Very lovely and would look great with your hair!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge/page/2#post-1514031 Thu, 02 Jul 2015 11:16:12 +0000 Summer 1514031@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it as is, Deborah, but you would probably be more comfortable with just the scarf and either a white or black top. &nbsp;<br />Looking forward to seeing more outfits with coloured booties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge/page/2#post-1514022 Thu, 02 Jul 2015 10:54:44 +0000 Rubygirl 1514022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You nailed the red! Love Love Love </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge/page/2#post-1514018 Thu, 02 Jul 2015 10:14:31 +0000 Eirlys 1514018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the outfit . Agree with Joy: lose the scarf or have another very thin, long one in black with white polka dots, possibly? </p> <p>Also love your idea of wearing boots in a colour other than black. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1514016 Thu, 02 Jul 2015 10:06:11 +0000 Style Fan 1514016@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the outfit.&nbsp; It did take some time for my eye to adjust to seeing you in something other than black (just kidding :)).&nbsp; How could you look sloppy?&nbsp; Your bootie collection is to die for. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513965 Thu, 02 Jul 2015 04:23:44 +0000 Anonymous 1513965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the outfit as is but my thought is that you would like it better without the scarf. I wonder if that is what is making you think it looks messy. The deep red of the top and booties is a beautiful addition. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513961 Thu, 02 Jul 2015 04:08:12 +0000 Echo 1513961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love this outfit. Red seems to be a great accent to drapey black - which always looks great on its own, but the red gives it a whole different feel. I like the booties quite a lot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513956 Thu, 02 Jul 2015 03:44:12 +0000 Brooklyn 1513956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks good but I think a little less red would be better. The scarf and shoes are so amazing and eye catching that the top kind of competes with them I think. Just plain a black or white top&nbsp;would be worth a try. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513944 Thu, 02 Jul 2015 03:12:57 +0000 Anonymous 1513944@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that it would be better with a black top, but wow, what a combo of scarf and shoes!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513906 Thu, 02 Jul 2015 02:11:50 +0000 Beth Ann 1513906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh.... I love a good challenge!&nbsp; I like the movement of the outfit as is, and the exuberance of red always makes me happy.&nbsp; I could also see, with your success with minimalist and slightly avant garde looks, a look that is all black, except for the booties and one other small piece.&nbsp; I could see the blue booties with grey, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513903 Thu, 02 Jul 2015 02:08:20 +0000 Carla 1513903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like as is! Not sloppy at all. Good challenge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513900 Thu, 02 Jul 2015 02:04:44 +0000 Diana 1513900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! Red shoes are the best! I often actually wear mine (I have several pairs...) with no other red in my outfit. It's a neutral! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513898 Thu, 02 Jul 2015 01:45:19 +0000 MsMaven 1513898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Black and red are one of my favorite combinations, but it has to be done right or it can look very 80s or worse. You may not be overly thrilled with this combo, but I love it. Very well done. I think you should keep it in your repertoire. I look forward to seeing more combinations with the red booties.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513894 Thu, 02 Jul 2015 01:33:43 +0000 Sveta 1513894@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually like it with the red top as well: keeping the things monochrome between the top and the scarf helps to streamline the look. But by all means try with a white or black top next time it would be fab too.<br />I like your challenge- next let's see the cobalt booties in action! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513892 Thu, 02 Jul 2015 01:22:21 +0000 Peri 1513892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow oh wow, I love this!! Sloppy, are you kidding me? I'd wear it in a heartbeat. In fact, yeah, it's way too much on you...send me that scarf asap! :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513781 Wed, 01 Jul 2015 20:45:33 +0000 Aida 1513781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A great challenge idea for you, Deborah! You do have some really fun non-black booties (I'm particularly fond of the snakeskin-ish pair, yum!). I like the outfit, though yes for you I agree that keeping the scarf and swapping the top to white OR keeping the top and swapping the scarf to white would feel more "you". You could also work this basic outfit concept with those b/w spotty booties. As an aside, that top is gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513635 Wed, 01 Jul 2015 14:04:40 +0000 Karin L H 1513635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love those boots! Such a wonderful colour. The whole outfit looks fine to me, but it'd be fun to see a variation that you suggested, for comparison! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513634 Wed, 01 Jul 2015 13:56:06 +0000 ma 1513634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a lovely scarf! Honestly I think you are right about the white vs red top but you look fab regardless </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513632 Wed, 01 Jul 2015 13:54:43 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1513632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the outfit looks great and very well thought out Deborah. &nbsp;I had a pair of red Tsubo booties and like you, found them hard to work into outfits. &nbsp;I finally got them dyed cognac brown thinking I would wear them more - but don't. &nbsp;*sigh*</p> <p>Not sure why we have trouble with non-black shoes/booties but I applaud your effort to overcome. &nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513616 Wed, 01 Jul 2015 13:35:34 +0000 jackiec 1513616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good for you for setting a challenge! Totally works, you look fab as always!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513609 Wed, 01 Jul 2015 13:13:24 +0000 Jaime 1513609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks good to me - looking forward to the speckled pair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513590 Wed, 01 Jul 2015 12:40:21 +0000 Angie 1513590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>An excellent challenge, and you look fab. Super Hero Debs is divine.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513572 Wed, 01 Jul 2015 11:36:40 +0000 Aquamarine 1513572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE THIS! Not too much to my eye, at all. Maybe you are just not used to the extra color? Really, you look stunning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513555 Wed, 01 Jul 2015 10:54:21 +0000 lyn67 1513555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not overdone, I like it as it is!!!! Love to see you in (your ways of) using colors, Deb! Very stylish combo, and I love your draping sweaters! Have I missed this one entering your mainly blacks wardrobe?:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513549 Wed, 01 Jul 2015 10:36:07 +0000 Maneera 1513549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the red boots as well as other other ones. The laced booties are my favourite. </p> <p>I think all you need to do is swap the top to white/black and keep the scarf, it's a great look otherwise (for someone who likes to wear color). I would wear the look just as it is! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513545 Wed, 01 Jul 2015 10:30:44 +0000 Anonymous 1513545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I think it does work well as it is and I think will look great with a black top too. I love your ides to try the boots with the cocoon dress as well.</p> <p>Your other boots that you're planning to style look great! Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513541 Wed, 01 Jul 2015 10:19:22 +0000 Cococat 1513541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it Deborah. I wonder how it would go with a black top and just the scarf to bring in the red. </p> <p>I would love to see them with your cocoon dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-personal-challenge#post-1513535 Wed, 01 Jul 2015 09:45:41 +0000 Deborah 1513535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the votes of confidence ladies. &nbsp;I think this just looked to sloppy to my eye. &nbsp;I do love the boots so next time I might just try to streamline the rest of the look. &nbsp;I did think the boots with bare legs (or nude hose) and my black long sleeve cocoon dress might work, with or without the scarf. &nbsp;I love a challenge. </p>
