Wow! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007931 Thu, 28 Feb 2019 11:08:27 +0000 Mainelady 2007931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely stunning! Joy your DVF skirt is beautiful and I love it with the long jacket. No, the jacket is not too long for you (said the 5’2” woman who decided to start wearing dusters). Your scarf is the perfect accessory for your pattern mixing and you know I love those blingy earrings! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007879 Thu, 28 Feb 2019 08:22:26 +0000 Katerina 2007879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, this outfit is a masterpiece! I want it right now, please send it to me :-)</p> <p>Stunning combo - elegant, interesting pattern mix, gorgeous colours with your hair (which looks beautiful btw) and I love the dressy dramatic elements. The lenght of the jacket is on trend and looks great with the skirt and the blouse tucked in. You look so beatiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007858 Thu, 28 Feb 2019 05:06:57 +0000 Anonymous 2007858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Firecracker, that is funny. I have never been taller than 5'4, but petite sizes do not work for me very often. I am too short to wear the bigger silhouettes. Patterns and accessories that I would like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007839 Thu, 28 Feb 2019 04:15:30 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2007839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Wow, Joy, this outfit is stunning. It is so beautiful and polished, and I love the unexpected details of the earrings and the patterned skirt (I imagine many women would create a similar version of this outfit with a plain black skirt). The jacket is not too long, to my eye, and I am smiling that you were inspired by Gryffin! I like your scarf and bag, and personally, I do not miss red booties with this outfit. I like the long leg line created by the black ones. <br /></div><div>In all the posts I've seen from you, I would not have guessed your height. I figured you for at least 5'5", perhaps taller. Kind of funny, huh?<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007833 Thu, 28 Feb 2019 04:03:05 +0000 Anonymous 2007833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shevia, that is high praise.

Or maybe it is Griffin's influence - which is plenty good enough reason to like it. One of your best (along with many others!). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007772 Thu, 28 Feb 2019 02:00:32 +0000 SarahD8 2007772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the pattern mix!!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007750 Thu, 28 Feb 2019 01:01:38 +0000 delurked 2007750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice.

It all makes sense.</p> <p>Thank you, Suntiger and Christina F.&nbsp; I am so glad the pattern mixing is ok.&nbsp; </p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007545 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 20:40:08 +0000 Angie 2007545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pattern mixed, light accents, bells a whistles, drama, layering interest, and above all - ECLECTIC. That's our delightful <b>Joy.&nbsp;</b></p> <p>The length of the jacket is very now, and you absolutely pull it off here. The proportions work well. The visible waistline of the skirt pulls the eye back upward, which visually shortens the jacket.&nbsp;</p> <p>The scarf and skirt are KILLER together.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007538 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 20:36:14 +0000 Christina F. 2007538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is very elegant!

The jacket length looks better from the side than the front, which could be due to skirt shape or the jacket shape. From the side I can tell its nice and drapy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007525 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 20:13:56 +0000 Anonymous 2007525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Taylor and Suz!&nbsp; I almost bought that skirt at full price and could not believe my luck when I found it like new in a thrift store.&nbsp; The heavy matte silk is a year round fabric for me and it does not wrinkle.&nbsp; It is not quite a pencil skirt but drapes close to the body.&nbsp; I have always worn that jacket with pants and the length is ok, but usually skirts could use a shorter topper. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007457 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 18:26:57 +0000 Suz 2007457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pattern mix absolutely works, Joy! And it seems extremely you. I love the skirt -- it's gorgeous!&nbsp;</p> <p>I don't think the jacket is too long in this outfit (with the pencil skirt) but it might look that way in other pairings.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007456 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 18:25:05 +0000 taylor 2007456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Joy, you look beautiful . I think the jacket length is perfect!<br /> I love the black and white with pop of red . FAB! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007449 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 18:19:30 +0000 Anonymous 2007449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Cardiff girl. I agree that the pop of red was needed. Earlier I had on a black and white wide striped scarf. This one with the red looked so much better. I wish I had red booties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007426 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 17:45:54 +0000 Cardiff girl 2007426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice Joy,l like the patterned skirt which breaks up the black and the pop of red from the scarf lifts the black too.Nicely done. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-challenge-day-3#post-2007390 Wed, 27 Feb 2019 15:53:14 +0000 Anonymous 2007390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Days 1/2 were filling a thread, so I started this new one for the rest of the challenge.<br /> Our weather is cold with an icy fog. Today’s activities include shopping and a chocolate social tonight.<br /> 1. This outfit is me because it is s bit dressy with the heavy silk DVF skirt. I was the dressiest there.<br /> 2. High low with EF silk top, Aquatilia booties, and long jacket ( inspired by Griffin), also Kate Spade bag. Low because the skirt and scarf are thrifted.<br /> 3. Lots of silk<br /> 4. Feet felt warm and stable on refrozen ice.<br /> 5. Surprise statement bling earrings.<br /> 6. Pattern mix of scarf and skirt.<br /> Is the jacket too long for me at 5’3”? Does the pattern mix work? I welcome your thoughts and suggestions. Please ignore the hair which was washed but not yet tamed. </p>
