I really like it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-84-813-shadow-style-goth-punk#post-1331217 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 01:00:53 +0000 E 1331217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't see why you can't have 2 style personas, depending on your mood. They're both recognisably you with the rich fabrics, texture mixing, more body con silhouettes (I don't mean body con in the sense of tight, just in the sense of flattering your figure beautifully), and matchy matchy elements. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-84-813-shadow-style-goth-punk#post-1330804 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 17:37:23 +0000 Suz 1330804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fantastic top on you, Natalie.

Thanks...that's the first I heard it. I've always wondered about those posts where people say things like "that just doesn't look like your style". Why aren't we allowed to have some variety in our styles. Now I've got a word for it...shadow styles.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-84-813-shadow-style-goth-punk#post-1330743 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 16:19:35 +0000 Elizabeth P 1330743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are great outfits GP.&nbsp; Can't answer the style persona question... maybe it's okay to have two? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-84-813-shadow-style-goth-punk#post-1330735 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 15:51:08 +0000 Momo 1330735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love these outfits!

You wear black very well. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-84-813-shadow-style-goth-punk#post-1330589 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 12:49:33 +0000 Anonymous 1330589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these, especially the first! I have the same skirt, so I always like seeing what other people wear with it, and I'm all about wearing black in summer.</p> <p>Not sure about style monikers, but I think your outfits still have a ladylike feel even when you're wearing something darker and edgier. Something to do with the coordination and the careful attention to accessories, maybe? So I think your style seems cohesive even though there's a broad range in there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-84-813-shadow-style-goth-punk#post-1330572 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 11:54:20 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1330572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this so much, I just bookmarked it so I can copy your skirt outfit! </p> <p>Between you and Suz, you have me considering plaid jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-84-813-shadow-style-goth-punk#post-1330543 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 10:05:31 +0000 Anonymous 1330543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both looks are fab GP! You really own your shadow persona looks, so maybe you should have a bit of a descriptor change. Urban, Gothic Bombshell? Ladylike Urban Goth? If I think of any more I'll pop back.</p> <p>Oh wait, how about Ladylike Punk Princess?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-84-813-shadow-style-goth-punk#post-1330537 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 09:19:30 +0000 fuzzylogic 1330537@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the version with plaid pants-totally hot!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-84-813-shadow-style-goth-punk#post-1330531 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 08:09:05 +0000 goldenpig 1330531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A couple of outfits from my shadow persona, the one with darker, tough/edgy elements. Although someone mentioned in a previous thread that they think my "shadow" style persona is fast becoming my primary style persona! These two outfits shared the same Helmut Lang-ish black zipper top (actually it's from Target!), I just switched out the bottoms and shoes and bracelets. The skirt outfit reminds me a bit of Goth, with the Victorian-ish grey and black lace print skirt, and the plaid pants remind me of punk. I wore these both to work...it may be pushing the envelope of work appropriateness a bit, but I'm trying to do a more grown-up version of Goth/punk. Someone at work said "You look so fall-like today!" It's because it's chilly and foggy in the mornings at my house so I feel like dressing in long-sleeve tops because I'm cold. And I'm on Team Wear so I'm trying to wear all of my new NAS purchases. But then when I get to work it's hot and sunny, so my outfit looks a little out of place. I know black is more associated with winter, but hey if you can wear white in winter, why not black in summer? I did at least push up the sleeves.</p> <p>Is it time for me to start thinking about a new style moniker? Demure bombshell doesn't quite describe the new direction I've been exploring lately. And do you think I have dual style personas? Which one is primary? I feel like I have a very ladylike Kate Spade side with the florals, bright colors, prints, etc. but then also a darker tougher side with the monochrome black and grey, studs, zippers, leather, silver/gunmetal cuffs, etc. It's like I turn into a vampire at night, LOL! Would love to hear what you think of my style persona(s).</p> <p>Thanks for looking and commenting!<br />Target Converse Larissa zip top<br />Karl Lagerfeld watch<br />Vince Camuto midi tube skirt in grey lace print/Munro Abby sandals/Spring St. cuff/silver Michael Kors studded satchel<br />Paige plaid skinny jeans/Mia Nanette black lace up ankle booties/Forever21 gunmetal cuff/black Michael Kors studded satchel </p>
