I like the edge the boots bring to the classic pencil skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-22-not-sure-what-to-call-this-style#post-529295 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 20:59:41 +0000 anchie 529295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You always look very ladylike to me. More Vivien Leigh than Marilyn Monroe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-22-not-sure-what-to-call-this-style#post-529113 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 18:58:16 +0000 goldenpig 529113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh Zap, I must see your version of this outfit!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-22-not-sure-what-to-call-this-style#post-529107 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 18:55:29 +0000 Anonymous 529107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the boots and the jacket. What a great outfit!</p> <p>Honestly, I get really confused with all of this style talk. I honestly think it is not the clothes what defines the style of the wearer, but rather the other way around, especially when it comes to more classic pieces. This is why an item of clothing is not going to look the same on you than on me. I am not as eloquent as most of you beautiful ladies, but I will try to illustrate with an example.</p> <p>For instance, I have that very same pencil skirt, similar boots, jacket and ruffled top. If I was to replicate your outfit, I can guarantee you that the outfit is going to look much more different on me than on you. You will see a big hint of bombshell but not a hint of UWP. I think I have a much more classic style persona. </p> <p>This is why Angie's pencil skirt post (on the bombshell definition), resonated with me. As you can see, Angie transmits an extremely well honed and refined style personality thru her clothes. She always looks elegant, polished and refined, irrelevant of what she wears.</p> <p>Going back to your post, if I analyze the clothes on their own, all I can see, since your closet is quite new, is classic pieces adjusted for current trends: i.e. colored pencil skirts, ruffles, lace up boots etc. It is your personality what transforms the clothing into a true style. If you feel like bombshell, run with it and explore it fully! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-22-not-sure-what-to-call-this-style#post-529054 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 18:06:24 +0000 catgirl 529054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice switch-up! I like UWP because it has so many possible directions. I guess all styles do... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-22-not-sure-what-to-call-this-style#post-529023 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 17:47:52 +0000 rae 529023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Urban Warrior Bombshell!! </p> <p>Replacing the romantic/pretty/flowy Princess persona, with the more retro/hourglass Bombshell personality.</p> <p>Can you see me grinning from here?

High five! Bombshell UWP is EXACTLY what I was going for but I didn't know if that also was an oxymoron like Demure Bombshell! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-22-not-sure-what-to-call-this-style#post-528982 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 17:07:31 +0000 Elly 528982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also--- look at that waist!

If it helps, I have remained unpegged as well. I know what I like, and now that I've taken the time to think through purchases better, a lot of it is working together, unlike in the past. That's good enough for me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-22-not-sure-what-to-call-this-style#post-528971 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 16:59:46 +0000 goldenpig 528971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK I don't know what to call this style anymore, but it feels very me and I'm having fun! :)</p> <p>Classiques Entier teal and black ruffled and ruched patterned sleeveless top<br /> Halogen red pencil skirt<br /> Tahari black leather jacket<br /> White House Black Market black pendant necklace<br /> Kate Spade grey croc tote<br /> Frye Melissa Tall Lace black boots (laces tucked for you, Angie!) </p>
