Richness and subtlety, layers of detail--like a luscious tapestry. Understated but detailed pattern, contemporary sophistication and "danger" (studs, lots of metal, sharp lines) with the paradox of softness in texture, color, print, or drape. Mixed neutrals that are powerful on their own but more together. </p> <p>It's a complex, striking look that's not overdone or hard-edged dramatic. It keeps a simplicity in the trim lines and gentle prints and textures that add up to more than you would expect. It's the kind of look that you can keep on looking at, not out of confusion or astonishment at something outrageous but like you would simultaneously study and enjoy a fine painting. </p> <p>It demands creativity and commands respect. A fascinating woman would live in this style. I'm won over and hope to see you evolve with it. Epiphanies are exciting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-outfit-i-just-came-across-represents#post-1014428 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 02:05:41 +0000 Jaime 1014428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The patterned&nbsp;jeans are definitely something you could find and wear. Along with the bold cuffs and belt. Start building from there! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-outfit-i-just-came-across-represents#post-1014312 Tue, 27 Aug 2013 00:22:09 +0000 Mochi 1014312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone. I think the glam thing is no surprise, but I didn't see "matador" coming, LOL. But I love it! It will certainly give me more clarity when trying to forge together a unique look.&nbsp;</p> <p>Unfortunately, Linea Pelle was unhelpful. They said they outsource to stylists so they don't have information on the accompanying clothes. And I'm particularly haunted now by that dress. I am sad. Maybe someday I could get a very handy sewer/tailor to help me design an approximation. The drape of the fabric is exquisite and I'm not sure if that could be recreated from a not-too-detailed pic..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-outfit-i-just-came-across-represents#post-1014255 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 23:36:11 +0000 Caro in Oz 1014255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with the others &amp; think you could do&nbsp;some sophisticated glam rock for sure. Love the matador references too &amp; the idea of a&nbsp;&nbsp;traje de luces&nbsp;as a wardrobe basic </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-outfit-i-just-came-across-represents#post-1014084 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 17:52:10 +0000 rachylou 1014084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was going to say, there's something Spanish about the look to my eye. Urban cowboy, but not kitschy John Travolta urban cowboy. Sophisticated urban cowboy. I love the brown look - lol, my bf would go mad with glee. The short caramel jacket with brown skinnies look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-outfit-i-just-came-across-represents#post-1014075 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 17:36:12 +0000 Cindy 1014075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is it the monochromatic mix of textures that you are drawn to? That is what immediately caught my eye. I'd call this "Sophisticated Rocker Chick". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-outfit-i-just-came-across-represents#post-1014016 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 16:39:08 +0000 Janet 1014016@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep! I'm nodding along with the other observations here -- a little matador, rock'n'roll, but in a sophisticated way. I identify with this too -- no surprise! I can definitely see you incorporating these kinds of details in your style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-outfit-i-just-came-across-represents#post-1013988 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 16:26:59 +0000 catgirl 1013988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are great inspiration in terms of texture and print and details.&nbsp; The jacket and shoes will change the feel of the outfit too.&nbsp; I agree, rocker/matador is what this seems to evoke.&nbsp; Sort of a decadent, glam version of rock chic with some sort of Spanish twist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-outfit-i-just-came-across-represents#post-1013972 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 16:14:15 +0000 T-Rex 1013972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To me, it's also a bit "rock and roll". The pants in particular look like something a 1970's rock star would have worn. The studded bracelets have that vibe as well. Maybe you could pull up old pics of the Rolling Stones and other bands from that era for some inspiration. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-outfit-i-just-came-across-represents#post-1013879 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 14:00:57 +0000 Suz 1013879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Diana -- it's an offshoot&nbsp;of your Romantic Dandy. All fits together in my mind with your earlier stated goals. You can use your new "Chanel" type jacket to create similar looks.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-outfit-i-just-came-across-represents#post-1013866 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 13:53:40 +0000 Mochi 1013866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're onto something, Diana. I do loves me my dramatic statement pieces and looks....even more funny considering my introverted bent in general. The tight pants (though it's more the pattern on them than the skinny silhouette that strike me), the cropped jacket with the slim, mod lines. Maybe my favorite part of this outfit is the cuff. Pants too. At least I could get hold of the belt and bracelets. I'm loving this brand. A bit too much!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-outfit-i-just-came-across-represents#post-1013856 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 13:44:01 +0000 Diana 1013856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This outfit says "matador" to me. Kind of like your original romantic dandy but with a more Mediterranean flair, a little more passion.<br /> Sooo... Maybe add a little more drama to your existing pieces? I see this look as having lots of black or dark, rich colors, and gold. It would be perfect for tango! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-outfit-i-just-came-across-represents#post-1013854 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 13:42:00 +0000 rute 1013854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the jacket, the barcelets and the clutch! Just change the pants por black skinny jeans and you are ready to wear it on your daily life!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-outfit-i-just-came-across-represents#post-1013846 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 13:29:44 +0000 Mochi 1013846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Incidentally, LP's Lookbook has some killer ensembles. The outfit with the rasperry satchel I could see Zap rocking. I love the gold Chanel jacket and would probably kill for the halter dress. Also the cropped cognac jacket. Sigh. They don't even ID the clothes. I left a question for them&nbsp;on their FB wall.&nbsp; </p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.lineapelle.com/lookbook-fall-2013">http://www.lineapelle.com/lookbook-fall-2013</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-outfit-i-just-came-across-represents#post-1013843 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 13:26:04 +0000 Mochi 1013843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>...an inarticulate stab at how I'd like my style to go forward--at least a major part of it. And so now I will of course attempt to articulate it.&nbsp;</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.laceyinthecity.com/2013/07/linea-pelle-bracelet-winner.html">http://www.laceyinthecity.com/.....inner.html</a></p> <p>Different elements that seem to complement each other well. The modish studs on the bracelets. The similarly jaunty, crisp lines of the sleeve cuff. (I had thought that this was a leather jacket at first. It's not. Here's a better look.&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.lineapelle.com/belts/by-collection/collection?p=4">http://www.lineapelle.com/belt.....ection?p=4</a>&nbsp;) The rugged texture of the vest. The antique, masculine style of the belt. And the intricate pattern on the jeans--a sober, restrained&nbsp;boho that doesn't annoy me (unlike a "Free People" type of pseudo-hippie boho look). It's more like a tapestry or some antique fabric.&nbsp;And the dark, masculine blue and black&nbsp;tied in with the warm cream, golds and rose gold. It all gels together so nicely and seems&nbsp;really organic, wearable and not overly fussy, but still so sharp and chic.&nbsp;</p> <p>How to replicate that in real life on an almost-daily basis? Do I want to? I'm just thinking out loud here. I feel like I stumbled on a big epiphany. I'm so inexperienced at taking things to the next level, though.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for reading!&nbsp; </p>
