All of these pieces are new this season--the two pants, the tee, and cardigan--and I'm really enjoying these colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593381 Mon, 14 Dec 2015 20:11:33 +0000 Sammy Gregory 1593381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1 is my favorite! I'm a huge fan of booties and love the gray. Love the whole outfit it looks fantastic on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593369 Mon, 14 Dec 2015 19:14:03 +0000 Anonymous 1593369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these shades on you Sharan! I'm going with #1 as my fave too, with #2 next.

I like the first one best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593197 Mon, 14 Dec 2015 05:38:06 +0000 Brooklyn 1593197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that top on you. My fave is no 2. I prefer it over the third outfit because of the low contrast belt and pendant. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593151 Mon, 14 Dec 2015 02:56:26 +0000 Suz 1593151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous tee on you. Wow! As Angie says, the pattern is fabulous with your hair and the colours also flatter. I really like all the footwear but maybe especially the first pair.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593150 Mon, 14 Dec 2015 02:55:53 +0000 Jaime 1593150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That top is fantastic - please add it to my order from MBM! I like it best with the booties, both pairs look good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593129 Mon, 14 Dec 2015 02:04:50 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1593129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Windchime, thanks! Full of joy is so right--what a fun piece to play (once I finally learned it)! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593125 Mon, 14 Dec 2015 01:55:28 +0000 Windchime 1593125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a wonderful color palette on you! I love the shirt, and I love your recital outfit. ( I also love the Haydn you played; it's full of joy. I bet many of the younger students were motivated listening to you.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593108 Mon, 14 Dec 2015 01:23:43 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1593108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone! I appreciate your thoughts and encouragement. I ended up wearing the flat black booties to the recital--so, a version of #2 (without the pendant, and with the silver belt instead of black). </p> <p>Peri, yes, I'm the oldest of my teacher's students. The recital featured several pianists from age 7 to 13, then, me and the teacher. I played "The Wayside Inn," by Robert Schumann, and the first movement of Sonata 7 (or 16?) in D major by Haydn. <br />The shirt seems to have some almost legible words, like "peace" and "love," but not many. </p> <p>Denise, the pants in photo 1 are my Rag &amp; Bone jeans, which I love. All the others are the Loft skinny ankle pants, which are work-friendly (i.e., not jeans). I was leaning toward the loafers if I had gone with shoes instead of the booties.</p> <p>Mirjana and Joy, I like the look of the ballet flats, too; I was afraid my feet might be cold. </p> <p>Karie, LOL!</p> <p>Angie, thanks! #1 is my favorite, too!<br />&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593098 Mon, 14 Dec 2015 01:05:33 +0000 Angie 1593098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like <b>all </b>the renditions with the same tee. Nice! The pattern of the tee is great with your hair, Sharan. I'm going with #1 as my killer favourite.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593073 Sun, 13 Dec 2015 22:55:52 +0000 Karie 1593073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic outfits! And wow, you play the piano and sew (you know I don't mean at the same time, lol!)? You are so talented! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593054 Sun, 13 Dec 2015 22:12:20 +0000 Mirjana 1593054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All outfits are great to my mind, but my favorites are #1 ( because of gray suede booties ) and #5 ( like with ballet flats .). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593053 Sun, 13 Dec 2015 22:11:22 +0000 Anonymous 1593053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am in admiration of the outfits, colors and the print of your top. Of the piano recital three shoe choices, I'm leaning toward the last one as it looks dressier. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593049 Sun, 13 Dec 2015 22:07:29 +0000 CocoLion 1593049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They all work well. &nbsp;I like the outfit with both the booties in 1 and 2, and the flats in 3-5. &nbsp;I prefer the lower vamp flats in 3 and 5 though. &nbsp;The bottoms in 1 and 2-5 look similar on my screen but I'm sure they read differently IRL. &nbsp;I think burgundy is a great color on you including near your face. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593046 Sun, 13 Dec 2015 22:01:46 +0000 Peri 1593046@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look beautiful! I love that texty print..what I'm seeing that I love is color and pattern. Does it really say something?</p> <p>Yay for you for the recital!!! I have 4 adults and none of them will play in mine. I wish they would! What did you play? Ours was this past Friday.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-burgundy-gray#post-1593043 Sun, 13 Dec 2015 21:53:53 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1593043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie's ensemble: Burgundy, Eggplant &amp; Grey Accents has inspired me to try mixing some burgundies with eggplant shades. . . and these outfits are not quite in that realm. Those outfits will have to come later! </p> <p>Meanwhile, I wore these outfits, mixing harmonious shades of burgundy with gray and black, this weekend, for work and for a day off with a piano recital.</p> <p>The outfits:<br />1: Worn for a day off, pre-recital. Deep burgundy jeans, which I have referred to in the past as eggplant (Rag &amp; Bone, Dre); texty print tee in plum, mauve, burgundy, gray, black, and white (made by me); long dark burgundy (mix of burgundy and black yarns) boucle cardigan (Halogen); black belt with ornate buckle (Bed Stu); dangle silver bead earrings; gray suede booties (Paul Green, Delgado).</p> <p>2: Worn to teach sewing class. Light burgundy ankle pants (Loft); texty plum tee and long burgundy cardigan (as above); black belt; flat black booties (Munro, Lexie); silver pave jewelry (Lucky).</p> <p>3-5: Worn for piano recital (gotta have flat shoes to play). Trying out different combinations--outfit same as 2, but without the pendant, switched to a silver belt, and trying black loafers (Munro, Kimi), grey shimmer suede oxfords (Naot, Kedma), and mauve ballet flats with black cap toe (AGL). </p> <p>Thanks for looking! I appreciate any suggestions or feedback. I'm not sure yet which shoes I'll walk out the door in. It will be fun to hear your picks if you have favorites. </p>
