It is perfect for you. Both versions look fab. It's amazing how a few simple substitutions really change the look and season. Congratulations to your daughter! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368942 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 02:39:14 +0000 MsLuna 1368942@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look gorgeous, Suz! I know going full on edge isn't your thing but this is definitely one of your edgier outfits! I think it's the boots combined with the denim skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368445 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 14:14:59 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1368445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stop saying "modern classic" like it's a dirty word Suz - it's a style that look fabulous on you!</p> <p>LOVE the skirt! I like each way you're wearing it here and I can picture it in colder weather with tights, booties and a warm pull over. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368442 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 14:09:50 +0000 Beth Ann 1368442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love a good denim skirt!&nbsp; I'm always on the hunt for one, but my standards are high, particular since I actually <i>would actually be</i> that "home school mom in the denim skirt."&nbsp; I'm sorely tempted to shimmy into the science fair with a super tight denim pencil, heels, and an angora sweater.&nbsp; You know:&nbsp; defy expectations, work the room.&nbsp; Hee.</p> <p>You look terrific in this -- I like the balance of the tailored skirt with the fluid top.&nbsp; <br />The quilting takes is a fun touch.</p> <p>Congrats to your DD!&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368439 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 14:08:07 +0000 Angie 1368439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sensational Suz strikes again. Love the skirt on you - it was meant to be yours. The cardi is a no brainier too. Rock on. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368438 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 14:07:46 +0000 Tanya 1368438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amazing outfits on you Suz, both versions!&nbsp; That is one cool skirt.<br />So interesting that you seem to be getting into cardigans again, as I am also thinking about adding a couple after quite a few years of no interest in them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368373 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 11:15:14 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1368373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, I love this outfit and think I will copy it. &nbsp;It was with your help that I concluded that I too am a modern classic and now that I have accepted it, I am enjoying it. &nbsp;</p> <p>That skirt looks gorgeous on you. &nbsp;To me it looks a touch bombshell but the rest of the outfit offsets it very well for a balance look. &nbsp;</p> <p>Is this an outfit you could wear with tights and boots in the colder weather? &nbsp;I was looking at the uniqlo site and they have a very lightweight thin tight that is in a special fabric that retains heat for cold weather. &nbsp;I am thinking I might try it out and wear them under pants and tights in the really cold weather to give me more freedom to wear things I like that otherwise would result in frostbite. &nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368365 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 10:26:35 +0000 lyn67 1368365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DD it's such geml! She did the honours last year, too-if I remember well?:-) Love the both versions. Chic and wearable! Love the long cardi, and scarf, and love the drape on the sides of the front tuck of that white top. prefect!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368335 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 06:26:56 +0000 Lyn D. 1368335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats to DD!</p> <p>I like the self-pattern on your skirt Suz </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368320 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 05:41:14 +0000 Inge 1368320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, you know how I feel about the Modern Classics:-) I think you have got yourself a winner here, Suz:-) I adore both outfits, and this skirt (the quilting is so fun) will play so well&nbsp;with many other pieces in your closet too. So we'll just overlook the fact that you weren't "supposed" to buy any more skirts;-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368310 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 05:23:16 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1368310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The skirt is great, Suz. It looks so good on you with that shell and then layered with the sweater &amp; scarf. Sandals or booties both work so well. So even if you just wear it in warmer weather, it's worthwhile. It's a great shorts alternative in the summer, right? And maybe it will be a good fall piece, too--though kitty claws sound definitively bad for tights. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368239 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 03:39:54 +0000 Jaime 1368239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I liked it when I saw the first picture, but when I saw your evening look I said whoa ("literally" - in keeping with the theme of teens)! Gorgeous! Must copy with non-denim skirt somehow! And congratulations to DD and her proud parents! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368129 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 02:04:26 +0000 Aida 1368129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh that's fun, thanks for the explanation! The scarf I was planning to wear for my copycat should work with this "tie" method, can't wait to try it ^^ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368126 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 01:59:35 +0000 Suz 1368126@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, all, and Sveta, I solemnly vow I will not orphan this baby. On Team Wear and wore it the first day I had it, so that is a good sign. :)&nbsp;</p> <p>And yes...no air conditioning means no need for hose. It was warm in our house today and even warmer at the awards ceremony.&nbsp;</p> <p>Aida, I'm chuckling because I didn't even tie the scarf. It's one of those long but rather wide oblongs. Instead of leaving it long ways, I folded it up into a wide rectangle and then a triangle and then just threw is on like a bib. And because of the fabric it doesn't even need to be tied. It just kind of clings to itself and hangs there. I guess it might come off in a really strong wind, but we didn't have that problem today.