It seems that we are on the same page actually. I am looking for some knee high suede gray boots, but no luck so far. I want them to match my favorite winter handbag (find 1), but it is so difficult to get the correct gray when online shopping. &nbsp;And I am also in the market for new white hand bag which is my default for summer. My current one (find 2) is ready for retirement, white handbags are very sensitive and not long lasting, at least in my case. I have my eye on this handbag (find 3) but unfortunately it has gold hardware, and I would prefer silver. &nbsp;<br />And yes I do paint my nails, wearing chanel orage ( pic 1) at the moment, nice dark gray color. And my favorite scarf is pic 2, goes with almost everything.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw---improve-the-outfit-challenge/page/2#post-1602362 Fri, 15 Jan 2016 08:59:34 +0000 Sally 1602362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like your hair and the outfit looks solphisticated. As others suggested, a scarf or necklace could be a nice touch if you wanted to play around with different looks </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw---improve-the-outfit-challenge/page/2#post-1602333 Fri, 15 Jan 2016 07:18:01 +0000 Gigi 1602333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing!

Or silver tote (might be easier to find than silver shoes)?&nbsp;</p> <p>If you want to introduce an additional texture, how about suede boots rather than leather?&nbsp;</p> <p>Also, an unexpected color on your nails, if you paint them? I wear a lot of black and grey and this winter have been enjoying "tuxedo gray" (a pretty charcoal grey) or a very dark, almost black, purple.&nbsp;</p> <p>Scarves are always good too! Could be a solid but you could also get away with a pattern. Maybe a floral or abstract? Bring in colors that are similar to your lips or eyes? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw---improve-the-outfit-challenge/page/2#post-1601495 Wed, 13 Jan 2016 08:26:59 +0000 anchie 1601495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, ladies, you are THE greatest!

Ha! &nbsp;Add me to the list of those thinking you look terrific here. Great dress, great jacket, and the boots are just fine for a winter look. &nbsp;Your hair colour is gorgeous too. &nbsp;I'm not personally a fan of silver metallic footwear, and would go with patent , suede or a mix of any black textures for a dressier footwear look. &nbsp;That's just a personal thing though - and I'm simply presenting an alternative viewpoint. &nbsp;I love jewellery with a leather jacket - it can really up the luxe factor and add sparkle and polish (which is sometimes deadened around the face by leather jackets). Anyways - nice to see this post from you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw---improve-the-outfit-challenge#post-1601356 Tue, 12 Jan 2016 23:00:43 +0000 Caro in Oz 1601356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF - love your hair </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-wiw---improve-the-outfit-challenge#post-1601317 Tue, 12 Jan 2016 21:57:07 +0000 Cococat 1601317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look great in your outfit and the tall boots are perfect. </p> <p>The only thing I could suggest would be jewelry or a long skinny scarf.

LOVE your hair. I agree a small change would be some lighter elements but you are on your way with silver shoes.
