I actually think that it's one of those colors that looks good on everyone! (If this shade of emerald doesn't work, then how about something grassier?) </p> <p>Kirti, you should definitely try some emerald sometime now that you have red hair. It's a match made in heaven. =) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-041212---leprechaun-dress#post-595030 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 06:02:17 +0000 Kirti 595030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome! Green makes you glow </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-041212---leprechaun-dress#post-594985 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 04:29:48 +0000 ManidipaM 594985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this slightly retro-romantic look, Diana! (And much admiration for rocking green, which I love to hate for making me look jaundiced. You, on the other hand, look positively peachy perfect in green!) Between the waistcoat and toning boots and tights, you look very sleek and sophisticated in this outfit. Bet you had a spring in your step wearing this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-041212---leprechaun-dress#post-594920 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 02:41:15 +0000 Anonymous 594920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Finally the peeps in the lab mellow out! I'm glad you aren't getting razzed anymore for being so fab. Super color and fab with the vest. Sorry about the trashed tights...they served there purpose today. You look great Diana! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-041212---leprechaun-dress#post-594917 Fri, 13 Apr 2012 02:32:19 +0000 Sara L. 594917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a pretty color! I assume from what you are saying that it's even a prettier color in real life. I like the patterned tights and waistcoat with the dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-041212---leprechaun-dress#post-594806 Thu, 12 Apr 2012 23:33:31 +0000 Ana 594806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is so pretty, Diana! I love the waistcoat and the emerald green is beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-041212---leprechaun-dress#post-594802 Thu, 12 Apr 2012 23:20:19 +0000 MsMary 594802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE!!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-041212---leprechaun-dress#post-594798 Thu, 12 Apr 2012 23:16:05 +0000 citygirldc 594798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely green dress and the waist coat is sol flattering on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-041212---leprechaun-dress#post-594769 Thu, 12 Apr 2012 22:42:47 +0000 Diana 594769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, I tried all the white balance settings including the manual one, and all the random preset color settings, increasing and decreasing exposure, and they all came out turquoise. The other colors in the photo are fine, it just washes out and blue-ifies all the greens except for the yellowish ones. I suspect the solution is going to be: get an SLR - but it's not really in the budget right now. In the meantime, I'll just have to make do w/ photoshop. </p> <p>btw, here is the waistcoat worn over cap sleeves. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-041212---leprechaun-dress#post-594758 Thu, 12 Apr 2012 22:30:49 +0000 rae 594758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, all these years, I thought waistcoats could only be worn with long sleeves.... and here you are, blowing my mind! Super col outfit, Diana! </p> <p>Can you adjust the white balance on your camera? It's usually a function in the settings menu somewhere. You tell it to set white balance, then shoot something white. When you go back to the regular shooting mode, the colors *should* be more true to life. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-041212---leprechaun-dress#post-594750 Thu, 12 Apr 2012 22:23:23 +0000 Transcona Shannon 594750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So pretty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-041212---leprechaun-dress#post-594747 Thu, 12 Apr 2012 22:20:45 +0000 Meredith1953 594747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it! The vest and the boots make it extra cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-041212---leprechaun-dress#post-594733 Thu, 12 Apr 2012 21:51:42 +0000 Diana 594733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haven't worn my leprechaun dress for a while, so I decided to pair it with my fitted waistcoat and moto boots today. Tights are rose-printed but it's hard to see here (also super uncomfortable - see my earlier post about tights - so they are now in the trash). The dress is a true, super-saturated emerald green; I don't think this comes through in the photo at all even after a lot of photo editing. (Incidentally, does anyone know how to make my camera (a canon digital elph) like green? This came out of the camera turquoise, and it makes all my teals look like blue).</p> <p>PS-Nobody called me a leprechaun this time around. I think after 3 years everyone at lab is immune to my crazy outfits!</p> <p>Wearing: Anthro dress, F21 waistcoat, Dolce Vita boots, awful tights, and Allison Scott bag. </p>
