Am at a loss as to how to find a new stylist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-783571 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 05:11:04 +0000 bj1111 783571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love the hair. and the sandals. and the dress. and the tights. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-783087 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 18:02:02 +0000 catgirl 783087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is the one way I like stockings and sandals - with a dress, with clog-like sandals (rather than a peep-toe). In other words, I love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-783071 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 17:49:20 +0000 rachylou 783071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks you guys for the compliments! I am glad I got this dress. Have to be careful not to wear it out! I like your description of it, krishnidoux... I wouldn't mind saving that as a generalized style goal "feminine but not constrictive," if you don't mind! :D</p> <p>...Js, I have to be careful. With my contrary nature, I'm gonna start wanting to wear that '70s look of suntan hose and summery sandals... and a Dorothy Hamil haircut. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782861 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 11:31:07 +0000 krishnidoux 782861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So cool! And may I comment on how beautiful you are! This sandal+stockings look works for you because you chose very awesome baby blue to contrast with both dark stockings AND a red dress, here is the genius of it to my point of view. This dress is also fantastic on you, both in cut and colour. It compliments your hair, and the shape is feminine yet not constrictive. Beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782853 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 10:59:45 +0000 Jjsloane 782853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you pulled it off beautifully. I was worried I'd be seeing suntan tights and super summery sandals. This is just right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782851 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 10:04:36 +0000 rute 782851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this look! I wear opaque hose with sandals a lot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782850 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 10:02:50 +0000 Asingh 782850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Red looks great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782562 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 23:44:19 +0000 kellygirl 782562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this. Red is your color. I'm surprised at how much I like the look of sandals with hosiery. It looks great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782518 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 22:54:18 +0000 Anonymous 782518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this look -- I can't do stockings and sandals myself but it looks great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782511 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 22:44:30 +0000 annagybe 782511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love sandals with socks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782508 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 22:38:44 +0000 Caro in Oz 782508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Crab on any day sounds good to me. I have poison eye for tights &amp; open toes but you just changed my mind:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782465 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 21:56:48 +0000 cciele 782465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the look! It's a simple outfit at its core but has a lot of interesting touches (color, drape, sandals with the tights) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782464 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 21:56:44 +0000 rachylou 782464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh hey wow! I feel like I've achieved something here! A killer from Angie, approval for the hated combo, and then funk-a-licious *almost* conservative and demure... that's what I really want for my style. To somehow get "off" to be OK. Lol.</p> <p>Appreciate the boosts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782451 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 21:33:52 +0000 Sara L. 782451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the tights and sandal look the way you've done it here. I think a substantial sandal, like you have on, can work really well with tights. I may have to give it a try myself some time this winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782370 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 19:57:32 +0000 rae 782370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I find sandals with stockings uncomfortable myself, but this looks great on you. Love that red! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782343 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 19:15:47 +0000 Angie 782343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chiming in with sore arm just to say how KILLER you look!! *Wow*</p> <p>(No sandal and stocking hate from me either. I like the look! You have got it down, Rachy). </p> <p>Crab on Turkey Day sounds like a jolly good idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782339 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 18:58:38 +0000 JR 782339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the red dress! :o) It suits you really well, both in colour and in silhouette.</p> <p>I don't mind the tights and sandals look the way you've pulled it off here. I'm not sure if I'm comfortable with these three colours together though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782321 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 18:47:01 +0000 Transcona Shannon 782321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Funny - I always thought the stocking with sandals look was hideous and dated - but on you Rachy, it's funk-a-licious!!! Love this outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782314 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 18:43:01 +0000 Claudia 782314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely dress and color on you. I am pro stocking/sandals, so no hate from me.</p> <p>My New England family is very pro turkey on Thanksgiving, there'd be rioting in the dining room otherwise, but also being coastal New Englanders -- crab is really good, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782298 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 18:24:06 +0000 Suz 782298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your outfits are as much fun as you are. And you ROCK the sandals with tights look! </p> <p>You also look stunning in this shade of red. </p> <p>This outfit is so interesting. On the surface, and at first, it IS *almost* conservative and demure. But then it has that rachylou kick to it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-thanksgiving---hated-stockings-with-sandals#post-782295 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 18:18:30 +0000 rachylou 782295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hehe. Yes, I did. I wore the hated stockings with sandals look for Thanksgiving.</p> <p>I also told my bf that I could dress conservatively. I don't think he was reassured.</p> <p>It was a very nice Thanksgiving. It was going to be a reduced gathering, but it was a full house in the end. Also, I came to terms that we were going to eat crab once again and have no turkey. Told myself, it *is* the open of crab season, so there's a certain appropriateness there. Not much, but a little ;&gt; </p>
