I tried it on the boots before I wore them but I don't really think I put enough for it to soak all the way through the leather... I do think it helped a bit but I definitely need to use more next time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-755290 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 15:01:18 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 755290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love, love love the boots (and entire outfit) in #2. I am a sucker for deep red patent boots and think they work with far more outfits than I would have imagined. I also think the dress in the first pic is very pretty on you and perhaps not in your usual style. very nice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-755274 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 14:48:56 +0000 Angie 755274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay, Diana! I'm glad that you kept the burgundy Docs! Try using that goo that I recommended in your thread about the boots to ease the stiffness. </p> <p>All outfits here are KILLER. My faves are #2 and #4 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-755270 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 14:45:11 +0000 Diana 755270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! I really liked the outfit with the Docs, am hoping they soften up soon so I can wear them for longer periods. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-755039 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 04:57:24 +0000 Caro in Oz 755039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 is my all-time favourite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-755019 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 04:16:52 +0000 Anonymous 755019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't get past those gorgeous burgundy boots to comment on anything else! I hope they get broken-in comfortable quickly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-755017 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 04:14:53 +0000 annagybe 755017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love #2 - #3, seriously cool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-755014 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 04:11:49 +0000 Jenava 755014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This may be your best set of outfits yet! That dress is HOT, and the rest of the outfits are really cool, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-754969 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 03:18:44 +0000 Deborah 754969@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brilliant combinations. The retro dress is stunning and you have the most gorgeous figure:). The Docs look really good, I trust they soften and get more wearable quickly.<br /> And the earthy tones are different but still really nice on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-754947 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 02:57:24 +0000 Makrame 754947@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! I especially like #2-3 and 4-5 because I think I could copycat these looks, and the colors are so rich and fall-like. The dress in #1 is very flattering, and the retro-tough vibe is fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-754946 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 02:56:23 +0000 JulieJohn 754946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look terrific! I like the burgundy, it sings. And 4-5 is really nice, congrats for stepping outside your black comfort zone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-754944 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 02:52:58 +0000 Day Vies 754944@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thumbs up on the docs -- very cute. I have always liked the colored ones better.</p> <p>The dress in # 1 is on you such a great fit! I like the contrast with the boots. </p> <p>My favorite is #5 only because of my personal preference for jackets to "complete" outfits. My preference aside, I truly enjoyed the added depth, color and texture your jacket provides outfit #5. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-754931 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 02:30:10 +0000 Karie 754931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All the outfits look wonderful! I too will be stopping back for some denim-with-boots inspiration :)<br /> Love #2 with the socks peeking out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-754926 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 02:24:27 +0000 pil 754926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the pink socks peeking out of those fab burgundy Docs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-754902 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 02:03:12 +0000 Jaime 754902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The burgundy top is such a good color on you, and I love it with the docs. I also love the scarf and grey top in #4 and the leather jacket looks great with it. And the dress is a hit too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-754897 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 01:57:00 +0000 krishnidoux 754897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look good in all of this but #1! This dress! It looks SOOOO lovely on you. And with the boots, so cool. I agree with Shannon, #2 and #5 are also to die for. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-754895 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 01:55:43 +0000 rae 754895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love ALL of these, Diana! I am coming back to this post for some denim-with-boot inspiration. The burgundy is keeeeelling me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-754891 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 01:53:48 +0000 Transcona Shannon 754891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 and #5 are making me smile big time Diana! Those burgundy Docs are just gorgeous on you and I love the colour palette in #5. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-retro-dress-funky-boots-burgundy-boyfriend-earth-tones#post-754884 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 01:49:28 +0000 Diana 754884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1: Wore this last Friday 10.19.12 to lab and then to a great concert by the US Marine Corps Band at Boston's Symphony Hall. I paired my retro style jersey dress with my tall, funky lace-up boots. It was warm enough to forego the tights. </p> <p>Tulle dress, Steve Madden boots, Gap bracelet.</p> <p>2/3: Worn on Saturday 10.20.12. I started the day in my new burgundy Docs. This was their first outing and I was expecting that they would need some breaking in. The socks were necessary as the tops are quite stiff right now. I wore them to go run errands in the morning for about 2 hours on my feet, and my feet fared OK although I was definitely feeling the stiffness of the boots by the end. Did not push my luck, and changed into my oxfords for the rest of the day. Also added a scarf. </p> <p>Gap sexy BF jeans and belt, ??? top, Doc Marten Clemency boots, Born Arletta oxfords, Zara scarf.</p> <p>4/5: Worn to lab today 10.22.12. I decided to go for a different-for-me neutral earthy palette today. Olives, browns, beiges, and blues. It's a departure for me to have no black in my outfit (the scarf is navy). </p> <p>Anthro blouse, Vince jeans, Rieker Remonte Dorndorf boots, Oakwood leather jacket, handknit scarf, and MZ Wallace bag. </p>
