My preference for me would be the magenta, but I like the light one with your coloring and especially those cute booties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference/page/2#post-389173 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 18:50:50 +0000 sarah 389173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Jean. At this point, I've decided to keep both - no need to hide, as you're the color expert. It's funny, sometimes I get lazy about posting "keep or returns", since I hate changing clothes over and over again. I'm often pressed for time (not to mention that the record heat indices we've been experiencing made me want to take photos as quickly as possible and be done with it), so I'll keep the same pants or cami on and shoot away. BUT, I often regret it later, as it does make a huge difference what things are paired with, obviously. I will probably repost later on with actual outfits, before I make the *final*, final decision. Funny you should mention the magenta accessory - I tried the plum on with a magenta cami at one point, and quite liked it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference#post-389149 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 18:21:26 +0000 morethanbeige 389149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another magenta here. I think it looks great with your coloring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference#post-389122 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 18:04:44 +0000 Jonesy 389122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No need to hide, Jean! I agree with you, along with a few others; we are just in the minority :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference#post-389116 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 17:57:43 +0000 greenglove 389116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the magenta looks better initially because of the pop and the black. Black needs a color that is vibrant which is why the plum does not work, however the plum is probably a better color for your coloring. I know, everyone disagrees, that's ok- I want to honest. pairing the plum with white , denim and a magenta accessory would make all the difference.<br /> OK, now I will go hide. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference#post-389104 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 17:45:09 +0000 catgirl 389104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Magenta - though I see that's already decided! Amazing to see how a shade or two can make such a difference... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference#post-389031 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 16:18:45 +0000 Freckles 389031@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yippee Sarah. I think the ladies are right with the plum suggestions. That is one of my favourite colours... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference#post-388959 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 14:32:29 +0000 sarah 388959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, enablers! I think I'll keep them both, as I wear white button downs quite frequently, which I could see working well with the plum (thanks, Kim and Jonesy). The magenta will be a new adventure in bold color for me, which could be fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference#post-388955 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 14:26:31 +0000 Jonesy 388955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I prefer the plum on you! But I'd probably pair it with a lighter underlayer, like white or silver-gray. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference#post-388924 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 13:15:46 +0000 Debora 388924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Magenta! You look great, Sarah! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference#post-388904 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 12:44:44 +0000 Queen Mum 388904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As you have them styled, Magenta. I'd love to see the lilac against a different color than the black. That might make a difference to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference#post-388900 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 12:41:47 +0000 Lynne 388900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:) would you like to co-queen the kingdom of fuschia/magenta with me, Sarah? you look wonderful. FWIW, I like the plum, too :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference#post-388887 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 12:12:06 +0000 Irene 388887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely NOT magenta. It's very tiring color, in my humble opinion. Maybe not for you, but for people around it will be like sand in the eyes. I worked in Macy's, every season they have a lot of magenta colored clothing, and, believe me, after couple of hours my eyes were itchy from magenta everywhere.<br /> I consider smoky amethyst color more aristocratic, if you can say so. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference#post-388886 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 12:11:49 +0000 Astrid 388886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay for magenta!

It runs true to size, I think. I got the SP. Sometimes I wear XSP, sometimes SP, so it's good for you to try both sizes. I hope it works out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference#post-388856 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 10:59:54 +0000 Louise 388856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for magenta it looks fab on you x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardi-color-preference#post-388853 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 09:53:55 +0000 Deborah 388853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's already been said!
