(it’s hard to tell from my photo….)</p> <p><div><br /></div><div>Something about the shorter length makes you appear taller, your legs look super long. &nbsp;It’s a flattering length for you! &nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-autumn-tones-in-spring/page/2#post-2259243 Thu, 14 Apr 2022 10:53:41 +0000 Anonymous 2259243@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it!

You look great in that color and the fit is perfect.

That cranberry color is gorgeous, and looks great on you. I love how you've styled it too, with the plaid boots (be still, my heart :). You will get so much use out of this dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-autumn-tones-in-spring/page/2#post-2258882 Mon, 11 Apr 2022 23:02:21 +0000 Laurie 2258882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super terrific outfit, Suz! You look amazing in the above the knee dress with tights and accessories. That was a wonderful gift. I give a couple of friends my clothes from time to time, things that I think they would love, and look better in that I do.&nbsp;<br />Those are great colors with your hair. Great to see you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-autumn-tones-in-spring/page/2#post-2258843 Mon, 11 Apr 2022 17:30:49 +0000 Cardiff girl 2258843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks lovely on you.

Very kind and perceptive comments. You are right -- this burgundy is on the purplish side (which works for me). It's hard to see the difference in tone in these photos between the cranberry sweater and the dress, but they are slightly different but close enough to work (I think, anyway!). The boots are actually more of a blue red but they also tie in well enough, I think.&nbsp;</p> <p>It is a super comfortable dress. I would purchase another from this company for sure.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Joy</b>, your outfit sounds gorgeous! I'm going to check out the Icelandic company you mention. I love the idea of a merino dress as duster -- that would work SO well for me.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-autumn-tones-in-spring#post-2258525 Sat, 09 Apr 2022 03:01:18 +0000 Carla 2258525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is beautiful, Suz… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-autumn-tones-in-spring#post-2258523 Sat, 09 Apr 2022 02:56:55 +0000 Brooklyn 2258523@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous column of colour.

I’m an Autumn. The Burgundy you’re wearing has a cool undertone, &amp; looks great on you. The entire outfit really suits you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-autumn-tones-in-spring#post-2258384 Fri, 08 Apr 2022 02:48:50 +0000 Zaeobi 2258384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous column of colour - the burgundy shade is just right on you, not too dark! </p> <p>Not so sure I can see the difference between the cranberry &amp; burgundy on my monitor, but the length works well with your cardigan. Best of all, though? The pockets &amp; hood </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-autumn-tones-in-spring#post-2258382 Fri, 08 Apr 2022 02:38:10 +0000 Anonymous 2258382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz,I love this outfit. &nbsp;I haven’t tried much burgundy for spring, but I am wearing my Dales of Iceland wool dress as a duster with blue jeans and a light yellow green top (think new tiny leaves) which matches the color in the wool dress. &nbsp;I am also wearing a silver leaf pendant on a silver chain which is usually a fall accessory but reminds me of those little new leaves. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-autumn-tones-in-spring#post-2258379 Fri, 08 Apr 2022 02:31:08 +0000 BlueJay 2258379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great gift! So cute! I can't believe how everything matches so well. I love your plaid boots!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-autumn-tones-in-spring#post-2258377 Fri, 08 Apr 2022 02:10:00 +0000 unfrumped 2258377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So fab! I love that length with tights and boots- especially in monochrome.<br /> I have had a habit of trying to keep “ cold spring “ spring-y colors and warm fall plus true spring and fall but am finding it perhaps too complicated, and too many different items, especially in retirement, so am meandering toward ways to get more use out of same basic pieces with different support acts and accessories, and under layers/ over layers. No wardrobe news flash there, but still a shift in thinking/ buying for me.<br /> The aha moment is more about, the more I really love a wardrobe item, the more I will want to keep wearing it and find ways for it to work for different weather.<br /> Also, it can take more intentional brainstorming, shopping, and list items, to get the season- enhancing items that make , say, a fall item look actually springy, or vice versa , in ways that feel satisfying. Sometimes it’s an unexpected bit of color or detail that gives the right vibe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-autumn-tones-in-spring#post-2258372 Fri, 08 Apr 2022 01:14:17 +0000 Jaime 2258372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The perfect short dress you didn't even know you needed!
