Your outfit looks fab and I really like your new lipstick! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705398 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 16:32:22 +0000 Vicki 705398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your "old" dress with the bag and nude shoes. Your lipstick is so pretty and, like Parsley, I'm not "seeing" purple, but more of a deep rose or plum. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705394 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 16:24:36 +0000 Gaylene 705394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fabulous in your dress and pearls, Shannon-- not even remotely resembling Barbara's look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705381 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 16:04:15 +0000 Angie 705381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm loving it!! The retro touch with the pearls and the pattern mixing bring this dress to life! </p> <p>An 11 out of 10. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705362 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 15:40:11 +0000 Suz 705362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I remember this dress. No wonder it's a workhorse for you. It's just lovely. Those boutique 9s are getting their wear, too! Love the new lipstick as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705342 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 15:16:29 +0000 JR 705342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As a non pattern-mixer, I love everything about this outfit except the presence of the bag. I don't like its yellowish tones with the blue-purple of the dress. The lipstick looks fantastic though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705338 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 15:13:04 +0000 Transcona Shannon 705338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bring out those pearls and wear them Claire! Unfortunately my hubby absolutely HATES pearls - calls them "old lady" and says they remind him of Barbara Bush (lol)! But I truly think it's all what you pair them with and how you wear them. I think they're classic and intend to always have a pair in my jewelry box.</p> <p>Zap - you know, I never thought about trying the dress without a belt. It did come with a skinny black belt so have just always worn it with a belt (not always the black skinny one mind you). Might have to give that a try - thanks!</p> <p>Thanks ladies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705269 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 13:58:42 +0000 citygirldc 705269@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705266 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 13:51:39 +0000 texstyle 705266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It all works together beautifully - great outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705252 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 13:32:46 +0000 Anonymous 705252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look so pretty! You're getting really good at taking your own pictures, and the shot in #2 looks so cute and candid. Love the dress and you're making me brave to wear my pearls. I don't know why I'm so chicken about them. I love that bag; it can do no wrong IMO and your lippy is a really pretty mauve. The consistency looks really nice too. Have a lovely Tuesday! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705240 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 13:06:50 +0000 Parsley 705240@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely in your dress and pearls, Shannon.<br /> I'm not crazy about the bag with it, although I do love that bag. But I'm not a big pattern-mixer, in general, so take that with a grain of salt.<br /> Your new lipstick is so pretty! It doesn't look purple, though. Funny how lipsticks change when worn. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705225 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 12:17:26 +0000 Anonymous 705225@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the dress with that bag. It is a coordinated mismatch. The only thing is that perhaps you don't need the belt, but the dress might be one of those that come with a belt, soooo it is really a minor point.<br /> Awesome outfit overall and the lipstick color is so pretty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705221 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 12:11:41 +0000 Anonymous 705221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great dress, I really love seeing your outfits in the morning! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705215 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 11:53:18 +0000 Janet 705215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That dress is made for you, and I like the shoes and bag with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705211 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 11:43:21 +0000 ramya 705211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the pattern mix....<br /> love the pearls and the lipstick </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705209 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 11:34:59 +0000 Deborah 705209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a stunning dress on you Shannon. And I really like the pattern mix with the bag:). And I so love seeing pearls come out to play. That is a great shade of lipstick! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-dress-with-new-purse#post-705208 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 11:32:08 +0000 Transcona Shannon 705208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, maybe two years old isn't THAT old for a dress...I love this dress just as much now as when I bought it and wear it all year long - on its own with sandals in summer and with tights, boots and jacket in winter. It truly is a workhorse in my wardrobe.</p> <p>To play up the lighter tones in the dress, I've paired it with my neutral peep toe booties and the new Elliot Lucca handbag. I like the booties with the dress, but not sure the handbag works with it - what do you think? I've also been missing some of my vintage jewelry so pulled out my pearls to wear. I like them with this dress and neckline.</p> <p>Also showing you the new soft purple lipstick I just bought for fall from The Body Shop. I'm in LOVE with this colour!</p> <p>So does this outfit work? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Dress: Attitude by Jay Manuel<br /> Shoes: Boutique 9<br /> Handbag: Elliot Lucca<br /> Pearls: vintage </p>
