Very chic! I am happy to read about the AG leatherettes, too. I just bought a pair from ebay (in my normal size) and am hoping they will work. They're a bit snug because I am a couple of pounds up this week, and it's all at my waist. Hoping things will get back to normal weight-wise. Generally though, I am pretty sure they are the right size. And the material is fab. Mine are burgundy and definitely cropped on me. &nbsp;I hope they look as good as yours do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575901 Sat, 24 Oct 2015 11:40:14 +0000 Deborah 1575901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575899 Sat, 24 Oct 2015 11:38:26 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1575899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great. &nbsp;The drape and folds of the sweater and the bunching of the pants seem to add a textural element that works well with the all black. &nbsp;The necklace and watch do the same with silver. &nbsp;I think it works very well but I am into the all neutral this year so it makes sense that I gravitate to this type of look. &nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575886 Sat, 24 Oct 2015 10:50:12 +0000 Style Fan 1575886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done.&nbsp; Not sure how to do PA hair.&nbsp; I have golden neat hair.&nbsp; My hair goes neat no matter what I do.&nbsp; Not shaving it.&nbsp; Maybe put gel on and pull back in ponytail.&nbsp; Rather severe looking.&nbsp; Or just leave it as Lisa says so you don't look like you are wearing a costume.</p> <p>Love the shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575859 Sat, 24 Oct 2015 07:34:26 +0000 Anonymous 1575859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great!

I think of Mad Max shaved head but that would take some serious apocalyptic commitment..lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575664 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 22:21:01 +0000 Carole 1575664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow!

These are all items I am already comfortable with, but I would usually not do the all black look.</p> <p>Denise, I like the leatherettes. They do stretch a bit so I would not recommend any sizing up in them. I do notice that they like to bunch a bit at the knee, something Janet mentioned wrt some coated jeans she had, too. They are supposed to be cropped but they aren't really on me.</p> <p>Lisa </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575617 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 21:01:20 +0000 CocoLion 1575617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How do you like the AG leatherettes? &nbsp;They look great on you. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575616 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 21:01:15 +0000 Bonnie 1575616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your pants and boots are the perfect base for a great post apocalyptic outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575608 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 20:51:45 +0000 Brooklyn 1575608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575543 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 19:12:18 +0000 Sara L. 1575543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice!&nbsp; I love the statement necklace.&nbsp; The cardigan is great too - I love how it looks both closed and open.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575538 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 18:57:16 +0000 Anonymous 1575538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, you look fantastic in this outfit - and keeping your "usual half" just makes the look authentic for you. &nbsp;Not like a complete costume. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575535 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 18:46:15 +0000 Dee 1575535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit!&nbsp; Love this look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575496 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 17:38:02 +0000 catgirl 1575496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it, of course! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575490 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 17:35:35 +0000 rachylou 1575490@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fab! Now did you out this together before or after reading today's blog post? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575476 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 17:15:14 +0000 Angie 1575476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super cute. The grey bag, necklace and Apple watch make the look for me. Breaks up the black.&nbsp;Very nicely done.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-drape#post-1575473 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 17:10:52 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1575473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Black Allsaints cardigan -- it can be cardigan or sort of a drape front poncho. I got it this summer but failed to put it in finds, as I did the open toe boots bought from there at the same time.  The sweater is a combo black merino and black silk. Underneath is an APC short sleeve sweatshirt with silver in the knit. And my new AG Leatherette ankle leggings. The grey bag is also Allsaints, from last year.</p> <p>My hair isn't really post apocalyptic enough, though. </p>
