Hmmm. I don't have a metallic flat yet but I do have the cognac flats so that would have been a better choice then the black flats. Thanks! @Mona, Thanks so much! I don't really own much red so it's nice to know this shade looks good! @Anne, Thank you for liking the outfit! @Christyg, Yes I do indeed wear a lot of scarves but it is nice to give them a rest once in awhile. I agree about a lighter shoe! I am really glad you think the red with the striped taupe top play nicely together. @Shevia, I always try to have some closeup of the color near my face so I get opinions. I am so glad you like the jacket and the outfit on me!

Great outfit. christy on "Taupe, Gray, Black and Red on a Windy Day" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-gray-black-and-red-on-a-windy-day#post-617100 Fri, 11 May 2012 01:02:42 +0000 christy 617100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great outfit! Scarves are your signature, but it's refreshing to see you without one also! I agree with Aida that you might want to try a lighter shoe with this combo. That jacket is fantastic. It's a great color on you and pairs beautifully with that striped top. anne on "Taupe, Gray, Black and Red on a Windy Day" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-gray-black-and-red-on-a-windy-day#post-617088 Fri, 11 May 2012 00:44:42 +0000 anne 617088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love that outfit and jacket.

Aida on "Taupe, Gray, Black and Red on a Windy Day" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-gray-black-and-red-on-a-windy-day#post-617025 Thu, 10 May 2012 23:15:49 +0000 Aida 617025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Lovely outfit Merideth, I love how the red looks with the soft neutrals. The black shoes are giving me a little pause, though they are a delicate cut the darkness feels a little heavy for this otherwise light outfit. I'd rather see a metallic. That's just me, though Meredith1953 on "Taupe, Gray, Black and Red on a Windy Day" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-gray-black-and-red-on-a-windy-day#post-616978 Thu, 10 May 2012 22:12:25 +0000 Meredith1953 616978@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ @Beth Ann, Yep. The red bag doesn't really bring anything to the party! I'll usually wear it with neutrals. Beth Ann on "Taupe, Gray, Black and Red on a Windy Day" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-gray-black-and-red-on-a-windy-day#post-616962 Thu, 10 May 2012 21:24:45 +0000 Beth Ann 616962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love the structure and shape, along with the color of the red jacket. It's terrific on you! I agree with Sylvie that I'd try another bag, even though the red one is quite pretty!

I find myself wearing the other more but I do really like this one also! @Shannon, Thanks! I like the red and taupe also. It makes it a little more casual then wearing black or a dark color. @Kiwichik, Thanks so much! @Sylvie, Thanks for liking the red on me and I think you are absolutely right that the purse and the jacket sort of compete for attention. I thought I would try the matchy match but probably a light cream or even a taupe or black purse would be better! Sylvie on "Taupe, Gray, Black and Red on a Windy Day" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-gray-black-and-red-on-a-windy-day#post-616903 Thu, 10 May 2012 19:28:36 +0000 Sylvie 616903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Red is such a fantastic color on you. The only thing I'd suggest is a different colored bag if you have one. The red bag gets lost on top of the red jacket and both pieces really want to shine on their own.

That jacket is a beautiful on you Meredith! rae on "Taupe, Gray, Black and Red on a Windy Day" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-gray-black-and-red-on-a-windy-day#post-616863 Thu, 10 May 2012 18:52:32 +0000 rae 616863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think I missed when you got this jacket, but it is amazing on you! And your colors are great to keep that spring feeling even while keeping warm.

After our lovely warm weather yesterday it is a little disappointing. I wanted to be comfortable but warm for my mid-day walk so I pulled out my Express red faux leather jacket that hadn't made it into my workplace yet and decided to wear it. WIW today: red faux leather moto jacket - Express taupe striped long sleeve t - AT gray straightleg jeans - Levi Demi-Curve black ballet flats - Jessica Simpson white watch opal earrings red handbag I like the combo together and decided to keep it unadorned so no scarf for a change! I hope you like it.
