Yes, stripes--I can't resist them.</p> <p>Thanks, Columbine. These culottes were in the donate bag when I spotted a Goop article on how to wear them and rekindled my love for them. Bermudas emphasize my long thighs/short calves ratio, but in these bottoms it's all good.</p> <p>Ha Rachy thought you'd appreciate the "yar". Once it was stuck in my head it wouldn't leave.</p> <p>JAileen I prefer the Hepburn to the Kelly version too. Although there's a wee bit of Grace in the outfit inspiration too I think.</p> <p>Anchie I noticed the lookalike hair too! I'm hoping you post more WIWs to inspire me.</p> <p>Thank you Sally. I do start my day thinking What would Kate wear... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lookin-mighty-yar#post-1715399 Wed, 17 Aug 2016 08:46:59 +0000 Sally 1715399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i do like those culottes. &nbsp;I think it is a very Katherine Hepburn worthy outfit. &nbsp;Nice that you were able to wear to the office too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lookin-mighty-yar#post-1715397 Wed, 17 Aug 2016 08:43:43 +0000 anchie 1715397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your outfit. It seems that we are hair twins?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lookin-mighty-yar#post-1715345 Wed, 17 Aug 2016 03:55:33 +0000 JAileen 1715345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That line is from Philadelphia Story isn't it? I think she would have worn your outfit. BTW, I prefer Philadelphia Story with Katherine Hepburn, Cary Grant and Jimmy Stewart to the remake, High Society, with Grace Kelly, Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lookin-mighty-yar#post-1715323 Wed, 17 Aug 2016 02:44:58 +0000 rachylou 1715323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Points alone for getting 'yar' into a thread title Spot on preppy, and Kate is an ultimate prep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lookin-mighty-yar#post-1715318 Wed, 17 Aug 2016 02:38:13 +0000 columbine(erin) 1715318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the length of your culottes, it's very flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lookin-mighty-yar#post-1715310 Wed, 17 Aug 2016 02:23:59 +0000 Jaime 1715310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There really is something about stripes. Love this outfit regardless of who you are channeling. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lookin-mighty-yar#post-1715305 Wed, 17 Aug 2016 02:12:51 +0000 L'Abeille 1715305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is not my official Katharine Hepburn icon challenge outfit (I'm still seeking the best look to copy) but I definitely had her in mind when I got dressed. This was for a day at the office, and in the evening out for a sail (so getting myself in the mood). I was planning on the same white pants I wore for Ines, but then my preppy white culottes called out to me. (Later for sailing I changed into Kate-worthy practical baggy khakis.)</p> <p>Shoes are the leopard flats and navy block heeled loafers (I often change footwear mid-day to keep the feet happy).</p> <p>By the way, the marinière is Joe Fresh and everything else is thrifted. I've had the white culottes for so long, I can't even remember for sure. </p>
