				<description>&#060;p&#062;This skirt is my favorite single item of yours.  It looks so amazing on you.  And of course the entire outfit is great, too!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Thanks so much, ladies!  I loved this all day.  And it actually gives me a good rear view, which I only noticed as I was changing out of it.  I might consider this skirt with a fitted top, since the cut is so forgiving.  Hubba hubba!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Fun! I don't mind all the leather, since the jacket is a sleek leather and the boots distressed. I wouldn't consider those Harley boots &#034;sleek&#034; but maybe &#034;sleek for Una&#034;  <span aria-hidden="true" class="emoticon emoticon-wink icon-emoticon-wink "></span>  I think this would also look equally fun with a fitted black top, though maybe the whole thing would end up too not-slouchy for you then.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;This is a brilliant outfit. I do think you have managed to be true to yourself with this outfit and still be work appropriate.  I would absolutely hire you, anime hair and all.  That skirt is so beautiful.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I think this is still you by like a thousand percent. Loves!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;ETA: On the leather, plus leather, plus leather issue, I have chosen to ignore it, since it is cold and nasty here, and all of my bad weather shoes as leather. I do have some suede booties and boots that I take in a pinch too.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I am feeling so limited by my footwear &#034;issues&#034; lately, so I can relate. I  am forced to do so much walking, on rain, ice, snow, you friggin name it. sometimes I have to show up, ready to roll, to a corporate office, where often times I'm a guest and I cannot show up with a change if shoes. Booo....

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Yes, those are sleeker!  They look really comfortable too.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Do you still have those 80/20 booties or did they give up the ghost?

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Oh, echoing everyone's love of the skirt but with the BOOTS--my oh my! Such a moody, almost surreally cool look. It's like you get to have your cake and eat it too. Arty black! Splash of color! So unexpected.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Heh, I think I crossposted with you and Denise! Those HDs are really cool and sleeker than the Gigidios, but sleek is relative, right?  <span aria-hidden="true" class="emoticon emoticon-smile icon-emoticon-smile "></span>  It's hard to get away from leather footwear for sure, especially in your climate, so perhaps minimizing the amount of leather is the way to go...

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Is it sad that I didn't even realize I was wearing two leather items?  You're right, and Denise hinted at it also.  I am at a loss for footwear though, since it's only boots for me until May... Unless the boots I ordered are sleek, but they are still leather!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Yes, leather and Helmut Lang apparently do go well together! Love the gorgeous colors of the skirt on the black ground -- and complementing your hair.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Here's my honest feedback: I would like to see the outfit with one leather item--the jacket or the boots (as you do in the second picture). Having both feels a bit heavy to me. Or maybe it's a proportion thing, e.g., more streamlined leather footwear to go with the blazer.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Denise, you are psychic!  And I am so appreciative of your suggestions.  I actually have a more refined pair of black boots coming in the mail (if you can call Harley-Davidson refined).  They are these:&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;a href=&#034;http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000SOMT7K/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&#038;#038;psc=1&#034; rel=&#034;nofollow&#034;&#062;http://www.amazon.com/gp/produ.....#038;psc=1&#060;/a&#062;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;A little sleeker?  Or maybe my judgment is off - I'm so bad with sleek boots!  I was looking for something more midcalf and as an alternative to the Gidigios, which I really shouldn't wear EVERY day.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;To be 100% honest, you look *AWESOME*  <span aria-hidden="true" class="emoticon emoticon-smile icon-emoticon-smile "></span>   It's not something that would be comfortable for a lot of women (myself included) but totally works on you! You look authentic and really lovely.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Denise, see - I want YOUR closet!  Seriously.  The R13s....&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I am trying to find ways to use everything I have more.  I feel like Natalie has set a great example for that - if she can use her whole wardrobe through a pregnancy, I should be wearing everything I own too!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Una you have such an enviable closet.  I really love all the pieces you have added in the past year.  The jacket and skirt look amazing together.  And your choice of layering top is perfect.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;ETA -- I think the outfit takes on a rugged persona with the Gdigios (sp?).   Which works and makes sense for your climate.  I think a more refined bootie or heel would work too, without losing too much cool factor or straying too far from your style persona.   Does that make sense?
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Tina, this is the leather version of my Theory Lanai blazer.  Alicat has it too.  The Lanai is my FAVORITE shape for a jacket now - like the Helmut Lang smoking jacket that I've pinned about 10,000 times.  &#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Rachylou, that would be a summer look - was just trying it out!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Rae, the Gidigios look great with bare legs.  I have tried it in the house.  I think a frayed shorter skirt or shorts would be a fab spring look.
&#060;/p&#062;
