I also tend to be very general and emotion-related in my choice of style descriptors, like "competent" , "approachable" and "tactile". Is this picture you have posted typical of how you normally dress? If so, the words that come to mind are "practically polished" or "polishedly practical".<br /> The outfit and colour combination looks great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290912 Thu, 10 Nov 2022 19:59:32 +0000 Katerina 2290912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great outfit!

A very relaxed, urban chic look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290434 Tue, 08 Nov 2022 14:15:00 +0000 Mirjana 2290434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fantastic, great color combo.

I like the column of grey enlightened by the white graphic and combined with the colour of that beautiful jacket. I also like the booties. I am not good with style descriptors, for what it's worth I see a practical but playful and creative style.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290378 Tue, 08 Nov 2022 08:59:26 +0000 Sisi 2290378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous! I like the column of grey enlightened by the white graphic and combined with that very-well-made&nbsp; "pumpkin" jacket. I also like your booties. I am not good with styled descriptors, for what it's worth I see Playful Practical or Polished Casual. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290362 Tue, 08 Nov 2022 05:36:01 +0000 Anonymous 2290362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Angie. &nbsp;The dark orange with grey is fabulous on you. &nbsp;You could also see if you like rusty colors or cognac. &nbsp;They are also not so bright but in the orange family. &nbsp;So is peach and sometimes salmon on the other end ( light rather than dark but can be made less bright by grey.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290339 Tue, 08 Nov 2022 02:03:14 +0000 Jaime 2290339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the color combination on you!

Always wanted to try it but never had both colors at the same time in my wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290271 Mon, 07 Nov 2022 18:39:37 +0000 RobinF 2290271@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz - good point about actual vs aspirational.</p> <p>Thanks Helena - I do like the idea of non-precious I am definitely in the RATE club.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290258 Mon, 07 Nov 2022 17:54:58 +0000 Helena 2290258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a great colour combo - YLF! </p> <p></p> <p>FWIW, I see&nbsp; casually polished and practical in this outfit ... and something else, a bit of an edge or a non-preciousness about the pieces you chose. Not quite sure the word I mean but will keep thinking!!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290246 Mon, 07 Nov 2022 16:37:49 +0000 Suz 2290246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, this is a gorgeous combination...you look fantastic! I love the grey with the burnt orange. It's beautiful with your hair. Definitely post some more and we will weigh in with adjectives!&nbsp;</p> <p>Also -- recall, there is actual style and aspirational style.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290245 Mon, 07 Nov 2022 16:36:31 +0000 Anonymous 2290245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great color combo! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290242 Mon, 07 Nov 2022 16:29:21 +0000 RobinF 2290242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all!</p> <p>ChristelJ - good question. I struggle with the descriptors and have not been able to come up with them. In my mind is a few that a very vague like "casual" and "easy". I like ones like "urban" but not sure I actually dress that way :)&nbsp; I'll have to do a post for ideas. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290241 Mon, 07 Nov 2022 16:09:04 +0000 Bonnie 2290241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this shade of orange and it goes perfectly with your grays. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290238 Mon, 07 Nov 2022 15:53:02 +0000 ChristelJ 2290238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your shade of orange is perfect for you, and so good with your greys. I think you look very stylish indeed! What descriptors might you be leaning towards? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290232 Mon, 07 Nov 2022 14:45:56 +0000 kellygirl 2290232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree with Angie.

Terrific WIW! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290231 Mon, 07 Nov 2022 14:41:50 +0000 Angie 2290231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is burnt orange - bordering on cinnamon - &nbsp;and you wear it well! You wear grey well too! It's a slam-dunk with your cute hair.</p> <p>SOOOO NICE to see you post! And looking fantastic, of course. KILLER jacket </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/orange-wiw#post-2290228 Mon, 07 Nov 2022 14:36:34 +0000 RobinF 2290228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Monday!</p> <p>I have been trying to take some more daily outfit pictures lately (in the hopes of finally coming up with some descriptors for my style) and just happen to have this from last week. I don't wear much orange because it feels too bright on me, but I like this darker shade.</p> <p>Not super stylish gray jeans but they get a lot of use because they are a great neutral for me.&nbsp;</p> <p>Comments and advice always welcome!</p>
