I love both outfits </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574327 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 03:49:00 +0000 Mo 574327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it! I prefer the boots in #1 because they define the ankle a bit more but both jacket looks are total winners. Funny, I was just wondering today about cuffing over shorter boots . . . perhaps next time, now that I've seen your inspirations! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574323 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 03:43:34 +0000 kellygirl 574323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, lyn , Anna, True Colors,Rae, Shannon, Angie, Mandipa, MaryK, Zapotee, Scarlet, Lisa, Victoria, Meredith, krishnidoux, Running Sue, Jjsloane Traci, Alicat, kcanshop, SarahA, Aida, Suz, Claire, and Christieanne! </p> <p>I’m sorry to get back so late to comment. I was having ISP issues that finally got resolved tonight. I feel like I’ve been reunited with a long lost friend! Glad the rolled up jeans work--I may have to hem them a tad so the roll isn’t so bulky--especially if I try to roll them a bit higher above the short boot. Thanks so much for the feedback. I’m so relieved that I passed the non-stumpifying test : ) </p> <p>@lyn: Thank you. Believe me, these pants CAN do wrong when paired with Cons. It’s practical but not pretty!<br /> @Shannon: The booties are Mossimo from Target. They are some kind of faux suede that I managed to pick up on clearance. I had wanted to try a desert boot-ish kind of wedge but didn’t want to spend an arm and leg for something that might not be that versatile. Turns out they’re comfy because of the platform and pretty darn useful. They seem to go with lots!<br /> @Zapotee: My duppa doesn’t look that great in this either--but they are uber comfy. That’s got to count for something! I think it would work with rolled up skinnies--it might even look better. I loved Jjsloane’s version--she posted her outfits today and they were awesome!<br /> @Lisa: This would be a great shorts alternative. I’m thinking I might be able to wear these in warmer weather too because they are fairly loose.<br /> @krishnidoux: Thank you. I love how you break down the vibes : )<br /> @RunningSue: I’m short too. Looking forward to seeing your booties in action : )<br /> @jjsloane: Thank you. Right back at you. I love the outfits you posted today. I’m totally going to try and copy yours! The orange jacket is Forever 21. I know, I know. I had posted it awhile ago and got the YLF blessing. I didn’t see it on the website but it may come back. I notice a lot of their stuff seems to go in and out of stock. It’s cotton and lined and has funky gold zips on the pockets.<br /> @Aida: Thanks, Blazer Triplet : ) I may break down and hem the pants a tad. I can’t do the peg roll because they are so tapered at the ankle--but hemming them will reduce the bulk. The boots are an early YLF purchase--Steve Madden Maximus if I recall.</p> <p>ETA: Thanks sarah, AJ and MsKatieKat for chiming in!<br /> @Sarah: I can’t believe I’m reaching maximum capacity in the blazer department! I’m having fun with them though : ) I hope it’s not a phase. Isn’t that the truth? I love reading Angie’s comments and then gloating when I get it right--”that’s right, uh huh!” </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574319 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 03:38:29 +0000 MsLuna 574319@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Few women I know can pull off the "boyfriend" jean look and you NAILED IT! And I agree with lyn... You look A LOT BETTER than the magazine! You have more of a polish to it!</p> <p>The orange jacket is so bright! Love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574317 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 03:33:21 +0000 AJ 574317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Trendy and fun! Nicely styled! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574314 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 03:28:33 +0000 sarah 574314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look awesome, Kelly! I'm so proud of myself that I figured out what Angie was going to say before she said it - tee-hee - I think I'm finally getting some of this figured out. Of course, you figured it out and then executed - well done!</p> <p>You're really getting that casual OTG jacket look down, aren't you!? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574309 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 03:16:36 +0000 christieanne 574309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You two-upped the inspiration photo! Very creative styling with the orange jacket - so up to date. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574304 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 03:11:04 +0000 Anonymous 574304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fierce! Way to show a little slender ankle in #2. Love the cropped orange blazer too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574207 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 01:46:46 +0000 Suz 574207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoa, those boots are SO great! I love both looks, and the orange blazer is just so much fun! I am coming back to study how you've done this without stumpifying. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574165 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 01:09:49 +0000 Aida 574165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute! I like the roll height of #2 more than #1, and I think both would improve with a tighter roll (like a high peg roll). You have the BEST boots, Kelly! These are both awesome, I'm especially digging the pair in #1.</p> <p>(I copied YOU and bought that blazer when you first posted it, by the way ^^) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574094 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 23:49:46 +0000 Sarah A 574094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think both looks ars super duper! I like the orange best, but I think k can shop hit it... Another roll on the legs and 1 would be getting more love! Awesome to go from inspiration to such fab outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574091 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 23:47:21 +0000 K. Period. 