Specially on a cold day. I would combine the blue coat with red of course - something nautical.❤️ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203282 Fri, 18 Jun 2021 01:26:59 +0000 Jaime 2203282@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The red outfit is amazing on you! And all thrifted! Agree with you about the jacket shape. The blue outfit looks good too - I like those velvet trousers! But I know what you mean about button ups, I have to be in a mood to wear mine. The outfit would work without that layer anyway . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203237 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 20:51:46 +0000 rachylou 2203237@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love LOVE the tonal blue with velvet pants and dress. Feminine, fun and I imagine functional.</p> <p>The red is interesting to me. I find the pieces casual yet the styling formal… and wonder where you’re going and what you’ll be doing… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203229 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 20:32:05 +0000 Cardiff girl 2203229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The red outfit is fab!shame you feel like a traffic sign in it.<br />l never have any success making raincoats look good so l admire your attempt to do so. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203226 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 20:19:32 +0000 Helena 2203226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I feel that you are the queen of tonal dressing! Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203208 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 18:08:04 +0000 Anonymous 2203208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You wear muted tones so well, so this is a pleasant surprise. I was immediately drawn to outfit one on its own and on you but looking back, they’re both good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203207 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 18:05:11 +0000 Sloper 2203207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them both!!!&nbsp; Both photos look like they are from a "street style" fashion blog!</p> <p>You look very good in strong colors.&nbsp;</p> <p>Also, the shapes in the red outfit are so flattering - can you replicate with other wardrobe items in different colors?</p> <p>And I like the disco blue though I understand that you don't like the wide collar.&nbsp; You could try a blue knit dress or tunic over the velvet pants.</p> <p>But think about how a wide collar works for you - you have a wide collar in the red outfit too - it is a nice face-framing device.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203203 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 17:39:01 +0000 Synne 2203203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all for the kind words! </p> <p>FI, I don't feel like a blob, hehe, but I absolutely detest defined waists on coats, or anything really. They never hit at the right spot, I oftentimes only look like a shrunken geriatric on stilts (no, not sharing photo proof, lol). Reading up on Kibbe (yes, I know, yawn) it appears that my category should avoid waist definition, so I have the science to back my intuition up! Kinda </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203202 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 17:38:35 +0000 Minaminu 2203202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>the red outfit is fab, you seem to be at ease in it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203200 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 17:31:25 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2203200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting how cool I &amp; others think you look, with your various reds in 1 &amp; the cool collar in 2, compared to how you feel like a big blob. That’s how I generally feel when I wear plain pieces, with no pattern. Tonal matching (the sort you have in #1) works wonders for me then. But I wonder if I look to other people as much like the Grimace/ Clifford the Big Red Dog as I feel? Not trying to make it about me, just saying this dissonance thing is a thing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203183 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 15:48:41 +0000 Mirjana 2203183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tonal red is fantastic. You look amazing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203177 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 15:29:27 +0000 kellygirl 2203177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is so fun to see you in color! More love for the easy relaxed look in 1--you don't look like a stop sign at all, btw. I really like the blues on you but I get what you mean about the collar--it's definitely a more preppy look but looks more playful on you than masculine. YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203173 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 15:18:03 +0000 Zaeobi 2203173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both colours work great on you! These outfits remind me of the time we dressed up as Joseph's Technicolour Dreamcoat for school - everyone was grumbling about having to find a head-to-toe outfit in one colour, meanwhile I was delighted lol. Guess who ended up supplying most of the clothing that time around? </p> <p>I hear you on the dress shirt collar - I still have a couple of blouses in my holding zone that I would love to wear if they had more open necklines! I'm actually planning to go shopping for a seam ripper for this, but am a little nervous still because most internet DIY tutorials I'm finding seem to be about transforming a dress shirt collar into a Mandarin or 'grandpa' neckline (instead of getting rid of the collar completely). So wish me luck lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203170 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 14:56:49 +0000 LaPed 2203170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amazing tonal ensembles! #1 is my fav too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203167 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 14:44:57 +0000 slim cat 2203167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 a lot - bright and fun! The blue outfit in #3 is nice - would definitely wear it - love your earrings and scarf! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203165 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 14:42:16 +0000 catherine 2203165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very cool outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203162 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 14:34:34 +0000 carambola 2203162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More love for #1! Your tonal looks are always great and the red doesn't seem overly bright or over the top at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203156 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 14:14:02 +0000 Angie 2203156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The tonal red in #1 is KILLER. The pink earrings add a fun '80s touch :)</p> <p>I love how the polka dot scarf packs the punch in #3!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203154 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 14:10:01 +0000 Carla 2203154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><i>Love&nbsp;</i>#1! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colourful-outfits-wiw#post-2203150 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 13:59:37 +0000 Synne 2203150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had some fun the other day, putting together colorful outfits for a rainy and cold (what's new?) summers day. I am sharing for educational purposes... :-D</p> <p>The red outfit came out surprisingly good in photos. I am not sure I would wear it like this out and about. I would feel like a giant stop sign! The garments (and shoes) are actually all thrifted. That's why I dared try a colour that's really not "me".</p> <p>The second is an attempt to style my blue raincoat. The coat has the best shape (A-line and no waist definition!). In #2 I tried styling with a cute vintage dress with trendy "disco collar". Verdict: I hate it!!! I don't like these overly masculine (in lack of better words) shapes. I have donated all my collared button-up shirts too... I much prefer blouses, mandarin collars and everything else. </p> <p>Thanks for looking! Xoxo </p>