&nbsp;</p> <p>Una, I hope you got a good meal into you!&nbsp;</p> <p>E, I never seem to find lighter tights in good colours, or they don't work with my booties, or SOMETHING. I think I need to make a more concerted effort. The brick and mortar options here are not great for tights. The choices are pretty much black, black, and maybe navy. :)&nbsp;</p> <p>Karie, I am laughing too. And this skirt would be super on you!&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368101 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 01:30:02 +0000 bostonsmama 1368101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The classic girl in me is swooning at your ensemble! I love the scarf and long cardigan...I love to pair those with destroyed denim and booties, which are fabulous btw! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1368024 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 00:10:53 +0000 Aida 1368024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well! That skirt is divine on you, so I'm glad it's made a home in your closet. Totally adore the layered up version, and plan to copy within the week Is that an infinity scarf? If not, how do you have it tied? It looks pretty perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1367950 Thu, 02 Oct 2014 22:49:52 +0000 Staysfit 1367950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh this is just beautiful on you! &nbsp;You are giving me inspiration to wear my quilted denim skirt, maybe tomorrow in fact! &nbsp; I think we will have at least one more warm day before the air turns seasonably cold again. &nbsp;When it gets real cold I layer two pairs of opaque tights under my skirts. &nbsp;It's not cat proof, but they are warm. &nbsp;I try to find the least expensive wool tights possible. &nbsp;That helps.&nbsp;</p> <p>Congratulations to your DD!&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1367915 Thu, 02 Oct 2014 22:14:35 +0000 thimblelina 1367915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1367899 Thu, 02 Oct 2014 21:53:59 +0000 catgirl 1367899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay to your daughter!&nbsp; And I love this skirt - it's not just ANY denim skirt and suits you to a T.&nbsp; </p> <p>There is no shame in modern classic!&nbsp; It's the perfect style when you want to push a little in any direction, but not all the way.&nbsp; Like risotto, you can add anything to it and change it up.&nbsp; Yes, I need lunch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1367879 Thu, 02 Oct 2014 21:32:28 +0000 E 1367879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's such a great skirt on you Suz! At least we're having a warm fall, so you'll get to wear it more. Have you tried finding opaque tights in lighter colours? Or layering your lighter tights over silk long johns? I don't know if either of those are good solutions though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1367864 Thu, 02 Oct 2014 21:19:31 +0000 Karie 1367864@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh I love this skirt! I was so tempted to try it, but didn't because of the final sale - boo hoo, I think I should have taken the gamble. And I'm a skirt girl, too - I wear them year round.&nbsp;</p> <p>You look fantastic in both versions, with the booties outfit being my favorite. But isn't it nice to still be able to wear sandals this time of year?&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm still laughing over Viva's "poptart" comment. Oiy, sometimes I'm about as mature as my grade school students...and what's with you and Sveta spanking each other's bottoms :)&nbsp;I seem to remember another post where you were going to spank her bottom, or she was spanking yours, I don't remember. So what really happened in that hotel room in Boston, anyway, he, he, he&nbsp;:)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1367854 Thu, 02 Oct 2014 21:00:23 +0000 Suz 1367854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sharon, I adore skirts and wear them gladly all summer long. It's just in fall/ winter/ early spring that I find myself not wearing them, and it's a big problem. It's because of the warmth/ tights issues. To get the warmth I need, I have to wear opaque hose, and that means "dark" and I get so depressed by all the dark. Plus, my kitty gets his claws into my hose. So it's a constant dance.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather/page/2#post-1367853 Thu, 02 Oct 2014 20:59:07 +0000 Sveta 1367853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You naughty girl you, I need to spank you bottom! Another skirt!!!!<br />Well, actually I can understand the draw because with quilting it looks uqite modern...I even can forgive you is you promise me this skirt will not become an orphan! :-)<br />I especially like the rendition with the booties, scarf and cardigan - looking good! And this modern classic waving to you from afar! :-)<br />I think I am running colder than you: it is 22C here today and I am wearing nude hose and booties with my dress...but again I have AC at work :-(</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather#post-1367839 Thu, 02 Oct 2014 20:27:51 +0000 Sharon 1367839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look gorgeous.It may be classic, but it is also modern and youthful. Is it the weather that has led to you avoiding skirts in the past, or have you just not been in a skirt mood? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather#post-1367833 Thu, 02 Oct 2014 20:20:50 +0000 Meredith 1367833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, this looks great. I love how the quilting reads as a print at a distance. I don't love denim skirts or cardigans (on me), but this look has me rethinking both. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather#post-1367827 Thu, 02 Oct 2014 20:10:58 +0000 Day Vies 1367827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the cap sleeve on the blouse. I remember it from a post you did last year. I think the entire outfit is cohesive, full of visual interest and texture with and without the sweater and scarf. I like both versions but the paired down version wins by a hair for me. I think it's because I like that sleeve detail. It's a&nbsp;&nbsp;simple detail&nbsp;but it makes such a difference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-skirt-for-transitional-weather#post-1367756 Thu, 02 Oct 2014 18:29:39 +0000 Eliza 1367756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brilliant. &nbsp;It is both classic and Suz classic, IYKWIM. Very you, very versatile and I am betting very likely to keep morphing through the seasons. &nbsp;That skirt plays well with others and you look great.&nbsp; </p>
