I always thought these were rather Cruella-lite (4" stilettos are more suitable.) They have done their job but it's probably time to retire. </p> <p>A couple of you hit on what I like about wearing tops like this with culottes. I need a strong element of black on top to create a column of color to feel comfortable with volume-on-volume. I also feel like a slightly voluminous top like this, but loosely tucked or banded to create structure, works best to offset the fact that my waist is waaaay higher than it appears in these pics. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/culottes-emerald-citron-dalmatian#post-1625564 Sun, 06 Mar 2016 06:02:26 +0000 Sal 1625564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous in every way - I love the trendiness of it , but in a way that really really suits you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/culottes-emerald-citron-dalmatian#post-1625558 Sun, 06 Mar 2016 05:50:31 +0000 Deborah 1625558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari, this looks lovely. &nbsp;Beautiful colours and a perfectly put together outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/culottes-emerald-citron-dalmatian#post-1625548 Sun, 06 Mar 2016 05:01:29 +0000 Anonymous 1625548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun and vibrant!

You're on a roll, for sure. Wasn't the weather today just divine and inspiring? We were out and about downtown doing a little Spring retail therapy today. I really must try more green, as a fellow jewel tone fan, I just don't reach for it enough when shopping. Thanks for the inspiration and the bag is fantastic BTW!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/culottes-emerald-citron-dalmatian#post-1625467 Sun, 06 Mar 2016 00:16:05 +0000 El Cee 1625467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look gorgeous Kari -- an absolutely stunning outfit.

It has that black center that makes a column of color. You look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/culottes-emerald-citron-dalmatian#post-1625456 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 23:50:10 +0000 Keix 1625456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It seems you've sent the customary Seattle rain down to the Bay Area! It's supposed to rain all weekend, alas.</p> <p>I am really impressed by the proportions in your outfit, Kari. Volume-on-volume is something I struggle with myself and I haven't managed to make culottes work, but they look smashing on you. Also, I adore the color pairing of your green blouse and red hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/culottes-emerald-citron-dalmatian#post-1625455 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 23:49:09 +0000 Tanya 1625455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love everything about this outfit on you Karie, gorgeous.&nbsp; Envious of your warm weather too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/culottes-emerald-citron-dalmatian#post-1625435 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 23:08:12 +0000 Angie 1625435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Killer</p> <p>LOVE. These colours scream "Karie", in the best way.&nbsp;</p> <p>Isn't it a <b>gorgeous</b> day today! I'm busting out a new Spring outfit to wear out to snazzy supper with friends tonight.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/culottes-emerald-citron-dalmatian#post-1625392 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 22:10:02 +0000 Kari 1625392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Taking advantage of a rare, beautiful day to break out springtime pieces a bit early:</p> <p>Vince camuto drapey peasant blouse that has been a staple piece for years. I love the stripe of citron; on its own it isn't a color I love (chartreuse is better for me) but I really enjoy the way it pops amid the emerald and black. </p> <p>I paired it with my pleather culottes, newer pieces from this year's Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. Both the blouse and culottes represent trends and shapes I was really hesitant to try, until I found the right pieces. If you had asked me if I would wear a loose, banded blouse AND wide leather culottes together a few years ago, I'm betting I would have said no. </p> <p>Now, I'm wanting to wear these culottes often where I might have worn a midi skirt in the past. The culottes have taken a break for most of winter (though I wore them a couple times with tall boots) but came out frequently in fall, mostly with longer, floaty blouses tucked in. This blouse is banded so looks like it's tucked even though it really isn't. </p> <p>Normally I would wear turquoise pumps with this top and a black bottom, but today I felt like breaking out these Dalmatian print pumps with tassels (another piece that's going on several years old.) They are starting to get rather shabby, though, so I'll be seeking out a replacement. The leopard print pair that's identical to these shoes are in better shape. </p>
