Thank you. I do think Lisa P was onto something. I tried darkening my brows a bit more today. I liked it. I am thinking I need to experiment with a dazzler pencil, or maybe a gel, to see how the color adds structure. I do think I need some. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-hits-or-misses#post-1907185 Wed, 11 Apr 2018 23:09:38 +0000 Katerina 1907185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mainelady, I really like all these outfits, you look beautiful! Don’t doubt - you have a wonderful style!<br /> What gorgeous jewelry - LOVE the brooch in particular.<br /> No 4 looks great, to my eye the proportions are perfect. No 5 is such a chic outfit! If you are unsure about the colour of the scarf anymore - perhaps as Lisa P says - stronger make up - eyebrows? And the dress is beautiful on you! I also love the variety of items and looks - very well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-hits-or-misses#post-1907177 Wed, 11 Apr 2018 22:43:52 +0000 Mainelady 1907177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you ChrisM. TIghts might not be a deal breaker for a while yet, but I wish I had a lighter colored pair....on my list for next year.</p> <p>Efbgen, I am so flattered. Sincerely flattered to think that you are watching my style. Wow. I will try hard not to disappoint! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-hits-or-misses#post-1906951 Wed, 11 Apr 2018 12:09:12 +0000 Anonymous 1906951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mainelady- I love everything about all of these looks.<br /> You style thing impeccably and love your use of jewelry. I can not pick a fav because I like them all. Ok I lie- I want that dress- lol<br /> You have such great skill and flair for putting outfits together- you are always on my watch list tor stying ideas. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-hits-or-misses#post-1906704 Wed, 11 Apr 2018 00:32:52 +0000 ChrisM 1906704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the dress, booties, and cardi outfit.&nbsp; super cute!&nbsp; Tights are not a deal breaker - you look seasonally appropriate!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-hits-or-misses#post-1906700 Wed, 11 Apr 2018 00:29:00 +0000 Mainelady 1906700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all. I appreciate your comments.</p> <p>Rachylou, you had me running to the mirror to check my hair! Thankfully no strands appear gray. Maybe it was the lighting or the digital....or maybe the scarf made my hair look green....if that is the case, the scarf is a goner.</p> <p>Angie, thanks for the Killer comment and suggestion. I think a green/blue scarf might make a nice difference.</p> <p>Lisa P, yup the dark tights seem wintery to me. Great idea to enhance my eyebrows! I will give it a try. I have been trying not to use too much pencil, because my hair is so light now, but maybe I need my eyebrows to better match my dark eyes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-hits-or-misses#post-1906551 Tue, 10 Apr 2018 16:53:06 +0000 Jessikams 1906551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are too hard on yourself! Everything looks good. My only thought is that the outfit with blazer and orange top could be improved by swapping out the dark necklace for a lighter one.<br /> Good work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-hits-or-misses#post-1906538 Tue, 10 Apr 2018 16:23:11 +0000 Anonymous 1906538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think everything looks good here too - but if anything , I might have worn a lighter coloured pair of tights with the dress and boots. &nbsp;Dark looks wrong at this time of year, doesn't it? &nbsp;Can't really tell much about the orange - the photo on my screen is quite dark, and the green is fine too. &nbsp;I wonder if emphasizing your brows more would give your face the structure it might need to support a bright colour like the green? &nbsp;If that makes sense? &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-hits-or-misses#post-1906533 Tue, 10 Apr 2018 16:13:30 +0000 Sara L. 1906533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they're all good.&nbsp; I don't see any problems.&nbsp; I like how the cardigan and shoes in #1 match each other.&nbsp; The proportions look fine in #2 and the green is a nice pop of color in #3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-hits-or-misses#post-1906529 Tue, 10 Apr 2018 15:39:01 +0000 cindysmith 1906529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>4 is my fave. That doesnt mean that the rest aren't really really good. Very polished. Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-hits-or-misses#post-1906501 Tue, 10 Apr 2018 14:40:14 +0000 Cardiff girl 1906501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the dress and jewellery and I really like outfit number4 . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-hits-or-misses#post-1906474 Tue, 10 Apr 2018 13:32:04 +0000 Angie 1906474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't see any misses. I see a fabulous woman with polish, poise and oozing verve, <b>Mainelady</b>.&nbsp;</p> <p>How great to see classic ballet flats again. They are perfect with the striped top. KILLER pairing.&nbsp;</p> <p>Your jewellery is always a treat - both in look and meaning. #4 is a classic look you wear well.&nbsp;</p> <p>You can try a cooler green perhaps? One with more blue in it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-hits-or-misses#post-1906460 Tue, 10 Apr 2018 12:57:08 +0000 rachylou 1906460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all of these. In the very last pic - 7 - I don’t think you look pale at all... but I do think your hair looks green (!) I think it’s the picture, something going on between the lighting and the digital colour. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-hits-or-misses#post-1906421 Tue, 10 Apr 2018 10:17:44 +0000 jussie 1906421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits, lovely. I think the tights in 1 are fine, they tie in with the necklace... I mean lighter tights would be nice but it’s certainly not a deal breaker.<br /> Outfit 2 I think is all good too, the proportions seem fine.<br /> Number 3 I love the striped sweater with the green popping against it. You do look a little pale but again, I definitely don’t think it’s a deal breaker.<br /> Some colours just tend to be a little harder on the complexion but it’d be a shame not to wear them if you really like them, iykwim.<br /> Thanks for sharing your pics! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-hits-or-misses#post-1906416 Tue, 10 Apr 2018 10:03:55 +0000 Mainelady 1906416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi. It’s me again, still trying to bridge winter and spring. Here are some other attempts to coax spring but still stay warm. I tried hard, but looking at the pics, think I fell short of the mark. Please offer your critiques. I may be dancing between winter and spring for a couple more weeks. </p> <p>#1-3. I really like the dress and tried to add a lighter cardi and footwear for warmth. I now think the brown tights are too dark. The jewelry was my happiness factor and pulled me through the day. The pin and the amber beads belonged to my grandmother.</p> <p>#4 In theory this should have worked. Are the proportions off? Does everything look too short? Is the orange too pale on me?</p> <p>#5. I really liked this combo when I put it on. The green has previously been a good color on me. In these pics, I think it might no longer be a great friend of mine. I look really pale....maybe I need bronzer, or a tan. Maybe I need a new green near my face? What do you think?</p> <p>Thank you for taking the time to look and comment. </p>
