Never mind my idea to pull the darker color up, the brown of your hair actually echoes the boot color. I think it looks great as is! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/v-neck-challege-does-this-work#post-122577 Tue, 02 Feb 2010 02:58:16 +0000 Jean Gray 122577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Elegant, classy and feminine! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/v-neck-challege-does-this-work#post-122517 Tue, 02 Feb 2010 01:30:27 +0000 Carole 122517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Angie and cclele. This was fun and I'm glad I'm not off base in this outfit, I think I will actually wear this! I'm starting to really like skirts, who knew! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/v-neck-challege-does-this-work#post-122507 Tue, 02 Feb 2010 01:13:04 +0000 cciele 122507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Everything works in this outfit -- the proportions, the color, and the unexpected use of pearls as a belt. Well played! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/v-neck-challege-does-this-work#post-122492 Tue, 02 Feb 2010 00:54:08 +0000 Angie 122492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are JUST LOVELY. Big thumbs up from me on your entire outfit, Carole.</p> <p>I really like how you broke up the beige with the white shirt. Beige can be a ghastly colour against the skin and you gave it life - your pretty olive skin helps too :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/v-neck-challege-does-this-work#post-122424 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 21:53:24 +0000 Carole 122424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Joy. I hadn't worn those boots in 2 or 3 years, it's so nice to be able to wear them again, they are actually very comfortable! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/v-neck-challege-does-this-work#post-122400 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 20:34:06 +0000 Anonymous 122400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like a wonderful outfit. The brown boots go with your brown hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/v-neck-challege-does-this-work#post-122390 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 20:08:10 +0000 Carole 122390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Queenie, I know, I need to get back on the treadmill! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/v-neck-challege-does-this-work#post-122388 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 20:06:53 +0000 Queen Mum 122388@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's perfect as it- a necklace or bracelet would distract from your belt.<br /> I really need to get off of here and clean my house </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/v-neck-challege-does-this-work#post-122387 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 20:04:41 +0000 Carole 122387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Inge &amp; Kristine Thanks. It's funny how these challenges help us extend our wardrobe as I probably wouldn't have done this without it, but seeing the pictures helps you realize that it works...Kristine, the boots are actually brown, and there is this color brown in the skirt, I guess it doesn't show up very well, I should take a closeup of the fabric in the future so that you can see the colors better. Do you think I could wear a necklace with this belt? I could always wear a brown bangle that might help...thanks for the tips! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/v-neck-challege-does-this-work#post-122380 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 19:51:08 +0000 Kristine 122380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks great! Using pearls as a belt is so creative. </p> <p>My only idea is to pull a touch of black into the outfit, so the black boots don't look heavy compared to the light sandy tones. This could be something small, like a necklace with black beads or a black pin. The colors are really pretty on you and it's a great transition outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/v-neck-challege-does-this-work#post-122375 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 19:43:56 +0000 Inge 122375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a wonderful outfit Carole! The pearls as belt look amazing on you, and you're absolutely right, this is the perfect transitional outfit (love it with the boots and bare legs right now, and it will work equally well with flats and Summer tops).</p> <p>You also wear that sandy colour incredibly well (a little jealous here;-) I never really thought about this before, but it's a shade that looks beautiful with crisp white. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/v-neck-challege-does-this-work#post-122371 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 19:40:20 +0000 Carole 122371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Tricia!

Was it just a challenge for you or is it open to anyone? Need details, please. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/v-neck-challege-does-this-work#post-122359 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 19:25:40 +0000 Carole 122359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AJ, thanks, I wasn't sure about the pearls, I had read Angies post about how she doesn't belt V-necks, so I was taking a chance, but I think I like it better that way, at least with this skirt! Post pictures of you with your black pearls, I would love to see! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/v-neck-challege-does-this-work#post-122357 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 19:24:07 +0000 Tricia 122357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it!

I thought this could be a good transition outfit before wearing the skirt spring and summer with flats and lighter tops...what do you think? </p> <p><a href="http://i561.photobucket.com/albums/ss54/cagremillion/DSC03422.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i561.photobucket.com/al.....C03422.jpg</a> </p>
