The shade of green is stunning on you. Grab everything you see in that color. I really like the way you are wearing the bag here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1023571 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 12:45:46 +0000 Scarlet 1023571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks perfect!

They are so true to your style, and you wear them like no other. The bag is a fun addition to your wardrobe, and I think you should keep it. Wear as much green as you please, because it's definitely your color!</p> <p>In regards of the red shoes you donated to me: I love them and consider them as essentials in my wardrobe :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1023538 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 10:26:17 +0000 Astrid 1023538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1023392 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 01:13:22 +0000 donnat 1023392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That outfit looks lovely on you. Love the skirt, tights, green jacket and the bag. Good work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1023349 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 00:24:33 +0000 Suz 1023349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Moni said! I also think the tights work beautifully with the studs of the bag. Which I like for you, by the way. Maybe not as an everyday bag, but as an occasional bag, for sure. As a crossbody it works well. You look terrific!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1023264 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 23:03:26 +0000 Caro in Oz 1023264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the whole outfit. That green is fantastic on you &amp; you rock that skirt </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1023214 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 22:03:05 +0000 Lyn D. 1023214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the bag, and from the back the stud detail with the spot tights adds great interest to your outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1023092 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 20:04:58 +0000 Astrid 1023092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Beth Ann! The last few days have been warmer again, but it's going to get colder again next week. I have to say I missed layering... And you're right, the shorter hair changes everything! I feel much more stylish with the new length in my everyday looks.</p> <p>Thanks Pastrygirl! The bag is big enough for my umbrella, so definitely useful for bad weather.</p> <p>Thanks Manidipa! I really love these tights. I duplicated them when I bought them, but now I've got only this pair left and they are starting to show a bit wear. I've looked but I haven't seen a suitable replacement so far.</p> <p>Thanks Diane and Julie!</p> <p>Thanks Irene! But no to the hair dyeing. My hair isn't very robust and it doesn't like dye much. And I'm too lazy to get my roots done regularly anyway.</p> <p>Thanks Cobaltblue and Sara!</p> <p>Thanks Umfrumped! I always have black solid tights, but I wear my patterned ones more often because they instantly add interest to an outfit. You just have to take care that the pattern isn't too in-your-face or it gets difficult to pair with things. These work with everything.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1023020 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 18:26:48 +0000 unfrumped 1023020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally great. Wear more green!<br />And you're inspiring me to keep up my search for some patterned tights that I can use in place of solid black. They add just the right note. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1023017 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 18:24:34 +0000 Sara L. 1023017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The green jacket looks great on you!&nbsp; I agree with ManidipaM that the patterned tights look really good here.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1023009 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 18:19:34 +0000 cobaltblue 1023009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very cute! I do love the green. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1023004 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 18:13:26 +0000 Irene 1023004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That green... ah... that green... and you should dye your hair red. I already see you as a ginger here (lol) and it suits you very nicely!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1022980 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 18:01:02 +0000 JulieJohn 1022980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Poetry in motion! I think you look great in those shapes, and I love the green on you. I think that purse looks super, keep using it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1022977 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 17:57:38 +0000 Anonymous 1022977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Astrid, you have shown us some fabulous outfits recently and this one is no exception. In fact I think my favourite to date. You look fabulous! I love the pattern on the&nbsp;tights, the studded bag, the green jacket, your hair... everything </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1022964 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 17:43:28 +0000 ManidipaM 1022964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This may be the first time I am charmed more by the incidental than the obviously gorgeous star piece which offers perfect flattery! The tights are an inspired choice for bookending the scarf ss well as adding the essential hint of lightheartedness in a rich, dark outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1022950 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 17:28:14 +0000 pastrygirl 1022950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this outfit on you! And the bag. I have one faux leather bag that I like to use in rainy or snowy weather. It has its place! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1022949 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 17:26:29 +0000 Beth Ann 1022949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is your signature look at its very best, Astrid.&nbsp; Love the color of the jacket and the scarf.&nbsp; The bag looks wondeful with the ensemble, too.</p> <p>BTW --- your change is hair is really giving these look a little modern flair, and you are showing a great eye for patterned legwear.&nbsp; </p> <p>Still to warm here to even think about wearing your look.&nbsp; Sigh.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1022895 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 16:49:55 +0000 Astrid 1022895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Vickie! You're right, I'm no clothing snob either (can't be with my budget anyway). Although I do prefer the feel of leather... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1022893 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 16:48:21 +0000 Vickie KY 1022893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the green jacket on you. Very good outfit. The bag is great. Who cares if it is real leather. I am not a clothing snob&nbsp; - if I like it that is all that matters.<br />Vickie </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1022888 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 16:43:48 +0000 Astrid 1022888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Kelly! I'm glad you like the bag, for me it depends very much on the outfit whether I like it or not. I'm also a fan of the mini studs, but not that much taken in by the patch work.</p> <p>Thanks AviaMariah! That's one of my favourite greens, so I didn't hesitate when I saw the jacket. And the jacket is cropped enough for my short waist too! </p> <p>Thanks Brenda! I'm mostly using crossbody bags, I just like it to have my hands completely free.</p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1022885 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 16:41:06 +0000 qfbrenda 1022885@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute!&nbsp; I love that jacket on you... perfect color and fit.&nbsp; And the bag looks like a great one for you.&nbsp; I'm a cross body fan. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1022882 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 16:39:59 +0000 AviaMariah 1022882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That color green is STUNNING on you. I about fell off my chair! &nbsp;I can't even remember your question. &nbsp;;) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1022877 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 16:38:07 +0000 kellygirl 1022877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SO cute, Astrid. I love your skirt style. Great crossbody too. I love the studs on it--simple but fun!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---back-to-the-roots#post-1022873 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 16:34:28 +0000 Astrid 1022873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's an outfit I wore recently. After wearing jeans all the time I was glad to be back in my favourite skirt - paired with the new oxfords. </p> <p>What do you think about the bag (with this outfit)? It was a present and I never quite know what to pair it with. It's only pleather, I do use it more though since I've made a true crossbody bag out of it and cut the shorter strap off. </p>
