You rock those booties! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bridal-shower-outfit#post-1458787 Wed, 18 Mar 2015 12:41:54 +0000 lyn67 1458787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes-it's perfect- so why not wear it with the booties! A cream jacket and sheer hose would be also great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bridal-shower-outfit#post-1458688 Wed, 18 Mar 2015 07:05:20 +0000 Deborah 1458688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this! &nbsp;And I love it with the jacket it brings a really nice structural element to the outfit. &nbsp;And you know age is only a number right? &nbsp;You are gorgeous and from what I have seen, have awesome style. &nbsp;You have fast become one of my style icons. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bridal-shower-outfit#post-1458684 Wed, 18 Mar 2015 06:51:13 +0000 rabbit 1458684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the booties and the dress look great on you. &nbsp;So does the jacket, but since it's a spring bridal shower, &nbsp;it might be that&nbsp;there will be a lot of lighter/brighter colors in the group, so a lighter topper in a white or pale gray or really any soft or bright&nbsp;color might be an idea to try out, and casual formulations like a leather or denim jacket or cardigan as Firecracker mentioned. &nbsp; It might be that&nbsp;paler or nude or sheer black hose work better with a lighter topper, or might be great as is with just that one substitution. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bridal-shower-outfit#post-1458680 Wed, 18 Mar 2015 06:33:40 +0000 anne 1458680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The booties are fine but I agree with Sharan - I think this looks a little too office-y - do you have some other toppers you could try? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bridal-shower-outfit#post-1458673 Wed, 18 Mar 2015 05:43:26 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1458673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress is great on you, and I love it with the booties. The jacket looks terrific with it, but it might read a little more office than social event. Do you have something like a shrug or short cardigan? Or how about a short jean jacket or leather jacket? (Would that be too casual for this event?) You could wear just about any color, I'd say. Red would be fun. I think the proportion is going to be more of the deciding factor, probably. And this jacket would totally work--I'm just wondering about other options. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bridal-shower-outfit#post-1458555 Wed, 18 Mar 2015 02:33:53 +0000 old chic 1458555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also open to ideas for other colors for toppers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bridal-shower-outfit#post-1458551 Wed, 18 Mar 2015 02:28:29 +0000 Jaime 1458551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The booties look good with the dress and on you. I can't speak for old ladies in general :-). I think I would try a cardigan with straighter or softer lines, but I am better at critiquing than proposing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bridal-shower-outfit#post-1458544 Wed, 18 Mar 2015 02:04:23 +0000 old chic 1458544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My niece is getting married, and I am heading to her bridal shower in Providence, RI this weekend. It's at 11 a.m. on Sunday morning.&nbsp; It had been a looong time since I'd been to a bridal shower when I went to one last year. I wore a black Martin Margiela jkt, a Prabal Gurung t-shirt (very colorful and quirky floral), black slim pants and boots to the last one and felt totally out of place, as all the others (much younger than I) were wearing cute dresses and high heels. So, in the interest of not sticking out like a sore and melancholy thumb, I picked up a nice wool knit dress today. It's sleeveless, so I need to wear a jacket over it (old lady upper arms). So the picture below shows how I am thinking of styling it for the event. Is the jacket the right length? I have lots of black jkts and sweaters, so maybe I could adjust. Also, are the booties too much for an old lady? </p>
