The silver shoes do look cohesive with the rest of the outfit here.</p> <p>Fantastic variety in this bunch of outfits I have to say. I have been only in skinnies and tops in the past two weeks o_O. Time to take on the challenge may be? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silhouette-challenge#post-1407965 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 03:28:27 +0000 Jaime 1407965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the dress without the jacket (showing disregard for your warmth I know), the turtleneck and the last blouse best. What boxes? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silhouette-challenge#post-1407958 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 03:20:26 +0000 Suz 1407958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You really managed to get the variety in this week for sure. (And don't worry a bit about those boxes. It just show a deliberative thought process.)&nbsp;</p> <p>My favourite is the last one -- it's very calm, and that snakeskin print is extremely flattering with your colouring. The close up shows how pretty you are. I actually like the silver shoes here as a fun statement item, but I know sometimes things look different IRL.&nbsp;</p> <p>Fun sneakers in #6. I would probably pass on the sweater unless you like it for lounging.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silhouette-challenge#post-1407893 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 02:02:08 +0000 carter 1407893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha! We moved in in June 2007 and still have boxes in the closet of one of the guest rooms! Love the silhouette change-ups. 4 thru 8 are my favorites. I bet 7/8 looked great with the nude pointy flats...a bit more flow, maybe? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silhouette-challenge#post-1407881 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 01:41:49 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1407881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I gave Una's 5 silhouette work week challenge a go last week, along with a new photo location. (How embarrassing is it that we moved in June and we still have boxes in our spare room?)</p> <p>1/2: Monday - knit dress with scarf and optional jacket. I felt better in this than I think it translated onto film (well, pixels). This is a bit of a waist-surrendering sweater dress, which I normally wear with tights and boots - maybe that works better proportion-wise? </p> <p>3: Tuesday - Skinnies, boots and a sweater. It was rainy and stormy so the rain boots were a must, which lead to the skinnies. This is actually version 2 of the outfit; I started with a different sweater which turned out to be too short to wear with these jeans, and I was constantly yanking down the sweater hem and pulling up my pants. Not a good vibe. Second sweater was functionally long enough but I still don't think these proportions look good. </p> <p>4/5: Wednesday: Bootcuts and a sweater with a big scarf worn as a shawl. Still rainy. I don't think turtlenecks are that flattering on me, but sometimes you're cold, ya know? (I did put shoes on before leaving the house, I promise.)</p> <p>6: Thursday: bootcuts, knit tee and cardigan. My favorite silhouette ever! Probably the silhouette I've worn most over my adult lifetime, too. Usually I buy only v-neck cardigans; this was a hand-me-down from my mom. I'm not sure I'm going to keep it as candy pink and bling are not really my style.</p> <p>7/8: Friday: straight-leg jeans, button-front shirt and longer cardigan. This was an attempt to recreate this look from Capital Hill Style: <a href="http://www.caphillstyle.com/capitol/2014/11/18/pinterest-stylist-soft-pretty-neutrals.html" rel="nofollow">Soft, Pretty Neutrals</a>. I'm not sure I completely pulled it off - my shirt had more dark colors in it than the inspiration, and IRL the silver shoes looked odd with the warm-toned cream of the cardigan. I actually only wore this outfit for a few hours on Friday, since I was mostly in my grungies cleaning the house, so I pulled it out again and wore it today, with my nude pointy-toed flats, which I think looked more cohesive. </p> <p>As always, feedback including constructive criticism is welcome. </p> <p> </p>
