Can you half or partial tuck? Can you fold the bottom of the sweater up on a diagonal so that we see at least more hip on one side? I often use this latter technique when a tuck won`t stay put or when I need to cut the horizontal girth of the backside (not your problem, but definitely mine). </p> <p>Can you use foot inserts or other magic to make the booties fit? The outfit components are indeed splendid! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919/page/2#post-2073600 Thu, 31 Oct 2019 02:04:00 +0000 ladypainter 2073600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the red hair &amp; russet nails w/that cream sweater! It’s a really good look—maybe you’re simply accustomed to dark neutrals and need to re-calibrate your eye for the cream, beige, &amp; taupe? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919/page/2#post-2073581 Thu, 31 Oct 2019 01:07:05 +0000 Anonymous 2073581@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the colors on you, and your nails! I too like it more without the coat, and wonder if a deeper brown would be better. What about a leather jacket or other shorter topper? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919/page/2#post-2073529 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 23:10:26 +0000 Suz 2073529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's a gorgeous outfit on you -- truly! And I suspect you're just not used to yourself in light neutrals. The coat is possibly the weakest link, but even there I wonder if camera angle might be fooling us a bit...</p> <p>Add a bit of jewellery, too, to make it feel more "you."&nbsp;</p> <p>What a pain about the boots. They do look good, anyway, so at least there is that.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919/page/2#post-2073518 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 22:05:37 +0000 Sal 2073518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would like to see the coat over your black Lisa, or even with denim.....</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073505 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 21:17:31 +0000 kellygirl 2073505@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I just adore that cream sweater on you.

The new sweater is just lovely. I don't like tucking bulky sweaters either, I just feel a bit weird doing that and don't like the extra bulk on my waistline. Pictures 1 &amp; 2 are just beautiful. The manicure is fantastic and such a nice match with your hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073331 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 13:25:28 +0000 Katerina 2073331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the sweater on you, no 1 - 2 look great! The cream is beautiful on you and the whole look is very elegant. I understand that the boots feel unpolished - what a shame, but it is not visible in the pictures, they look good.&nbsp;<br />As for the coat - I have difficulties to see the colours properly on my screen in these particular pictures, but I like the shape of the coat. Maybe another scarf would help if you feel the colour is too bland on you? Would the McQueen work here?<br />Lovely nails and rings!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073330 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 13:16:28 +0000 Elizabeth P 2073330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>I wonder if you need more contrast?</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073322 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 12:42:05 +0000 lyn67 2073322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The coat is the culprit, too much of&nbsp; beige and knit, and can suck your soul out of it's place- if you don't mind me saying:-). Thus, the outfit underneath is GORGEOUS- don't change a thing, not even the white boots! I suggest a rust or darker brown-olive coat, or a structured trench if it has to be beige.&nbsp; You can add more bling if you want, but love the hair and the nails to it!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073319 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 12:23:15 +0000 Aquamarine 2073319@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree with everyone’s assessment re: the coat, and I love the nail color...I’m sporting a similar color for the first time ever and I’m loving it for all the fall feels.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073313 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 11:49:08 +0000 Gail 2073313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&nbsp;I LOVE IT ALL !!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073285 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 07:53:34 +0000 Style Fan 2073285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the outfit in #1 and #2.&nbsp; The colour is gorgeous on you.&nbsp; Your nails are beautiful.&nbsp; Angie is right about cream vs. beige.&nbsp; I would not have been able to figure that one out.<br />I just post my photos from my phone.&nbsp; I don't know how to do editing, etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073272 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 04:17:54 +0000 Anonymous 2073272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>See ? This is the value of the forum . I wouldn’t have figured the coat for the weak link , but now I absolutely see it . Also adding in some statement jewelry would help . Glad to heat the new sweater meets the colour flattery test Thanks all ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073267 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 03:51:59 +0000 Gigi 2073267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely colors!