I agree with lyn67 , all charcoal will really make the purple pop. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-on-one-of-those-days#post-1147380 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 13:38:14 +0000 Anonymous 1147380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 1 with bare legs. The longsleeved sweater looks better with the tights to my eyes. Great looks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-on-one-of-those-days#post-1147379 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 13:33:49 +0000 Suz 1147379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think both versions are really fun! If the tights were a bit less opaque #1 would work better, I think.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sorry you had to struggle to get these pictures but awed that you can do natural light at all -- here, in winter, that is just impossible.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-on-one-of-those-days#post-1147378 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 13:31:45 +0000 Anonymous 1147378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your fluid pencil skirt looks great on you. While I love the starry top, my favorite of the outfits is 4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-on-one-of-those-days#post-1147374 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 13:26:13 +0000 Sarah A 1147374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both outfits, but i like kinda quirky looks. The second version with the sweater seems more seasonally balanced. The bare arm and tights ... Well if it was warm enough for long bare arms id skip the hose (i despise hose...) so that is perhaps something to read with a grain of salt. Love the star shirt. Its super fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-on-one-of-those-days#post-1147371 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 13:24:17 +0000 ramya 1147371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amazing. I have a pencil skirt fear you know. So I am in awe here </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-on-one-of-those-days#post-1147365 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 13:19:15 +0000 Windchime 1147365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi, Neel--Your second outfit is awesome with the purple tights. I have burgundy tights, and you're inspiring me to try them with a skirt, even though the temp. here is about 0 degrees. That being said, I love your starry shirt and also must tell you, I think for the third time now, how fab your boots are. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-on-one-of-those-days#post-1147290 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 10:34:14 +0000 Debra 1147290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fab outfit, I like it best with the darker top and those boots are just gorgeous. You look great </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-on-one-of-those-days#post-1147286 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 09:32:12 +0000 lyn67 1147286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, nr 4 is great:-) taking notes, for my own purple tights!:-)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-on-one-of-those-days#post-1147282 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 08:53:44 +0000 Neel 1147282@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Added pic 4 with a darker gray sweater, to see if it works! &nbsp;Yep, I have nothing better to do today </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-on-one-of-those-days#post-1147278 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 08:34:45 +0000 Neel 1147278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aww thanks Lyn! Taking notes! Those are all brilliant ideas. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-on-one-of-those-days#post-1147275 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 08:30:35 +0000 lyn67 1147275@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm...all black, or all charchoal will do the job better to my eyes. Then, this specific skirt with a black/navy top either. Or be really bold and do some more color blocking with say&nbsp;a&nbsp; fluid mustard sweater&nbsp;to your hips, tuntucked. Or try the same outfit here with &nbsp;some knee length boots, to reduce the amount of the intense&nbsp;color, and put on a&nbsp;darker toper.(jacket/cardi).&nbsp;BUT also&nbsp;wait to see what others say!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-on-one-of-those-days#post-1147273 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 08:13:35 +0000 Neel 1147273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Lyn67! I searched hi and low for something to bookend with ... But no I couldn't find anything! Not even a bracelet, necklace, earring, belt or scarf (ornella style). That's my excuse for an incomplete outfit :D. I even searched for purple nailpaint and lipstick ... Lol!</p> <p>So how else do I wear these tights? Hmmm .... Do you think an all gray or all black outfit would have worked? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-on-one-of-those-days#post-1147272 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 08:03:40 +0000 lyn67 1147272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Neel! Great ideea with the purple tights, I have some, too-but never worn them as didn't have anything to bookend or tonaly match with. You didn't either, so-to be honest&nbsp;am a bit controversial on this one-will see if that's still OK&nbsp;to others(and will probably be&nbsp;in the minority&nbsp;with this concern-but&nbsp; pls. forgive me, I just can't help:-(). If not bookended, I still &nbsp;feel like the top part&nbsp;should be a bit more balanced in the color intensity with the tights&nbsp;or so...Otherwise there are some great and interesting pieces here as I know you have a great wardrobe and a fab style!&nbsp; Your&nbsp; travel capsule from the other thread &nbsp;is&nbsp;also more than &nbsp;fab-delighted me all:-)! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-on-one-of-those-days#post-1147264 Thu, 23 Jan 2014 07:17:17 +0000 Neel 1147264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>......when you dress up to go somewhere and that trip never happens?!</p> <p>I was trying to copy Angie's Lilac and Grey ensemble. &nbsp;The only purple I have is probably these tights that I bought recently (Thank you Ornella for the inspiration!). &nbsp;I changed my picture taking spot to a new&nbsp;corner of my house since it&nbsp;has better natural lighting than the rest. &nbsp;Unfortunately my camera wasn't behaving and for some reason on auto mode it&nbsp;thought blue tights look better with my outfit (pic 2). &nbsp;In manual mode, I was looking yellow (pic 3)! &nbsp;After fidgeting for about half hour with the modes and flash setting and umpteen frustrating fail pics, I googled and realized my white balance setting was off. &nbsp;Finally I managed to capture near perfect colors (pic 1). &nbsp;After all this hard work .... coupled with being a bit under weather, honestly I didn't want to step out anywhere! &nbsp;This outfit is saved for future use ........ and I am chilling out in my PJs now! &nbsp;I am now determined to tame my camera!</p> <p>Does the outfit formula work? &nbsp;I am wearing a black high waisted pencil skirt, with a tucked in&nbsp;stone gray tunic top and my favorite cut out boots! &nbsp;Any suggestions on improvement is always welcome. &nbsp;Thanks for looking!</p> <p>PS &nbsp;Sorry for the wrinkly outfit! &nbsp;I have no excuses! </p> <p>ETA - Pic 4 after Lyn's observation. &nbsp;This is with a darker grey top. &nbsp;Does this work at all? &nbsp;(You see I HAVE to do Angie's ensemble ... LOL!)</p>
