I would go with rain boots in solid bright with, like Inge suggests. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-outerwear-matchy-or-complementary#post-51355 Sat, 21 Feb 2009 21:01:06 +0000 Inge 51355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Kristen. The navy trench is lovely! If you're going with that one, you could also try yellow, green or purple wellies... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-outerwear-matchy-or-complementary#post-51354 Sat, 21 Feb 2009 20:56:47 +0000 Kristen 51354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kendra, I think you are just saying that so we won't end up with the same trench! ;-D Heeheehee.</p> <p>Thanks for the encouragement, both of you. I think it's gonna be the navy trench and wellies, too. I already ordered adorable red polka-bot wellies from Target, but now that I realize they go with nothing I have. So as soon as they arrive, they'll be going back! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-outerwear-matchy-or-complementary#post-51316 Sat, 21 Feb 2009 16:59:12 +0000 Louise 51316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the navy wellies would look great with the navy and white trench. I think that the patterned wellies are probably too patterned to go with the trench though would look good with a plainer coat.</p> <p>I've got a patterned blue raincoat which i got navy sparkly wellies to go with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-outerwear-matchy-or-complementary#post-51301 Sat, 21 Feb 2009 14:48:03 +0000 Lee Hovey 51301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think navy wellies with a cream purse would be beautiful with either coat, but especially the salmon one you already have!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-outerwear-matchy-or-complementary#post-51298 Sat, 21 Feb 2009 14:25:57 +0000 Kristen 51298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am going to need to purchase a pair of rainboots and a trench this spring. I had a couple of older boxy trenches that are getting discarded this year (also in horrible light blue and pink colors, all wrong for me now), and last year I picked up a great bright poppy-colored trench from Talbots -- it was somewhere between orange and red, and I LOVED it. I suspect it will be much too large this spring, since all my winter coats are already too big. </p> <p>Ooooh, correction! I just tried it on; the poppy trench is only an XL and it fits great! Whoo, that changes my plan.</p> <p>Originally, I was thinking I wanted to pick up this blue patterned Target trench that LeeHovey and I were discussing on another thread.</p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/ref=huc_ic_2_txt/175-0942357-8659728?ie=UTF8&#038;ASIN=B001GKGUIE&#038;nodeID=&#038;merchantID=A1VC38T7YXB528" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/gp/detai.....38T7YXB528</a></p> <p>I am CRAZY about the pattern, and have been on a big navy/blue kick this year. I am still strongly considering it as a second coat. </p> <p>If it had only been that trench, I was thinking about these boots in salsa orange.</p> <p><a href="http://www.landsend.com/pp/WellieBoots-79279_194452_-1.html?CM_MERCH=PGGT_2_from_0000041656_to_0000044591" rel="nofollow">http://www.landsend.com/pp/Wel.....0000044591</a></p> <p>But now that it will be the poppy trench and maybe the blue, perhaps a navy rainboot will be more appropriate.</p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/Zetta-Tall-Rain-Boots-Navy/dp/B001DCO8RA/qid=1235225613/ref=br_1_4/175-0942357-8659728?ie=UTF8&#038;node=13913321&#038;frombrowse=1&#038;rh=tgt_2%3ABlue&#038;page=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/Zetta-Ta.....038;page=1</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.landsend.com/pp/WellieBoots-79279_194452_-1.html?CM_MERCH=PGGT_2_from_0000041656_to_0000044591" rel="nofollow">http://www.landsend.com/pp/Wel.....0000044591</a></p> <p>I am intrigued by this pattern, but the reviews are not great and I think the pattern and colors would not work with either trench.</p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/DAccord-Rain-Boots-Navy/dp/B000XS7NYU/qid=1235225613/ref=br_1_8/175-0942357-8659728?ie=UTF8&#038;node=13913321&#038;frombrowse=1&#038;rh=tgt_2%3ABlue&#038;page=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/DAccord-.....038;page=1</a></p> <p>Lastly, I'll be looking at cream purses and totes this year. I'm going to check out the Limited one we discussed elsewhere:</p> <p><a href="http://www.thelimited.com/detail/index/item_desc/covert-kisslock-bag/item/1371447/subcategory/handbags/category/accessories-gifts/clearance/clearance" rel="nofollow">http://www.thelimited.com/deta...../clearance</a></p> <p>Target has a great tote very similar to the patent ones Gap had this fall that I missed out on getting:</p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/ref=huc_svd_9_txt/175-0942357-8659728?ie=UTF8&#038;ASIN=B001K6366S&#038;nodeID=&#038;merchantID=A1VC38T7YXB528" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/gp/detai.....38T7YXB528</a></p> <p>I saw it in the store and the leather looked and felt pretty good!</p> <p>I've also got the Kate Spade cream purse on my wishlist. I think I might get it as my reward for losing 50 pounds. (27 and counting now!)</p> <p><a href="http://www.katespade.com/sm-westbury-small-flat-serena--pi-3403515.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.katespade.com/sm-we.....03515.html</a></p> <p>So, what do you guys think? Is everything too matchy, or will it be nicely complementary? Any other suggestions for rainboot colors? </p>
