LOVE. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie/page/2#post-746705 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 19:59:39 +0000 CocoLion 746705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Mr. Kellygirl for giving me a good laugh. If that were coming from my DBF I would take that as a compliment!</p> <p>This is exactly the kind of moto I am looking for! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie/page/2#post-746697 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 19:53:38 +0000 kellygirl 746697@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Shannon, Aida, Jonesy, MNsara, Kiwichik, Lisa and Kim! After thinking on this, I will try a shorter sweater or top underneath next time. Your comments are not going unheard :)<br /> @Aida: Lol!<br /> @Jonesy: I want to see the spotted Docs in action!<br /> @Lisa: You make a good point.<br /> @Kim: Refinement is good. Honestly, I’m pretty happy with an 8 though. I don’t like to hit them out of the ballpark too often. Sets the bar too high </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie/page/2#post-746296 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 14:11:00 +0000 Queen Mum 746296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly- you always look great! I do agree with some of the others though that this would be even better with a more sweater underneath. I'm wanting to see just a tad bit more refinement here... and that would probably take this outfit up one more notch. To my eye this outfit is at about an 8 and I think it has potential to be a 9+ or 10 with just a bit of refining. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie/page/2#post-746256 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 13:38:57 +0000 Lisa 746256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this outfit, but I'd love to see this remixed with a turtleneck or some knit that is more form fitting and not as long. This way the jacket is even more the star of the outfit instead of sharing the spotlight with the tunic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie/page/2#post-746138 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 09:27:06 +0000 Kiwichik 746138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the jacket &amp; no you do not look like the scary soccer mum you look like the stylish, youthful soccer mum. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie/page/2#post-745954 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 01:48:11 +0000 MNsara 745954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great husband comment - and I'd take it as a compliment! I love the soft plum color under the jacket too.</p> <p>I'd also like to see it with a similar sweater underneath that is just maybe 4-5 inches lower than the jacket hem - just to see what difference it might make. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie#post-745930 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 01:17:11 +0000 Jonesy 745930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this looks fab, totally fine re. age (high five, fellow 45-er!!), and stylish! I wore my spootted Docs to a cross country meet today, and felt quite fab (and comfy) :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie#post-745888 Fri, 12 Oct 2012 00:48:37 +0000 Aida 745888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep, totally need to pass that immature jacket onto me LOVE this outfit on you Kelly (SWEET jacket)! I think the not-super-tough boots work fabulously here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie#post-745830 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 23:57:39 +0000 Transcona Shannon 745830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DH's sometimes don't get the look but they'll come around!</p> <p>I think you look fab Kelly and really like the jacket. I wouldn't mind seeing something a little lighter and shorter underneath though, but this is good too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie#post-745798 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 23:28:15 +0000 kellygirl 745798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for all of the nice comments! I’m glad that I don’t have to retire this jacket yet:)<br /> @Jules: Thank you for the styling idea! I agree that this jacket it a little heavy looking but it is just right for layering under.<br /> @Inge: Lol! Thanks.<br /> @Anna: Thanks for pointing out Angie’s pin. I love that look. I wish my leg line was long enough to get away with those cool high tops! Also good to know that slightly oversized is on trend--I was wondering if it looked dated.<br /> @RunnerRae, k can shop, Janet, Alicat, Joy, Makrame, Kate, Cathy, rachylou, MaryK, krishnidoux, Shedev, Suz, and dianthus: Thank you!<br /> @Scarlet: Ooh, thank you! It’s funny because when I looked at the picture I thought it had a very Scarlet look.<br /> @Malina and pil: I’m laughing because DH is alluding to how it does fit my personality (at times.) Don’t let the lack of a scowl fool you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie#post-745706 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 21:43:39 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 745706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks great. Now if you had heavy studded boots, you might look like you were ready to kick butt but the jacket over that pretty deep pink is just right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie#post-745693 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 21:16:36 +0000 Suz 745693@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Go forth in 40-something fabulosity!!! I love it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie#post-745688 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 21:08:39 +0000 shedev 745688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>to me this jacket is a clasic. I've had one forever. I dont like to wear mine with tops that are quite that long. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie#post-745687 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 21:07:40 +0000 Ariadne 745687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great and I'm going to copy it tomorrow! So there </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie#post-745686 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 21:06:33 +0000 pil 745686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! but you need to scowl if you're going to kick some bootie. You look too nice : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie#post-745682 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 20:58:56 +0000 Mo 745682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it is totally appropriate - perhaps he is alluding to it not fitting your personality (as he sees it)?? I know there are times my BF turns his nose up at a look (hello red moto zip jeans with sequin tank) and says it's like an older lady trying too hard, but in reality it just seems incongruent with my disposition. Does that make sense?<br /> For me, my leather jacket choices have either been the biker style in a ladylike color (blush) or the black color in a softer style (shearling ruffle collar). This suits my personality better. I am not a black biker jacket kind of gal. And that's okay.<br /> I like this on you. Do you feel like 'you' in it? Then go forth and be fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie#post-745681 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 20:58:04 +0000 MsMary 745681@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! And I think "45 year old soccer mom you don't want to mess with" is a fantastic look to which to aspire!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie#post-745679 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 20:56:01 +0000 annagybe 745679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the slightly oversized fit. It's on trend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie#post-745678 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 20:54:12 +0000 krishnidoux 745678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This jacket is not intimidating at all. However I agree that a more fitted one might be more proportioned with your delicate body. I like this outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-kick-some-bootie#post-745675 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 20:47:26 +0000 MsMary 745675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing!
