And so are you, Suz. I LOVE the white with the burgundy. Looks so fresh. Of course, you had me with the&nbsp;white jeans. You look mega fab. Report booties look plenty current.&nbsp;</p> <p>That cardi is getting lots of love with my clients. A true winner and nice way to wear cards for Fall. Loving the ice view especially with the high-low hemline. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it/page/2#post-1353997 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 19:39:06 +0000 Lisa 1353997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am in love with the color of that sweater on you! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it/page/2#post-1353796 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 16:03:31 +0000 Suz 1353796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Elizabeth -- this style is 3 years old now, and is a knock-off of the Isabel Marant Dicker. The toe is quite rounded and the relatively wide vamp gives a sort of "flower pot" effect on the foot. I think the current styles tend to be sleeker, a little less "western" influenced,&nbsp;and either pointy or almond toed.&nbsp;</p> <p>But, having said that, this bootie is without question one of the most comfortable I've ever had, especially at that heel height, and having worn them last night for a long walk, there is no way in creation I'm giving them up yet!&nbsp;</p> <p>I do feel a bit guilty that they don't get a lot of wear. It's because they're really a warm weather bootie. You can wear them with socks or hose, but they're best with bare feet (believe it or not) -- and if you wear with socks or hose, you really need wide leg pants because the shape of the boot means you can't pull the legs over. I guess I could tuck <b>INTO</b> the bootie with super skinnies, but I don't care for that look on me at all.&nbsp;</p> <p>Anyway, in our climate this pretty much relegates them to May-early June and September. Feels a bit indulgent to have booties that are good for only 10 weeks a year, but hey. I already own them. :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it/page/2#post-1353670 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 13:03:26 +0000 Elizabeth P 1353670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this colour combination, and you've executed it perfectly.&nbsp; I had missed Parsley's post, so it was a treat to pop over to that to see how she'd styled it as well.</p> <p>So, I'm curious as to why you might think the booties are dated.&nbsp; They look like perfect little booties to me, what could be dated about them?&nbsp; What am I missing?&nbsp; Or is it just that you've had them for a while so perhaps they don't feel "fresh"? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it/page/2#post-1353657 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 12:48:44 +0000 Mona 1353657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, then we should thank Parsley, shouldn't we? You look lovely in this new sweater. The booties, handbag and your hair all match which perfects this outfit. BIG LOVE! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it/page/2#post-1353643 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 12:27:18 +0000 Janet 1353643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such a beautiful color on you, Suz -- I see why you had to follow Parsley's lead. It's a great outfit, and the booties look totally current to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it/page/2#post-1353634 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 11:55:15 +0000 Joana 1353634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this color combination. I do this combination sans white in burgundy pants, blue top, and taupe accessories - it works so well </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it/page/2#post-1353586 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 09:44:59 +0000 Ornella 1353586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous, both outfits from both ladies. Your chambray shirt bridges the crisp, summery&nbsp;jeans and cozy cardigan beautifully. The booties and the scarf seal the perfect Autumn outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it/page/2#post-1353573 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 08:16:53 +0000 Asingh 1353573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, YLF! </p> <p></p> <p>PS: I was looking for inspiration to wear booties (my first) with pants/skinnies, and your outfit has provided me just that.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it/page/2#post-1353570 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 08:08:21 +0000 Ingunn 1353570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeuos mix, Suz, and so very you. I love the booties too (maybe because they look a bit like mine). The dark red is definitely your color! Yes, I think tartan could classify as a neutral, or at least a core classic.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it/page/2#post-1353566 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 07:39:06 +0000 Lyn D. 1353566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the colour, and the scarf is so Fab the way you have draped it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it/page/2#post-1353516 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 04:02:48 +0000 Gigi 1353516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, this is the perfect shade of red for you! And it pairs so perfectly with the denim shirt.</p> <p>I think the booties still look good. I like what Shevia said: they don't bring the outfit from borderline to current; I feel like they are kind of neutral regarding the currentness of the outfit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it/page/2#post-1353485 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 03:06:59 +0000 deb 1353485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this color, also. But, It is wool (sad face).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it/page/2#post-1353478 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 02:57:58 +0000 Jaime 1353478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz I can see why you love this color. It is truly a wow color on you! You look fantastic - I really like the scarf with this too. </p> <p>If you will pardon a shoes muse, regarding the booties, they do not look dated to me at all, and you see new versions of this to this day. What&nbsp;they don't do (nor need to in this case) is bring the outfit from borderline to current. As I see it, shoes don't always have to do the main work, but rather can be supporting players, when you have a great outfit like this one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it#post-1353471 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 02:47:44 +0000 Suz 1353471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Neel!! I am keeping. It's not many booties you can just pop on your feet, not having worn them for months, and then hike five miles in without a hitch.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it#post-1353469 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 02:47:01 +0000 Suz 1353469@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much! Boy, is it ever nice to come home to kind compliments. I read a lot of dark poems tonight! (With reason...my poetry friends are going through tough times...)&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Marcy</b>, this is the XS. I decided I would rather have it oversized than too small. I am bigger than YLF mythology portrays me, I think! Hardly an Amazon, but not a true petite, either. Anyway, this size seems to work, and thank you for the inspiration!&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Joy</b>, I think you should come to our poetry group with that beautiful turn for language! And thank you.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Aubergine</b>, you would look great in this red! &nbsp;</p> <p>And thanks, <b>Ms. KK.</b>&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Una</b>, I hear you about the colour combo feeling "Maine" like. I agree. Maybe that's why I like it. I spent a lot of childhood summers in Maine.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Shedev</b>, I am glad we are agreed on the neutrality of tartan. Now we can both proceed to wear it whenever and with whatever we like! :)&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Alana</b>, don't give up yet. The season is young. And you often see red in the stores closer to the holidays, too.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Tracy,</b> I think you are right about the scarf. Normally I like to leave them off but this time it did add something.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Aida</b>, thank you, and if you are still wearing your Reports, I can breathe a sigh of relief and continue to wear mine. They really are sort of shockingly comfortable! And thanks for your kind words. Yay for the taupe love.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Jackie</b>, high five!&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Unfrumped,</b> thank you. Glad you think the booties are okay.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Karie</b>, thanks -- the sweater does not itch but then I am not wearing it right against my skin. I don't think it will be itchy because it's double knit.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it#post-1353463 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 02:35:08 +0000 Neel 1353463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my Suz! You and Parsley both are such inspirations! Lovely colors on you! I especially love the light booties with this. I am not sure if it is dated ... But I would keep them if they were comfy </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it#post-1353462 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 02:31:41 +0000 Parsley 1353462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woohoo! Don't you look fabulous-&nbsp;I am unworthy!<br />But nonetheless, I'm completely honored to have inspired you in any way.<br />I love your scarf with it, and the booties, and well, the whole thing!<br />Is this the XXS? It fits you perfectly.</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it#post-1353455 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 02:19:20 +0000 MsLuna 1353455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That red and denim together is sooooo nice Suz!

Of course, that's not surprising coming from <i>me</i>, but you wear it so well.</p> <p>The shoes don't look dated at all to me, and I feel like the combination with the rolled-up jeans makes them look especially modern. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it#post-1353428 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 01:40:38 +0000 catgirl 1353428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are so your colors.

I don't think the reports are dated, but you can pair them with really current stuff if you are concerned.</p> <p>Tartan is a neutral in my world.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-parsley-made-me-do-it#post-1353378 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 00:31:19 +0000 Alana in Canada 1353378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning.&nbsp;<br />I am looking for a deep red cardigan just like this--well, I was.
