The colours are beautiful, and while adore your taupes, it's lovely to see you in these colours for a change. The boots look fine to me. I personally love a square toe. A square toe always looks a bit alternate to me:). Great look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia/page/2#post-843005 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 08:25:42 +0000 lyn67 843005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, you should reach for this more often, it look G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S. on you, esp with the fuchsia jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia/page/2#post-842955 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 06:55:33 +0000 Kiwichik 842955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous dress works really well with the fuchsia jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia/page/2#post-842838 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 03:16:06 +0000 Suz 842838@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Day Vies. </p> <p>I'm actually a real dress and skirt lover from way back...sort of like Shannon, and Angie, too, for that matter. But also like them, I seem to wear trousers more often this year, partly because it's a trousers year and partly because I now work from home so pants feel more practical. </p> <p>I probably look like "me" because I still like and feel comfortable in dresses and don't feel at all costumed. Especially in one like this, which is basically as cozy as a pair of pyjamas! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842834 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 03:12:38 +0000 Day Vies 842834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't notice that the boots were "dated" I still don't this is a gorgeous outfit. I think it's the first one I've seen of you in a dress. I love the colors and fit on you.<br /> You still look very much like you -- not at all like you are trying on a look even though I associate you and your "look" with trousers. Interesting... I have to think on that some more. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842800 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 02:45:43 +0000 Suz 842800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know...sometimes a person gets lucky, eh? That jacket is a $20 H&amp;M find. </p> <p>I have to admit it looks cheaper in person. But it's super comfy (being knit) and I just love the fun zippered pockets and the cropped length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842767 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 02:11:57 +0000 Caro in Oz 842767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful - I really love that jacket on you - colour, fit everything is wonderful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842760 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 02:03:30 +0000 Jaime 842760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This dress looks marvelous on you! I think you need to promote these colors to heavy hitters. I did not notice the boots as dated and you really look fabulous all around. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842738 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 01:37:43 +0000 Mona 842738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look radiant in fuschia and what beautiful dress.

That jacket was made for the dress. I wear mine with a burgundy </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842576 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 23:13:08 +0000 Freckles 842576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look so lovely Suz, perfect for a family dinner out. </p> <p>I think I noticed in some of your threads that your now interested in a more refined/lady like boot. Perhaps it is that which makes you feel these are dated although they are not. I could be out in left field though... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842572 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 23:10:05 +0000 catherine 842572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely, as you always do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842564 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 23:03:41 +0000 Raisin 842564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's like the blazer was made for that dress! Looks great. And to me the boots look great too, not dated. But I'm not too sensitive to toe shape (except super pointy, just don't care for it) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842428 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 20:57:55 +0000 Anonymous 842428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A lovely concoction of cranberry and fuschia tones! So glad square toes are coming back my black boots are still going strong too You look fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842418 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 20:50:51 +0000 nancylee 842418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, yes, pointy toes are trending...but so are square toes, apparently.. After my pointy toe vs. almond toe confusion I did some YLF research on the topic and uncovered this little-known fact. Who knew?!</p> <p> I'm on the road right now and have limited computer capabilities so I can't post links....but Angie did a post on this within the last year. If you search "square-toe" on the blog or forum you'll find the articles. </p> <p>The new square toes are less exaggerated than in the 90's apparently, so I think yours are good to go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842408 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 20:40:15 +0000 Carole 842408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such a beautiful combo, Suz! I really think the boots look great, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842404 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 20:33:47 +0000 Sarah A 842404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just wanted to say you look amazing in this! I actually like the square toe boots. The fit on the leg is nice </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842403 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 20:32:11 +0000 Suz 842403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nancylee, you are sweet. I think it was POINTY toes, though! </p> <p>Oh well. I am wearing these for this season anyway. </p> <p>Thank you all for the nice comments. It was good to do the dress challenge even for a few days! It really *is* a challenge for me this year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842390 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 20:20:35 +0000 nancylee 842390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in this, Suz. That dress fits you beautifully and seems like it would be very useful. Sleeves and warm!</p> <p>I MIGHT be imagining this, but think Angie might have said that square toes are starting to trend? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842353 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 19:42:33 +0000 merwoman 842353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>what a lovely combiination - you look beautiful! And there is that workhouse jacket just looking fab with every wear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842339 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 19:35:39 +0000 Anonymous 842339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love everything about this outfit on you, but especially the soft print and colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842333 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 19:31:59 +0000 Angie 842333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ladylike Prince Suz. I'm loving it, Queen Cranberry! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842324 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 19:26:54 +0000 jayne 842324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>yeah! Suz in a dress! Love the dress, pretty colors and pattern and then the jacket is perfect! And I love the boots with it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842302 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 19:09:36 +0000 Mochi 842302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have Franco Sarto boots with a square toe, and I don't find them dated at all. You look fantastic, as usual. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842300 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 19:06:06 +0000 Transcona Shannon 842300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The fuschia jacket works perfectly over this dress Suz and I don't think the boots look dated at all. I would say they're a fairly classic design - besides, sometimes comfort takes precedent.</p> <p>And I totally hear you about not reaching for dresses as much - I think we've been having fun experimenting with the various trouser silhouettes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842262 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 18:26:53 +0000 Vicki 842262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, you look stylish and cozy, which is perfect for your part of the world at this time of year. The fuchsia jacket is ideal with your Cassis dress and, btw, I see nothing dated about the boots. Hope you had fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842261 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 18:26:22 +0000 Suz 842261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you! </p> <p>The dress is a sort of faux wrap. really, it's just the ties and the slight ruching that make it wrap-like. There's no crossover. I actually had it altered a bit. The skirt was more of an A-line when I bought it and I had it tapered to a more pencil shape. It looked great on Kari and Celia as is. </p> <p>It's made of a really soft warm fabric, so is definitely a winter dress. And it has SLEEVES!</p> <p>And you are right, Pil - I gave the jacket a few weeks' rest in my closet and now it seems more fun to wear again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842259 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 18:25:38 +0000 pil 842259@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pattern and colors of the dress are so pretty with this jacket. Have you *not* worn the jacket enough recently that you aren't as tired of it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-waving-to-kari-celia#post-842250 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 18:21:13 +0000 Tina.b 842250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, this is so your colour! The dress is gorgeous, is it a wrap? Fits you perfectly. And the boots look really good with it. I need to try this look more often myself. </p>
