(This is an old thread though.)</p> <p>Sal, this was a month ago, and we had a wet few weeks in spring. The rain tends to happen for a few weeks at a atime then stop. Now that it’s June, we’ve had little rain. Winter can be snowy or not, depending on the year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1929426 Mon, 18 Jun 2018 11:35:53 +0000 lyn67 1929426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, love the lace skirt dressed down, and again the use of the metallic shoes even if casual, they perk up any outfit! I do have 2 white lace skirts, one maxi and one knee length and always do the same, dress them down and love! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1929385 Mon, 18 Jun 2018 04:07:31 +0000 Sal 1929385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in both outfits and I have envy about your Met membership:)&nbsp; Living here we just do not get to see these things easily.</p> <p>I really like the skirt on you and Mr Christina looks very dapper.</p> <p>Does New York get a lot of rain - you have mentioned thunderstorms and rain a couple of times - I always think of New York as being snowy in mid winter and hot in summer but not wet.&nbsp; But I should not base my opinions of New York on television shows and movies:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1929376 Mon, 18 Jun 2018 02:39:33 +0000 Jaime 1929376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You and Mr. You look fab - and the setting is gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1929331 Sun, 17 Jun 2018 21:38:14 +0000 Staysfit 1929331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! You look great! I love the BR skirt, and your bag and shoes add some fun to this outfit. I have fond memories of chasing my nephew around the Temple of Dendur. The room was empty when we were there except for a guard......it’s a big space if your a 6 year old with energy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1929302 Sun, 17 Jun 2018 17:39:14 +0000 Angie 1929302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER Gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1928876 Fri, 15 Jun 2018 18:12:23 +0000 unfrumped 1928876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How fun for day to night!

Since others took it a size down, I figure that's the reason why didn't. I often can't size down in pencil skirts because I have issues with bloating, etc. Hope that helps! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1928848 Fri, 15 Jun 2018 16:03:09 +0000 Anonymous 1928848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thank you! one more question if you don't mind . . . is this skirt true to size or would you size down one or up one?&nbsp; Reviews indicated some sized down, others tts.&nbsp; &nbsp;I am 5'7" 138 lbs.&nbsp; if that helps.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1928847 Fri, 15 Jun 2018 15:57:34 +0000 Christina F. 1928847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>CJ - YES! I think you may want hosiery in that case. It's more of a stretchy fabric than a thick one, which is one reason I love it. I don't think I'd wear it in the winter, but October would be just fine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1928846 Fri, 15 Jun 2018 15:47:03 +0000 Anonymous 1928846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you see this skirt going into Fall?&nbsp; &nbsp;thinking October wedding.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1919857 Wed, 16 May 2018 14:20:51 +0000 Christina F. 1919857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More replies, had to put the phone down earlier.</p> <p><b>krishnidoux and RobinF</b>- Thank you!

Mr. C's style is the product of almost 10 years of me slowly buying him clothes he liked better than what he got himself, and him noticing that fact ;)</p> <p><b>Diana,</b> we were dying over the reception location. Usually it's in the Petrie sculpture court, but this space is closer to the Costume Institute. </p> <p><b>Bijou,</b> the sneakers are definitely a top purchase.

I almost want to duplicate them. Much of the time they’re the exact right level of dressy I want to be for work. Shiny shoes are sooo versatile, in general. </p> <p>I also think my wardrobe has reached peak mixability. This allowed me to put together the morning outfit on the fly. It used to be that I’d think of things on the fly, but the combos wouldn’t really go together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1919748 Wed, 16 May 2018 05:42:54 +0000 Suz 1919748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous day to night, <b>Christina</b>! Mr. C. looks perfectly at home in the august setting! Don't you love that fashion sneakers allow us to be comfy AND stylish? And that unusual outfit juxtaposition makes it easier to go day-to-evening?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1919746 Wed, 16 May 2018 05:33:03 +0000 Katerina 1919746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome! Gorgeous skirt and fantastic how you created a casual outfit for work and then dressed it up for the party. Love both looks, you look beautiful.

It’s all very cohesive and perfect for the event. And how cool that the reception was in the temple of dendur! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1919721 Wed, 16 May 2018 03:38:11 +0000 kellygirl 1919721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love how you dressed down the lace skirt.

Very clever how you can wear it with sneakers and jacket, then mules, and change the whole feel of the outfit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1919689 Wed, 16 May 2018 01:08:34 +0000 Christina F. 1919689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jaileen, once upon a time, the country of Egypt gave the Met a whole temple: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple_of_Dendur" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple_of_Dendur</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1919688 Wed, 16 May 2018 01:04:13 +0000 JAileen 1919688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice transition. The skirt is really pretty, as are bag and silver shoes. What is the Temple of Dendur? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-black-lace-skirt---day-to-night-party#post-1919686 Wed, 16 May 2018 00:58:19 +0000 Christina F. 1919686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi everyone! I wore my black skirt to see the Met Museum’s Heavenly Bodies exhibition tonight (opening party for members). </p> <p>I decided to wear the outfit to work with my olive jacket and metallic sneakers. Then in the evening, I switched in the silver shoes and bag, and took off the jacket (I also wore running shoes and a raincoat to the museum, since there were thunderstorms). I had compliments from strangers on the bag and shoes.</p> <p>I’m including a photo of Mr. Christina, who was exited that the cocktail party took place at the Temple of Dendur. </p> <p>The exhibit is marvelous. If you’re in NYC while it’s on, please do attend. The items from the Vatican alone are worth seeing and rarely exhibited. The fashion items on display are the icing on the cake, and are beautifully framed by the Met’s Medieval and Byzantine galleries. </p>
