Love the pulled up pants, the asymmetric hem,&nbsp;the contrast between the top and the more rugged shoes and leather jacket, the shades of blue with that fab bag… Great inspiration to see how you are wearing those sandals too (I'm taking notes because I can always use extra ideas on how to wear my white Birkies). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1262123 Tue, 27 May 2014 15:25:26 +0000 jackiec 1262123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like how you've toughened up the dots! The pants look great pushed up like that too. I'm off of dots as well, so can totally relate. Filing for the future. Love the bag </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1262096 Tue, 27 May 2014 14:38:01 +0000 JG 1262096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab and educational! I'm feeling buyer's remorse over my dotted items, some never worn, so I'm taking notes here. I can't come close to a copycat so I'll try for a Ms.Mary-like interpretation. Dots/androgeny/sour color/ leather/edgy silhouette. Going to be a challenge. From now on, while shopping, I'm just saying no to "dotty sweetness!" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1262069 Tue, 27 May 2014 14:19:03 +0000 leopardluxe 1262069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great look! I think the edgier elements do a great job of counteracting any "overt whimsy" from the polka dots.&nbsp;</p> <p>Who'd have thought polka dots and edgy could play nice together --but you prove that they can and do&nbsp;;-) YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1262067 Tue, 27 May 2014 14:18:07 +0000 TraceyLiz65 1262067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Polk a dots is a surprise from you, but your styling is wonderful. I can't imagine wearing a moto right now as Summer temps have arrived! &nbsp;Love that purse! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1262062 Tue, 27 May 2014 14:14:37 +0000 texstyle 1262062@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I may be biased because I have a soft spot for dots, but I like this and think you have made it yours with the jacket, pants,&nbsp;and&nbsp;shoes. The bright bag is great too.&nbsp;I wonder&nbsp;if you might also be able to wear this top with a vest?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1261395 Mon, 26 May 2014 15:13:18 +0000 Angie 1261395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Killer</p> <p>You are going to have me with that bag every. single. time.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1261310 Mon, 26 May 2014 12:55:47 +0000 Anonymous 1261310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You did a fabulous job of making these pieces work for you. The outfit looks very stylish with your Rae touch. To my eye, I wouldn't change a thing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1261169 Mon, 26 May 2014 02:44:41 +0000 Jenava 1261169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pants are really flattering on you!&nbsp; I love the length and the zippers undone to make the hems asymmetrical.<br />The top looks good with these.&nbsp; If you hadn't mentioned the print I would have not thought anything of it...but I am with you on not loving dotted things.&nbsp; So I get it.&nbsp; But FWIW it looks great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1261153 Mon, 26 May 2014 02:25:07 +0000 Jaime 1261153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great job in pulling up your pants! I think you off set the dottiness of the dots very nicely, but maybe you just aren't a dotty type? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1261109 Mon, 26 May 2014 01:24:07 +0000 Janet 1261109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this treatment of the pants -- I thought they were capris with a cool asymmetrical hem! And yay! It's nice to see that top get some wear. I'm really picky about polka dots these days, so I understand. My pants the other day were dotted, but it's a random pattern, and broken up with the tuxedo stripe. I think the jacket toughens up the dots really well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1261081 Mon, 26 May 2014 00:45:33 +0000 Aida 1261081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks good, though have to say the polka dots surprised me a bit. I've all but eliminated them from my wardrobe because I never quite feel right in them. Too sweet? Not retro in a way that I wear? I can't figure&nbsp;out the why.&nbsp;I think the capri-ed harem pants work really well, and paired with the moto and birkie-lookalikes you offset the dotty sweetness pretty well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1261078 Mon, 26 May 2014 00:43:04 +0000 columbine(erin) 1261078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like what you did here! Taking notes because I have a couple polka dot tops that need some help. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1261073 Mon, 26 May 2014 00:37:28 +0000 MsLuna 1261073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is such a sweet yet tough combination! Polka dots for the sweetness and the jacket and Birks add some edge! Love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1261072 Mon, 26 May 2014 00:36:53 +0000 lyn* 1261072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So adorable - you know I love dots and the navy with the lemon is delicious!</p> <p>Get some rest, Rae ;3 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1261071 Mon, 26 May 2014 00:35:57 +0000 Deborah 1261071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae I think this does look great.&nbsp; Polka dots is not something I would necessarily 'expect' to see on you but you&nbsp;have made the top work to your style requirements.&nbsp; I really like the way you have pulled up the trouser legs that looks really cool. </p> <p>I find I have gone off polka dots and spots completely.&nbsp; I have kept one blouse,&nbsp; 'just because' but I really need to edge up the overall look to be happy in it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/motorcycle-polka#post-1261065 Mon, 26 May 2014 00:32:27 +0000 rae 1261065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yesterday. Took the pics but was too exhausted to post legibly.&nbsp;I keep avoiding this top because of the whimsical print, even though it is otherwise super flattering and awesome (shout out to the Shoptoberfest swap party!), so I thought I'd try it with a tough moto.&nbsp;I was also kind of worried about the baggy pants looking clownish with the dots, so I pulled them up like capris. Can't find the jacket on a site that accepts Finds, so <a rel="nofollow" href="http://us.aritzia.com/kenya-jacket/35005.html">here is the link</a> (mine is from Ebay). Did I do okay? This is quite the different silhouette from the tailored legginess of the other day.&nbsp;<br />Mackage for Aritzia Kenya jacket - Ebay<br />Dotty top - YLF Swap Party<br />Vince harem pants - Nordies<br />Kate Spade satchel - Ebay<br />Knockoff somethingorother necklace - flea market<br />Crocs Cobbler Wedge sandals - Amazon</p> </p>
