You actually don't need much more. Good proportions!<br /> I like the poncho, too, and think it would add interest as well as warmth to a variety of outfits. A stylish solution when travelling. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803966 Mon, 01 May 2017 15:14:53 +0000 Lisa 1803966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely outfits, and those shoes, swoon worthy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803931 Mon, 01 May 2017 14:10:09 +0000 Beth Ann 1803931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these looks for you -- and the shoes are stunning and practical, too! &nbsp;That's a double win! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803929 Mon, 01 May 2017 14:05:32 +0000 Jenn 1803929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Sal</b>, I've had my eye out for a higher-quality version of this dress, with no luck, as well. I wore it about a dozen times last year, and I can feel the fabric getting thinner and more worn with every wear. Something about the combination of the wrap top and shark bite hem on this really works for me, and I've found nothing else similar.</p> <p><b>Angie,&nbsp;</b>"killer" on a black-out? Can't ask for more than that. As much as I like black, I'm not particularly hard-edge, so it's the cognac and grey that make it work for me, too.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803916 Mon, 01 May 2017 13:07:17 +0000 rebecca saunders 1803916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful choices!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803915 Mon, 01 May 2017 13:06:05 +0000 Angie 1803915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER</p> <p>The cognac and grey make the look for me.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803763 Mon, 01 May 2017 00:22:16 +0000 Sal 1803763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really great looks Jenn, they are a great way for you to wear black out in your style.</p> <p>Love the new shoes and the poncho is terrific isn't it!! &nbsp;And nice to see that black maxi - I kept an eye out here for one similar but did not succeed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803688 Sun, 30 Apr 2017 16:13:46 +0000 Jenn 1803688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>La Pedestrienne,&nbsp;</b>I ordered my normal size, but my inclination would be to go up rather than down. If you're between sizes, though, I'd definitely contact her.

So good with the hemline of that dress, especially. How is the fit on the Sevillas -- did you order your regular size? I have to get more info from her about sizing, because according to her chart I'm between two sizes, and I have no idea whether I'd be better off going with the shorter size and her wide/loose last option, or going with the regular width in the longer size... I love the idea of custom shoes, but I don't love the idea of expensive mistakes.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803665 Sun, 30 Apr 2017 14:59:03 +0000 Anonymous 1803665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jenn - these outfits are feeling very you, and look great. I believe you've got some real workhorse pieces that will see you through summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803660 Sun, 30 Apr 2017 14:49:04 +0000 Jenn 1803660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>smittie</b>, I found myself going back to your recent "French 4" post over and over again, because every time I saw that Prada bag, I just had to have another look at the outfit. Despite very different body types, I suspect we might be moving in similar style directions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803657 Sun, 30 Apr 2017 14:44:02 +0000 Anonymous 1803657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are GREAT ensembles, Jenn!<br /> I love linen on you. It seems to fit your style very well.<br /> The slight drape of your top suits you well too. I think you're more of a soft natural than I am ;-)<br /> Also really love the shoes, and thanks for pointing out the mirror image with your hem. I hadn't noticed but it looks good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803654 Sun, 30 Apr 2017 14:38:55 +0000 Jenn 1803654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>jlpp -&nbsp;</b>I was amused by the way the shoes formed a mirror image of the shark bite hem on the dress. Glad someone else noticed!</p> <p><b>Bijou -&nbsp;</b>We've already had some days in the upper 70s and low 80s, so it's not all that optimistic. More importantly, though, we have a Florida vacation planned in less than a month, and I know these next few weeks are going to fly by, with the end of the school year!</p> <p>I'm surprised by how many of you mentioned bookending, as I consider cognac more of a bookend for redheads. My taupe oxfords are actually a much better match for my hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803585 Sun, 30 Apr 2017 07:00:17 +0000 Bijou 1803585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love how optimistic you are about summer being around the corner. Black out (with fab bookending shoes) works wonderfully on you. All outfits are great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803568 Sun, 30 Apr 2017 03:48:15 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1803568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are great looks, and the shoes are super chic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803566 Sun, 30 Apr 2017 03:45:44 +0000 Anonymous 1803566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really love the shoes with the dress, in particular.

I'm liking the idea of having some summer outfits mapped out in advance, and I'll definitely doing more of this before the season kicks in for real. I think any of these could work with my cognac sandals, as well, for a more casual look. The Sevilla Smiths are a bit dressier than I anticipated, but I love them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803551 Sun, 30 Apr 2017 01:46:41 +0000 Brooklyn 1803551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my, how fabulous you look! I especially love no 1. So chic.<br /> And I love seeing the EF poncho. It's almost cool enough for me to wear mine (still t-shirt and skort weather today). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803546 Sun, 30 Apr 2017 01:35:07 +0000 Anonymous 1803546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all these outfits very much and have liked the style of those shoes since I first saw them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-almost-black-out#post-1803543 Sun, 30 Apr 2017 01:28:44 +0000 Jenn 1803543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hah <b>LisaP</b>!

My wardrobe pairs cognac with black, rather than a metallic or navy, so this is my more earthy interpretation. </p> <p>#1 is a jersey crossover tee with linen slouchy pants, and my new Sevilla Smith flats. </p> <p>#2 and 3 are my beloved Kohl's maxi dress with the new flats and (in #3) the EF merino poncho over the top. I plan to wear the poncho for cool summer evenings and airplane travel.</p> <p>I'll be writing a post soon about the Sevilla Smith shoes, because they're something special. </p>
