All outfits are gorgeous. The black and the bold colors make me happy. Oooh, your red accent pieces.....spectacular. My hands down favorite is your salmon and cream with your new vintage bag. Beyond beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2025067 Mon, 06 May 2019 20:00:53 +0000 Katerina 2025067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Rachylou and Fifthandfinest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2025054 Mon, 06 May 2019 19:05:58 +0000 fifthandfinest 2025054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all of the jackets, especially the coral and floral ones.

I love the pineapple jacket, it is so fun. Totally TDF. So perfect for your whimsical dressy style when you are in the right mood. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2025012 Mon, 06 May 2019 15:54:56 +0000 Katerina 2025012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, thank you so much! You made my day. I am so glad you like 3 and 6 especially because both are a bit outside my comfort zone. 3 because of the light and soft palette and 6 - well - spring on steroids Waving back at my fellow bag lady - not a shoe lady! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024979 Mon, 06 May 2019 13:29:12 +0000 Bijou 2024979@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Katerina, it is such a treat to see you post your outfits. Of course they are all wonderful, but my favourites are the ones that say spring - so number 3 &amp; 5. I have a rather challenging jacket too that is lots of fun, but just so full on I need to be in the mood to wear it. My pineapple jacket works best for me with light blue denim jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024978 Mon, 06 May 2019 13:29:00 +0000 Angie 2024978@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Katerina,</b> I've missed your KILLER stunning style. I LOVE IT ALL. My faves are #3 and #6. KILLER to the Power of KILLER.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm also high fiving you for NOT being a shoe gal. (I read that in your accessories thread, and felt camaraderie!) Shoes are not unimportant, but you let the rest of the outfit do the talking. That's my outfit strategy too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024946 Mon, 06 May 2019 09:25:11 +0000 Katerina 2024946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa p, thank you! :-)</p> <p>Thank you Suntiger, a good idea!</p> <p>Runcarla, thank you. I love the colours in your flowers - in outfits as well!</p> <p>Shevia, thank you very much! Yellow trousers is a HEWI, have not found a great pair yet. </p> <p>Sal, thank you very much. I have not thought of jeans - will definitely try that. I have a few blue pairs actually, maybe one of the colours will work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024901 Mon, 06 May 2019 01:49:48 +0000 Sal 2024901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The bags are fantastic and I love outfit 3 as well.&nbsp; And outfit 7!!&nbsp; Both Katerina at your best!!</p> <p>I prefer the&nbsp; mint floral jacket with the matching scarf than with the red.&nbsp; I do like it but agree it is a challenge to style.&nbsp; I could see it with the cream underneath as well, and honestly I would wear it with jeans as well (I don't think you wear a lot of jeans though).&nbsp; Or camel trousers?&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024893 Mon, 06 May 2019 01:26:07 +0000 Jaime 2024893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I do love thrifted bags ! Your new find is great. My favorite outfit is the salmon jacket with new bag. I love the mint green jacket with matching scarf but want lighter bottoms (perhaps I am in a light clothes phase?). I feel like you have yellow trousers, am I just imaging things? The purple jacket is fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024886 Mon, 06 May 2019 01:12:16 +0000 Carla 2024886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1-2 and #7 really speak to me. I have a 'thing' for purples, plums, burgundy and Browns (right after blue and white stripes) but it doesn't manifest in clothes - rather plants in my garden and fabrics in my quilting stash. The gold bag is TDF and would be the making of any outfit in which you choose to use it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024855 Sun, 05 May 2019 22:58:13 +0000 Anonymous 2024855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, purple works with so much! I like 1-2 and 3-4 the most, though think I'd like the gold bag more with 3-4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024838 Sun, 05 May 2019 22:33:13 +0000 Anonymous 2024838@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favourite is the salmon jacket outfit - and that bag is great. Reminds me of an old Ferragamo design. &nbsp;The dark purple outfit is wonderful, but I find the ultra-shininess of the bag a little distracting. &nbsp;I prefer your floral jacket as styled in the first photo. Very Palm Springs country club &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024837 Sun, 05 May 2019 22:26:08 +0000 Katerina 2024837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, thank you very much and thanks for the idea. Cream might work, but how to desweeten it a bit? Bag and shoes?</p> <p>The Cat, thank you very much. