Especially like it with the cognac! And your hair looks great too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028940 Mon, 20 May 2019 18:41:53 +0000 Angie 2028940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking KELLY-FABULOUS, as always. Your shapely legs are gorgeous in the types of boots you wear. Very flattering. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028918 Mon, 20 May 2019 18:01:53 +0000 Helena 2028918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly, you look fantastic in all of these. I agree with you; there is something so calming about wearing black, and you are lucky that it happens to look not just good, but extremely flattering on you, which is rare! It makes your eyes sparkle - just like Coco Chanel, the queen of black herself. Love you in colour, but I would not hesitate to wear black when it feels good if I was you! Your style is very inspiring to me; so pretty, polished and practical! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028910 Mon, 20 May 2019 17:41:18 +0000 smittie 2028910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the smoke colour! SO versatile! And as you say, not black.<br />I think I need those boots! They would be perfect for me and my crumby winters.</p> <p>Beautiful outfits, and you look so good in black. I love your fence and turf too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028859 Mon, 20 May 2019 14:51:12 +0000 Katerina 2028859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Each picture is gorgeous. You look very chic in black and your styling is just super.No 1 is a knockout. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028737 Mon, 20 May 2019 02:08:52 +0000 Brooklyn 2028737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Black looks great on you and I love how add contrast with skin and accessories. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028725 Mon, 20 May 2019 00:02:22 +0000 Jaime 2028725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in black. Love the camera bag strap in the first picture - and I do remember that forum jacket. Wow that was a while ago! Shorter dress taller boots but with plenty of leg is definitely a great look on you, but I like the midi a lot also! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028668 Sun, 19 May 2019 19:00:40 +0000 rachylou 2028668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The way you wear black, you are no PIB. There’s no lack of imagination in your style. Which is an interesting point, now that I think about it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028665 Sun, 19 May 2019 18:53:42 +0000 kellygirl 2028665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Fabbers!</p> <p>@Bijou: Thank you. You are the epitome of polish. I feel like I’ve got it down for the most part in casual work attire. It takes a lot more effort for dressy professional. You do it with the best of them. Professional with your own personal style that makes your outfits so interesting! </p> <p>@Adriana: Thanks! The nude legs absolutely help with lightening up the black. I’ve been struggling with some of these dresses because of the length but found that the taller boot makes them work appropriate. </p> <p>@lyn: Thank you. We had some great spring weather for a few weeks but now it’s rainy and cold again. I feel your pain!</p> <p>@ChristelJ: Thank you! I’ve noticed as I’ve gotten older that black isn’t as friendly unless I have something else to lighten it up. Must come with the greying of the hair and slight change in complexion.</p> <p>@bonnie, fifthandfinest: and Cardiff girl: Thank you!</p> <p>@kkards: Thanks. That Cloth and Stone shirtdress has been a workhorse. Works great over jeans too. </p> <p>@lisap: Thanks! Glad you like the boots. Veronicas are probably my favorite Frye style. The tall ones have been workhorses for years. I just recently acquired the caramel mid calf and wore them so much I decided to duplicate in smoke. I hardly wear anything else these days--at least with dresses. </p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028657 Sun, 19 May 2019 18:29:24 +0000 Anonymous 2028657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>kelly - would you mind linking the two pair of (Frye?) boots you are wearing here - or attaching finds if you have them? This is such a great look - especially with the striped dress. I need to investigate this for myself </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028653 Sun, 19 May 2019 18:22:40 +0000 kkards 2028653@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nothing wrong with having a fall back for when things get hectic...and you wear black well. #2 is my fav, simple and streamlined </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028647 Sun, 19 May 2019 18:02:19 +0000 Cardiff girl 2028647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well you are lucky that black suits you so well!And you always have such nice hair as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028642 Sun, 19 May 2019 17:34:39 +0000 fifthandfinest 2028642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love how you wear your boots! You look great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028617 Sun, 19 May 2019 15:33:50 +0000 Bonnie 2028617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You've got some really cute black dresses. Black plus brights look great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028597 Sun, 19 May 2019 13:41:22 +0000 ChristelJ 2028597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>With your coloring, black is flattering and rich. I love how you pair it with denim and boots, but also show skin which makes it look springy. The adorable striped dress almost becomes another color with it's added lightness; so cute. And of course you look great in brights, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028575 Sun, 19 May 2019 08:32:34 +0000 lyn67 2028575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Admiring the use of real high boots to&nbsp; your&nbsp; Spring outfits, great legs and dresses to them!:-)&nbsp; Spring is late here too, had already eaten up&nbsp; 6weeks of our good time:-(I am mad about!!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028565 Sun, 19 May 2019 07:12:30 +0000 Adriana 2028565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice. The black works wonderful on you. With nude legs it doesn't make it too dark looking. I like 2 and 5 the best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028561 Sun, 19 May 2019 06:56:21 +0000 Bijou 2028561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly there is nothing wrong with wearing black when you look so good in it. However, I must admit that for me - what makes these outfits is the attention to detail you always provide. Your light coloured bag with guitar strap look so fab with the denim and black - it just adds a pop of freshness. I always marvel at your fab boot collection and how you know to pair the right boots with your skirts and dresses to get the proportions right.</p> <p>You are so good at buying perfect casual yet polished clothing - the dresses in 3, 4 &amp; 5 are exactly the sort of dresses I wish were in my wardrobe and have yet to find (or at least have them looking like that on me). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-spring#post-2028559 Sun, 19 May 2019 06:32:23 +0000 kellygirl 2028559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I go through phases but when life gets hectic, I rely a lot on black. It’s a great fall back color for me because it goes with everything and requires very little thought. I should probably just adopt it as a uniform and stop fussing with brights and patterns...but where’s the fun in that?! Today’s rainy day outfit going to take DDs senior prom photos plus a bunch of work outfits. Thanks for looking!<br /> #1 features the spiegel lemming jacket if any of you remember that forum classic! Ha! </p> <p>ETA: Links. I duplicated the caramel colored Fryes in smoke which is actually a dark charcoal. I am trying to avoid solid black footwear. The dress in 5 are the moto inspired Fryes in the second find. The shorter the dress, the longer the shaft is what works for me.&nbsp;</p>
