I fell in love with the color and shape. I am amazed that in the past year I have managed to turn into a "bag lady" with a small but high quality and much loved selection of bags to choose from. Previously I just would buy one inexpensive bag and wear it to death! The mustard Kate Spade bag really altered my perspective on purses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-skirt-in-the-rain#post-629597 Sat, 26 May 2012 19:11:57 +0000 Kari 629597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chrizzle, yes, that's my significant other B. I love the mischievous expression on his face. I'd never been to Bastille before but would happily return!</p> <p>Angie, agreed- that's one of my favorites among his shirts. He looks great in blue, green, and gray. I know he prefers tees but he looks great in woven shirts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-skirt-in-the-rain#post-627262 Thu, 24 May 2012 01:00:14 +0000 christy 627262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari, both of these are beautiful, but I particularly like that pumpkin cardigan with those fab new shoes of yours.</p> <p>(Hoping like mad that the sunny weather returns to us soon!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-skirt-in-the-rain#post-627233 Thu, 24 May 2012 00:25:57 +0000 Suz 627233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So delighted to see those pumpkin shoes in action! Love both your outfits, and the cobalt bag is also wonderful. I am sure it loves the pumpkin shoes, too. </p> <p>I have a similar shaped black skirt that I adore in exactly the weather conditions you describe. It's perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-skirt-in-the-rain#post-627228 Thu, 24 May 2012 00:21:47 +0000 Anonymous 627228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What? Is that a new cobalt bag I see? You wouldn't try to sneak in a new bag without a proper introduction, now would you? I love it!</p> <p>You look amazing and beautiful in that shimmery top and circle skirt. Love the pose too! B is quite handsome in his cool frames. Glad to see the new pumpkin pumps in action. You look fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-skirt-in-the-rain#post-627175 Wed, 23 May 2012 23:30:29 +0000 Aida 627175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, love the spicy colors with the black! You and B are too cute in #1/2 ^^ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-skirt-in-the-rain#post-627095 Wed, 23 May 2012 21:47:56 +0000 Vicki 627095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There's that great cobalt blue handbag I love and what a fab post, because I feel like I just spent time with you and B. Your skirt is so beautiful and I love #1 with the red shoes, blue purse and just-perfect top. Then, to do it again in an entirely different vibe, with pumpkin, show the magic of this skirt. </p> <p>Kari, I love food pics (and just posted an egg shot on my fb page!) and it looks like someone likes pepper as much as I do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-skirt-in-the-rain#post-627079 Wed, 23 May 2012 21:27:38 +0000 nancylee 627079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari, you look polished and lovely. The orange, black and white combo in #2 is beautiful on you. Sounds like a great concert...I'm a Great Big Sea fan myself! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-skirt-in-the-rain#post-627077 Wed, 23 May 2012 21:23:51 +0000 catgirl 627077@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That second outfit with the spicy tones is so pretty!

I think I'll be adding them to favorites for future inspiration. I love the two different looks with the same fab skirt. Particularly love that pewter cowl top. </p> <p>I haven't been to Bastille in ages, and now I'm craving their croque monsieur, and I won't be able to get there until next week. Thanks a lot! Is that your guy? He's cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-skirt-in-the-rain#post-626947 Wed, 23 May 2012 17:36:18 +0000 Transcona Shannon 626947@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love both of these outfits Kari and I'm hungry just looking at the delicious plate! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-skirt-in-the-rain#post-626939 Wed, 23 May 2012 17:24:57 +0000 Beth Ann 626939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like a great time, Kari!

I absolutely adore those pumps, your print shell, and the overall silhouette.<br /> (Fun photo of B. too) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-skirt-in-the-rain#post-626876 Wed, 23 May 2012 15:56:28 +0000 Kari 626876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Our fabulous Spring weather in Seattle vanished quite suddenly after the <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2012/05/22/fun-and-photography-at-alki-beach/">photo shoot on Sunday</a>, and we're back to drizzle. The overcast skies prompted a shift in the colors I was drawn to, and somehow this black circle midi skirt felt like just the ticket-I've been wearing it often. </p> <p>#1-2: B. and I joined friends in Seattle for a small-ish concert by <a href="http://alandoyle.ca/">Alan Doyle</a> (a lead singer from Great Big Sea embarking on the first leg of his solo tour, which was great fun to attend, especially in such a small, intimate venue.) Before the show, we met up for a quick bite at a French cafe.<br /> Black circle skirt, shimmery pewter long sleeved, cowl neck top, cherry red patent pumps, black ribbon with white stitching worn as belt, cobalt handbag. </p> <p>#3: A work day: black circle skirt; black, orange, and white print shell, black cord and bead necklace from the YLF Seattle swap, pumpkin cardigan and low heeled pumps. </p>
