Why do I find too much jewelry too much but not bright colors and patterns?

I would probably think it was a bit much if I tried it on, but I love it. The necklaces look great on you. I will now try items and combos that I initially write off as a bit much. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-of-winter---wiw#post-2257376 Thu, 31 Mar 2022 14:14:27 +0000 kellygirl 2257376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have the most amazing fashion sense!

I love my lace up combat boots, but I agree - sometimes it is good to have a more subtle edge without the extra detail of the laces.<br /><b>Angie</b> - </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-of-winter---wiw#post-2257317 Wed, 30 Mar 2022 18:01:01 +0000 Angie 2257317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*happy dance* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-of-winter---wiw#post-2257299 Wed, 30 Mar 2022 16:05:55 +0000 Zaeobi 2257299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These looks are all great on you - the pearls feel *a smidge* much alongside the rest of what's going on at the neckline in that outfit, but that might just be due to the fact that I'm still getting used to my own new pearl necklace (which is only 'half' a pearl necklace, the rest is gold lol) &amp; the traditionally 'formal' connotations of pearls. </p> <p>For me though, the MVP is your black boots in #2 &amp; #3 - where are they from? They add just the right amount of edge whilst not competing with the softer lines in your look (like your hair). Wonderful shape on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-of-winter---wiw#post-2257232 Wed, 30 Mar 2022 03:03:40 +0000 Jaime 2257232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your comments are delightful as ever and I thank you all very much for indulging me!&nbsp;<br /><b>slim cat</b> and <b>RobinF</b>- I was so excited to see those mules- I own the exact ones in more than one color but not blue! Yes, I was delighted to match my new old piece with some old, old pieces in my closet.<br />Thank you <b>rachy</b>! I am naturally inclined on the side of <b>kkards</b> and <b>Jenni NZ </b>in feeling that it is too much, but sometimes it is good to challenge my inclinations.<br /><b>Mirjana</b> - Thank you! You have a wonderful eye for detail and I always appreciate your thoughts.<br /><b>Cardiff girl</b> - Exactly! Experimenting is always worthwhile.<br /><b>merwoman</b> - Ha! You would think so but I always hesitate to buy stuff that I think will make the store more appealing. Actually it is my family that benefits because I find more essentials for them.<br />Thank you <b>Lana and everyone who mentioned my hair</b><b></b>! I am still not over how much my hair, which was never noticed or notable most of my life, has become my best feature!<br /><b>Indigoprint</b> - I am delighted that you like it!<br /><b>Jonesy</b> - Thank you for noticing all the little details that are usually only appreciated by me.

They are hard to find in Thrift Stores but you have given me an idea of what to do with mine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-of-winter---wiw#post-2257188 Tue, 29 Mar 2022 19:39:11 +0000 Jonesy 2257188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first outfit is sooo good! I love the JPG print top, and you have paired it with such perfect pieces! The tailoring on the SM jacket is gorgeous, and I love those pants (as I believe I have mentioned before, lol). Personally, I LOVE the pearl/gold link necklace here--it looks very chicly nonchalant and works so well with the other elements (and your hair). I have been enjoying bold jewelry more lately, so I say, pile it on! I love that patterned cardigan too. You are the Thrifting Queen! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-of-winter---wiw#post-2257163 Tue, 29 Mar 2022 17:16:43 +0000 kkards 2257163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>another fab set of outfits!<br />love all 3...i'm not a jewelry person, so while i like the pearls in #2, i think the outfit would have been just as fab without them...&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-of-winter---wiw#post-2257140 Tue, 29 Mar 2022 15:16:15 +0000 Angie 2257140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>THE PEARLS!!!&nbsp;</p> <p>*happy dance*</p> <p>I'm smiling at how fably you wear them!

But it’s hard to see the pearls &amp; necklace combination in the photo.

The top in first ensemble is so nice, not lost but I understand what you mean, it should be great without jacket. The jacket is perfect with this top. I like pearls, you know so great with #2. Beautiful cardigan and you styled it perfect. Blue mules are adorable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-of-winter---wiw#post-2257098 Tue, 29 Mar 2022 06:45:12 +0000 rachylou 2257098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have never heard of Dale of Norway, but that cardigan is a huuuuge Yes from me!

It really works. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-of-winter---wiw#post-2257095 Tue, 29 Mar 2022 04:07:24 +0000 slim cat 2257095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits! The jacket looks perfect on you and the top is not lost in ensemble. Fun necklace in #2 and pretty blue mules ( love that happy color )! Fab cardigan in #3 and wonderful hair in every picture ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-of-winter---wiw#post-2257090 Tue, 29 Mar 2022 02:42:55 +0000 Jaime 2257090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It has started to warm up, and these may be my last wintery outfits for a while - although one never knows!<br />1. I splurged a bit on a vintage Jean Paul Gaultier skirt set that I was planning to wear to a wedding, but we ended up not attending. So I wore the top to the thrift store with my trusty Ann D. black pants, a thrifted Stella McCartney jacket and second hand Shoto boots. I really like this outfit although the beauty of the top is somewhat lost here.<br />2. Went a bit crazy and decided to wear this thrifted faux pearl and faux gold Betsey Johnson necklace with this look - not sure if I will do that again. I am here at a consignment shop and those blue mules on the bench came home with me.<br />3. To my shock and delight, I recently found a second Dale of Norway vintage cardigan at a thrift store. So good for the cold shop!</p> <p>What do you think of the necklace in #2? I am trying to expand my accessory repertoire, but this was a lot for me. No one I saw batted an eyelash - which is always a good reminder! All suggestions, reactions, questions or whatever welcome!</p>
