I can't wait for my black ankle booties to come!!! *cry* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048765 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 04:12:05 +0000 MsLuna 1048765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this outfit, lyn! I actually find the red stripe elongating on your figure! I also like the patterns on the sides. Very visually interesting. Love the colour combinations and accessorization as well.</p> <p>Like the others say, I think the brown boots may be throwing off your colour scheme. I think black, less chunky boots might work better... Or maybe ankle booties with black tights? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048757 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 04:02:00 +0000 Adelfa 1048757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote belt and necklace. &nbsp;It's not as though you don't look adorable, though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048664 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 02:15:02 +0000 lyn* 1048664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks again, ladies for your great suggestions!</p> <p>It seems like I need to buy a leather belt that isn't brown! All of mine are brown :3</p> <p>I took a look around, but couldn't find the pic - I think Anthropologie mixed this dress up with a cream thick long cardigan with a brown belt. Will try something like that next time </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048646 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 02:02:51 +0000 Beth Ann 1048646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>While I'm in favor of reducing the color palette, I like the ladylike silhouette mixed with the playful elements.&nbsp; What about a shorter necklace? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048589 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 01:30:38 +0000 CocoLion 1048589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What's not to love about this Lyn, I think you look pretty, ladylike, refined and with a sense of humor. &nbsp;And that is who you are. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048577 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 01:21:44 +0000 kellygirl 1048577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's just there's a lot of color going on. Maybe you could swap the belt and boots for a darker color. You still look cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048574 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 01:18:29 +0000 Amy 1048574@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The other ladies gave you plenty food for thought. I wanted to chime on to say I like the dress a lot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048560 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 00:51:25 +0000 deb 1048560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe the color of the cardi is a little too greyed for the dress. I do not munk the boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048533 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 00:10:51 +0000 pil 1048533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I quite like this as is, but what about a shoe rather than boot? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048530 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 00:05:53 +0000 Kristin L 1048530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think if something is a little off, it's what Ceit pointed out. But &nbsp;I think it still looks lovely.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048469 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 22:05:59 +0000 K. Period. 1048469@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it is lovely, so not a miss. &nbsp;If I were to mix it up, I would swap out the long cardi for a little cropped jacket. &nbsp;I think that extra bit of structure would be nice with the shape of the dress. &nbsp;I would also take off the belt.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048460 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 21:41:09 +0000 Dottie 1048460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>While the red vertical stripe is a "little" distracting, I really like the whole outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048435 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 21:10:49 +0000 lyn* 1048435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies, I did initially try with different necklaces, and I didn't like any of them, didn't like it without either ...</p> <p>I think there's just too many colours for my own liking - I also don't like grey tights which I dont' think work with the boots (maybe the warm/cold contrast Ceit mentioned).</p> <p>Hmm, well, I did survive my day though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048295 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 17:02:52 +0000 kkards 1048295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i agree with IK and ceit, i would look to see it black instead of brown </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048200 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 15:17:13 +0000 Sara L. 1048200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the necklace should go or be shorter (on your skin, not the dress).&nbsp; There's already a lot going on up top with the belt, stripe and cardigan.&nbsp; Your waist looks teeny-tiny in this outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048195 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 15:09:19 +0000 Anonymous 1048195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Overall is sweet. My first thought is the belt and boots are fighting a bit with the red and grey. The grey reads cool, and the belt and boots are warm.</p> <p>I love the print on the dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048191 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 15:06:14 +0000 ironkurtin 1048191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I personally think it's the belt and boots, not sure brown is best here. &nbsp;But the overall outfit is sweet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048189 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 15:04:22 +0000 Tricia 1048189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Actually, I think this is adorable! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048188 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 15:03:32 +0000 Thistle 1048188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks lovely to me!&nbsp; I wonder perhaps if the cardi was the same color as the tights&nbsp; and booties? Or perhaps if the belt were the same shade as the stripe? I think that is probably more likely the culprit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-109---not-quite-my-favorite-think-ive-missed-slightly#post-1048179 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 14:54:01 +0000 lyn* 1048179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm. I am not quite happy with his outfit, although I am not 100% sure why. </p> <p>Maybe too much going on? Maybe because of the red stripe in front? I love all of the individual pieces, but I hope there would be suggestions from you lovely ladies about why this doesn't work?</p> <p>I will ponder this today :3 Thanks! </p> <ul> <li>Cardigan, Necklace: Ricki's</li> <li>Dress: Anthropologie</li> <li>Belt: Vintage Burberry</li> <li>Earrings: KMart?</li> <li>Watch: Fossil</li> <li>Boots: Doc Martens</li> </ul>
