I've worn mine several times - with pleasure - although I'm very much aware that it may be considered age-inappropriate - but, it just makes me happy, so I wear it anyway!<br /> BTW - love those pics of you and Becky. Very cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wednesday-redfuschia-day-with-dkny-copycat#post-316418 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 05:00:05 +0000 MsMary 316418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG, Marley! That's hilarious! I love this skirt so much it was really hard to keep from getting it in black, too, but I resisted. More shots of this outfit here: <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-dinner-with-becky" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....with-becky</a> . I'll leave it to you to decide whether either one of us has any business leaving the house in that skirt! LOL</p> <p>And the pink jacket is going to work with me tomorrow, so stay tuned!</p> <p>Oh, and yesterday a colleague said I looked like I should be leading tours at Disneyland in the r/w/b outfit. I took it as a compliment! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wednesday-redfuschia-day-with-dkny-copycat#post-316416 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 04:57:00 +0000 Marley 316416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shut UP! You've got to be kidding me! You are NOT going to believe this, but I have that VERY-SAME-O.N.-SKIRT! Seriously. And if you can wear it, so can I, can't I? However, that pink jacket looks a HUNdred times better on you than it ever did on me. I'm glad that you got it. Love it with the red. Also, love the 1st outfit with the red and blue. You rock! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wednesday-redfuschia-day-with-dkny-copycat#post-316410 Fri, 18 Mar 2011 04:47:26 +0000 MsMary 316410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bumping for Marley because it's her pink jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wednesday-redfuschia-day-with-dkny-copycat#post-315862 Thu, 17 Mar 2011 17:23:18 +0000 amyreh 315862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What great finds on the blouse and skirt!!!

These are both fantastic. Your DKNY look is AWEsome, well done (*swoon*)!! I'm totally stopping by H&amp;M tomorrow in hopes of getting that fab blazer.</p> <p>UPDATE: Tried to go to H&amp;M, thought for sure there was one in Bellevue. But it's only in Seattle. Probably have to find another red blazer &gt;&lt; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wednesday-redfuschia-day-with-dkny-copycat#post-315642 Thu, 17 Mar 2011 05:44:46 +0000 MsMary 315642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aw, shucks! Thanks, ladies!</p> <p>Una, this isn't the seamed skirt. It's the Halogen Ponte Knit Pencil Skirt in "deep blue:" <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/halogen-ponte-knit-pencil-skirt/3175109?origin=keywordsearch&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ha.....sultback=0</a>. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wednesday-redfuschia-day-with-dkny-copycat#post-315623 Thu, 17 Mar 2011 04:54:39 +0000 CocoLion 315623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW! You are such an inspiration! You look like a model in outfit #1. I love that outfit #2 is more risky, the color choices are less traditional, the items... it looks so fun and not age inappropriate at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wednesday-redfuschia-day-with-dkny-copycat#post-315618 Thu, 17 Mar 2011 04:42:03 +0000 rae 315618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dying over that DKNY interpretation - so spot-on! And your waist looks tiny in #2. Way to show us that "Runway to Real Way" is possible! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wednesday-redfuschia-day-with-dkny-copycat#post-315612 Thu, 17 Mar 2011 04:31:37 +0000 catgirl 315612@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love both of these! Your first inspiration picture is so FAB, and you did a great job with both the outfits. So is this the cadet blue skirt? Is it more cobalt? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wednesday-redfuschia-day-with-dkny-copycat#post-315599 Thu, 17 Mar 2011 03:56:20 +0000 annagybe 315599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can I just say I love your take on the DKNY outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wednesday-redfuschia-day-with-dkny-copycat#post-315597 Thu, 17 Mar 2011 03:48:41 +0000 MsMary 315597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got this fab polka-dot blouse at the thrift store on Saturday, but when I put the outfit together for the weekend (with inspiration from Style Pantry: <a href="http://stylepantry.com/2011/03/06/polka-dot-blouse-sheer-maxi-skirt/" rel="nofollow">http://stylepantry.com/2011/03.....axi-skirt/</a> ) I wasn't all that happy with it. Turns out all it needed was the fuschia flower pin from Ann Taylor Loft!</p> <p>White button-down blouse with red dots: Vintage thrifted<br /> Cobalt blue pencil skirt: Halogen<br /> Red blazer: H&amp;M<br /> Wide red croc belt with gold buckle: Thrifted<br /> Fuschia flower pin: AT Loft<br /> Gold chain necklace: Vintage 80s from back in the day<br /> Blue pumps: Madden Girl<br /> Blue bag: B Makowsky </p> <p>The next look is something I've been working on for weeks! I tore the DKNY ad out of a magazine at the hair salon because I thought I could make this look work with Marley's pink Gap jacket from the swap. I found the actual DKNY skirt online, but it was $395 and even though I love it, I wasn't about to pay that much for a mini! I thought I was going to have to make do with my plain tan Halogen pencil skirt when I found this beauty on the clearance rack at Old Navy for $8.49! I'm also totally tickled that I found a scarf on eBay that's a darn close twin to the pricey DKNY scarf. Oh, and if you go to <a href="http://www.dkny.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.dkny.com</a> and watch the video introduction, you'll see the model is wearing red ankle-strap shoes!</p> <p>Pink corduroy jacket: Gap via swap<br /> Tan ruffled skirt: Old Navy<br /> Red button-down shirt: H&amp;M<br /> Scarf: Vintage via eBay<br /> Red clutch: Thrifted<br /> Red ankle-strap shoes: Nine West ca. 1998<br /> Black ribbon belt: From a dress long gone</p> <p>I know this is wildly age-inappropriate but I had a total blast putting it together! And I wore it to meet forum member Becky for dinner this evening! But that's another post... </p>
