I love them all. :)</p> <p>Since you mentioned the mushroom, to my eye you look a bit 'sharper' in the colours of&nbsp;some of the other&nbsp;outfits, but you still look good in the mushroom w those dark neutrals. So you definitely don't need to purge that colour unless you want to, and it sounds like it makes you happy! (I happily wear a less-than-my-absolute-best colour if I like it enough.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket/page/2#post-1235375 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 04:50:34 +0000 Gigi 1235375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rabbit, you seem to outdo yourself with every WIW! These outfits are incredible. I especially like 2 and 3. The pattern mixing in 3 is first-rate.</p> <p>As for the leggings, I was surprised that I didn't mind the gap above the shoes. It seems to work somehow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket/page/2#post-1235354 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 03:52:47 +0000 JG 1235354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Number 3 is one of my favorite looks on the forum. Love love love it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket/page/2#post-1235300 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 02:23:29 +0000 Aida 1235300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab outfits, I'm especially fond of #3! I like the tuck/semi-tuck for #1, really gives a nice long legline. Great moody shades all around, too. I love your silk scarves, I also enjoy wearing mine tied that way. The skin gap in #4 doesn't bother me, it echoes your skin and light sweater, especially with the sleeves pushed up.</p> <p>(hello cute kitties!)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket/page/2#post-1235289 Mon, 28 Apr 2014 02:03:37 +0000 rabbit 1235289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Kiwichick</b> - that's actually a photo series based on&nbsp;an outdoor art installation,&nbsp;&nbsp;I love Ivan Bilibin's illustrations though. &nbsp;I like going monochrome dark (especially when I used to dye my hair black), but now that my hair is brown and it's spring, I'm enjoying introducing some color too.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Cindy </b>- The pink mohair&nbsp;sweater is actually thrifted The Limited. &nbsp;But I love pale pinks that aren't beigey too.</p> <p><b>Missey </b>- I agree that the mushroom/muted tones aren't usually&nbsp;as good with my coloring as the deep saturated ones. &nbsp;I actually like the pale pink in RL a lot more than the mushroom&nbsp;though as it's a more saturated soft rose&nbsp;than shows in the photos and doesn't have any brown or gray in it. &nbsp;It is still quite pale from farther away&nbsp;though.</p> <p>thanks again all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket/page/2#post-1235064 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 19:50:01 +0000 Missey 1235064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 2 and 3 is a fave!&nbsp; The color of the eggplant dress is lovely on you...the dark jewel tones and navy really suit your complexion and make you shine!&nbsp; </p> <p>As for the mushroom tones in one and the pink sweater, I don't feel those tones do you justice and have a dulling/neutralizing effect on your coloring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket/page/2#post-1235059 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 19:42:13 +0000 Cindy S 1235059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep, My fave is the mod yet elegant pattern mix in 3 and the contrast belt really pops it. And you do look lovely in the mushroom, I like the half tuck look best. And the purple/black....well actually I really like all of these, the solid column of blue w floaty skirt is amazing too! Is the pink sweater Zara? I've been on the hunt for a chunky one that's not too pale, you nailed it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket/page/2#post-1235002 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 18:31:48 +0000 catgirl 1235002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>2, 3 and 7 are my favorites - I've the combinations of pretty and tough in this series! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket/page/2#post-1234994 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 18:25:09 +0000 Kiwichik 1234994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All great outfits but I prefer those where you gave introduced more colour - 3/4/6. I agree that in 6 buttoning would be a good tweak and the jacket sleeves unrolled. Love the cat bag .</p> <p>PS - are those Ivan Bilbin prints on the wall? - love his illustrations. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234950 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 17:36:44 +0000 neonginger 1234950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, and that cat bag!!!!!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234949 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 17:35:44 +0000 neonginger 1234949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW....You look amazing in all of the outfits, but I have to agree with everyone that 2 &amp; 3 are simply&nbsp;OUTSTANDING!!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234948 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 17:35:41 +0000 rabbit 1234948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone for the feedback!</p> <p><b>Neel </b>- good point about bare ankles and structure.</p> <p><b>Greyscale</b> - &nbsp; I'm normally a medium women's - size 10, and I usually try men's small first if I can find it. &nbsp;This is 15 1/2, 32-33 in men's and slim fit, &nbsp;It's a little tight right at the hips if I have it out and button the bottom button over pants, so I don't button that one (I wonder if I should take off the extra buttons that show there, hmm...). &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Suz</b> - I really like how those patterns work together too and it reminded me of different sections of the same painting - like Klimt. &nbsp;I think the texture being the same helped too. &nbsp;Also, I agree, Isn't purple funny that way?&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Diana</b> - #2 really does remind me of one of your outfits, I've been studying the great way you use toppers. :)</p> <p><b>leopardluxe</b>- It's this bag:&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Japan-MUCHACHA-ACHACHUMU-AHCAHCUM-2012-Autumn-Winter-Book-Cat-Tote-Mini-Bag-NEW-/171308927236?