Gorgeous colors, an unusual print, and beautiful drape. I agree with April that your footwear choice will also add to the current feel of this outfit, though even with your bare feet, it reads hip and chic to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls/page/2#post-2204052 Mon, 21 Jun 2021 15:14:42 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2204052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don’t you have gold Birkies with a thong? That’s what I think you should wear with this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2204040 Mon, 21 Jun 2021 14:03:50 +0000 bella 2204040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>100% chic is my vote!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2204038 Mon, 21 Jun 2021 13:55:14 +0000 RobinF 2204038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it!

And I agree that the colours are *so* good on you and keep the outfit well out of Miami retiree territory. Love April's idea for sneakers.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2204017 Mon, 21 Jun 2021 10:58:56 +0000 April 2204017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I often wonder the same about certain combinations, Roxana, so I'm right there with you.&nbsp; My solution is often to "street" the look up a little by wearing cool sneakers or another item that Dorothy wouldn't have been caught dead in.</p> <p>You know what I mean?&nbsp; If you put this outfit with Golden Goose sneakers or maybe Common Projects, you're in good shape but if you go for jeweled mules, not so much. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203980 Mon, 21 Jun 2021 02:03:26 +0000 Roxanna 2203980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Jaime I actually am LOVING your shorter hair! Honestly. It looks so great with your face shape.</p> <p>My hair has now grown out to the point where one side is 5 inches long abs the other is 10 inches - and no haircut in sight. So hair clips it is… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203977 Mon, 21 Jun 2021 01:32:31 +0000 Jaime 2203977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had to laugh because I have been comparing my hair to Maude lately. Bea Arthur made quite an impression!<br />Anyway, no you do not look at all like you belong at the rummykub table . I love the colors on you and how they represent your beach palette and mix warm and cool shades. Love your hair pulled back too - you look gorgeous!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203966 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 23:56:53 +0000 slim cat 2203966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the sweater and the whole look- fab!

The palette is modern and I LOVE those pants ... However, I'm in for Nuancedream's g&amp;t lanai meetup!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203932 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 20:15:47 +0000 Tanya 2203932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this works very well.&nbsp; Love the colors/design of that top, and your hair, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203931 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 20:06:38 +0000 Irina 2203931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Roxanna, your are very kind.<br />This is why this look is flattering on you to my eye:<br />- you added structure with slim sleeves and well fitted neckline of the top<br />- your pants are cropped and keep the overall shape from being overwhelming<br />I use the same rules when wearing volume over volume.&nbsp;<br />You also picked a beautiful color combination. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203930 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 19:59:48 +0000 JAileen 2203930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No, you don’t look like one of the Golden Girls! &nbsp;You look too young and cool. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203924 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 19:44:33 +0000 Roxanna 2203924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@irina - you are one of my inspirations for this, because you always ROCK this look! And it never looks old on you - I think I’m just not used to it on myself, so my eye is adjusting.</p> <p>Thank you everyone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203922 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 19:18:46 +0000 Janet 2203922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it! I think the color palette keeps it looking modern and *you* — pastels would be a whole different story. I love the pattern in the top. I bet trendy sandals would be perfect with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203919 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 19:10:37 +0000 Irina 2203919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your outfit. But it’s not surprising, this is one of the silhouettes I wear often. Never crossed my mind it might look old. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203918 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 19:07:41 +0000 Roxanna 2203918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all so much - honestly I so appreciate my crack fashion team at the ready </p> <p>@FI and @Lisa - I appreciate your analysis of why it works , that helps. </p> <p>And @Msmaven - you clearly have Dorothy’s style down! Thanks for distinguishing .</p> <p>This was worn for a Father’s Day lunch I am hosting, so I wanted something easy with movement.</p> <p>Top is Nexxt - thrifted (sorry @Jonesy! I love landscape patterns too - they are so hard to find!)<br /> Culottes are Eileen Fisher from The Bay (on sale now and SO comfortable!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203915 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 19:05:24 +0000 nuancedream 2203915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FI, you're the hostess with mostess! Cool as a cucumber sandwiches, please. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203914 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 19:01:08 +0000 MsMaven 2203914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Why I think it works: Dorothy usually wore collars, high collars, or collars flipped up. She work stiffer, bulkier fabrics, often vests or even a jacket over the top.&nbsp;</p> <p>You have on a wider, uncomplicated neckline--aren't trying to hide anything such as your neck. The silhouette is much narrower, and is silky and flowing, designed to let your shape show through as you move around, and not hide anything.&nbsp;</p> <p>My 2¢ worth.</p> <p>Looks like a lovely relaxing outfit to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203909 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 18:31:58 +0000 Glory 2203909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it works but like FI said you need to be comfortable.<br /> Totally love Golden girls! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203906 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 18:20:40 +0000 rachylou 2203906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It’s good. The top is fab. </p> <p>Young people really really loooove Golden Girls. Did y’all know that? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203905 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 18:16:34 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2203905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ms Dream, shall I bring you some prawn toast with sesame seeds to accompany your beverage, or do you prefer cucumber sandwiches?</p> <p>The genius part of the colors in the top is how many different directions it goes with them; you wear it with rust perfectly. I’d probably match the teal green just under your chin, or maybe the periwinkle blue further down. That blue might work with medium wash jeans, and then it has traditional neutrals black and white (or is that ivory?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203902 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 18:11:27 +0000 Anonymous 2203902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The sweater has awesome colors and design! Chic galore </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203900 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 18:05:36 +0000 Anonymous 2203900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it ! &nbsp;Love the makeup too ! &nbsp;The colours take it out of Golden Girls territory - don't worry &nbsp;Totally modern and cool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203896 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 17:59:47 +0000 ChristelJ 2203896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreeing that the colors are made for you and it's not at all Dorothy, just flowy and relaxed. I would jump at that top if I saw it. Then, much of my wardrobe is aquired with a fantasy cocktail party on the deck in mind... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-chic-or-dorothy-from-golden-girls#post-2203895 Sun, 20 Jun 2021 17:57:18 +0000 Jonesy 2203895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I love that sweater! Gorgeous! (Could you share the details re. the sweater? I would be interested in copying--I love landscape designs like this on tops.)</p> <p>Okay, back to your actual question :)! I don't think it looks Golden Girls-esque at all, and the colors look gorgeous on you. What shoes would you wear? If you wanted to showcase the sweater but still do volume on the bottom, you could wear voluminous pants in a coordinating color (can't tell if the sweater is black or navy). </p>
