I look forward to seeing how you evoke these themes in coming months. I like your move to some shorter jackets, and the necklaces to match. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321194 Thu, 04 May 2023 02:18:10 +0000 Brooklyn 2321194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oops, cross post! Thanks Jaime. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321193 Thu, 04 May 2023 02:17:15 +0000 Brooklyn 2321193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya, those textures are gorgeous. We are definitely on the same wavelength. I’ve been looking at the Zara versions too. And I thrifted one in a dark metallic green. I have found with sheer mesh and open knit items that I can manipulate the undertone by wearing a good colour for me underneath. That’s been a revelation for me.</p> <p>Sal, thanks! I love accessories. Don’t make the clothes do all the work! It’s one of my fashion mottos </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321191 Thu, 04 May 2023 02:13:46 +0000 Jaime 2321191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I am blown away just at the description! And your outfits, old or new, are always a treat. I particularly like how you illustrated your idea of edgy warm metallics with the last few. Looking forward to where you will take this! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321187 Thu, 04 May 2023 02:01:02 +0000 Tanya 2321187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>He he Brooklyn, the tag team sounds like a lot of fun!</p> <p>Yes, something like the typical Paco Rabane top would be a good example for the "heavy metal" piece.&nbsp; And I am very curious to see how you do a deconstructed midi.&nbsp; &nbsp;I have attached some inspo pieces below, from old fashion shows, first six for the "heavy metal" (textures are more important that shapes, I do not wear minis), the rest for deconstructed skirts with a bit of lace, most of them Sacai.&nbsp; &nbsp; I am hoping to find more wearable versions at regular/non-designer price points.</p> <p>Your top is gorgeous, and a black/dark version would be perfect for me.&nbsp; I have actually gotten two similar inexpensive ones (in the Finds below), for my summer theme, which I will describe within the next couple of weeks.&nbsp; &nbsp;They will probably be wearable for the Dark Romance theme, too, but ideally would like something heavier, as in my examples. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321186 Thu, 04 May 2023 01:20:19 +0000 Sal 2321186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a treat and I can see the themes coming through.&nbsp; And absolutely make them your own with ombre and cargo pants and wide pants.&nbsp; It is great to see some of your old fave's here - combined with a sprinkle of new - that's what makes fashion unique and personal.</p> <p>I think you nail the accessories - it's something I have got a bit rusty on over the last couple of years and I could add a bit more interest this way.&nbsp; Food for thought! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321185 Thu, 04 May 2023 01:04:46 +0000 Brooklyn 2321185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I should have said I’m pretty set for winter in terms of my wardrobe. This is about using what I have.</p> <p>I have one thing on my list: a maxi coat. I haven’t bought a wool coat in about 8 years. I don’t have much need for them. But the maxi coat trend has me keen.</p> <p>I would also like tall or mid calf LUG sole burgundy lace up boots. But don’t expect to find them soon.</p> <p>And I am open to any asymmetrical skirt, dark floral or ombre item that just screams Brooklyn </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321184 Thu, 04 May 2023 00:55:39 +0000 Brooklyn 2321184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bijou, you are so right about our mild winters (sorry CG). I think it is 16 in London for the coronation. 3 weeks from Summer. And it’s 23 here today. 3 weeks from Winter. The only thing I don’t like about winter is the short days. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321183 Thu, 04 May 2023 00:49:11 +0000 Brooklyn 2321183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nikki, love the short necklace. I am wearing them shorter these days because tops are shorter. I’ve thrifted a couple of bib style necklaces and got my DH to shorten them to chokers for me. I will try to work them in. Also got a couple of waistcoats to wear them with </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321182 Thu, 04 May 2023 00:45:47 +0000 Brooklyn 2321182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya, we can play tag team on dark romance </p> <p>With the metal piece of clothing, do you mean something like a Paco Rabanne disc top? I’d love something like that too!! I also got a rhinestone embellished top from Free People which has a stud vibe (but is more on the pretty side) . It’s gorgeous and comes in silver too if you are interested.</p> <p>With the deconstructed midi skirt, stay tuned, I’ve got a layering idea that may be of interest. Gotta see for myself whether it works first. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321181 Thu, 04 May 2023 00:44:17 +0000 Brooklyn 2321181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone for the encouragement!

I look forward to bronze and brass, what I think of as more casual gold or warm metallic looks as they mix some black or grey with the gold, but still look good with metallic gold. My favorites of your posted outfits are #8 and #9. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321082 Wed, 03 May 2023 15:33:42 +0000 Bonnie 2321082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The outfits are beautiful and your style themes are perfect for winter.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321078 Wed, 03 May 2023 14:37:14 +0000 Star (Lise) 2321078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous Brooklyn!&nbsp; You and Tanya are an inspiration.&nbsp; Lots of love for the last outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321077 Wed, 03 May 2023 14:27:05 +0000 Carla 2321077@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous! &nbsp;Such an interesting palette - especially the olive tinged old gold. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321076 Wed, 03 May 2023 13:58:08 +0000 Angie 2321076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE how you and<b> Tanya </b>have fun with your seasonal themes, <b>Brooklyn.</b> It adds to your dressing and shopping enjoyment - and keeps you focussed! - how can that not be a winning process ;)</p> <p>"The challenge will be to blend these aspects into a dark romantic look.

Great inspiration for my cold weather plannings. I saved this pic for an accessory idea. I like how the necklaces are worn like a choker. Might work for Dark Bohemian and Gilded Edge too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321065 Wed, 03 May 2023 13:01:01 +0000 Bijou 2321065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a treat - you look stunning and your themes are perfect for your style. Our Australian winter dressing is fun because it allows for layering without the need for insulation from very cold temperatures. It is wonderful to see your gorgeous older pieces such as the Versace jacket being mixed with your new additions. </p> <p>I'm not sure how you did it - but you have achieved a Dark and Romantic look even in cargo pants in #10. Your style just gets better and better.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321063 Wed, 03 May 2023 12:44:50 +0000 Tanya 2321063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, wardrobe themes - so much fun! I have been originally inspired by you, so we may be going in circles…<br /> Love both of themes, and can’t wait to see how you put them together. The outfits you show are fantastic. I want to steal the all the pieces in #s 3, 5 and 7.<br /> Pewter is a fun metal. From to time I see pewter items where the color is a bit warmer so one can’t tell overall if it is warm or cool. Something like that may work well for you if it is in right pieces, of course.<br /> I will be repeating my Dark Romance theme from past winter the next one,too, with small updates. Since that capsule is in pretty good shape, I can look for a small number of specific statement items that are hard find and if found, can be quite pricey. Two examples of what I have in mind are a “heavy metal” piece of clothing with lots of edgy, not pretty embellishments (not sequins or beads, but studs, little metal looking plates, etc, ) and a dark deconstructed asymmetric mixed media midi skirt that is only partially lace. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-themes-for-winter-2023#post-2321055 Wed, 03 May 2023 12:28:35 +0000 Helena 2321055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunningly gorgeous ...
