Good point Suz! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-876252 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 00:58:41 +0000 Suz 876252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE it! You are way too hard on yourself (especially for someone who would otherwise be wearing her bathrobe, lol). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875822 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 18:33:07 +0000 ElleH 875822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks great as is. No need to change anything! However, since you mentioned it a contrasting boot will visually shorten anyone's leg. I think your legs look long enough so no problem. If you don't like it then you could wear a grey boot or lower vamp shoe. Also a tucked or semi tucked top would lengthen the leg but again you don't need to you look great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875762 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 17:42:00 +0000 RandomThoughts (Andrea) 875762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this is super cool. Totally digging it! The top is really neat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875686 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 16:09:25 +0000 Marlene1 875686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your outfits (today and yesterday.) Could you share the care instructions on your Danier top - I love it so much, but I don't know how to take care of a sweater with leather sleeves. You look fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875606 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 15:13:43 +0000 Beth Ann 875606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The boots add a little toughness, and they ground the look, if you know what I mean. The inspiration photo is a lighter look, also fab. Of course, wearing pumps around the house? Not so much. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875603 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 15:12:29 +0000 kellygirl 875603@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this is great and those jeans are fab on you. I think wearing a lighter color bootie will make your leg line look longer if that is what you are after. You look rocker cool as is. Seems like these are a great transition jean--light color and fun print. You make ON jeans look very posh! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875599 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 15:07:30 +0000 JennyK (NC) 875599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's definitely not a frumpy outfit! I love the boots with it and don't see it as leg-shortening at all. Edgy and put-together. Love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875552 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:10:37 +0000 4babiesMe 875552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this looks great on you! Very cool shirt, and it's paired perfectly with leopard print. Well done. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875546 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:00:38 +0000 annaj 875546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look great! Looks like a really comfortable, but stylish outfit! Great work!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875527 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 13:26:35 +0000 Anonymous 875527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks good to me too. I don't see 'off' and I think we probably are highly critical of ourselves. You could try booties but the boots you have on aren't exactly knee high either. I love the high low top and you look sooo slim. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875522 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 13:22:34 +0000 Transcona Shannon 875522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that Danier top is stunning on you Rae and having seen it in person, I know how beautiful it is. Don't worry about how it photographs. It pairs beautifully with the leopard skinnies (which look amazing on you BTW). I agree that booties probably would have elongated your leg line more, but I also think the boots bookend the top brilliantly. No worries on this outfit - YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875517 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 13:17:28 +0000 Claudia 875517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As we used to say in New England (probably before you were born), cool beans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875515 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 13:16:03 +0000 Jaime 875515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks terrific to me! I love your pose in #2 also. I think the top is very flattering in the photos - if it looks better in person you must be stopping traffic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875510 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 13:12:55 +0000 Mona 875510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These leopard skinnies are lovely on you and the leather top is super paired with boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875502 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 13:00:57 +0000 Sona 875502@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love the on trend skinnies + leather + tough boots look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875501 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 13:00:56 +0000 Day Vies 875501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You really mean it when you say no frump! I love this look. The leopard jeans look so right on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875486 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 12:33:22 +0000 Ornella 875486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great one, again. Booties might have been an option to address your concern, but to my eye everything works.</p> <p>Ah, the power of fab individual pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875478 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 12:19:55 +0000 Anonymous 875478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, this looks good. I think your black booties would work better to elongate your leg line, but this isn't a bad look at all! I think a blue top and your blue oxfords would be cute, or your Joie top and your white oxfords :)</p> <p>I like the skinnies, I think you will have a lot of fun with them </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875475 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 12:12:25 +0000 Karie 875475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, there are no unflattering spots on you! I think this looks good as is. If you wore flats or gray boots, it probably wouldn't seem as leg shortening to you. I love the asymmetrical hemline on your leather sleeved top, and it looks great the way you're wearing it, but did you try it with the semi-tuck like in the photo? I'll bet that would look good too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875474 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 12:10:00 +0000 Lauren 875474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE this outfit! I kind of love that the hem in the back is longer but shorter in the front. Doesn't truncate the leg line but still provides some coverage. With some black booties for Winter, you're golden. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875470 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 12:02:39 +0000 Agnes 875470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look really young in this out fit. Its good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875469 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 12:00:58 +0000 Raisin 875469@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For sure Ramya! I'm probably being picky. I'm not changing tough, just noticing things. I do also feel like it's more in the photos, so maybe that's what gets me. Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875466 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 11:56:52 +0000 ramya 875466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>no leg shortening visible Rae<br /> Maybe we are our own worst critic here </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---day-2-of-no-frump-leopard-and-leather#post-875464 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 11:55:23 +0000 Raisin 875464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure about today's outfit. Something about it seems off, I feel like the boots shorten my legs and the top is hitting at an unflattering spot. Anyway, I'm dressed now, so I'm wearing it! Haha!</p> <p>These are the leopard jeans from ON that were similar to the Current and Elliott ones I liked, but only $20. Pairing them with the leather sleeved top. I find this top looks a lot less flattering in photos than in person, so maybe that's what is throwing me off. The shape looks off in the photos, I guess because the black photographs poorly. Took a bit of inspiration from Pinterest. I do have a similar blue shirt, maybe I should have tried that instead. Oh well, next time! </p>
