I think #2 is my favorite, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2001100 Mon, 11 Feb 2019 15:35:43 +0000 Katerina 2001100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Christina</b>, thank you very much. I relate - footwear is the limitation for me too for this challenge, most of my shoes are in dark neutrals.</p> <p><b>Sonce</b>, thank you very much. I feel most comfortable in 4/5 and I see your point.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2001097 Mon, 11 Feb 2019 15:17:57 +0000 Sonce 2001097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have such a polished look, all of these are lovely!<br /> I think #4/5 looks the best on you of the three. Even though there is more contrast in that outfit, it seems to show YOU more than the blush outfits. Somehow your face fades out a little with the lower contrast. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2001094 Mon, 11 Feb 2019 15:07:45 +0000 Christina F. 2001094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Beautiful! I love your metallic sneakers.</div><div><br /></div><div> I am trying this challenge too, and will see how far I get without dark footwear (due to comfort and weather - the best stuff I have is black). The rest is surprisingly no problem for me.</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2001089 Mon, 11 Feb 2019 15:03:19 +0000 Katerina 2001089@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Synne</b>, thank you very much. I think skin tone is the most important aspect, whether one should use cool or warm colours. Then, there are of course other parameters, such as hair colour, eyes etc. But I am no expert...</p> <p>Thank you very much&nbsp;<b>RobinF</b>,&nbsp;<b>Suntiger&nbsp;</b>and&nbsp;<b>RainB</b>.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2001055 Mon, 11 Feb 2019 13:48:11 +0000 RainB 2001055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So soft, yet strong.

Very nicely done! I would also have assumed that dark, brighter colors are your best, based on your hair color. But maybe it has more to do with overall coloring/skin tone? Hm.. food for thought! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2001008 Mon, 11 Feb 2019 08:22:23 +0000 Katerina 2001008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Sterling</b>, thank you very much, I am blushing. I am sure you would not fail at any challenge. But if your wardrobe is built on dark neutrals, it would be difficult. My wardrobe has a lot of dark neutrals which I use in every outfit (with a few exceptions). But because I have tops, toppers and bottoms in light neutrals and in non-neutrals as well, it is possible to remix. But it is not easy, if one is so used to a certain way, especially in winter.</p> <p><b>Cardiff girl</b>, thank you very much. Yes, a nod to spring, these will work better in early spring, actually.</p> <p><b>Torontogirl</b>, thank you very much. I am so glad you like the colours, you are an expert and so good with colours.</p> <p>Thank you very much,&nbsp;<b>Alicewonderland</b>, it means a lot from such a very stylish lady.</p> <p><b>Joy</b>, thank you very much. I am honored. You are brilliant at mixing whites, creame and taupe, why not adding blush to the mix.</p> <p><b>Shevia</b>, thank you very much. You are so kind as always. Both the little pink scarf and the bag in the second outfit (No 3) are second hand finds from many years ago. I really like this bag - it has an unusual colour and adds some interest to many outfits.&nbsp;<br /><b></b><b></b></p> <p>&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2000968 Mon, 11 Feb 2019 02:48:38 +0000 Jaime 2000968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the knot in the first outfit - and yes the soft, dusty colors work beautifully on you. As does the brighter pink scarf in the second outfi - and the bag is fantastic. The patterned jacket is another great piece and looks so great over the white column. You are a great inspiration! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2000964 Mon, 11 Feb 2019 02:41:32 +0000 Anonymous 2000964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So fresh and pretty.

It did me good to play in my closet today. It was a rainy and grey day, perfect for preparing outfits. I have posted the blush trousers only once before - in the red and blush outfit with black shoes and bag (about ten months ago), see the picture here. This is how I normally wear them, with black or navy and/or red. Great idea to try the jacket in no 4 with these trousers, that I have not done, thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2000897 Sun, 10 Feb 2019 22:03:13 +0000 Katerina 2000897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Jussie</b>, I am honoured.</p> <p><b>Lisa P</b>, wow, thank you. What a compliment!</p> <p><b>Kelly</b>, thank you very much, you are so kind and supportive, as always.</p> <p><b>FashIntern</b>, thank you. Blush to lilac are nice colours I think. Everything is about how one wears the colours. I don´t think that any colour can be weak or stodgy in itself, it is always about the context.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2000894 Sun, 10 Feb 2019 21:53:11 +0000 Katerina 2000894@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Angie</b>, thank you so much. You have made may day. What a wonderful feedback. Yes, it feels very different not to wear any dark neutrals (any dark colours for that matter) in no 1-3. A bit like not being "grounded" enough colour wise, IYKWIM.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>cjh</b>, thank you very much. I think it is due to my dark hair and eyes and pale skin that I like to wear dark colours, strong colours and contrasts. I am honestly surprised that the light neutral outfit works. Especially because the colours are a bit dusty. Normally, I like pastels like baby pink and cool baby blue. I wear blush and taupe only in combination with dark neutrals or true red, cobalt etc. Until now, that is :-)</p> <p><b>Suz</b>, thank you, you are so kind. You are absolutely right. No 4-5 felt much more safe for me to wear because of the black in the pattern and because the grey boots make a bit of a contrast to the white trousers.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>LaPed</b>,&nbsp;<b>nemosmom</b>,&nbsp;<b>Rachylou&nbsp;</b>and&nbsp;<b>Jussie</b>, thank you very much.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2000871 Sun, 10 Feb 2019 20:42:45 +0000 Carla 2000871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Elegant and pretty, all business, but so approachable - I love it! Have we seen the blush trousers before? They are gorgeous!</p> <p>*Does the geometric topper work with the blush trousers? I see it has some pink in it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2000865 Sun, 10 Feb 2019 20:27:39 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2000865@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>These are great! I really like 4-5. So refreshing and nice. I like 1-2 a lot also, because I've become nervous that the blush-to-lilac, light and dark, spectrum that I want to move to might read as stodgy or weak. You pull it off with aplomb and show that it can be very fresh. Thanks for posting. <br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2000863 Sun, 10 Feb 2019 20:19:59 +0000 kellygirl 2000863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just wow! Impeccable as always. 4/5 is my absolute fave. Smashing use of light neutrals and different textures. The metallic scarf is brilliant. The poncho is gorgeous as well—and the dusty pink is a slam dunk. You have such a good eye for what works! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2000861 Sun, 10 Feb 2019 20:14:57 +0000 Anonymous 2000861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a collection of your best looks &nbsp;- the lighter colours are absolutely stunning with your hair and skin tone. &nbsp;You have the best classic-with-a -retro- nod wardrobe I've ever seen, and wear everything with aplomb.

How did it feel to wear the lighter neutrals?&nbsp;</p> <p>I also adore 4/5 -- what a fantastic jacket and scarf! Was it easier to wear because of the hit of dark in the pattern?&nbsp;</p> <p>#3 is also great -- relaxed and soft.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cc-day-1-weekend#post-2000827 Sun, 10 Feb 2019 18:37:54 +0000 cjh 2000827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So so pretty! And I have a question for you? Are you surprised how nice these combos look with your dark and dramatic hair? (I am not.) I ask because I wonder if you have been drawn to the darker brighter colors because of your dark (higher contrast) hair? </p>
