But (and I'm being very picky here, I know) there is something about the shape of the skirt that doesn't look right to me - like its kind of boxy or something??? It just doesn't look as good on you IMO as the Halogen skirts do - maybe its the angle of the camera, I'm not sure. At first I thought it was the length that was off - but I don't think that's it - I think it has something to do with the width of the skirt at the bottom - it looks a little too wide to me. However, I realize that I'm the only one that is seeing it - so good chance that I'm wrong! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756953 Thu, 25 Oct 2012 05:17:25 +0000 Scarlet 756953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The full on outfit in 2 is just crazy good.

Definitely leave it as-is, the length is perfect. Anna, I promise this jacket is beautiful in person! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756673 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 23:54:21 +0000 columbine(erin) 756673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow.

So fun!<br /> Is the blazer a knit? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756547 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 21:20:51 +0000 Caro in Oz 756547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie's so right about the white - I think the belt makes everything sing - you have a great look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756535 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 21:00:44 +0000 annagybe 756535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the color and pattern combination. But, I'm really on the fence on the texture of teh jacket, hoping it looks more fab IRL. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756534 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 20:58:06 +0000 MsMary 756534@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, ladies! </p> <p>Missvee, I would have normally worn a black belt but Angie has convinced me that there's nothing to make a red-and-black outfit sing like a pop of white!</p> <p>And here's something funny: I had lunch with my usual (male) lunch buddies today and one of them in particular just couldn't get over my pattern-mixed outfit! He kept saying it was "really something!" And also that it was "very MaryK." Both of which I chose to take as compliments! LOL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756472 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 19:56:10 +0000 missvee 756472@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the length of the skirt on you. I would probably do a black belt, or maybe citron, but I like it very much the way you've styled it here too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756282 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 16:48:07 +0000 catgirl 756282@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, and NO, don't shorten the skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756276 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 16:43:00 +0000 Transcona Shannon 756276@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would SOOOOO wear this! Love the houndstooth skirt with the Doc Saras - a match made in heaven in my eyes. Please don't shorten the skirt. I love the length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756274 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 16:41:30 +0000 Asingh 756274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What great pattern mixing. And that skirt is perfect, the length doesn't need to be shortened in my opinion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756273 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 16:39:54 +0000 catgirl 756273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Rae - my first thought was "Where's the matchy blazer?" So THAT"s the fab jacket - it's not itchy? It looks great and I know how glorious you look in real life, having seen these items! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756203 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 15:25:21 +0000 milehighstyle (Linda) 756203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't decide - love it both with and without the belt. And that bag is so great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756201 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 15:22:19 +0000 rae 756201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the black-n-white-n-red-all-over look! The length looks good to me, but I am shocked - shocked! - that you didn't wear the matching blazer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756198 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 15:19:46 +0000 Janet 756198@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it. Of course, you had me at houndstooth and burgundy. I've never tried my b&amp;w Docs with a skirt or dress but I like it on you, so I may have to experiment! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756186 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 15:07:27 +0000 Anonymous 756186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The skirt length looks perfect as it is. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756182 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 15:04:21 +0000 Anonymous 756182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! No belt seems a good call to me. I think you posted the third photo while I posted. I really like the white belt too. It looks more finished. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1024-houndstooth-and-burgundy-shoptoberfest-loot#post-756180 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 15:00:21 +0000 MsMary 756180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We're going to have one more fall-like day before the temps go back up to the high 80s, so I am taking advantage of the cool weather to debut a couple of Shoptoberfest finds -- the skirt and jacket are from Marshall's in Orange County!</p> <p>Houndstooth skirt: Ellen Tracy<br /> Burgundy wool jacket: Carole LIttle<br /> Black bird print blouse: Comptoir Des Cotonniers<br /> Black and white oxfords: Doc Marten<br /> Red ombre bag: consignment</p> <p>What do you think? I know it's a whole lotta look but I am okay with that. Do you think I should shorten the skirt a smidge? And I left off a belt to show the contrasting waistband on the skirt -- was that the right call?</p> <p>ETA: hiked up the skirt a tiny bit and added a belt. Better? Worse? </p>
