Latest wig + outfit - YouLookFab Forum

This is Dahlia from Mimosa Sensitivity in Dark Gold Blonde. This is a more accessible line, with cost friendly wigs geared at caucasians.

Although I dig both the cut and the color separately, I was bummed out to discover upon opening it from the box that this one wasn't the immediate love I had expected. Mainly because the long hair + bangs combined with a lighter blonde is almost too yougish looking to my eye; with more conservative clothes, it doesn't look right. Or, maybe it makes me thing too much of my own hair when I was youngish!

However, I think I have found a way to work with her in this very casual style, with the cropped jeans+tee+leather jacket combo. I am surprised by this top, bought in an athletic store. It has gray sleeves, but something about the fabric and the cut is just right, in a very casual kind of way. Both of my leather motos go well with it. I'll have to wait another couple of months in my climate to comfortably wear this outfit, can't wait!

What do you think?

Pics 1-4 below, two variations of the same outfit formula.

Pic 5: As a means of comparison, the same wig with a more conservative outfit (can you see how it makes me almost too young looking?)

Pic 6: The same Dahlia wig only in a different color (auburn)

Pic 7: The same color on a different wig from the same line (Sunflower).

Hello. I haven't visited the forum much so this is the first I'm reading and seeing about your gorgeous wigs. I think all three look fantastic on you. In picture 1 you look like you are in your 20s! You are making me want to explore wigs because my hair is slowly thinning. When I was a child in the 60s wigs were popular as a fashion item, my sister and I wanted one badly. Have you come across any on line favorite sites?

CocoLion, I can only encourage you, because it's so fun and it's also a second life of hairstyles and exploration.

You have to try a luxury wig today to realize that it has nothing to do with what our moms wore, and that it feels so light you forget you have it on, a bit like a bra. It can truly enhance your hair situation (I'm talking generally, CocoLion, not personnally, as I remember you with the most gorgeous mane. But you might want to explore without having to cut or color it).

One thinks hair will take space under the wig: no, not that much. These wigs are made so you can try a short style, even a pixie, while keeping your long hair. Below are me in various pixies, when my natural bio hair is now shoulder length (pic 1-3).

It's amazing to me how fantastic you look in all these different cuts, colors, and lengths! I can't even pick a favorite! How wonderful to be able to be so versatile.

I like the new one but of course you have to feel comfortable with it.

its incredible how changing the wig changes how you look....

for what its worth, I don't think #5 makes you look younger than #1-4...
