I use the "enhance" button and it usually lightens the picture (iPhoto). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-468351 Wed, 16 Nov 2011 16:39:33 +0000 modgrl 468351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm scared of pairing a light color with such a deep dark saturated purple. I think if it was a lighter colored purple, it would be easier for me to do white or gray. I'd have to find the right gray topper to moderate the color difference so I wouldn't feel off balance. Maybe my gray wedges would help to bookend a light colored top too. Next iteration coming soon. Thanks for the suggestions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-468346 Wed, 16 Nov 2011 16:33:32 +0000 Theory and Practice 468346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those purple skinnies are a definite hit! Love the color so much, I'm tempted to run out and find me a pair. I think a scarf might be fun! Also, I'd love to see Angie's recommendation, white and grey would look pretty snazzy with that purple. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-468272 Wed, 16 Nov 2011 13:53:20 +0000 Anonymous 468272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice outfit. Jewel toned jeans. This such a new and fresh idea. What about flash? Not sure if the Iphone has flash. My phone has it, and it's useful. Also, the lightning tips that have been said before. Stand as the light is behind the camera, and falling on you from the front. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-468182 Wed, 16 Nov 2011 05:07:02 +0000 Reneeb 468182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the purple jeans with black you look amazing. I was trying to decided about ordering the J C Crew matchstick cords in purple and you have just made my mind up. Thanks </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-467958 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 23:15:28 +0000 Angie 467958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mega fab! Try white and grey with these jeans too, Rita. </p> <p>I think that we are iphone case twins </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-467957 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 23:10:00 +0000 amyreh 467957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love colored jeans, these are such a fun color! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-467950 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 22:50:56 +0000 Deborah 467950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rita, love the skinnies. The color is gorgeous. Is purple a neutral?? Can't see the whole outfit clearly but the silhouette is lovely and your descripiton suggests its a fab outfit.</p> <p>With photographing dark outfits (which a lot of mine are) I make sure the light is in front of me (not behind) and I like to stand in a light area ie my walls are all white to contrast with the outfit. I don't know anything about photography but this seems to work ok for mine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-467827 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 19:32:57 +0000 Ginny 467827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love the purple skinnies with the boots, , very cool outfit. I love purple and black together ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-467773 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 18:50:28 +0000 Amy 467773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the outfit!</p> <p>Jonesy is right, you need to shine light onto your outfit from the front, not behind. If you get a desk lamp you can point it towards yourself so your outfit is lit. Alternatively, stand facing a window so the light illuminates your clothes from the front.</p> <p>If you end up using a camera other than the one on your phone, you can also point the camera at a color that is mid-way between bright and dark, i.e. a medium gray or something similar, set the exposure and then point the camera out your outfit, focus and snap! :)</p> <p>Lighting after the fact in Photoshop or the equivalent won't yield the absolute best results, but it can help a lot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-467771 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 18:49:31 +0000 nancylee 467771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really cute.

You look great. Purple = neutral? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-467757 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 18:38:48 +0000 Sylvie 467757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice. Seconding the photoshop lightening and setting yourself up so the light falls on you instead of behind you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-467736 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 18:15:38 +0000 Louise 467736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooo purple skinnies me likey! perhaps add a colourful scarf or bag? X</p> <p>Eta oops that will teach me to read the post properly you didn't want suggestions for dark outfits but pictures! Sorry no advice on that x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-467673 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 16:42:59 +0000 kellygirl 467673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, purple jeans! You look amazing in skinnies, Rita!

I am not into the super bright jeans, so this is a great compromise. Digging the pairing of two moody hues. I have the same problem with dark outfits. I adjust the brightness, but it only helps so much. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-467597 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 15:20:00 +0000 Jonesy 467597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look great! Re. the lighting: it looks like in this particular room, the light is all behind you, coming through a window? If you are standing in front of the light you are going to look darker, vs. standing in the light, if that makes any sense... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-467589 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 15:13:54 +0000 morethanbeige 467589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This outfit is a winner! Love the textures added by the topper. Beautiful purple jeans! </p> <p>I always have the same problem with dark outfits. I end up really lightening the color to see detail. It makes the pic look a little funky, but it works. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-467585 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 15:09:33 +0000 Anonymous 467585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooohhhh, I love that rich purple on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-467574 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 15:01:53 +0000 sarah 467574@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks GREAT!

It's not perfect, but it helps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colored-jeans#post-467531 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 13:30:26 +0000 modgrl 467531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's hard to see but these are dark purple skinnies with a black ruffled belted sweater vest, a black layering tee and knee high boots. Anybody have suggestions for taking wiw's of very dark outfits? </p>
