I'm not sure about the booties, but then again I have very few shoes so I'm probably not the right person to judge them </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-denim-vest-and-milky-black-booties#post-575373 Fri, 23 Mar 2012 03:23:08 +0000 ManidipaM 575373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not stumpifying, nor too young, and both pieces are great on their own, I think --- if anyone can pull off that vest, it IS you! The only thing giving me pause about the outfit is the striped top. Would black on black be too much or too dissonant with the vest? What colour is the collar exactly --- can that cue you to a different shirt? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-denim-vest-and-milky-black-booties#post-575308 Fri, 23 Mar 2012 02:31:21 +0000 sarah 575308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AJ - something about the vest doesn't seem quite "you" - it seems like it's trying to hard to be RATE or something. Just my two cents... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-denim-vest-and-milky-black-booties#post-575250 Fri, 23 Mar 2012 01:50:02 +0000 Suz 575250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, AJ, I LOVE the booties. The colour is amazing. To me, they are not stumpifying on you whatsoever (you have such lovely legs, if it is not too weird to say so), but I do think they would be better still with trousers. Definitely keep them and wear them; the colour is so fab. </p> <p>I like the idea of the vest more than the vest itself. LOVE the collar and think the shape of the whole thing is great on you, but like Angie I am not sure about it with the crisp stripes. I do think you can make it work, however. It's not too young. </p> <p>By the way, that skirt is very nice on you, too, and I like the striped shirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-denim-vest-and-milky-black-booties#post-575190 Fri, 23 Mar 2012 00:47:35 +0000 Aida 575190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm I think the vest has potential. I don't mind the distressing on it, but because of how much there is I would probably make it the only "tough" element in an outfit. So for #1, I'd probably swap to flats. The boots are AWESOME, totally keepers! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-denim-vest-and-milky-black-booties#post-575189 Fri, 23 Mar 2012 00:45:57 +0000 Angie 575189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh no! I'm about to be a huge spanner :(. Must be this AWFUL Spring weather in Seattle. </p> <p>I really like the vest, but not with the stripes. Try a more tonal outfit. I think it could be cool in that special AJ way. </p> <p>I like the boots, but not on bare legs. Just feel that the tops are too wide. Sorry :(. Would look great with trousers and skinnies though. In that way they are fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-denim-vest-and-milky-black-booties#post-575149 Fri, 23 Mar 2012 00:23:48 +0000 Jonesy 575149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Anna. Something about the patchy distressing on the vest seems "juniors" to me. Just my two cents :). Love, love, love the booties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-denim-vest-and-milky-black-booties#post-575086 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 23:37:22 +0000 annagybe 575086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the booties. Not really keen on the vest. The distressing looks too forced. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-denim-vest-and-milky-black-booties#post-575081 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 23:34:55 +0000 Jjsloane 575081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the striped tee and skirt and booties. I am not sure on the vest and maybe just with this combo. The fit is good, but the wash gives me pause as does the collar (is it brown leather?). Something doesn't quite sing to me. Maybe with something girlier like eyelet or white gauze and lace? I'm grasping because I do like the fit on you. Maybe you need to dye it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-denim-vest-and-milky-black-booties#post-575041 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 23:04:39 +0000 AJ 575041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Rae - Yes I think you are right about the darker collar helping with my IT shoulders.</p> <p>@Inge - This dusty finish is the only thing that is making me hesitate to keep.</p> <p>@Krishnidoux - So it looks OK to pair with black skirt but not black top? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-denim-vest-and-milky-black-booties#post-575026 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 22:39:35 +0000 krishnidoux 575026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for keep! Love this style,not too young at all. Legs look great.<br /> I think the vest looks good, with its collar detail. I wouldn't pair it with black though (although here it works).<br /> To me, the boots look fine even if they are gaping. They don't look too big nor uncomfortable. And they complete the outfit's funky, punky-chic style. But the question is : how comfortable are you in them? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-denim-vest-and-milky-black-booties#post-575015 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 22:29:37 +0000 Inge 575015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this skirt silhouette on you, AJ, and the booties look fab. I'm not the biggest fan of the dusty finish on the denim waistcoat, but you are making it work here with the striped top.<br /> Sounds like you have a fun weekend ahead!-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-denim-vest-and-milky-black-booties#post-575009 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 22:21:52 +0000 rae 575009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, I love the vest! I really do think the collar helps create a narrower shoulder, especially with the low contrast top underneath. </p> <p>Outfit and booties are also a go in my book! </p> <p>Man, I really like the vest! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-denim-vest-and-milky-black-booties#post-575005 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 22:15:11 +0000 AJ 575005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Recently, I mentioned that I ordered a dress and denim vest:<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/planning-for-summer-wear" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....ummer-wear</a></p> <p>The dress was too big and shapeless despite ordering a small, so back it goes. The denim vest on the otherhand has potential.</p> <p>1) How I would like to wear it either for a luncheon on Friday or for an egg hunt on Sunday.</p> <p>2-4 views of vest</p> <p>5-6 Thrifted these black booties. I really like the milky wash to them.</p> <p>Questions:<br /> 1) How's the outfit? Too young? Cut the leg line too much?</p> <p>2) The beige/dusty finish on this vest makes me unsure. Do you think it's still versatile? Does it look off when paired with black?</p> <p>3) How do the booties look with my skinny legs and ankles?</p> <p>Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks for stopping by! </p>