574091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them both too! And honestly, I think if you rolled up #1 maybe just an inch more, showing just the slightest smidge more leg, it would be gettin' all the same love that #2 is gettin' now. Both super cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574090 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 23:46:24 +0000 Anonymous 574090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These both look fantastic, Kelly! Big love! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574086 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 23:39:42 +0000 Traci 574086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love #2. That little bit of skin at the ankle is super flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574083 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 23:37:05 +0000 Jjsloane 574083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I totally bookmarked that look and you've nailed it. I love my BF jeans and am looking for another pair but a little slimmer fit. So jealous, but I'll be copying you now! LOVE LOVE that orange jacket - details??? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574060 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 22:39:09 +0000 RunningSue 574060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely love outfit #1 and will try and copy it with things I have. I am short and cropped jeans do not always work. I have a pair of booties similar to yours and have been stumped with how to wear them. Now I know!</p> <p>I love the colors in #2, they are very flattering on you.</p> <p>Great job and inspiration. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-574049 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 22:17:59 +0000 krishnidoux 574049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Delightful! You really did this well. Both booties have their own styles and so the two version of this formula give off a very different vibe. The first is very stylish and breezy, in an "Italian" way almost; the second one is stylish and very clean lines, a little futurist, yet relaxed. Both are very dynamic and suit you awesomely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-573999 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 20:52:11 +0000 Meredith1953 573999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both looks are so cute on you! I love both pairs of boots your blazers always look so sharp too! The orange color is outstanding on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-573934 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 19:00:10 +0000 Victoria 573934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both looks, I think you did excellent job! And orange blazer is awesome </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-573927 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 18:55:40 +0000 Lisa 573927@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both of these because the footwear is lighter allowing the legline to extend desptie the cuffed jean. I've been eyeballing cuffed jeans myself lately, they might be a fun alternative to shorts in the summer for me since I'm always cold in a/c anyway. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-573908 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 18:43:11 +0000 Scarlet 573908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like 2. The proportions of that one work better to my eye--more skin showing at the ankle and more cropped jacket/shirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-573890 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 18:26:00 +0000 Anonymous 573890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh I love this!<br /> Would it work with rolled up skinnies? I don't have BF jeans plus my duppa looks hideous in oversized anything. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-573874 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 18:12:08 +0000 MsMary 573874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great! Gotta copy your copy with my orange blazer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-573858 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 17:54:07 +0000 ManidipaM 573858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look FANTASTIC, and so much peppier than the inspiration photo to boot! You're ticking quite a lot of trend boxes too --- the green , the orange, the crop, the wedge, the florals. And I can't decide which of your shoes to covet a bit more, because both look so fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-573836 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 17:23:19 +0000 Angie 573836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these outfits too! Heels, nude for you footwear, and a shorter cropped length have de-stumpified the look. Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-573830 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 17:15:36 +0000 Transcona Shannon 573830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this looks great - good styling! What booties are those you're wearing in outfit #2 with the orange blazer? They've fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-573828 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 17:15:24 +0000 rae 573828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I like it! I think the leg line is kept high enough to do a rolled jean like this, and that you've rolled them high enough to not stumpify yourself. Awesome job! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-573826 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 17:13:29 +0000 True Colors 573826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with lyn, both looks are great! What a nice way to get even more use from a fun pair of jeans! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-573825 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 17:13:27 +0000 annagybe 573825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you did great. I may have to copy, but I don't have a light colored blazer. Hmm, maybe my grey Helmut Lang. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stylewatch-copy-cat-attempt#post-573817 Wed, 21 Mar 2012 17:05:21 +0000 lyn* 573817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh; I think your look is better than the magazine (InStyle?) one! The orange blazer is amazing; and I love your green top - colours look so nice next to your complexion!</p> <p>BTW; I think you can do almost no wrong with these jeans styled like you have! </p>
