I think it's the bulk of the turtleneck that's making this an "almost, not quite" You're absolutely right, though, about being bold and experimenting! We can't stop having fun with fashion! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-winters-last-harrah#post-869398 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 21:42:07 +0000 Anonymous 869398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great idea to give winter a colorful sendoff. I think the red, turquoise and olive work as a color combination, in fact red and turquoise is my favorite, especially with cobalt or navy added. Your olive doesn't look as saturated as the other colors. A deeper or purer (less grey) olive might work even better. The shapes may be the problem.<br /> You look like such a great mom having fun with her little boy. He looks like he loves his puppies. You look superfab in the second outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-winters-last-harrah#post-869366 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 21:05:55 +0000 amiable 869366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Tina! I do have a good "pants" body - as long as they're long enough and straight through the waist and hips, they work for me. It's a good thing too, because I can't make a skirt work to save my life. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-winters-last-harrah#post-869347 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 20:59:43 +0000 Tina 869347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your body is just made for pants, I've yet to see you in an ill fitting pair. I think it's the shape of the top in 1 that is throwing you off. Agreeing with the others on 3/4, love it. I always smile when I see your little guy in the pics with you, such a sweetie.<br /> Your hair looks amazing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-winters-last-harrah#post-869313 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 20:43:04 +0000 amiable 869313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks rachy!</p> <p>Last time I wore aqua and olive together, I had a big debate with myself and commenters on whether the colors went together (I thought they didn't so much, commenters set me straight). Now I like the color combo - I wonder if adding red did me in? Or maybe the shapes don't play well together - that's more likely it.</p> <p>:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-winters-last-harrah#post-869301 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 20:38:35 +0000 rachylou 869301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gee, I liked the colors in 1-2! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-winters-last-harrah#post-869278 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 20:19:13 +0000 jayne 869278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amiable, </p> <p>I love the black and red outfit. You look sooo stylish</p> <p>The blue sweater seemed big? can that be right. It seemed to overwhelm you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-winters-last-harrah#post-869236 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 19:55:55 +0000 amyreh 869236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely love 3 and 4, the layering is so fun and I really like the colors together! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-winters-last-harrah#post-869188 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 19:08:00 +0000 amiable 869188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all! I dont' think the red-green-blue ALGO outfit worked very well either. But it doesn't bother me I'm experimenting and learning - I should expect a fairly high failure rate, right?</p> <p>I do enjoy 3/4 also - not quite as well as the first version of it (<a href="http://amiable.lookfab.com/post/wiw-scarf-day-2-and-a-belt">here</a>), I don't think, but it's warmer too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-winters-last-harrah#post-869144 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 18:41:33 +0000 Anonymous 869144@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>3/4 look great to me.</p> <p>1/2 I like the idea but I don't think the relative saturations are balanced enough. Or they are too close and need to be rejigged in order to make the disparity intentional instead of seeming accidental. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-winters-last-harrah#post-869141 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 18:35:54 +0000 Tina.b 869141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your 3/4 is brilliant, such a modern look. The pants are a great fit and the layering with the sweater and scarf is excellent. One of my favourites for you. I'm unsure about 1/2, perhaps it is the colours or something may be a bit off with the tuck. I am not a tucking expert by any stretch though. My confusion was very evident on my WIW yesterday. :)</p> <p>I love the direction your style is taking you. And I look forward to seeing your evolution continue through the spring and summer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-winters-last-harrah#post-869094 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 17:59:13 +0000 Kalli 869094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello amiable, don't you look cheerful with your son and that smile.</p> <p>I really adore your outfit in 3-4, the red-brown is a great color combo on you. </p> <p>However, I'm not really a big fan of the colors in 1-2. It's a bit much on my eyes :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-winters-last-harrah#post-869093 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 17:58:30 +0000 Suz 869093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great idea. And the bright colours really do perk a person up. I LOVE you in 3/4. And I love your little accessory, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-winters-last-harrah#post-869056 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 17:34:54 +0000 amiable 869056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>While Spring seems like an eternity in coming, I decided to follow Jill from goodlifeforless.blogspot.com's lead and re-enjoy some of my favorites from winter, and some things I wish I'd worn more.</p> <p>And since it's still frigid and I'm sooo cold, I'm piling on the layers.</p> <p>#1-2 sparkly aqua sweater with olive pants. I'd wanted to wear both of these piece more. So I put them with the leopard belt and burgundy boots. I was cold so I added the red jacket - it doesn't quite bookend the shoes, since they're not bright enough. And I think the combination - red, green, blue and leopard might be a bit ALGO.</p> <p>#3-4 red jeans with brown. I loved my red-brown outfit from a few weeks ago so much that I tried it again. This time with a longer brown short-sleeved sweater over the long-sleeved one. (It was warmer that way). I'm wearing the leopard belt again, but I see from the pics that my semi-tuck isn't high enough in the front to show it off.</p> <p>I'm also wearing my super-old tall brown boots with the wobbly heels. My ankles are getting stronger, and I'm not wobbling in them as badly as I used to. I think I'll keep these for a while yet. However, the longer short-sleeved sweater is pilly, and I think it'll get tossed unless a shaving rescues it.</p> <p>I think I'll keep this up the rest of the week - hold off on my spring items in favor of giving the winter ones a final loving.</p> <p>All feedback and suggestions welcome! </p>
