I love that jacket and those pants. In 3 I like untucked. I think the mostly black of 4 is working well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-769258 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 16:08:41 +0000 Lisa 769258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #3 untucked, but I'm not a tucker myself anyway. And I adore that cape (?) in #2. It is so fun and perfect for fall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-769106 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 14:40:34 +0000 Kirti 769106@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab as always Denise and I really like #3 untucked! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768787 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 02:39:09 +0000 MsLuna 768787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise, thanks for posting these! I've been trying to see how booties can be worn with skinnies/denim leggings and you provided such great examples on this WiW! Thanks so much and you look amazing!</p> <p>Love all your outfits! #4 is my fave! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768784 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 02:36:24 +0000 ElleH 768784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all the outfits. 1 &amp; 4 are my favorite. Untucked in 3. I prefer 2 without the jacket. Too much pattern mixing for my eye. I'm not as fashionable as you though so take it with a grain of salt:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768776 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 02:30:17 +0000 Caro in Oz 768776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them all &amp; untucked for #3 imo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768734 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 02:03:49 +0000 JR 768734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooo, I love the tone-on-tone looks. And that Italian shawl is just gorgeous.</p> <p>FWIW, I think #3 looks great both ways. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768733 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 02:03:23 +0000 Anonymous 768733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Denise, you have just the cool-factor to pull off that blouse; it's just the thing with your tuxedo striped trousers. I never felt quite right in it. I'll have you know it cost me a whole dollar, too! I'm thrilled that you like it. </p> <p>I love your burgundy trend and I like the black sweater either way. Your new photo format is fabulous and artistic. Love it! (And I'm glad you're finally getting some cooler weather. Blow some my way!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768720 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 01:56:34 +0000 Transcona Shannon 768720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh the toile blouse is FAB on you Denise! Absolutely love it. And burgundy is stunning colour on as per pic #1. I also prefer the blouse untucked with the red skinnies. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768710 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 01:51:24 +0000 Aida 768710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All so so good Denise! I just love your outfits. #1 blows me away; the fringe hand-held bag is just brilliant, and the faux-suit in burgundy? Amazing. The print mix in #2 looks really fun, any way we could get a detail shot of the two prints together? #3 is a great high-contrast look, I'm always a huge fan of red+black. I MUCH prefer the tucked option there. And the layering in #4 looks awesome! Like a gradient from the back. Did you layer a more rigid jacket over a softer jacket? Man, I need to get some charcoal jeans pronto. I can't seem to find my perfect pair....</p> <p>(I am also very much enjoying your photo presentation recently, btw.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768622 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 00:55:11 +0000 CocoLion 768622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you ladies! I've added a close up of the Rae necklace. It's the jade one.</p> <p>JJsloane -- Claire knew I really wanted the blouse, she's that kind of girl!</p> <p>Angie -- 1000 thanks for the Killer ratings! I wasn't sure if the pattern mixing outfit really worked, it's good to know I'm not completely off base. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768586 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 00:35:51 +0000 kellygirl 768586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are queen of skinny jeans and you look awesome as usual! I love them all. Chic and uber cool, Denise! I love your style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768576 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 00:28:55 +0000 Jjsloane 768576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer untucked for 3 (more you) and I totally LOVE 2! Can't imagine why Claire swapped that gorgeous toile but so glad it found a great home. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768527 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 00:03:35 +0000 Angie 768527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh! And I prefer #3 untucked. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768521 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 00:02:41 +0000 annagybe 768521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Angie, #1 and #2 are my favorites. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768514 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 23:59:58 +0000 Angie 768514@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your outfits and outfit presentation are such a delight :)</p> <p>#1 and #2 are my absolute best - in fact, they are KILLER to the power of KILLER - which means the very best on YLF. Not easy to achieve and you got two citations in one post. I think that's a record. </p> <p>Now excuse me while I faint from your fabness. </p> <p>*faints* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768507 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 23:56:48 +0000 Carole 768507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, love each of these (you have such a unique and wonderful style).Great use of jackets and toppers! Love that shawl/poncho, I want one! Clever how you combined two jackets, love that, too. I think i prefer the 3rd outfit 1/2 tucked, but untucked looks equally great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768482 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 23:48:17 +0000 Gaylene 768482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous outfit posts! It's nice to see the outfit "in action" in #1. But my favorite is #4. I love that combination--cool, edgy, sophisticated, modern--I keep wanting to throw in more adjectives, but I'll stop with a BRILLIANT! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768477 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 23:44:25 +0000 catgirl 768477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG, jacket on jacket = brilliant! I say tuck in #3. The pattern mix in #2 is fantastic, and the burgundy looks great. </p> <p>*happy sigh* I love your outfit posts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768376 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 22:38:33 +0000 Mo 768376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so loving the tonal looks of #1 and 4! Perfect 10's!! I also admire the page set up work you're doing for your WIW's - looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768375 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 22:37:37 +0000 Suz 768375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise, so cool to see your swap meet finds!! </p> <p>And the jacket you're wearing is the one Ariadne bought, I think. I tried it on in this colour and didn't think it worked on me (for reasons unknown, as I had imagined it would/ should) but it looks great on you!! Love that look. </p> <p>I adore you in Claire's silk blouse, too. That is a such a fun and unexpected combo. </p> <p>In look 3 I actually prefer the sweater untucked even with the potential for leg shortening. Somehow it just works to my eye. </p> <p>I also love #4. The curve of the jacket echoes the top. I always wonder how to wear jackets with tops that bell out that way; now I see how it's done. Of course a person needs the right jacket to do it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw----swap-goodies-angies-mostly-black-formula#post-768368 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 22:32:06 +0000 CocoLion 768368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Picture 1 -- For a business meeting, going for a suit look. The jade necklace is from Rae, I am layering it with a heart pendant. The necklaces and fringe bag soften the suit look, no?</p> <p>Picture 2 -- For a women's service group meeting. Wearing a Toile de Jouy silk blouse from ClearlyClaire!</p> <p>Picture 3 -- Red &amp; Black. Do you prefer tucked or untucked for this contrasty, leg shortening look?</p> <p>Picture 4 -- Angie's "Mostly Black" formula (which I am getting lots of mileage from). </p> <p>I am wearing my new Matisse booties in pictures 2-3 and 4. They are super comfortable for a high heel. They are taller than most of my booties which are more like shoeties. I'm experimenting with tucking the pants into the booties but still think I prefer a leg line as in picture 1.</p> <p>Thanks for looking and commenting! </p>
