Back from alterations and a few WIWs

My jacket was done earlier than expected. I love it. Thanks for talking me into it The in store photo just didn't do it justice so I'm sharing it again--altered. I do think the leopard accents will make it easier for me to wear than my plain black one--not as much hard edge. As much as I love summer dressing, I'm kind of looking forward to some cooler weather. Adding some recent WIWs--still weeding out the chaff so I'm trying to be better about photographing outfits. I tried Christy's tube skirt and graphic tee look which I love. I do think it needs a bit of tweaking--lmk if you have any suggestions. Thanks for looking. (Adding photos from my phone in a bit.)

Love it! It's perfect for you I think I'd like the tube skirt outfit with the denim vest over, but the last dress and cobalt/black are my favorites!

All of your outfits look great, and the jacket looks wonderful. I wonder if the tube skirt outfit would work even better with a graphic tee in a slightly drapier fabric.

These all look great but the last dress,that is fabulous on you.

Another great week of outfits ℅ Madame Kelly . My only thought re the tube skirt and t-shirt is that the t looks a little big on you. Sized down it would look terrific

Thanks so much!
@Suntiger: Those are my faves too. I wear the cobalt one probably once a week! It's so easy and makes me happy. The floral is a BR sundress to replace a Gap one that had seen better days.
@Erin: Thanks! I wish I had sized down in that tee. It's super soft though--I may try to alter it a bit.
@cardiffgirl: Thanks! It's a fave.
@lisap: You crack me up. I'm going to try again with a smaller tee.

A wonderful set of outfits.

Such great dresses, wow! All outfits are perfection on you, and the jacket looks like it was made for you! I am still waffling about mine... I don't really need it as I already have a couple of leather jackets. And in my case I am worried that the different prints will make it a bit harder to wear (will I need to build my outfits starting from the jacket?). What to do, what to do...

The jacket couldn't be more perfect. WOW. KILLER to the Power of KILLER. Matches your hair!

You in that strappy slip dress is mega yumminess! WOW. Soooo pretty.

Perhaps a less oversized tee with the tube skirt?

The jacket is gorgeous and I love the fit. All of your outfits are fantastic. Perhaps a drapier (is that a word?) or less oversized tee would be better.

Jacket looks fab! Perfect for you with your hair and softer than plain black. Outfits are great, but that last dress is really pretty...shows off your toned arms, too. You're motivating me to lift heavier weights!

The leopard accents definitely make this jacket. Great outfits all around!

So glad you bought the beautiful jacket, it is stunning on you. I love the summer dresses which are so pretty on you. Enjoy the warm sunny weather.

That jacket is perfect on you! I love your easy summer looks; I wish I liked summer dressing. I say bring on the cooler temps so I can wear jackets again!

Yummy jacket. Did Nordies do the sleeve alteration for you?

Thanks, Fabbers! I'm thrilled with the jacket and still enjoying summer dressing. I have found that loose knits are my favorite. I have to force myself to wear anything with a zipper.
@joy: Thanks!
@Aqua: Lol. Thanks! Glad to help motivate!
@Angie: Thank you. BR for the win!
@karie: Thanks! It's great to see you again!
@shevia, Bijou, JP: Thank you!
@Susie: haha. Yes, bring on fall, but in a few months...
@chouette: I'm thinking the jacket is neutral enough that I'm not going to be planning outfits around it. Honestly though, my fall/winter wardrobe is so neutral dominant (plain) that I don't think it will be an issue anyway.
@Bj: Yes, Nordies charged $35 for the alteration.

Kel- awesomeness! The jacket is so unique and so, so perfect for you.
Your boyfriends and boots once again are your signature look. And I join the chorus on your slip dress. You look gorgeous.

You look gorgeous Kelly! What brilliant outfits. I love you super chic style. The jacket is a knockout. Perfection, love the leopard details especially. So fun with the white sleeveless shirt combined with the cool jeans and belt and the pearl bracelet, love it. And the bold blue striped dress with the denim vest is excellent. What a treat to see all these great creative outfits.

That jacket is awesome on you! Love it! You have such great style, Kelly. I love the simple black tee and jeans outfit and the last two dresses look soooo good on you!

Once again I am in awe of your way of putting neutrals and textures together, and it's fun to see you with the print dress too. Everything looks amazing on you. Love the white tops especially, with your coloring.
The leopard accents on the jacket make it special. I bet you will be very happy with that beautiful jacket. Yay!
