Of course I have summer gloves - you know the retro kind for driving a convertible? in light blue. Don’t wear them summertime though. Thanks for looking, analyzing and the nice compliments! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882272 Wed, 24 Jan 2018 17:07:10 +0000 lyn67 1882272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Quenn of Gloves and Layeres Scarves here&nbsp; again in some fab outfits! Wondered perhaps you own gloves for summer, too! Now,&nbsp; that would be an incredible elegant thing!&nbsp; Love the new boots with the first outfit. The suit sounds an interesting fabric, kind of get it how's that and find it fun and practical. Then the second outfit. I littole sober but the pink top lightens it up just enough and I love the similar textures of the suit and the scarf(both with some contrast bobbles). Pendant is&nbsp; a statement and quite artsy, too:-).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882190 Wed, 24 Jan 2018 13:39:28 +0000 Katerina 1882190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Toban</b>, thank you! Your accessories, especially necklaces are to die for. No need to envy </p> <p>Thank yoy <b>Tanstaafl, </b>nice of you to look and comment, thanks for the support!</p> <p><b>Jussie</b>, thank you and thanks for your analysis! At first, I had a little problem with "Dramatic" - tried to label myself more&nbsp;as a Classic, but after I while, I realised I love Dramatic. It makes me happy. I embrace Dressy Dramatic. :-)</p> <p>Thank you&nbsp;<b>Shevia</b>, you are so kind. I admire your fabulous second hand finds. I can imagine your suit is fantastic. The pendant is vintage made of&nbsp;gold plated tin. I bought it in the nineties and still love it.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you <b>SarahD8 </b>for the lovely compliments! Please, do try the scarf layering - it is fun! I will try to use the speckled scarf in a casual outfit. It should work nicely with olive - thanks for the idea.</p> <p><b>Sal</b>, thank you very much for your analysis! You are right, my happiness factor in outfits is usually a&nbsp;fun, playful and dramatic look. I&nbsp;have a rather conservative profession though, so I must hold back on these a little bit, trying to have fun and be appropriate at the same time. Maybe it is a good thing - it could be too much drama otherwise, LOL.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you <b>Cee</b>!</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882138 Wed, 24 Jan 2018 06:52:29 +0000 Cee 1882138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous !!!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882129 Wed, 24 Jan 2018 05:50:14 +0000 Sal 1882129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The new boots are gorgeous and I think outfit 1 is a perfect look.</p> <p>Outfit 2 - I think your changes add some "jazz" or drama to your look.&nbsp; I wonder if the original picture was too classic and missing some of the fun or drama that I do associate with your looks.&nbsp; I think the scarf and jacket were too similar maybe?&nbsp; I only say this as you ask for honest feedback and your sense of style is so excellent. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882128 Wed, 24 Jan 2018 05:44:37 +0000 SarahD8 1882128@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic boots, what a score!<br /> I love love your scarf layering, I am really going to have to try that myself.<br /> Dressy dramatic is a perfect style moniker for you!<br /> I like the snakeskin satchel very much with the second outfit. When I first saw your question about the second outfit, I thought maybe a different scarf? One with more movement...a little more drama.<br /> I would love to see the burgundy speckled scarf in a casual outfit, maybe with the olive boots? Just brainstorming.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882096 Wed, 24 Jan 2018 03:24:12 +0000 Jaime 1882096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent new boots - I like how the stripes play with the pattern on the scarf. The second outfit is also good but you probably miss having some fun pattern. The suit looks like it has an interesting texture, it reminds me of a thrifted St. Johns suit I have, but it doesn't show up so well in the picture. I love the gold pendant. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882086 Wed, 24 Jan 2018 03:00:05 +0000 jussie 1882086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dressy dramatic is very apt. The leather jacket and snakeskin bag are much better with the second outfit, they just sparked it up a few notches. Outfit one is great, again you’ve layered the scarves with perfection. The olive boots are awesome.