I usually like how it looks with my shirt cuffs peeking out, adding more color to the outfit, but with both the shirt and jacket sleeves short, it looks off. Mental note! Thanks for pointing that out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298576 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 20:49:13 +0000 Ljubica 298576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All of the looks are beautiful, and I adore dresses - both styles tickle my fancy.<br /> I wish I could wear red like you do - so regally. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298571 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 20:41:11 +0000 Jonesy 298571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the dresses looks, especially the plaid dress/jacket. It's just perfect on you and your accessories are perfect too. I love the "tomboy" looks too! You are rocking that vintage t-shirt :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298508 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 19:26:37 +0000 Scarlet 298508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like these outfits, but especially the plaid dress on you. Do you think the jacket in 1 is maybe a little short in the arms? I am no good at these things, but it seemed that way to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298474 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 19:00:22 +0000 catgirl 298474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae - I love your tomboy-bombshell vibe! The refashioned plaid dress and the 70s outfit are my faves. I wish I had saved my black Tom Petty shirt from back in the day - who knew it would be such a vintage treasure?! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298468 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 18:44:11 +0000 LuAnn 298468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great looks especially the plaid dress and blazer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298404 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 15:46:35 +0000 kellygirl 298404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice!

Actually, I find male uniforms really appealing, for whatever reason: mechanics, boy scouts, military, lumberjacks... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298374 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 14:27:02 +0000 rute 298374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amazing outfits! Loved everyone! You styled that plaid dress so nicely! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298335 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 08:52:02 +0000 CocoLion 298335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your casual styles #2 and #6. No wait, I LOVE your casual styles! You really know how to do shorts, plus you look great in them too.</p> <p>Is that a boy scout shirt you're wearing in #2? I see a flag on the sleeve. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298331 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 08:46:07 +0000 Aunty 298331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>5 is lovely, you look so elegant. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298320 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 07:32:47 +0000 AJ 298320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The plaid dress with the bag and boots...squeee! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298259 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 03:43:32 +0000 Karli 298259@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love all the looks! You look stunning in red!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298256 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 03:37:23 +0000 MsMary 298256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the plaid dress!! And #6 looks just like we used to look back in the day! And all the others are fab, too! I don't think you could be un-fab if you tried! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298254 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 03:35:43 +0000 rae 298254@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my, I don't think I've been referred to as a "bombshell" before -- hm, I quite like it! I'm glad the plaid dress got some love from you all; the black and white plaid makes me very happy.</p> <p>Aida, I'm so excited that you like "That 70s Outfit." I always struggle with my warm-weather looks, so color me stoked. I can't wait to see your take on casual outfits this summer (so I can, ahem, gather some ideas to copy). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298227 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 03:09:59 +0000 Lisa 298227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#4 is my favorite, a tad equestrian vibe to it that I like, and a blazer and a dress, a combination close to my heart. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298203 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 02:11:37 +0000 Debora 298203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, a great week of looks! I especially love your plaid dress. So happy that you were able to make it work for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298200 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 02:01:54 +0000 Aida 298200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your Stephen-Hyde-inspired 70s look! This is where I'm hoping to take my casual looks this summer when it actually gets hot. I hope I can make it look as cool as you!</p> <p>Also, the plaid dress is most excellent! Long sleeves especially. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298198 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 01:58:26 +0000 mrsblonde 298198@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have an amazing smile! Your whole face lights up. I love, love numbers 2, 3 and 4. I think you hit the "untucked" style on the bullseye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298194 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 01:43:18 +0000 Angie 298194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the contrast of your weekend looks and work look, Rae. You're quite "the bombshell" during the week and change to tomboy for casual. That's quite unique! You are fab and have a style all your own </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-backlog-vday-plaid-and-a-different-kind-of-70s#post-298174 Tue, 15 Feb 2011 00:30:39 +0000 rae 298174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1- My SO and I don't celebrate Valentine's Day, but I wore a little red to be festive at the office. </p> <p>2- Casual outfit for walking around Coronado Island on a breezy day. The buttons don't go all the way down on the shirt for some reason, so the safety pin is my nod to my grunge/punk roots. </p> <p>3- Nothing special, but I do love my red. </p> <p>4/5- Bought this dress for $1, threw out the self tie, and chopped off the goofy ruffles it used to have on the placket. Now I love it!</p> <p>6- OK, so Def Leppard was formed in '77, so it just barely qualifies. This is my Stephen-Hyde-inspired 70s look: concert tee, beat up belt, beat up shorts. I have a feeling it won't be everyone's cup o' tea! </p>
