I worry more about messing with other people's style comfort zones. For example, yesterday, it was so so hot! 80 degrees at night hot. I wore a black studded tank/tunic as a dress. Very simple really, but it was a make-my-bf-squirm look. I told him he was lucky I wasn't also putting on my combat boots, which I'd have done if he weren't there.</p> <p>I want red tartan skinnies, which are too loud for everyone. But those are sympatico with my way of thinking.</p> <p>...I suppose that leaves harem pants. I don't see myself in them plus they'll make everyone squirm. I think that has to be it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angies-edict-13-something-out-of-your-style-zone-what-will-it-be/page/2#post-738007 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 18:13:54 +0000 RoseandJoan 738007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been given a beautiful sixties bracelet that belonged to my Mum which is just screaming out for a boho dress or shirt.

Also, I'm tucking slim-legged jeans into boots--something I never thought I'd ever do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angies-edict-13-something-out-of-your-style-zone-what-will-it-be/page/2#post-737715 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 12:08:13 +0000 pastrygirl 737715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I already have mine; a flowy waist-surrendering blouse in a pattern that I never would've picked out in a million years! But, I went to Nordstrom specifically looking for flowy tops, tried this one on, and loved it: <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/bellefleur-animal-print-blouse/3302323?origin=keywordsearch&#038;contextualcategoryid=0&#038;fashionColor=&#038;resultback=2224" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/be.....tback=2224</a></p> <p>I also picked up a pair of light-colored snakeprint slim leg pants yesterday. I haven't worn light-colored pants in YEARS (ever since WNTW started). I really liked them, but there's a weird twisty feeling at the top of the legs that I can't get past. It feels like it was sewn wrong or something, so they're going back. Even thought they look great with my new Fryes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angies-edict-13-something-out-of-your-style-zone-what-will-it-be#post-737699 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 11:34:47 +0000 Sharon 737699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Already done! I bought a voluminous, flow-y dress, above knee dress. Totally different to my usual structured style preference, but I think I can make it work. Or possibly I'll just look like I'm wearing my nighty in public. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angies-edict-13-something-out-of-your-style-zone-what-will-it-be#post-737669 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 08:23:21 +0000 rute 737669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>oversize tops and sweater, before that were boots and pants, but I've conquered those two!

GREEN! I love green so much, it is my favorite color, but I'm so used to neutrals for coats, and I'm both scared and thrilled when I ponder this new idea. So as Zap so eloquently put it, "dang it I'm going in!" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angies-edict-13-something-out-of-your-style-zone-what-will-it-be#post-737442 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 01:30:56 +0000 qpswan 737442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent question!</p> <p>Definitely orange.

I'll see if I can find some time to go try some Editors on at Express this weekend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angies-edict-13-something-out-of-your-style-zone-what-will-it-be#post-737405 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 01:06:33 +0000 Debora 737405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good question! Can I count my cons as going outside my style zone? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angies-edict-13-something-out-of-your-style-zone-what-will-it-be#post-737396 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 01:02:47 +0000 Aida 737396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Diana, I replied to you about my trousers in my post but I'll say it again here: Those trousers are Express Editors in a size or two up (not sure how many sizes, heh). So they sit low on my hips and the crotch is definitely dropped. Think BF jean waist fit, but with wide leg trousers. Hope that helps! And FWIW I think if you found the right pair you'd totally rock that look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angies-edict-13-something-out-of-your-style-zone-what-will-it-be#post-737392 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 00:59:25 +0000 Diana 737392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going to look for some trousers. Aside from my not-great-fitting "interview trousers" that I almost never wear, I haven't had any for years. I've always thought of trousers as too businessy and classic so if I buy some, that will be a departure for me. </p> <p>I was originally thinking slouchy straight ones like Angie's, but I may even try some upsized wide legs after seeing Aida's amazing trouser look earlier this week. Wide leg trousers would be REALLY out of my comfort zone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angies-edict-13-something-out-of-your-style-zone-what-will-it-be#post-737387 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 00:55:19 +0000 Aida 737387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm thinking waxed or metallic denim! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angies-edict-13-something-out-of-your-style-zone-what-will-it-be#post-737315 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 00:07:25 +0000 Jjsloane 737315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm still too scared. I thought something asymmetrical (because I loathe it on me) but that's not really a comfort zone, but a personal preference. Anna and I should trade outfits then we'll both be outside our zones. (kidding) Good conversation, just not sure yet but I'd love to be inspired here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angies-edict-13-something-out-of-your-style-zone-what-will-it-be#post-737302 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 00:01:43 +0000 Anonymous 737302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd like to find trousers, especially in a color. That will be a challenge for both finding fit and styling a colored pair for winter. I wouldn't mind if they were slouchy but that would be another challenge to my comfort zone. </p>
