I simply can't pick a fave! The dress with the Star Ling boots perhaps? Love your boots in the final outfit though - they fit you perfectly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-111131 Wed, 16 Dec 2009 01:33:39 +0000 shiny 111131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks San - I switched hair dressers Thanksgiving week! I've been too busy to post about that saga. It's the same basic cut idea, but I am liking this new hairdresser - she's faster, more efficient, and really chatty (which I miss). She wants me to go more red next time.. I may try it... </p> <p>I tried on the two new BR dresses today, at home. The black one is definitely a keeper, and I'm hoping to wear it tomorrow. The other one... I still don't know. It looks different to me in my home mirror... BR mirrors and lighting aren't the best! Ugh.... I may end up returning afterall, which would be a pity because in theory I do like the idea of this dress... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-111094 Tue, 15 Dec 2009 20:57:28 +0000 Anonymous 111094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG your new dresses are beautiful. I guess one of them is a tunic. I can't wait to see how you style these. The black dress looks like it will be very flattering.<br /> I forgot to mention that your hair looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-111088 Tue, 15 Dec 2009 20:46:42 +0000 Angie 111088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*tickled* Let's see them on sassy you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-111087 Tue, 15 Dec 2009 20:45:21 +0000 Angie 111087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>woopsie.

I particularly love the dress with the Star Lings. It looks GREAT on you. Dark purple is such a great color for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-111024 Tue, 15 Dec 2009 16:56:12 +0000 shiny 111024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Secondhand- I admit I'm still getting used to the look of short boots too. </p> <p>Jenny, Bella and Tanya - thanks! </p> <p>Debora - I'm not sure if it's RL, it is quite probable. I wanted to incorporate just a bit of gold jewelry into my wardrobe this season, so I picked out this shorter necklace and a longer one. I think I still prefer silver, but gold is nice for a change, and I was inspired by Angie to pair gold with these Star Ling boots, to pull the outfit together. </p> <p>Angie - you will be tickled to know that I purchased two new frocks this weekend, both from BR: </p> <p><a href="http://bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=41559&#038;vid=1&#038;pid=692388" rel="nofollow">http://bananarepublic.gap.com/.....pid=692388</a><br /> I know this is yet another black dress, but I don't own an LBD that has sleeves! Plus, the fabric is absolutely sumptuous, and the fit is very flattering. </p> <p>I also bit the bullet and finally bought this one, which I know you love, after trying it on something like 4x's and debating endlessly with myself:<br /> <a href="http://bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=50134&#038;vid=1&#038;pid=693858" rel="nofollow">http://bananarepublic.gap.com/.....pid=693858</a><br /> I'm hoping to get DH to take some photos soon, for YLF approval! I am still worried it may be too short, but I want to try it with the Star Lings, or over the black ponte knit pants? It's a very very different look for me... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-110958 Tue, 15 Dec 2009 06:59:14 +0000 Angie 110958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh! It’s so nice to see you post your outfits again, Shiny! They all score a KILLER rating and I’m especially all over the frock with the Star Lings. My favourite outfit :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-110923 Tue, 15 Dec 2009 04:04:46 +0000 bella 110923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are the queen of skinny jean + pattern top + jacket look! I actually bought two patterned tops recently because of how great you look in them. I posted an outfit in my recent looks thread.<br /> I also love that the BR dress finally came out to play. It is perfection!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-110888 Tue, 15 Dec 2009 02:36:42 +0000 Debora 110888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shiny- you look like a little doll! Love all your outfits but especially your new long cardi with the AT blouse. Is that the Ralph Lauren circle necklace in pic #7? It looks just like one that I bought at the NAS, but then exchanged for gray pearls. It looks wonderful on you! I'm kicking myself now for returning it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-110878 Tue, 15 Dec 2009 02:18:25 +0000 Tanya 110878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All the outfits are wonderful Shiny! I really love outfit #3, the playing with textures.<br /> And there is no pic for the #5. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-110855 Tue, 15 Dec 2009 01:29:24 +0000 JennyK (NC) 110855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - I love your sense of style! All of those outfits look great. I also really love those animal print shoes. Although I can see that you are petite, everything you wear is proportioned perfectly! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-110850 Tue, 15 Dec 2009 01:04:10 +0000 Secondhand Shopaholic 110850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love outfit #7. Love the necklace, and thank you for showing me how cute short boots are with dresses. I can't seem to get beyond tall boots when I show some leg, however time and time again, I see how good it works. You are adorable! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-110764 Mon, 14 Dec 2009 21:03:02 +0000 chewyspaghetti 110764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shiny- maybe it's because of your inverted triangle tendencies? Something that doesn't have volume at the top or shoulder may work better for you.