Love #1. Leather makes it look classy and edgy at the same time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-507633 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 23:41:07 +0000 Aida 507633@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE both blouses, those prints are just fabulous! I really like the leather skirt and loafers with #1. The teal is pretty with #2, but I'm with the others who think the jacket has gotten a wee bit too big for you; I really like the gray pumps here (and I know you could've worn teal ). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-507417 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 20:35:52 +0000 kellygirl 507417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the leather skirt ensemble, MaryK!

Pairing those pieces with the pencil skirt is so fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-507228 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 17:33:45 +0000 MsMary 507228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sona!

I hope you will wear it in New York. Hey, do we get to see your travel capsule? </p> <p>I love the teal jacket, too. I'm not sure it's too big at all. It's supposed to fit wide, right? I wonder if Modgrl might be right about the sleeves, though? I don't actually know how long the sleeves on this sort of jacket are supposed to be. Might be worth investigating. </p> <p>Anyway, it is a great colour for you, O Queen of Colour! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-507209 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 17:18:06 +0000 Sona 507209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I attempted a MaryK copycat this am. sorry for poor lighting pic. my nordstrom pb blouse arrived yesterday and I paired it with ann taylor slim fit pants, booties and a teal blazer since I'm not much for changing out my bags!</p> <p>I am loving your look #1 even more, need to find a grey skirt! and a leather skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-507190 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 16:50:21 +0000 Jjsloane 507190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are so awesome. I love #1 (admit the leather looks slightly big, but you don't want it too tight either) #2 is simply TEALighful. Great color for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-507183 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 16:43:49 +0000 Anonymous 507183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are gorgeous looks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-507172 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 16:30:11 +0000 MsMaven 507172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful blouse in #2. </p> <p>Mary, is there any color you don't look gorgeous wearing? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-507162 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 16:17:49 +0000 Jonesy 507162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, MaryK, what a fun time you'll have with your corporal!

"Mega sophisticated with a dash of naughty" was EXACTLY what I was going for! LOL</p> <p>Life is very good, TYVM! I love that Halogen pussy bow blouse so much I ordered it yesterday in white. And I'm all excited because I'm heading out for NYC next month for a week's vacation with my LANCE CORPORAL!

I like the jacket in outfit #2 but maybe it would go better with a blouse with shorter sleeves? The rest of the outfit looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-507042 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:10:26 +0000 kimlee 507042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Two more goregous looks from you, MaryK. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-507041 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:08:44 +0000 modgrl 507041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can you roll up the sleeves of the trapeze jacket? they look long for what they're supposed to be. I want to steal both of your blouses. They are so gorgeous!! Fab kate spade outfit!!<br /> x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-506990 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 08:42:06 +0000 Katiepea 506990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! I love your first look. You look like you are about to whip out your cheque-book and donate enough money for the theatre to become known as the "Mary K". (As in "Daaaahling, did you catch that show at the Mary K last night? It was FAB-u-LOUS!")</p> <p>I can't comment on the fit of the jacket, but I do have to say I love the colour! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-506959 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 05:46:56 +0000 jayne 506959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mary k, I just love your style...you look fantastic in both...but I agree, jacket seems too big even in look 3, although not as obvious..it its the loose arms and shoulders I am seeing...But you are allowed to hide your waist, we don't have to be hourglass figures all the time. since you are so slender the square blue coat just emphasizes your petite lower half. </p> <p>The first look just makes me want to go shopping for everything and copy you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-506947 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 05:31:17 +0000 Refugee 506947@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the first outfit. (I do love me a leather skirt) The second outfit something about this sleeve peeking below the bracelet length sleeve of the jacket is not quite doing it for me. Maybe it's just me? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-506943 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 05:25:54 +0000 Misia 506943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You just got tooooo...tiny, lol, I agree blue jacket and black skirt from #1 looks kind of big to my eye. I Love how the gray skirt fits you much better! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-506937 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 05:17:12 +0000 MsMary 506937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was wondering that myself. It's a trapeze jacket so it's supposed to be waist-surrendering, but I wonder whether it's too big in the shoulders at this point. I don't know. I think it still looks fine buttoned.</p> <p>Here's a recent one (funny -- combination of the two outfits above!) where I don't think it necessarily looks too big. Hmmm... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-506934 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 05:14:34 +0000 goldenpig 506934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooohhh, outfit #1 is to die for! I really like that jacket and the black leather skirt. Fabulous Kate Spade jacket! I think I like it most in the first and third version--maybe because I prefer to see your pretty waist! I l really like that blouse in #2 also! The teal color is great on you but the jacket looks a little big on you. Maybe the way you're standing? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-19-and-110-kate-and-leather-and-blue-and-gray#post-506931 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 05:06:32 +0000 MsMary 506931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1. Yesterday we had a donor event after work at the local theatre so I wanted to look reasonably prosperous and fashion-conscious. I ended up being really happy with this look -- I loved the black-and-white silk blouse with the black-and-white KS jacket!</p> <p>Black and white jacket: Kate Spade<br /> Black and white silk blouse: consignment<br /> Black leather pencil skirt: Halogen<br /> Black platform loafers: Adrienne Vittadini<br /> Black tote with gold studs: Coach<br /> Ginormous pearl earrings: Drugstore.com<br /> Black fishnets: Oroblu</p> <p>2. Today I trotted out one of my first consignment purchases -- the teal trapeze jacket from Talbots. I love it with the new watercolor print blouse from Nordstrom!</p> <p>Teal jacket: Talbots via consignment<br /> Gray pencil skirt: Halogen<br /> Gray/blue/pink watercolor print silk pussybow blouse: Halogen<br /> Gray patent pumps: Madden Girl<br /> Blue tote: B Makowsky</p> <p>Thanks for looking. I always appreciate your comments! </p>
