Looking at #1, I see "too much red". Maybe a blazer or a cardigan, as Stevia suggested can help. Or a striped top with larger white stripes and thinner red stripes.<br /> I like to add a very colorful scarf to a neutral outfit. May be you can try this if you want to add more color ? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---so-far-this-week#post-1895223 Thu, 01 Mar 2018 04:41:47 +0000 Jaime 1895223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think wearing a bright color drains your emotional energy because you feel like you have to be on all day. I say wear it under a jacket and see how you feel. Love middle outfit and the peacoat is super duper! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---so-far-this-week#post-1895187 Thu, 01 Mar 2018 02:13:29 +0000 Mainelady 1895187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome to Team Happiness Factor! I think all your pics are great. My fave is #4. It is good that you are paying attention to how colors make you feel. I can understand what you said about not wanting to add much to it. Give a scarf, a simple pendant of a cuff bracelet a try with outfit #1 again and see if the happiness factor lasts longer. Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---so-far-this-week#post-1895158 Thu, 01 Mar 2018 00:07:28 +0000 annagybe 1895158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Angie, the red striped sweater looks great. Hopefully you can figure out a way to wear it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---so-far-this-week#post-1895155 Thu, 01 Mar 2018 00:00:11 +0000 Helena 1895155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*blushing* thanks Angie!

So stylish. I especially love no 2 and 3. Both STUNNING. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---so-far-this-week#post-1894953 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 17:41:16 +0000 Helena 1894953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Mirjana - indeed, never enough stripes! Thx Cardiff girl, Sisi, and Amy!</p> <p>Aurore, I will try the outfit with a scarf.</p> <p>Angie, yes! It's strange. However, I am being cautious about generalizing the issue to the color - since not ALL black feels great, but this particular sweater does, and not ALL color feels blah, but this particular combination does. I suspect part of the issue is that because I experience color in a big way, I then am less inclined to add other details to the outfit - so it could be a lack of completion that's making me feel sloppy. I'll try what you suggest; also thinking white jeans and a jean jacket might be something to try with the red.</p> <p>Marilyn, indeed - although I've discovered that I do like to change things up, my home base will always be simple neutrals :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---so-far-this-week#post-1894894 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 15:57:40 +0000 Marilyn 1894894@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great!&nbsp; I can totally relate to this.&nbsp; Try as I might with colour my happiness rating is always at is highest when I'm wearing pared down neutrals.&nbsp; We are who we are! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---so-far-this-week#post-1894871 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 15:25:25 +0000 Amy Isabella 1894871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous outfits - classic and polished.<br /> My favourite - all three! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---so-far-this-week#post-1894863 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 15:22:18 +0000 Sisi 1894863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fab! I like particularly outfit # 2. The coat looks&nbsp;perfect on you. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---so-far-this-week#post-1894855 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 15:12:31 +0000 Angie 1894855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Classic, polished and fabulous, <b>Helena</b>. Soooo interesting that you feel great wearing black and blah wearing colour.&nbsp;I'm the opposite.&nbsp;</p> <p>Try a tonal scarf with the red tee. That might be the ticket. Same outfit formula as #3.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---so-far-this-week#post-1894816 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 14:04:00 +0000 Aurore 1894816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all three outfits - especially the last one with the top-scarf pattern mix. Do you have a scarf that could be paired with the red top of #1? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---so-far-this-week#post-1894810 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 13:59:15 +0000 Cardiff girl 1894810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely,stripes I love and the pea coat looks very chic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---so-far-this-week#post-1894808 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 13:57:02 +0000 Mirjana 1894808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely, my favorite pattern stripe, never enough stripe? You really look happy, enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---so-far-this-week#post-1894806 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 13:52:13 +0000 Helena 1894806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi there, sharing three outfits from this week and using Mainelady's happiness factor rating to evaluate themes which make me style-happy.</p> <p>1. Red mariniere, skinnies and rainboots. I liked this simple outfit visually and was keen on some bright color. BUT by end of day I felt blah and sloppy. This happens often to me when I wear color. Not giving up on this top though. Perhaps it just needed something. Happiness factor - meh.<br /> 2. Black tneck, skinnies and snake belt. Felt great all day in this. Uber simple but the belt and boots made it feel finished. Happiness factor - high.<br /> 3. Pattern mix stripes and scarf. My no fail navy and white stripes with a scarf to add interest. Feel like I posted this combo recently now that I'm typing, sorry for the repeat! Happiness factor - high. </p> <p>Color simplicity, finishing touches ... These are the common themes? I'll keep doing this and see what emerges. Thanks for looking! </p>