<br /> Maybe the problem initially with the second outfit was that it was just black with fuschia, maybe too stark of a contrast? And the scarf just wasn’t “bridging” the black and the fuschia for some reason. Just thinking out loud here. Thanks for sharing your outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882080 Wed, 24 Jan 2018 02:22:00 +0000 tanstaafl 1882080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great swap on the bag. I think it will add just the right touch. And Dressy Dramatic is so you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882070 Wed, 24 Jan 2018 01:35:41 +0000 Toban 1882070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am utterly in love with your accessory use. You also have a fabulous suit wardrobe. The scarf in #3 and the necklace in #4 made me envious.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882028 Tue, 23 Jan 2018 23:44:50 +0000 Katerina 1882028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lynn, thank you so very much for your encouragement and for all your kindness </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882023 Tue, 23 Jan 2018 23:37:35 +0000 Katerina 1882023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you La Ped!</p> <p>Angie, thanks a lot for all your help today - now I am using "Dressy Dramatic" as my style moniker and it feels just right. And thanks for the great feedback on my outfits - it makes me very happy. And I also have learnt a new English term - "speckled" - that is what the structure of the material is called of course! You are my style and fashion hero. Love to you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882019 Tue, 23 Jan 2018 23:29:56 +0000 Lynn 1882019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Katrina - you really are the master @ using scarves. I love both of these outfits. Of course I say that every time but your every outfit is a hit.&nbsp;<br />The olive booties are killer.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882014 Tue, 23 Jan 2018 23:07:04 +0000 Angie 1882014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your scarf layering is amazing, <b>Katerina.</b>&nbsp;Killer skirt suit, and divine with the sporty olive boots.&nbsp;</p> <p>Shades of fuchsia, cranberry and magenta really suit you. Speckled Squared in #4 is playfully professional. Very nicely done.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882008 Tue, 23 Jan 2018 22:55:05 +0000 LaPed 1882008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your additions of pattern and detail. You have a good sense of what makes you happy. I love the new olive boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1882002 Tue, 23 Jan 2018 22:46:58 +0000 Katerina 1882002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mainelady, thank you very much, good idea! The grey bag is too serious to this office outfit, I will wear a snake&nbsp;patterned satchel instead, worn with the red leather jacket here - it is the same scarf and the bag has a lot of wine red in the pattern - yay!</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1881997 Tue, 23 Jan 2018 22:30:00 +0000 Mainelady 1881997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see a whole lot of gorgeous going on. Ooh, your new olive booties are awesome! How do they look with your hunting bag?<br /> The color in outfit #2 is glorious!. Hmmm for a happiness factor, how about a brooch or a colored bag? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/january-30x30-outfit-18-and-19-casual-suit-and-office-suit#post-1881993 Tue, 23 Jan 2018 22:21:53 +0000 Katerina 1881993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today, I<u></u> worked <u></u>from home and I&nbsp;only took a short trip to the office to pick up some documents. My new olive green boots have arrived so I decided to put together an outfit with the new boots. I found them on winter sale and thought they were fun.</p> <p>Outfit 18 (<b><u>No 1</u></b><u></u>) is a "casual suit". I used the skirt previously in my weekend kitchen sink outfit&nbsp;and now I pair it with a matching short jacket (with a black thin button down shirt underneath). The "suit" is made of soft thick kind of sportswear material. I am wearing my new olive&nbsp;suede boots and I added a little&nbsp;patterned silk scarf and a an olive thin wool scarf. Then, I added a pair of thin&nbsp;light olive green leather gloves (can't help it, even if it is just for the picture <b><u>No 2</u></b> is a detail of the accessories. I am quite happy with this&nbsp;casual combo.&nbsp;</p> <p>I also prepared my outfit for the office tomorrow - a wool suit with an asymmetrical skirt (<b><u>No 3</u></b>).&nbsp;I am planning on wearing it with a fuchsia silk top and adding a wine red wool scarf, which has a similar structure as the suit. I will wear&nbsp;black opaque tights, high heeled black booties and a grey handbag (both used in previous outfits). I&nbsp;will add&nbsp;some chunky gold jewellery - a necklace and a couple of bracelets to&nbsp;bring in&nbsp;a little shine.&nbsp;<b><u>No 4</u></b> is a detail of the necklace and the scarf.&nbsp;I am reasonably satisfied with this outfit, but it does not make me really happy... do not&nbsp;know why, maybe&nbsp;the lack of pattern or playfulness, simply too serious... </p> <p>What do you guys think? I am grateful for honest feedback, ideas and whatever comes to mind.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
