And the boot love - these would go well with your (Chanel-esque?) black and white looks!</p> <p>Kimlee, if you talk like that I won't be able to leave the house as my head won't fit through the door And your compliment on the colours is noted. In my younger days I wouldn't wear yellows or shades that leaned orange. I'm so glad I do now!</p> <p>"breaking the rules with intention and love. :)" Kat, what a beautiful phrase, worthy of discussion in itself! Thankyou &lt;3</p> <p>Angie, I'm thrilled that you like my outfit! Perhaps unconsciously I feel like accessories can compete with my glasses (or I'm simply accessory-illiterate :D). I didn't realise you were leaving off accessories, and I just caught up with your "team minimal/team maximal" post. Very encouraging! ^_^</p> <p>Irene, sounds like your question is a rhetorical compliment, but I got it at a Red Cross op shop :)</p> <p>Vildy, your words are so sweet and kind. It's a very fun thought to think my clothes are lucky to have me! &lt;33</p> <p>Jonesy, thanks so much for your encouragement! It is indeed autumnal. And although it's Spring here we had a wild, stormy week so I think I'm getting away with it!</p> <p>Goldenpig, Goldenpig, Goldenpig! You look perfect in your mini and I would love to wear them together (teehee, used to do that with my best friend at school! Never popped into our minds to be mad the other one was wearing the same thing!). It will have to be a transatlantic date though Thanks for your lovely and sweet compliments! We can both wear our glasses too ^_^</p> <p>Happyschinken, thanks for looking and commenting! ^_^ Turkey Vulture, thankyou so much for your positivity and yes! You don't really know until you put it on, do you? Airin, I'm glad you're honest about the skirt giving you pause You paid a compliment to me more than the item, which is pretty darn awesome :D</p> <p>Freckles, thankyou! &lt;3 and I'm appreciating the opinions regarding accessories. Makes sense to let one eyecatching element be the focus, no?</p> <p>Sammi and Aida, I do love it with the Fryes too! Again, Aida, it's great to hear some reinforcement re the lack of accessories (although I fail at accessories even not wearing brights lol).</p> <p>I love the idea of bright studs, but my ears aren't pierced. Maybe I should... (trembles at the lifechangingness of it). I LOVE the suggestion of a cuff/watch and have been wondering for a while if I would feel more comfortable in one compared to other jewellery. Waving back at you with my curls! I love seeing yours too ♥</p> <p>Alaskagirl, thankyou so much! I could totally see you in this skirt - what fun it would be to see how you style it!</p> <p>♥ ♥ ♥ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-433453 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 21:42:34 +0000 catgirl 433453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay, a Fruitful post! You need to post more often! </p> <p>I would probably try to steal this skirt from you if I could... it is so much fun between the colors, the style, and the PLAID. Sassy, sassy. Love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-433405 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 21:27:32 +0000 Aida 433405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So cute! The outfit is, too I really love it with the flat Fryes (probably due to my liking both roughness and polish paired in an outfit). No need to feel like this outfit needs accessories, the minimalist in me likes it just like this; the skirt gets to be the focal point this way. If you really wanted to add some though, I would say some bright studs and a wide cuff/watch. *waves to fellow curly haired gal* I think a messy bun would look awesome with this outfit! Thanks for posting, hope this means that you'll post more now that the ice is broken }:D </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-433080 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 16:03:46 +0000 Anonymous 433080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute! I really like it with the red coat. And I actually prefer the vibe of your Fryes with this! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-433006 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 15:00:35 +0000 Freckles 433006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab! I'm with everyone else that you don't need a bunch of accessories with this one. It doesn't look minimalistic due to the bright colours I think.</p> <p>Gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-432996 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 14:47:42 +0000 Irene 432996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll confess and say that I wouldn't have thought it possible to wear that skirt in a stylish way. But you have done so, and very well. And you are so cute!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-432989 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 14:40:02 +0000 Turkey Vulture 432989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This skirt looks GREAT on you!! Just goes to show you should try everything on, even if it's supposed to be against your body type. You look awesome...so fun and cute and retro! I love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-432982 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 14:23:45 +0000 Happyschinken 432982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-432981 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 14:23:26 +0000 goldenpig 432981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>O.<br /> M.<br /> G.<br /> You rock!

You're so beautiful and I love your hair and your glasses.<br /> Let's go out on a double date with our minis and paint the town plaid!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-432963 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 13:50:37 +0000 Jonesy 432963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How fab and autumnal! This is such a great, unique look--nothing cookie cutter about you or your style! It's great to see you post some pics! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-432959 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 13:46:08 +0000 Vildy 432959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kat's right: verve aplenty! They'd make millions if they could sell *that* to people.<br /> You look to me here like one of those people who enhance *the clothes* and don't<br /> need the clothes to be propping you up. The clothes are lucky to have you! (that doesn't mean I don't like them for themselves!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-432957 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 13:44:38 +0000 Irene 432957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Where did you get that skirt? I want it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-432951 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 13:36:01 +0000 Angie 432951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How nice to see you post an outfit, Fruitful!</p> <p>This skirt is not against your body type at all. The shape is very flattering. And I LOVE the colours!</p> <p>Killer specs are more than enough so don't worry about being accessory shy - I like leaving off all my accessories these days too :)</p> <p>Super outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-432887 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 12:28:24 +0000 Kat 432887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous colors on you! And I'm not sure you need more polish--I'd say your sass and your smile give the outfit just the right amount of verve. I think you look great and love that your are breaking the rules with intention and love. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-432883 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 12:23:12 +0000 kimlee 432883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dare I say this is K-word worthy look. The colors of the skirt just make your skin glow. I love how you styled it with the Frye boots. Fab, fab, fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-432880 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 12:21:11 +0000 Deborah 432880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fruitful you look fantastic! I love this. The colours are so good on you and the cream and the white boots are both incredible. I would kill for cream go go boots. I think this look is very flattering on you. Its youthful and has quite an edge. You should wear this often xxx </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/plaid-mini-for-goldenpig#post-432871 Thu, 29 Sep 2011 12:03:05 +0000 Fruitful 432871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In response to this conversation: <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-i-still-wear-this-miniskirt" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....-miniskirt</a></p> <p>I wore this skirt today.</p> <p>I know it's against my body type (loud pattern on my pear bottom half, heavy fabric) but I love it for the colours and vibe. I bought it years ago at an op shop and still like having it in rotation. It's clearly handmade (no tags, lining or overlocking).</p> <p>It's the first time wearing it with this (secondhand) top, which is also out of type - doesn't lengthen my neck, doesn't broaden my shoulders, and it sits a little thick on the waist. But somehow I like it too :)</p> <p>#1 is how I left the house - I wore the jacket -plus easy flat Fryes (and bare legs, no tights - I burnt my knee on the heater today and had to go to the supermarket while clutching an ice pack!).</p> <p>#2 is how I wish I could wear it, but though these (secondhand - I bought them with the top!) boots look perfect (to me) they are rubbish plastic which started cracking the first time I wore them.</p> <p>I think the whole look deserves more polish, especially with hair. That's a distant dream lol ^_^. And new glasses :). And maybe accessories but I'm accessory-shy I had fun wearing it though!</p> <p>Thanks Goldenpig for the prompt, and thanks everyone else for looking. Comments and thoughts are appreciated! </p>
