I also love that dress and love our fab jacket! I may have to go check out Danier to find a jacket for Christmas! I also hope to find some boots that fit me as perfectly as those do on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-762488 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 01:27:18 +0000 Aida 762488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE! Can't get over how perfect this leather jacket is for you ^^ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-762082 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 18:00:55 +0000 modgrl 762082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got the Marvin K ones that are almost identical to the blondo's. We can still be boot twinnies </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-762079 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 17:59:00 +0000 Transcona Shannon 762079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Day Vies - thank you so much for your analysis. I enjoy hearing what others see. And yes, Gain (my kitty cat) tries to get into every shot. He's such a diva!</p> <p>Rita - the boots are working out really well. It's too bad they didn't work for you but your new booties are GORGEOUS so as long as we're both happy, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-762061 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 17:42:54 +0000 modgrl 762061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this dress paired with black leather. They are made for eachother!! How are the boots working out for you? They look great here. Usually when I wear a leather jacket, I don't also wear knee high leather boots. Just my thing I guess. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-762049 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 17:36:42 +0000 bj1111 762049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love #1 and #2...hitting all the high notes here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-762038 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 17:25:42 +0000 Day Vies 762038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely love how you styled this dress. This looks absolutely wonderful. (Then again I have been in love with teal lately).</p> <p> I can't begin to pick apart why I love this ensemble so much, but I will try. Let's start with the cat who sneaked in the collage photo OK first there's the sleek, stark cut of the jacket layered over a more organic/ornate matte dress. Of course there is color. Then there is more texture with the boots and good tension with the graphic structured bag and the organic pattern in the dress. This is a home run. Bravo! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-762007 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 16:57:05 +0000 Preppy Pear 762007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hot dang! What an incredible dress, what an incredible outfit! I'm in awe - the blazer, the boots! Love, love, love! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761992 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 16:26:23 +0000 Sona 761992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>very yumm-o!!! I love ikat as a seasonless item rather than limited to summer and spring only. Great interpretation here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761990 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 16:24:00 +0000 MsMary 761990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this! That jacket is awesome!! As are the boots! And the bag, and the dress... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761989 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 16:23:51 +0000 Transcona Shannon 761989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una - here's the original K/R thread on the leather jacket <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-leather-jacket-2" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....r-jacket-2</a> and I just started wearing it recently now that the weather is cool. I've only worn it a couple of times so far - here's some pics for you.</p> <p>Thanks Rae! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761976 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 16:06:18 +0000 rae 761976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm very glad you splurged on the jacket, too, it is a thrill to see how perfectly it fits and flatters you every single time. Love that trench, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761973 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 16:02:52 +0000 catgirl 761973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, since opaque tights are a must for me in winter, I have zero problem with the look and wear it often. Did I miss the leather blazer?! It's fantastic! When did you get it and how else have you worn it? Looking for inspiration for my Theory blazer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761957 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 15:25:28 +0000 Transcona Shannon 761957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Julie - Gain the kitty follows me everywhere and does his best to be in every WIW post!</p> <p>Angie - ack! Didn't even think of the new clutch. Guess that's why you're the stylist - lol!</p> <p>Jules - I totally agree about black leather being classic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761933 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 14:40:54 +0000 Jules 761933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had to add - further to the black discussion - although I am trying to move away from black for coats &amp; basics, I really think this jacket has so much impact and is so beautiful in black. I can't imagine any other highly wearable "neutral" having the same effect. I guess black leather is a classic, for me anyway. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761932 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 14:39:28 +0000 Angie 761932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER</p> <p>I'm glad you splurged on that black blazer :)</p> <p>Your new clutch from MIL would look fun with this outfit too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761931 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 14:38:08 +0000 JulieJohn 761931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just super! I love your color combos, and bonus accessories shots. Kitty looks smitten with you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761920 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 13:57:02 +0000 Jules 761920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit. love the jacket!<br /> It looks like the boot almost meets the dress, so I think the flow from black tight to boot is necessary. I've been struggling with this lately with some dresses and skirts that hit below the knee worn with tall boots (for lack of other options). I find the tight must match the boot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761912 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 13:48:33 +0000 ramya 761912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Shannon Can you tell that I am taking notes on what to wear in Norway </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761908 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 13:45:12 +0000 Transcona Shannon 761908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ramya - you betcha! And I have. It's not that cold here yet. I definitely dress for the weather having been in Manitoba my whole life.

I also love that silver trench. I think the whole outfit looks great together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761879 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 13:09:35 +0000 Anonymous 761879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my goodness, those boots are so sleek that I first thought you were wearing tights and shooties! You look fabulous, and that trench is beyond divine! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761865 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 12:33:09 +0000 Kristin L 761865@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! The green dress and blazer look great on you. And trench is great jacket to wear over it all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761861 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 12:20:40 +0000 Jaime 761861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great and I especially like how the touch of white in the bag lightens things up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761860 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 12:17:09 +0000 Raisin 761860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a great outfit, and the green is a perfect shade for you. I really like the leather blazer too, I need a blaze but never thought of going leather. Very nice piece though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761857 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 12:03:15 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 761857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the gorgeous green in the print dress keeps it from being too black and adds the visual interest. You also have great texture in the boots and the leather jacket is fab as always. I really like it. We must have been feeling a bit of a premonition because I was contemplating an almost all black outfit today too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761853 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 11:53:35 +0000 Deborah 761853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It certainly works to my eye:). I have always liked the look of black opaque tights and black boots or booties and while it can look heavy at times, this works well as there is the black in the dress and the black jacket. There is a very nice "flow" to this outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-green-ikat-black-leather-silver-sheen#post-761842 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 11:32:16 +0000 Transcona Shannon 761842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today's outfit started with my green/black Ikat print dress from Cleo Petites. It is definitely one of my favourite dresses. I topped it with my black leather blazer, which I have to say is one of my best purchases EVER. I'm so glad I splurged for this jacket. I'm wearing black diamond pattern tights and my tall black leather Blondo boots for footwear. On top of everything when I head out the door is my shiny silver grey trench coat. I'm wearing my black/white leather handbag and jewelry is just a ring.</p> <p>What do you think? Does this all work together? Is it too heavy with the black tights? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Trench: Ricki's (thrifted)<br /> Leather Jacket: Danier Leather<br /> Dress: Cleo Petite<br /> Tights: Hue<br /> Boots: Blondo<br /> Handbag: Danier Leather (thrifted) </p>
