In the past I’ve worn brown pants with cream and felt very bland. The texture in the pants &amp; elsewhere and “my colors” next to my face (and maybe the puff) give this outfit an entirely different feeling for me. </p> <p>Thanks <b>Meredith</b>!</p> <p><b>SarahD8</b>, thanks. It took more thought than I’d expected to choose my puff. </p> <p>Initially, I opened up the purse strap and slid the puff strap over it, so it dangled as if you were dangling the wrist strap from a finger, as in the picture. </p> <p>What I’ve done about the it, for now anyway: The puff’s short strap has a simple clasp, so I used it to attach the puff to the purse. That means the wrist strap hangs there, still around the purse strap, which is better but still not ideal. (The mixed metals don’t bother me; it’s a puff purse, not high art). Taking the clasp off the wristlet strap means damaging something, which I don’t want to do. I need to get something to perform the job the clasp is doing, and remove the the strap from the scene entirely. </p> <p>One of these days I’ll see the right caribiner or keychain ring and grab it, but there is too much going on right now for that to be a priority. </p> <p>Thanks for commenting on this, <b>Aida</b>. I appreciate your willingness to give critique and advice.<br /> Am I wearing light color on my feet? By golly, I am. Would you look at that! I bet that’s the reason I thought these were so amazing when I got them last spring. In this outfit, I was worried about heels + skinnies, but once I was dressed, it was fine. I think the high contrast makes my legs look shorter, but the heels cancel that out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/still-lovin%e2%80%99-it#post-1867332 Tue, 12 Dec 2017 01:37:07 +0000 SarahD8 1867332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, love the mix of textures in this outfit!<br />And great that you still have some of that depth even after having to lose a layer.<br />A+ on the boots.<br />I do agree that the wristlet strap should be shorter but I LOVE this touch of whimsy in your outfit! And the bright cobalt blue is so great with both the pale pink and the brown. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/still-lovin%e2%80%99-it#post-1867328 Tue, 12 Dec 2017 01:31:54 +0000 Meredith 1867328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great!

How'd you feel about the light footwear? :)</p> <p>(Agree about the wristlet strap. Maybe a short, chunky chain?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/still-lovin%e2%80%99-it#post-1867263 Mon, 11 Dec 2017 22:25:10 +0000 karen13 1867263@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Home run!

Another great outfit, and one that seems to fit your personality. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/still-lovin%e2%80%99-it#post-1867214 Mon, 11 Dec 2017 20:22:39 +0000 The Cat 1867214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really nice colour combo for you!

No pattern, but definitely lots of texture and some colour.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/still-lovin%e2%80%99-it#post-1867061 Mon, 11 Dec 2017 13:55:10 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1867061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When we left the house, temps were still at the overnight low—42 degrees. I don’t often break out the T-necks around here, but felt it was justified. I may regret that choice later today, when it’s 20 degrees warmer. </p> <p>I need a shorter strap for my puff purselet.</p> <p>ETA: aw, man, I wish I’d read Angie’s “color, pattern, texture and shine” post first (or that I could add the link in now or delete this and do a new post).</p> <p>Analyzing today’s outfit, I think I’ve hit all four, but that depends on how you count a couple slippery items.<br /> Color: cranberry T-neck &amp; sleeves peeking out from cream sweater, blue puff<br /> Pattern: maybe<br /> Texture: puff, suede ankle boots, faux fur on the hood<br /> Shine: purse hardware</p> <p>Is the body of the vest a slick texture or subtle shine? Is it pink enough to count as color?<br /> Damask jeggings and fisherman’s sweater: are these texture or pattern?</p> <p>ETAEvenMore<br /> Now that it’s warmed up some, I’ve lost the texture and color of the vest, but I’m happy with the remains, as more of the texture &amp; color of sweater and T-neck are visible. Son still hasn’t learned how to take a head to toe photo, but at least you get the shoe color, if not the shape. </p>
