The dress has a couple of gold toned buttons at the shoulder, so I just went with that. I don't really wear gold accessories a whole lot (but I like gold equally to silver). I may have to hunt out a gold cuff.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long/page/2#post-1004584 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 01:32:14 +0000 pil 1004584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are gorgeous pieces and such rich colors on you Suz!! That sweater will be super versatile - love it in 1 and 2 - especially with the white shirt. What a stunning dress capsule you have between the cobalt sheath and this fabulous Tory Burch. Are those your gold shoes with the Tory Burch? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long/page/2#post-1004583 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 01:29:48 +0000 cciele 1004583@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That color palette is delicious on you Suz! Total win, all of it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long/page/2#post-1004579 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 01:22:24 +0000 Suz 1004579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally makes sense, Donna. Great analogy!&nbsp;</p> <p>The fit is a lot better on the new dress and so is the fabric. I am learning what a difference that makes.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long/page/2#post-1004570 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 00:56:25 +0000 DonnaF 1004570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow!&nbsp; So wonderful on you.&nbsp; Your old dress and new one aren't radically different, yet the old one doesn't do you justice at all; it somehow reminds me of your old, longer hairstyle.&nbsp; Make sense? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long/page/2#post-1004564 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 00:42:16 +0000 Nicola 1004564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All hail the Queen! Fabulous finds and especially that delicious dress. I love the neckline, the print...everything about it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long/page/2#post-1004556 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 00:32:53 +0000 Suz 1004556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you -- and I agree, the new pieces are much better. They're not necessarily more expensive, either - interestingly enough. Well, the dress is, but that was an admitted splurge.&nbsp;</p> <p>And totally worth it! (Waving at dress twin Laura!) I won't wear mine for work (since I work at home) but I will certainly wear it for dressy occasions outside work and I can also make it more casual with boots, as Laura suggests, and even a denim jacket, perhaps!&nbsp;</p> <p>Lyn, oh colour-buddy,&nbsp;that is such a great idea about the funnel neck itchy sweater! I will have to keep that in mind!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long/page/2#post-1004555 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 00:32:36 +0000 Lisa 1004555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are homerun looks.&nbsp; I really liked #1 when it was posted in real time.&nbsp; But #2, I almost fell off my chair, THAT is YOUR look!&nbsp; Love, love, love this on you.&nbsp; It has slouch, it has pattern, it has the divine cranberry color.&nbsp; This is my favorite look.&nbsp; The dress is another gorgeous piece and indeed a go anywhere item.&nbsp; A great feature to have for a dress.&nbsp; You nailed all of these.&nbsp; It's also nice to see what goes, I'm learning a lot from my own closet purge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long/page/2#post-1004520 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 23:53:29 +0000 Caro in Oz 1004520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous buys &amp; I love how you have eased them into your wardrobe. The new dress is fantastic. </p> <p>It was helpful to see the new pieces side by side with the ones they are replacing - the new ones are more modern &amp; sophisticated imo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long/page/2#post-1004517 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 23:41:57 +0000 Peri 1004517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love...especially the dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long/page/2#post-1004469 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 22:22:36 +0000 Lyn D. 1004469@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love everything about the new dress Suz!<br />I can see the booties with grey tights for the cooler weather.<br />I am with you re. itchy sweaters!&nbsp;<br />Funny story- I have a knit dress with a funnel neck that was sooo itchy. I ended up sewing the cut-off pant part of my DDs old tights into the neck :)<br />My favourite winter colours here too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long/page/2#post-1004468 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 22:20:50 +0000 Carla 1004468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great capsule, and the colour is so very flattering on you. The booties just slay me. Love everything about them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long/page/2#post-1004462 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 21:59:17 +0000 Laura 1004462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello, Tori Burch dress twin! Do you just love yours? I am so excited to see it on you! You look amazing in it! The addition of light-colored shoes is a good idea. I can see this dress getting a lot of mileage at social events as well as work -- it could be quite dressy, given the fabrication, or made a little more casual with the addition of boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long#post-1004398 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 19:55:58 +0000 Suz 1004398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marley, I think we <b>are</b> similar colouring! That is why I still want you to try the DVF sweater. I'll bet it would work on you. You're right that the blush has slight peachy tones but it reads mostly as very pale pink on me. And works (I hope!)