SWAP Combos - Part 1

Over the next few days, I want to finish up my SWAP 2008 posts with pictures of the combinations that are possible using the different garments.

Today, I will start with the all the combos based the sand wool crepe top:

Sand wool crepe top (V1050) + sand wool crepe skirt (V1050) + beige wool crepe coat (V5630)
This picture cracks me up. I guess I must be daydreaming about all the possible SWAP combos I can create with my new wardrobe!

Next up, all the combinations with the green herringbone top:

This is what I absolutely LOVE about SWAP, seeing all the possibilities put togther! You look great in everything. The color on that terra cotta skirt is amazing. Can't wait to see what's up tomorrow!

Shannon,
The combos are great. I especially like the skirts. You know, I see more of an Audrey Hepburn whimsy in you than Jackie. Similiar styles though. Anyway, I'm waiting for the dresses!!! Everything is so chic, so tastefully elegant, so...so grown-up!

Looking forward to the next post.

Beautiful! I love all the combos but I think that at least, so far, the Chanel-ish suit is my favorite!

I must say that this is so inspiring. I love seeing everything together. I'm in awe of how you've thought it all through beforehand.

I especially like that teh coat lining matches your hair so perfectly. You are just SO well co-ordinated!

What an incredibly classy SWAP! So many lovely pieces, and I really like that the fabrics are complimentary, not matchy-matchy. Way to go!

I think it is so kewl that even though your wardrobe seems like just a combination of suits that they break up and work so well with the other pieces. I know a lot of time and effort went into making that work and it shows! It really shows!

I think of all the separates, that full skirt is my absolute favorite. The entire wardrobe is absolutely brilliant though. I am beyond impressed.
