WOW! and the NAS bag... I'm so envy.. eh eh loved the way you paired with the LBD letting the bag shine!</p> <p>DD is lovely! What a great style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shiny-some-august-outfits#post-88857 Wed, 26 Aug 2009 07:28:50 +0000 Christie 88857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm curious ... did anyone answer the question if these are cap sleeves? I like them on you, whatever they are. :)</p> <p>The vest over the sleeveless is such a good look with style and structure for a summer evening, and a great way to wear a black vest in summer. Good idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shiny-some-august-outfits#post-88846 Wed, 26 Aug 2009 05:37:58 +0000 fathenry 88846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Love that black dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shiny-some-august-outfits#post-88736 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 23:30:35 +0000 Kellee 88736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shiny</p> <p>I love that black dress on you.<br /> A dress length right above the knee works great for you.<br /> And wow what great legs!</p> <p>I agree, I think a fitted dress is a home run for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shiny-some-august-outfits#post-88715 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 21:43:08 +0000 medusa 88715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shiny, great outfits! You're doing great things with long necklaces lately. And your daughter is too cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shiny-some-august-outfits#post-88288 Sun, 23 Aug 2009 17:18:18 +0000 Angie 88288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely office appropriate, especially with flats. I can’t believe you hardly wear my very favourite frock! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shiny-some-august-outfits#post-88284 Sun, 23 Aug 2009 16:56:51 +0000 shiny 88284@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all. </p> <p>Angie, now I feel bad that I rarely wear this black dress. You've got me wondering why that is. </p> <p>I nearly wore it to the office last week. It was 100 degrees out with very high humidity. I had it paired with that necklace, a cami, the new NAS purse, and pretty textured pumps in a reddish-brown. But, I changed last minute, due to a major case of the doubts. Then of course as I'm leaving the office - sweltering in my jeans - I see a coworker wearing a similar LBD and looking cool, stylish and comfortable. </p> <p>Would you consider this office appropriate - if it had a cami underneath? And perhaps a cardigan or jacket over top for the AC? Or does it show off too many curves? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shiny-some-august-outfits#post-88280 Sun, 23 Aug 2009 16:36:09 +0000 Kristen 88280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You and DD are so cute! I love that simple, elegant dress -- and the new bag is fabulous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shiny-some-august-outfits#post-88279 Sun, 23 Aug 2009 16:25:03 +0000 Angie 88279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER black frock! One of my favs on you so far. (And you’ve showed us a LOT of outfits). Sophisticated and simple. I think I like you best in dresses :0) </p> <p>Love DD’s outfit. It’s fun to dress like a teen when you're a teen. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shiny-some-august-outfits#post-88237 Sun, 23 Aug 2009 13:10:20 +0000 Sihaya 88237@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shiny - wonderful as always. You look just like a sister to your gorgeous DD's. I love the black on black - very flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shiny-some-august-outfits#post-88229 Sun, 23 Aug 2009 10:36:46 +0000 RoseandJoan 88229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shiny, I love your new bag. </p> <p>With regards to the sleeves on the dress they remind me of sleeves on muscle vests but in this instance they are v. elegant.</p> <p>I am always amazed by how flattering the vest look with jeans appears to be on everyone. Dawn wore a flower on hers which looked lush and your daughter looks very glamourous grunge in the photos.</p> <p>Was the concert the one you mentioned on your birthday thread? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shiny-some-august-outfits#post-88218 Sun, 23 Aug 2009 03:26:03 +0000 Danja 88218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Shiny, that black dress hugs you in all the right places. You look fabulous!<br /> Your concert outfit looks very hip, I love the dark grey vest with a black top.<br /> And your daughter looks so wonderfully youthful, she is ready for the Fall to start. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shiny-some-august-outfits#post-88147 Sat, 22 Aug 2009 17:25:36 +0000 Ana 88147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You two look fabulous! I love the black dress and adding white accents in for a more summery look is a great idea. DD looks really adorable in her jacket and hat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shiny-some-august-outfits#post-88137 Sat, 22 Aug 2009 16:31:55 +0000 marianna 88137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look utterly adorable in everything. I love how the black dress shows off your lovely figure. And you and your daughter seem very much alike! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shiny-some-august-outfits#post-88112 Sat, 22 Aug 2009 15:08:22 +0000 shiny 88112@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been lazy about taking photos. Also I have been content to recycle outfits over and over, since we're having such a short summer. At any rate, it continues to be the "Summer of the Dress" for me. </p> <p>1) <a href="http://s386.photobucket.com/albums/oo309/lookingfabat43/july%2009/?action=view&#038;current=august002.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s386.photobucket.com/al.....ust002.jpg</a></p> <p>You may remember I posted a pic of this ATL LBD last summer - wearing it with bronze me-too's and a silver necklace my DH gave me for my bday - back when I was packing for Paris. So this dress is not new, but I was inspired to style it with this ON necklace and the beige/gold sandals. So simple, yet cool for the nearly 100% humidity we had yesterday. </p> <p>Question: I'm curious, would you call these cap sleeves? </p> <p>2) Same outfit but wanted to show off one of my new NAS bags: <a href="http://s386.photobucket.com/albums/oo309/lookingfabat43/july%2009/?action=view&#038;current=august003.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s386.photobucket.com/al.....ust003.jpg</a></p> <p>So excited about this bag!!! I love it. I already wore it to work this week (didn't take a pic of that outfit). I suspect I'll get a lot of use out of it. It's a good neutral. Thrilled that it goes well with black - don't you think? And I think the scale is just right for little old me - agree?</p> <p>I was a little dubious about the gold bling but since I'm seeing so much gold out there for fall, I figured it's okay to have a bag with shiny gold hardware. </p> <p>3) Outfit I wore to an outdoor concert on a chilly summer night:<br /> <a href="http://s386.photobucket.com/albums/oo309/lookingfabat43/july%2009/?action=view&#038;current=july048.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s386.photobucket.com/al.....uly048.jpg</a></p> <p>It's a variation on outfits you've seen me wear before, but I kinda liked the combo of layering black over black. (This vest incidentally has a white back to it). </p> <p>Bonus pick of my DD - who was thrilled you all approved of her pattern mixing outfit. :-)</p> <p>4) Here's DD in her new jacket - and hat:<br /> <a href="http://s386.photobucket.com/albums/oo309/lookingfabat43/july%2009/?action=view&#038;current=july001.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s386.photobucket.com/al.....uly001.jpg</a></p> <p>Sorry it's not the best pose to see the fit. Isn't the lining, which you can see at the cuff, a cute touch?</p> <p>And that hat! We saw it and knew instantly it was for DD. She loves zippers. </p>