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024834 Sun, 05 May 2019 22:20:48 +0000 Katerina 2024834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha, ha, Cardiff girl! Thank you. Spring on steroids! That’s why I like this jacket too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024826 Sun, 05 May 2019 21:55:25 +0000 The Cat 2024826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun bags. And elegant outfits, as usual. My favourite outfit here is #3--so lovely springy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024823 Sun, 05 May 2019 21:50:49 +0000 Anonymous 2024823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your stylings especially the mint floral jacket with a column of black for early spring. Have you tried the mint jacket with your column of cream? It that may look too candy sweet sometimes. You have some fabulous vintage finds to have fun with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024820 Sun, 05 May 2019 21:46:10 +0000 Cardiff girl 2024820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow,l love that floral jacket.Its like spring on steroids,fabulous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024812 Sun, 05 May 2019 21:30:32 +0000 Katerina 2024812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Adriana, thank you very much for looking and commenting. I am glad you like the pink jacket outfit. The patterned jacket is quite new and I have not managed to work it into my wardrobe yet. I like the colours and the bold pattern, but it will take some work to find good combinations. I will try with white trousers, thank you for the idea,</p> <p>Kate, thank you very much for taking time to analyze and for the kind comments. I also like lilac a lot. Your new crossbody sounds lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024789 Sun, 05 May 2019 20:45:11 +0000 Kate 2024789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was apparently so bowled over by your light-colored outfit, I completely forgot to comment on the rest!</p> <p>I think your shopping outfit is beautiful—love the scarf and the burgundy and lilac shoes and bag. I would wear that in a heartbeat.</p> <p>The large-patterned floral topper I prefer with the light blue scarf. That shade of blue is gorgeous on you, and I love the structured vintage bag you paired with the outfit.</p> <p>You always look great in dark saturated colors like the purple topper in the first look, and the scarf is lovely with it. A Katerina classic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024782 Sun, 05 May 2019 20:31:26 +0000 Kate 2024782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore the second outfit on you. You look so beautiful in those light colors. You scored a win with the brown patent purse. it’s lovely. I have a similar purse, and love wearing it. Your lilac suede handbag is also a beauty. Just yesterday, I purchased a lilac crossbody bag. I am buying a fair number of lilac items this spring to refresh my wardrobe and really enjoying them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024781 Sun, 05 May 2019 20:30:20 +0000 Adriana 2024781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely outfits. I like the first with the bag to lighten it up. The pink jacket outfit is my favorit, good job working the outfit around the bag. Bookending with your hair. The flowery jacket I like best with the less contrasty scarf. You could try it with white or off white. I find these patterns/colors also difficult. All looks very elegant. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024775 Sun, 05 May 2019 20:18:42 +0000 Katerina 2024775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you very much for looking, MsMaven, and for the feedback.</p> <p>I also love purple. I combine the purple pieces with many different colours. The other day, I wore this jacket with light grey trousers and blouse and a patterned grey/red/purple/white scarf, I also like red with the purple, orange or turquoise. And of course white and cream. Yellow, as well. I wear bold colour combinations and to my taste, purple works with many, many other colours. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024772 Sun, 05 May 2019 20:05:13 +0000 MsMaven 2024772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love purple and I love the outfit. What other colors do you combine the purple lackey with?</p> <p>I also love that shade of salmon and I like how you have combined it here.</p> <p>Not so in love with the last combination. That print seems like it would be difficult to combine. With the red scarf it caught my eye, but the more I look at it compared to the others the less sure I am.</p> <p>And I love all the bags. Great finds. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-outfits-and-recent-vintage-finds#post-2024750 Sun, 05 May 2019 18:28:19 +0000 Katerina 2024750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dear Fabbers,<br /> Some outfits I have worn this week and some test outfits with recent thrifted vintage bags. </p> <p>No 1 - 2 is an outfit I wore this week to work. A purple jacket on a column of black, colourful cotton scarf and a gold handbag. Here, no thrifted finds. I was very comfortable in this outfit, I like the stronger darker colours and contrasts.</p> <p>No 3 - 4 is a test. New vintage handbag - brown patent with gold hardware. I tried to make an outfit around this bag. Salmon coloured jacket, cream blouse (also thrifted), cream trousers, blush suede Chelsea boots with polka dots and a very old Kenzo scarf in silk/cotton blend. </p> <p>No 5 is another test. A patterned mint green jacket over a column of black. Mint green solid scarf. For fun, I added a large brown bag - a recent vintage find.</p> <p>No 6 - the same jacket as in no 5, but with a red scarf. A red patent weekend bag - also thrifted. I think it is interesting how the red accents change the outfit so much.... However, not sure about any of the two outfits, this jacket is challenging to style.</p> <p>No 7 Burgundy utility jacket with a large cotton scarf, black trousers and burgundy loafers. Lilac suede handbag. I wore this outfit for shopping yesterday.</p> <p>What do you guys think about the outfits? Do you like my thrifted bags? Any feedback, reflections and styling ideas are much appreciated. </p>
