I prefer in general not to have the top half all light and the bottom all dark, especially if wearing two colours only or an even no of pieces. Now I write this I sound a little strange. On me I would wear light shoes with the two white pieces or add more dark at the top. </p> <p>Thanks for this, it has just made me realise this preference for odd numbers....</p> <p>I do like it a lot as it is too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes/page/2#post-1343971 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 18:22:27 +0000 lyn67 1343971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One of my favorite of yours up to date, I think. Monochromatic (whte with contrast)irregular juxtaposition, crochette style(chuncky looking, not flimsy!)&nbsp;lace, jeans and denim jacket, &nbsp;great fit and a bit of edge to the shoes,&nbsp; I love them all. Very well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes/page/2#post-1343904 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 15:42:44 +0000 Parsley 1343904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I suggested trying lighter footwear because sometimes I think they can tie in the upper part of the outfit with the lower part, instead of having an all white half and an all dark half. I'd have to see it though, to know whether I'd really like it better or not. I'm never good at <u>imagining</u> how shoes will look; I usually end up trying on several pairs in order to decide what works&nbsp;with an outfit. So, feel free to take my suggestion with a grain of salt! :-)</p> <p>On the other hand, continuing the line of the pants works nicely here, too, if it weren't for the fact the the shoes were hurting your feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes/page/2#post-1343894 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 15:27:38 +0000 gryffin 1343894@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>IK- I echo Deborah.&nbsp; I think you are a very gifted stylist.&nbsp; I really love the whole outfit, in fact I would happily steal the whole thing intact (sans blisters!!)&nbsp; The lace top is so perfect with the white topper and the necklaces are perfect scale length and feel.&nbsp; I love the juxtaposition of texture, graphic, tough/romantic.&nbsp; I do like the dark footwear, as you do with the pants, I think it grounds the look.&nbsp; Totally gorgeous, edgy, flattering, interesting, refined but unfussy.&nbsp; Truly an inspiration!!&nbsp; Thanks!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1343893 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 15:26:38 +0000 viva 1343893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the necklace -- and thanks for the reminder to double up a long necklace. (said Captain Obvious.) </p> <p>I'm a fan of the dark footwear with this outfit, BTW. Hoping the blister problem is very short-lived. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1343887 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 15:19:50 +0000 ironkurtin 1343887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the nice words, ladies!</p> <p>Curious as to why so many of you would wear lighter footwear; I like the way the dark shoes continue the line of the dark pants.&nbsp; To me it looks more unified than wearing lighter shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1343783 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 12:01:29 +0000 krishnidoux 1343783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>IK, I like your idea of offsetting an otherwise darling ensemble with spiked necklaces! Very clever!<br />This outfit is very appealing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1343746 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 09:18:24 +0000 Deb 1343746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice indeed. I'd wear this in a heartbeat.....in fact I wear something similar with a lighter coloured shoe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1343744 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 08:49:01 +0000 Sal 1343744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool combo. I like it as is but here are a couple of ideas if you wanted to rewear it differently. A navy cami under the lace... Would that work? How about light or bright sandals or shoes?</p> <p>I think the jeans are a great fit on you and this look has some 1980s features that are appealing to me. I had some similar sandals in 1985 that I wore with a lacy shirt in a Madonna copycat. Yours is much much cooler than my version. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1343210 Sat, 30 Aug 2014 14:06:38 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1343210@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I <u>really</u> love this - so much,&nbsp;that I am adding it to my favorites for a future copycat. &nbsp; Have you ever seen the blog <a rel="nofollow" href="http://taxonomyofmywardrobe.blogspot.com/">The Taxonomy of my Wardrobe</a>? &nbsp; &nbsp;It's one of my favorite style blogs. &nbsp; Your outfit looks like something&nbsp;Veshoevius would wear on one of her&nbsp;trips to Spain. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1343194 Sat, 30 Aug 2014 13:33:03 +0000 Karie 1343194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit! I would try lighter colored footwear. I love the lace top with the jacket - you have given me inspiration to try this with a lace top that I love but never wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1343171 Sat, 30 Aug 2014 11:41:27 +0000 Anonymous 1343171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous outfit! Love the lace with the jacket and jeans and I really love the shoes. Hopefully they will break in and feel better. I am inspired to copy (if you don't mind)!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1343165 Sat, 30 Aug 2014 11:25:46 +0000 Suz 1343165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous outfit -- I love everything except the fact that your feet hurt. I am commiserating -- I gave myself a big blister the other night walking far in a pair of shoes that needed body glide (and forgot that body glide...).&nbsp;</p> <p>I love the lace with the denim. Texturally rich.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1343120 Sat, 30 Aug 2014 06:32:16 +0000 Deborah 1343120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you are a gifted stylist IK. &nbsp;The lace top is a surprise (to me) and never would i think of that is 'your style'&nbsp;<b>but it is! &nbsp;</b>Really nice juxtapositions in this outfit and it's totally you. &nbsp;The tough jewellery against the soft feminine top works so well. &nbsp;I think you look fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1343117 Sat, 30 Aug 2014 06:27:11 +0000 CocoLion 1343117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You missed nothing. &nbsp;It's a great outfit. &nbsp;Love the addition of the layered necklaces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1343113 Sat, 30 Aug 2014 05:52:03 +0000 Alana in Canada 1343113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting. Edgy. I really like this. I *get* this juxtaposition. And I love the high degree of harmony in the repetition of the white.<br />Sorry about your blisters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1343100 Sat, 30 Aug 2014 05:07:37 +0000 JAileen 1343100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very cute outfit! I'm sorry you got blisters, but I love the sandals, also the jacket, top and pants. I would wear this outfit in a New York minute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1342997 Sat, 30 Aug 2014 02:07:24 +0000 Debbie 1342997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this outfit! Those shoes are are really cute. Would moleskin help?<br /> The necklace is cool. Hope your feet aren't too bad tonight. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1342945 Sat, 30 Aug 2014 00:48:10 +0000 MovingFashionForward 1342945@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Me too -- absolutely fabulous, IK.

I think it is one of my all time favorites you have posted. I like all of the juxtaposition, both in textures and in colors.</p> <p>Sad about the shoes causing blisters. I can't remember what else is in your closet, but perhaps some pointy toed flats for more juxtaposition? Or maybe ones with studs on them? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1342896 Fri, 29 Aug 2014 23:42:12 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1342896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for the close up of eh the necklace!

I love how fitted the pants are, and how the top provides both structure and looseness. It's beautifully draped on your frame. And love those shoes. This is a total keeper. Absolutely love. Wish I could see the thorn necklace, tho. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1342810 Fri, 29 Aug 2014 21:48:10 +0000 claracluck 1342810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>so love that lace top, great outfit IK. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1342806 Fri, 29 Aug 2014 21:45:24 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1342806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, wow. I agree with Angie - my favorite outfit of yours! I love the proportions and the soft/tough combo which make the whole thing balanced. And the different textures with the white... Wow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1342766 Fri, 29 Aug 2014 21:01:38 +0000 shedev 1342766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it Ik, I hope the blisters aren't too bad. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-8-29-lace-and-leather-and-spikes#post-1342740 Fri, 29 Aug 2014 20:23:00 +0000 Angie 1342740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is my favourite outfit you have posted, IK.&nbsp;Great proportions.
