Your hair is so perfect with the way you wear your clothes too...</p> <p>I love love love the culottes outfit and that long duster piece - you are officially my inspiration with that ensemble:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits/page/2#post-1351127 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 14:37:49 +0000 Parsley 1351127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The signs are so right: you DO look dazzling and riveting!<br />Both of your opera outfits are fabulous, and I love how different they are from each other.&nbsp;<br />The necklace is stunning, and that avant garde&nbsp;culotte outfit&nbsp;is wonderful on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1351078 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 13:26:36 +0000 Diana 1351078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such fantastic outfits! I love that you got to dress up in two different ways. So fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1351032 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 12:20:22 +0000 viva 1351032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the picture of you and your mother, and that necklace! AMAZING. <br />I, too, prefer the no-hose look, but either way you just look stunning. You are just a vision in black and white. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1351028 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 12:17:54 +0000 Ingunn 1351028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes I'm reading and I love that you are full of contradictions, Denise. You look amazing in every one of these. What a grace! I'm out of words. Its so nice to see your lovely Mum, too, now I feel I know you a little better:) The family jewelry is so fab. Love it.&nbsp;</p> <p>I think this is a dress that works really well both with and without tights. The sheer black tights are lovely with the shoes, but the bare look is also fab. I think for opera, the tights are the &nbsp;better choice. It just seems a bit more formal and dressed up to me. I think you are showing your fashion muscles in this series of outfits, from refined lady to gorgeous fashionista to&nbsp;refined rock chic. I adore the culottes with the booties, a daring look I think. I'm taking notes here. I don' think I can pick a favorite because all three outfits are perfect for the occasion and just gorgeous.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1351027 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 12:17:01 +0000 Windchime 1351027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfection! You look amazing in your black dress, and I absolutely love your duster--such understated elegance! Wonderful pic of you and your Mother, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1351026 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 12:15:49 +0000 Neel 1351026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunner outfits!!

Fun picture if you and your mum ^_^ love the pretty necklace too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1351022 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 12:06:30 +0000 Anonymous 1351022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350861 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 04:00:04 +0000 Adelfa 1350861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is the cutest picture ever of you and your mom!

I love everything you are wearing Denise, but am taking special note of your black culottes outfit. Wow to that. Love the mother/daughter picture and that you went to the opera together! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350818 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 03:16:23 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1350818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What fun! You look stunning in your opera outfit, Denise. The necklace really sets off the dress so beautifully. The photo of you and your mother is gorgeous. (I love that your opera photos have such apt side captions: "dazzling" and "riveting"!) All the outfits are amazing. And yes, do I recognize a Nordstrom ladies' lounge? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350811 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 03:11:08 +0000 Marley 1350811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise - I can't stand the <i><b>killerness</b></i> of your 2nd outfit! &nbsp;(Probably no surprise, huh?) &nbsp;Also - you look beautiful in the first outfit and it brings back special memories of the day we all met up in Santa Monica!<br />That necklace is stunning - and I think the shoes are just a stroke of genius. &nbsp;I would have never thought of wearing lighter patterned shoes!<br />Love the pic of you and your mother!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350808 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 03:08:11 +0000 ironkurtin 1350808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smashing, both you and your mother. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350789 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 02:48:18 +0000 Suz 1350789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise, you look amazing in every outfit, and it is so much fun to see your city capsule in action. I know you don't get to wear these clothes as often as you might wish. No wonder you miss it when you lack the opportunity.</p> <p>I was smiling at the contradictions -- liking Ingunn's outfits one way and yours the other! I have a feeling those sheer hose were the right thing on the night in question, though I agree with you that in the photos I prefer the outfit without the hose. You and your mother both look beautiful. And what a treat to be able to do this together.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm over the moon about your culottes outfit. It is Just. So. Fab. Love the new kimono duster, too.&nbsp;</p> <p>And white leather jacket! Gah!!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350735 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 02:04:14 +0000 Anonymous 1350735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous! I especially love how you made a classic LBD look so modern.</p> <p>I think I recognize a Nordstrom ladies' room&nbsp;too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350733 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 02:01:37 +0000 Keturah 1350733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You just always look so stunning!! I love your use of color and pattern to jazz up the black dress&nbsp;in your&nbsp;opera outfit. And I have forever adored the 2nd outfit since the first day I saw it on YLF forums. The shopping outfit is just pure sophisticated fun.&nbsp;<br /><div><br /></div><div>Gosh, you're just FAB! :)</p> <p></div><div>xoxoxo</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350720 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 01:43:53 +0000 Anonymous 1350720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise, you look perfectly turned out in all these outfits. My favorite is #1. The dress, jewelry, shoes all work together to make a special outfit. The duster is fab and so versatile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350710 Tue, 09 Sep 2014 01:23:16 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1350710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Traditional. And not. And fab. I love the opera and I long for the city days when I had a season ticket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350621 Mon, 08 Sep 2014 23:57:36 +0000 Janet 1350621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic, all of it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350604 Mon, 08 Sep 2014 23:50:39 +0000 Angie 1350604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, yes.

Especially the culottes. My guess is the Nordie's bathroom. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350590 Mon, 08 Sep 2014 23:38:03 +0000 Deborah 1350590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning outfits!&nbsp; I am with you tho, I prefer the dress and shoe without the black tights:)&nbsp; The duster is just gorgeous and the perfect accompaniment&nbsp;for the culottes.&nbsp; That necklace is just&nbsp;beautiful.&nbsp; Mom looks lovely too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350574 Mon, 08 Sep 2014 23:21:14 +0000 jackiec 1350574@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my word pick me off the floor I can't get over #4. You look gorgeous and so stylish in all of your photos though! Love 'em all. Great duster too. Fab. I am gurgling I love #4 so much.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350569 Mon, 08 Sep 2014 23:17:24 +0000 Aida 1350569@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh how wonderful, you look incredible Denise! I adore your opening night outfit, with the sheer black tights and spotty white pumps adding the perfect light touches. The second outfit is trendy and so cool! Love the last look, that white moto is fabulous. You and your mum are a stunning pair of women. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350557 Mon, 08 Sep 2014 22:58:18 +0000 Anonymous 1350557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You and your Mom are so beautiful. Now we see where you get that great skin! I love the Zara dress and the family jewels. I'll bet the sheer black hose looked better once it got fully dark. Bare legs might have photographed better, but sometimes you just have to go with what feels right at the time. Your other outfits are stellar too; I especially love that white moto. It's divine! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350553 Mon, 08 Sep 2014 22:49:11 +0000 Thistle 1350553@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You and your mom look fabulous together, and you rock those black culottes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---opera-outfits#post-1350543 Mon, 08 Sep 2014 22:39:01 +0000 Caro in Oz 1350543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW!!
