I would never even imagine combining these items and it is brilliant. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-790285 Fri, 07 Dec 2012 01:54:30 +0000 Jaime 790285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like that plaid dress with the sweater over it - great boy/girl look. I know what you mean about the subtle differences in camera angle that are only detectable to yourself. This angle certainly works - you look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-790279 Fri, 07 Dec 2012 01:47:04 +0000 Beth Ann 790279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is one of my favorites "Rae" looks. Love the layering and the boots! I get the hair frustrations -- mine keeps doing this "Mary Tyler Moore" thing, and in dark hair it can be difficult to create dimension and texture. That said, I love the shiny, swingy look you've been sporting! Wear this one again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-790155 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 23:56:18 +0000 Suz 790155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this, Rae!! Oh, to have your LOOOONG calves and to be able to wear socks peeking from the tops of boots! </p> <p>I agree with you that a pullover feels more masculine. So I am buying "tomboy." Glad you got to wear those fantastic boots today. </p> <p>As for your hair, yup, my daughter is Asian and she likes her bangs to be piecey and we have tried a lot of product to do it. The ones to make your hair go punk usually do it best, but it lasts for part of a day only. </p> <p>I personally love the sleeker look on you, too, and to me it does not read in the least conservative. If you feel it does, then that is just a question as Una says of over time getting the right cut. We have found that razoring and other sort of random snipping techniques really help. Incidentally, I need this too because although my hair has some natural wave and texture due to the grey coming in, it is also fine and HUGELY thick, so I absolutely have to have chunks cut out in a sort of random way to get any movement or "edge" to it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-790146 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 23:39:49 +0000 cciele 790146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yup, I'm feeling the tomboy vibe too and loving it -- have fun with this persona! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-790139 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 23:34:19 +0000 Atlantia 790139@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very much loving the socks peeping out of the tops of the boots. Completely sweet and naughty in the best possible way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-790129 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 23:25:11 +0000 rae 790129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Inge, that means so much to me! It took a long time to feel "me" in most things I wear, and I am happy that others appreciate the look as well. </p> <p>Natalie, I commented on your thread - so fun! Your UWP side is just as awesome as your DB side. </p> <p>I love these boots, too. Must keep wearing them whenever I can take the heel! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-790061 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 21:36:42 +0000 MsMaven 790061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I too love your hair--not sure I've said so either.</p> <p>This is a great fun look for a December day. (I'm not a fan of wintery months.) It looks good outside and looks comfortable for being indoors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-790058 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 21:24:46 +0000 goldenpig 790058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh Rae, I love this look head to toe. Your hair does look a little RATE-ier today--nice! And I love the plaid and boots. I love your steampunk schoolgirl look so much. In fact I am also wearing a plaid skirt and sweater and boots today too! An unintentional twin day! I'll have to post my pics for you!</p> <p>Love the mustard colored wall background. Your pics look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-790054 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 21:02:17 +0000 Inge 790054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't had a chance to comment on your previous threads, Rae, but I just wanted to chime in and say that I absolutely love your new do: this "new", more texturized version, but also the sleeker look that doesn't read like "helmet hair" to me at all.<br /> As far as your outfit is concerned: perfect from head to toe. Also: I honestly have never seen you wear anything blah, you have a fantastic sense of style and you are brilliant at combining pieces and colours in a way that makes everything feel totally Rae-esque. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-790053 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 21:01:31 +0000 Diana 790053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, I was thinking I want another flannel shirt but maybe what I really need is a shirt dress! Love it, esp with the boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-789987 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 19:13:57 +0000 catgirl 789987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally tomboy girly tuff.

And the pullover works brilliantly over the dress. Fab look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-789976 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 19:02:59 +0000 Kristin L 789976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit Rae! Your boots are awesome. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-789967 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 18:44:40 +0000 Anonymous 789967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks great, rae! I love those boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-789966 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 18:43:48 +0000 Tina.b 789966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the sweater over the dress, gives a really modern feel. Very cool boots too. Great outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shadow-persona-goes-to-the-grocery#post-789962 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 18:40:34 +0000 rae 789962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I only took a short trip out this morning, but I had Natalie's <a>Shadow Persona thread </a>on the mind and wanted to revisit my SGT (Steampunk Girly Tomboy) look. </p> <p>Today we have my statement steampunk boots, which I'd not worn since quitting my old job, paired with sort of a girlie preppy/schoolboy look. It could be argued that it's more of a schoolGIRL look, but I'm still feeling the tomboy vibe because of the flannel fabrication of the dress and use of a pullover instead of cardigan... I'm not sure why, but pullovers always feel more masculine to me. </p> <p>This is Day 2 of my pincurled hair - I've not washed or brushed it since the curling. It's really almost back to stick straight, but there's a tiny bit more texture in there that I'm trying to milk for another day. </p> <p>I also tried a little something different with my photos today. Instead of placing my camera on the roof of my car, I balanced it on the window wiper. I've got to dial in the focus better somehow, but I do like this angle better. You guys might think it looks the same, but IDK, maybe it just looks more like what I see in the mirror. </p> <p>Target flannel plaid dress - flea market<br /> H&amp;M cabled pullover - gift from Dad<br /> Cabled knee socks - gift from Mom<br /> Timberland "Marge Wood" boots - Ebay<br /> Cat pendant - Madewell<br /> Ted Baker messenger - flea market </p>
