Love the black leather jacket over both dress and jeans!<br />Waving to my fellow Melissa boot twin! And I know where you were in #1. We must get together sometime--when is there going to be a Bay Area YLF meetup?<br />I don't see any problem with the jeans in #2. I love how your specs coordinated with your jeans.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiw-from-feb-2013#post-900441 Sat, 06 Apr 2013 05:15:38 +0000 Kiwichik 900441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love the first outfit - the bag &amp; boots are the icing on the cake. I think you may be right about wearing a longer top with the skinnies however I suspect the angle of the photo probably emphasises the crotch wrinkles more than they would have appeared &nbsp; IRL. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiw-from-feb-2013#post-900291 Sat, 06 Apr 2013 01:45:27 +0000 celia 900291@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ These are two very nice outfits. <br />I like the jacket with the dress and the purple bag really added the perfect amount of color.<br />In outfit #2 I like the fit of the shirt and I think the creases on the pants are from the way you are standing because otherwise they seem to fit you very well.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiw-from-feb-2013#post-900203 Sat, 06 Apr 2013 00:11:12 +0000 Suz 900203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ So great to see you posting again. I don't find the first outfit too Goth. I really love the crossbody bag, and it's true that it added just the right hit of colour.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiw-from-feb-2013#post-900186 Fri, 05 Apr 2013 23:52:02 +0000 Isabel 900186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look great ! &nbsp;I really like the different textures and the purlple ( blue ? ) shirt under the dress in #1.<br /><br />I would agree that maybe a longer shirt/top would work a little better. But to be honest, this seems to be personal taste since I see this a lot. I like to get skinnies 1 to 2 sizes bigger. I then have the waist taken in. I get the "skinny" look with out all the crotch, hip issues. &nbsp;But then again, I am over 20 years older than you !&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiw-from-feb-2013#post-900141 Fri, 05 Apr 2013 23:06:50 +0000 Aida 900141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I don't see #1 as too goth either, none of the goths I knew would wear a scuba jacket :} I like the rich purples added to that one. The tee in #2 looks like a good roomy tee; anything that has extra fabric from roominess is going to give folds like that, I don't think it's something to worry about unless it's something way more severe than we can see from the photo. LOVE the addition of the white purse in outfit #2! Nice to see you post and like Una, I feel lucky to have met you so I can picture your lovey face and smile&nbsp;with these ^^ https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiw-from-feb-2013#post-900137 Fri, 05 Apr 2013 23:03:21 +0000 Nicole D 900137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ That leather jacket fits you perfectly! &nbsp;I agree, the bright bag takes it out of goth territory. &nbsp;Nice youthful style.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiw-from-feb-2013#post-900134 Fri, 05 Apr 2013 23:00:17 +0000 Caro in Oz 900134@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love how you have a blue top &amp; bag to break up the black. I usually wear a longer top with skinnies too. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiw-from-feb-2013#post-899918 Fri, 05 Apr 2013 19:32:27 +0000 catgirl 899918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ i wear most of my skinnies with longer tops! &nbsp;I love the formula though. &nbsp;And the first outfit isn't too goth to my eye. &nbsp;Nice to have met you so I can picture your gorgeous face here. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2-wiw-from-feb-2013#post-899917 Fri, 05 Apr 2013 19:30:45 +0000 Sylvie 899917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ One of my family members came for a visit in February which means... I have photos of what I wore. <br /><br />1) Black dress over purple t-shirt, grey tights, black Melissa laceups, black moto, purple leather crossbody, sunglasses.<br /><br />I didn't realize how goth-y #1 looked until I saw the photo.&nbsp; I'm glad I was wearing the bright purple bag to add in some color and next time I'll wear lilac tights.&nbsp;&nbsp; Tall boots + dress is definitely one of my favorite outfit formulas.<br /><br />2) Red jeans, Zara sparkly grey skull t-shirt, black moto, white/black spectator crossbody, red glasses.&nbsp; I don't remember the shoes - I think I was wearing grey or red ankle boots.<br /><br />I'm not thrilled about the crotch wrinkling on these jeans - maybe I should stick to wearing them with longer tops?&nbsp; Also, I sized up on the t-shirt but that makes it look weird and wrinkly as I lean to the side. I think the only thing that's saving this outfit is the purse.<br /><br />Constructive criticism is welcome as I experiment with my style.<br /><br />4/8 update: Just wanted to say thank you so much for your feedback and comments.&nbsp; I didn't get a chance to respond over the weekend and didn't want to bump the thread.<br /><br />