</p> <p>I think the proportions are off a little bit. It seems like you are cut in half at the hem of the sweater. I think you need either a shorter top, or maybe hemming the pants a bit so that they are noticeably shorter would fix the proportions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073253 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 03:03:55 +0000 Jaime 2073253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes to what Runcarla just said (and Angie and you and others). I was very into the outfit up until the coat. Maybe it is the color, maybe the lack of structure or cut. I really like the white boots here, your hair and nails and makeup are gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073252 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 02:49:06 +0000 Carla 2073252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 and #2 = elegant to my eye, and I really like thentrousers. I’m not so keen on the coat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073240 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 01:46:26 +0000 Sal 2073240@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it and see no reason to change it. Darker boots would also work brilliantly.</p> <p>Nice nails too!</p> <p>I can’t do semi tucks well - I either tuck or I don’t with rare exceptions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073235 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 01:28:25 +0000 Irina 2073235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, I really like #1 &amp; 2! I find this coat is too light colored to go with pants. It is about proportions to my eye. A light sweater is less than a half of the outfit, where coat is more than a half and darker pants are caught between lighter coat and boots, if it makes any sense. In other words, a short coat in this color would work, also you might want to try darker boots.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073229 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 00:40:39 +0000 Anonymous 2073229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting thoughts about the coat and it’s colour . Unfortunately , my citron coat and I split up in the spring . I wasn’t feeling the colour anymore and the quality of that coat was never there to begin ( BR from a couple of years ago ) with and it had started to lose it’s crispness . I am not terribly fussed about the volume of the sweater in this case because I wanted a simple throw on and go look . I had my coat on all day anyways . Sometimes all that semi tuck stuff is too much work </p> <p>I also appreciate the recommendations for more jewellery - and maybe a darker boot . My fantastic new Vagabond metallic brown patent boots arrived and they were my first choice but I think I need to put an outdoor sole on them . It’s winter here now </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073227 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 00:31:39 +0000 Anonymous 2073227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The light color scheme is unexpected and lovely on you. You may feel better with a bit more color like the citron coat Angie suggests or an orange scarf that blends with your hair and nails. I do post pictures directly from my phone. Too many steps for me otherwise. I love your light colored booties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073221 Wed, 30 Oct 2019 00:06:29 +0000 Janet 2073221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, the light color scheme really suits you nicely, but I suspect Helena may be on to something since you’re more accustomed to anchoring your look with darker tones, and also I had a reaction similar to Roxanna’s about the sweater (I would probably pair that sweater with full-length pants to balance the volume of it, but that’s me and my reluctance to embrace crops ). </p> <p>Nonetheless, you look great. Love the nail color. I’ve been meaning to do mine again but I’m so darn hard on my hands. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073218 Tue, 29 Oct 2019 23:33:05 +0000 rachylou 2073218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I feel you are missing jewelry... a cuff, a brooch... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073215 Tue, 29 Oct 2019 23:13:31 +0000 Roxanna 2073215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also echo that that light palette is absolutely stunning with your coloring and new hair. The cream is just spectacular on you... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073214 Tue, 29 Oct 2019 23:07:53 +0000 JAileen 2073214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this outfit is quietly lovely. It shows you, not the outfit. &nbsp;Your nails are beautiful. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073211 Tue, 29 Oct 2019 22:35:41 +0000 Roxanna 2073211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love these colors and the Luxe look of this but I know what you mean - the proportions look off somehow. I think either you need a welt or faux tuck on the sweater, or shorten the pants to show more ankle? Defer to Angie in this one... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073209 Tue, 29 Oct 2019 22:20:31 +0000 notsaf 2073209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, we're Fendi Zucca twins! I purchased mine a few years ago via Real Real. I adore it and won't let it go.&nbsp;(Apparently, they're worth a lot more now.) </p> <p>I think you look lovely.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-pale-neutrals---outfit-lab-wiw-102919#post-2073207 Tue, 29 Oct 2019 22:11:56 +0000 Mainelady 2073207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m not going to suggest any changes. I think the light neutrals look beautiful on you. I love your hair and nail color....such great choices for autumn. IMO this outfit should be on repeat. </p>
