute!

sage · Dooney & Bourke

I love it, but then I have an extreme affection for purple hose.

I just can't get into the colored hose thing, but man, I'll never say never. By the end of the winter I may be the queen of strange colored hose. Love the pants & shoes though

Grace · Dooney & Bourke

Ok, what about neutral tights with cropped pants and heels? I'll probably never have the balls to do it but for some reason I like it....

I think it would be cute with a neutal color hose or wit ha different shirt. the teal/purple combo is just so bright!

I agree with this. The concept is cute but the purple and teal combo is too much.

the tights and top color combo is bizarre, esp. w/printed shoes. i like the overall shape of the look, just not the colors--they make me think of the artful dodger for some reason.

Like bumblebee said. The overall look in general is good, but I am totally not a fan of all those wacky colors! I mean, what's supposed to be the attention grabber - the turquoise shirt, the fuchsia hose, the leopard shoes? I'm on overload!

I totally agree. Way too much. I like the teal, hate the purple, and really hate those shoes.

Alikat · Kate Spade

Way too much!

I don't like the tights very much. I could see some girls pulling them off with a plain mod dress or something, but not really with that outfit.

I do like the shoes, though, I just bought them in dalmation print.

Lilykind · Hermes

I think there are 5 girls in the world who could walk out wearing that without getting weird looks for it (I am not one of them for sure...heh),

I feel like if you're going to mix 489070 colors together, there has to be a uniting element to explain why they're all in the mix (like they're complimentary or they're all earthy or something). There is no uniting element here...you've got gold/black shoes with purple-y pink hose and brown striped pants and a turquoise top. I mean it sounds like she didn't look in the mirror before leaving.