&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for the kind compliments, everyone.&nbsp;</p> <p>Elly, I took one look at the sweater in the catalogue and knew instantly it would suit me. It has to do with the colour blocking as well as the colours. The lines are just exactly the right size/ scale.&nbsp;</p> <p>LOL, Mani!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long#post-1004395 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 19:52:30 +0000 Marley 1004395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your Ins - and - Outs are right on.&nbsp; The new pieces look so much more modern on you!&nbsp; I love this color (the cranberry) - probably because its a great color on me too (I'm wondering if we might be in the same 'color family?')&nbsp; That dress is just gorgeous Suz - makes me want to go buy it. right. now!&nbsp; Thanks for sharing.&nbsp; Its been so much fun to read and see the pics of yours and Sveta's Nordies Experience! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long#post-1004355 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 19:02:29 +0000 deb 1004355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look wonderful in these berry colors. I love the new dress! It looks much more refined than the old one. Good choice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long#post-1004351 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 19:00:00 +0000 rachylou 1004351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love outfit #2 especially. Your replacement dress is a winner, dare I say better than the first. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long#post-1004346 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 18:55:10 +0000 Vildy 1004346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm crazy about the color of that skirt - fantastic choice.&nbsp; And the coat with matching stylish booties just about makes me swoon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long#post-1004315 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 18:24:11 +0000 Elly 1004315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in these Suz. I think the plum and red colors are very flattering on you, and agree that the new items improve on any replacements . . . and colored item firsts are always fun! The dress looks smashing on you and I hope you will find it practical for winter. I also love the sweater on you, which I passed over for me . . . it suits you in a way I haven't seen it on anyone yet. </p> <p>Exciting things for fall and continued wardrobe building . . . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long#post-1004306 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 18:08:08 +0000 kellygirl 1004306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are really cultivating a gorgeous wardrobe, Suz. I love all of your replacements and really admire your taste. Each one of these is so much more refined than the replaced item. I loved the existing pieces but these replacements are just SO much better in every way. The silhouettes, the colors, the proportions are just perfect!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long#post-1004303 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 17:54:34 +0000 Anonymous 1004303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the rich cranberry tones on you Suz! 1 and 2 are fab! And that dress will be a workhorse. What a great NAS you have had! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long#post-1004279 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 17:27:23 +0000 merwoman 1004279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Big Wins!!! Congratulations Queen Cranberry! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long#post-1004267 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 17:08:57 +0000 Ingunn 1004267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, and wow again! You are stunning in berry colors. Suz, and your picks are all fabulous! The dress is super fab - now I have serious dress envy. Your mother is right, it can go anywhere.&nbsp;I hear you on not having a wardrobe that only needs replacements. I doubt that I ever will get there myself, entirely. Your rejects are well chosen, and the replacements look much more fresh and modern.&nbsp;&nbsp;I also love your new booties, no, I mean the whole ensemble with skirt and sweater, too! I predict you will be wearing these three pieces over and over the coming season, in this mix or with something else. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long#post-1004262 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 16:59:35 +0000 Missey 1004262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The second look is phenomenal! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long#post-1004258 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 16:49:32 +0000 ManidipaM 1004258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a PLUM of a winter capsule right there! Brava! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long#post-1004255 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 16:44:21 +0000 unfrumped 1004255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The skirt is a definite winner as is the color block sweater!<br />I hear you on the colors but am also finding that I need to have some "calmer" colors than bright raspberry and fuchsia. I think the plum is medium toned but&nbsp;doesn't read as &nbsp;the dreaded dusty purple. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wins-part-2-plum-berry-wine-long#post-1004254 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 16:42:04 +0000 Sveta 1004254@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been waiting for this! The pictures do not do this TB dress justice at all: it is really gorgeous and color scheme of navy and berry is to die for!<br />I also like the Amber sweater with a whoite shirt - so crisp and perfect with jeans!<br />As I already approved all these goodies in person with accolades I have nothing new to add here but Suz, you are a master of suspense building, aren't you? </p>