</p> <p>These are great outfits- and I love the giraffe print shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-110760 Mon, 14 Dec 2009 20:52:34 +0000 shiny 110760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>San, I think the secret was finding just the right long cardigan. So many of them overwhelm my petite figure, especially if worn unbelted. I was thrilled to find - not one but two- that fit just right at AT Outlet, and actually look best without a belt. </p> <p>This weekend I bought a long sweater vest from BR... so that will soon be in the mix too... </p> <p>I'm still not sold on the cascading cardi look... I will say I'm "warming up to it." I have persisted in trying them on, but something doesn't work right for me. I feel top heavy in them? The cascades seem to add too much to my chest? That's all I can figure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-110741 Mon, 14 Dec 2009 20:04:12 +0000 taylor 110741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG... looking so fab, you are Killing me here") Those animal print shoes...those shoes, must have those shoes!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-110738 Mon, 14 Dec 2009 19:46:34 +0000 Anonymous 110738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fantastic in your new cardigan!!! I love it. How fun to see your transition from cropped cardis to longer cardis. It's so good to see you again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-outfits-5#post-110735 Mon, 14 Dec 2009 19:33:09 +0000 shiny 110735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been lazy about posting outfit photos - and even lazier about taking photos! But here are a few that have been sitting on my camera for weeks. Not much is new here. I'm mostly working my wardrobe and trying to get as many outfit combos out of clothes already in my closet. In particular, how to style short-sleeve blouses I bought this summer for the fall and winter. </p> <p>If you want to see only the new item, skip ahead to #8! New long cardigan... </p> <p>1. Wore this out to a play:<br /> <a href="http://s386.photobucket.com/albums/oo309/lookingfabat43/Winter%202009-10/?action=view&#038;current=november020.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s386.photobucket.com/al.....ber020.jpg</a><br /> H&amp;M ponte knit jacket, AT "starry night" blouse, long pearls, UO skinnies, SW booties, ATL clutch. Nothing new here!</p> <p>2. Same outfit as above, but with coat and scarf:<br /> <a href="http://s386.photobucket.com/albums/oo309/lookingfabat43/Winter%202009-10/?action=view&#038;current=november021.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s386.photobucket.com/al.....ber021.jpg</a></p> <p>I also recently bought fun green leather gloves to go with this coat! No pics though... it's a different shade than this clutch, not quite so bright. This is my first foray into gloves other than black or brown. </p> <p>3. Playing with textures outfit:<br /> <a href="http://s386.photobucket.com/albums/oo309/lookingfabat43/Winter%202009-10/?action=view&#038;current=november090.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s386.photobucket.com/al.....ber090.jpg</a><br /> AT blouse, AT cardigan, INC ponte knit pants, suede Franco Sarte boots, necklace from a local boutique, botkier bag. I think that's five different textures in one outfit? (Also, nothing new here in this outfit either...except the goofy pose.)</p> <p>4. Change-up from skinny pants, which I've been living in lately:<br /> <a href="http://s386.photobucket.com/albums/oo309/lookingfabat43/Winter%202009-10/?action=view&#038;current=november091.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s386.photobucket.com/al.....ber091.jpg</a><br /> AT jacket, AT blouse (bought in separate seasons but so thrilled the two coordinate perfectly!), vintage brooch, clutch - I forget?, COH Hutton jeans, Nine West giraffe pumps. </p> <p>5. Very similar outfit to #4, except with gray Inc ponte knits, SW booties, and black Furla bag. I think I like #4 better. What are your thoughts? Also, any other suggestions on how to wear this blouse? I love it, but if I put a black jacket or cardi over it, it seems so dark and needs something. Yet, the neckline detailing is such, it doesn't work that great with a necklace. Suggestions, please!</p> <p>6. I wore something sorta similar to this one before:<br /> <a href="http://s386.photobucket.com/albums/oo309/lookingfabat43/Winter%202009-10/?action=view&#038;current=november003.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s386.photobucket.com/al.....ber003.jpg</a><br /> Ponte knit AT jacket, ATL cotton top (it has embellishment at the neckline - can't see in this pic), scarf from Austria, UO jeans, Star Ling boots. With long gold necklace that is new... unfortunately, I forgot to take off the scarf so you could see it. </p> <p>7. Yes, a DRESS for a change!<br /> <a href="http://s386.photobucket.com/albums/oo309/lookingfabat43/Winter%202009-10/?action=view&#038;current=november016.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s386.photobucket.com/al.....ber016.jpg</a><br /> BR sweater dress (you'll remember from last year), new gold necklace (what do you think?) from Macy's, Star Ling boots. Do these boots work with this dress? I was trying to go for a more casual, day look here. I still feel dressed up in this, but it was quite comfy. </p> <p>8. Saving the best for last.... here's what I wore for Thanksgiving!<br /> <a href="http://s386.photobucket.com/albums/oo309/lookingfabat43/Winter%202009-10/?action=view&#038;current=november050.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s386.photobucket.com/al.....ber050.jpg</a><br /> and<br /> <a href="http://s386.photobucket.com/albums/oo309/lookingfabat43/Winter%202009-10/?action=view&#038;current=november051.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s386.photobucket.com/al.....ber051.jpg</a><br /> AT blouse, AT Outlet cardigan (my new favorite), long pearls, UO jeans, black suede franco sarto boots. </p> <p>I've worn #8 a few times, sometimes with ponte knit pants and SW booties instead of jeans. I have converted to new look cardigans - I found two amazing ones at AT Outlet and have been wearing both to death lately. </p>