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&amp;hash=item27e2cec904">http://www.ebay.com/itm/Japan-.....-Mini-Bag-</a><br />But I found it at Goodwill under a pile of kids backpacks. &nbsp; The Japanese company also has other cat face bags (and eep! &nbsp;A black and white rabbit head tote bag... I may need to stalk that). &nbsp; I love how some of the other listings are for 'Embarrassing Cat face&nbsp;bag', lol truth in advertising. </p> <p><b>aubergine </b>- I think that mushroom color does work in this outfit, which is making me reconsider. &nbsp;By itself it's more muted than I usually go, but for some reason with darker neutrals it brings out the pinks in my face well. &nbsp;Color, such a mystery sometimes ;).</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234921 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 17:06:42 +0000 kellygirl 1234921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't pick a fave. You have such a unique style--feminine and urban/modern. I don't know how to describe it but you pair pieces in interesting ways. SO cool.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234900 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 16:49:37 +0000 kkards 1234900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i like them all, but&nbsp;i almost couldn't get past #2, it was so fab. but I'm glad i did. because i liked #3 as much. you look great in both the soft pink and the bright blue/purple.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234890 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 16:42:45 +0000 Anonymous 1234890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them all too! After looking at the pics, I was surprised to go re-read and see that you were thinking of getting rid of the mushroom, because I'd been thinking that it looked really good on you with the black. Kind of earthy and dramatic at the same time. And the kitty bag is great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234848 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 15:47:04 +0000 Marmee 1234848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rabbit, you are amazing! &nbsp;I like them all, but especially like #2 and 3. &nbsp;And 5. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234846 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 15:41:01 +0000 Angie 1234846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All GREAT looks, Rabbit. Your cat bag cracks me up. How fably quirky. Nice to see the kitties too.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm going with #3 as my killer best.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234654 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 11:29:34 +0000 leopardluxe 1234654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really love the looks in #2 and #3 (and damn, do I really want your bag in #4 and #5. That is SO cool! Wherever did you get it?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234638 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 10:27:10 +0000 fuzzylogic 1234638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rabbit, you are brilliant at creating these outfits!<br /> My faves are # 3 (pattern mixing? Yes, please!) &amp; #5 (love the colour palette!).<br /> Thank you so much for sharing these! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234482 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 03:37:30 +0000 Diana 1234482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore #2, I want to steal the whole outfit from you and wear it exactly as is. &nbsp;Love the pattern mixing in #3 as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234477 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 03:36:31 +0000 Jaime 1234477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tough to pick favorites but I love #3,5 and 6! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234473 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 03:34:29 +0000 Suz 1234473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore 2 and 3. The pattern mix in 3 is positively inspired. I can't explain why it makes me so happy, but it really sings to me. Could it be "just complex enough"? Or is it simply that the scale of one pattern does something amazing to the other. It makes me think of Klimt, although the colours are so different.&nbsp;</p> <p>#2 is just fab with the mix of textures. You look terrific in the jacket, and I am glad you got it.&nbsp;</p> <p>I am partial to mushroom/ taupe (and to cats) so of course I am going to love #1! But considering the pants are old and maybe past their prime, I still think it's a great look for you.&nbsp;</p> <p>Re the purple shirt -- for some reason purple is one of those colours that is super difficult to reproduce well in photos. I've noticed this time and again -- people are always having to explain their purples because they never seem to show up as they really look.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234471 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 03:32:05 +0000 Greyscale 1234471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are great outfits! I really like the navy and black in #2.&nbsp;</p> <p>What size is the men's shirt relative to your usual women's&nbsp;size? It looks like it fits really well for an oversized look.&nbsp;I like the idea of wearing men's button downs and some people make them look so stylish but I worry that I'd get the size wrong. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234468 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 03:27:50 +0000 Neel 1234468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow!! Stellar outfits!! I really love 1 too! And that kitty handbag is tdf! I like the proportions in all your outfits.</p> <p>The gap between the leggings and boots adds more structure IMO. So its a yay from me. Great work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/several-wiw-weather-transition-new-leather-jacket#post-1234466 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 03:24:41 +0000 jackiec 1234466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh I really like them all! You have a fab leather jacket! My fav is #2 followed by #6 but they are all really nice.
