Very cute with the jacket and boots!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wit-olive-and-black#post-1452464 Fri, 06 Mar 2015 23:19:47 +0000 Anonymous 1452464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like you in olive! Also really like the look in the first photo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wit-olive-and-black#post-1452378 Fri, 06 Mar 2015 20:36:19 +0000 MuseumGal 1452378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG! &nbsp;When did you go read and when did it get so long??? &nbsp;You look wonderful! &nbsp;I like the olive, I think it goes with the new hair - I find olive can wash out low contrast brunettes - it certainly washes me out anyway. &nbsp;But I like it on you. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wit-olive-and-black#post-1452377 Fri, 06 Mar 2015 20:35:21 +0000 Karie 1452377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the dress open best. Looks good with your new hair color! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wit-olive-and-black#post-1452376 Fri, 06 Mar 2015 20:34:54 +0000 Nebraskim 1452376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this is fun. I, too, love olive but it's not my best color, so like Sara L.'s sister, I tend to use a scarf or layer something to keep it directly away from my face. I have a very similar dress to this, in olive corduroy and I love to wear it with a colorful turtleneck underneath...I tend to pair it with pink but it would look good with navy like you show here or even colors like orange or burgundy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wit-olive-and-black#post-1452347 Fri, 06 Mar 2015 19:24:20 +0000 MTBGirl 1452347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it works on you. I like the dress open. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wit-olive-and-black#post-1452341 Fri, 06 Mar 2015 19:16:08 +0000 Aida 1452341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely works with the new hair color I prefer the second outfit but they're both fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wit-olive-and-black#post-1452262 Fri, 06 Mar 2015 17:10:17 +0000 rachylou 1452262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The hair seems to make a difference. The dress and buckle boots are outstanding.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wit-olive-and-black#post-1452257 Fri, 06 Mar 2015 16:53:21 +0000 Sara L. 1452257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My sister also looks terrible in olive and she usually wears it with a scarf to keep the color away from her face.&nbsp; With your new hair, the color looks good on you though.&nbsp; I like both outfits - fun layering and great boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wit-olive-and-black#post-1452207 Fri, 06 Mar 2015 15:41:35 +0000 amiable 1452207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks! &nbsp;I like the way it feels left open too - and think it'll earn some wear when it's warm enough to not wear the thermal long-sleeves under it. &nbsp;<br />And it's amazing how the different hair color changes the color of my skin (or rather, gives the illusion of changing my skin color - it's not like it burned or dyed my skin, it just makes it look more pink)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wit-olive-and-black#post-1452202 Fri, 06 Mar 2015 15:31:58 +0000 Anonymous 1452202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! The olive looks lovely with your hair and complexion. The hair really makes your face nice and rosy, and that works well with the olive (like Angie's Olive and Pink pairing). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wit-olive-and-black#post-1452201 Fri, 06 Mar 2015 15:31:48 +0000 texstyle 1452201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it totally works - in fact, I think it looks really great. I especially like #1 with the dress left open like a long jacket. Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wit-olive-and-black#post-1452199 Fri, 06 Mar 2015 15:26:58 +0000 amiable 1452199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Citron is, so far, about the worst color on me. &nbsp;Olive is a not-so-distant second worst color, but I find it almost irresistible in a thrift store and keep trying it.</p> <p>This is the most recent olive acquisition - bought in the 10/$10 Goodwill sale a couple of weeks ago. &nbsp;I like the dress (and when it's not over a bunch of layers, I think it fits well), but I'm not sure I can pull off the color.</p> <p>Now that my hair is red though, I figured I may as well try olive again&nbsp;when I saw the ensemble today.</p> <p>So here's two attempts - worn over my skirted leggings and a thermal tee, and with my black leather jacket and boots.</p> <p>I doubt I'll wear it out today, but is there anything about this that works? &nbsp;(pic 3 shows the color more closely with my hair and complexion)</p> <p> </p>
