Scarf, white sweater and boots, flared skirt

#1 - Denim shirt and burgundy pants. My sister's comment was "Two colors in one outfit!"

#2 - New white sweater with floral jeans and white boots.

#3 - Grey sweater, skinny jeans, and white boots.

#4 - I'm not sure about this outfit. I don't usually tuck my shirts but this flared skirt needs a tucked in shirt or something short and structured, which I don't have. I don't really like the way it looks but I'm not sure if that's because I'm not used to seeing myself with a tucked top or if there is a problem with proportions. Tights and boots are navy, same as the skirt.

Thanks for looking and any comments or suggestions are more than welcome.

I like the last and dont think the proportions look off at all, probably because the boots and tights make a column of color. With bare legs it would seem choppier.
Love the white booties!

Very cute outfits! My favorite is 3 and 4, love the grey dolman sleeve sweater. The scarf and white boots compliment it nicely. I think 5 looks okay as is, but you might like it better with a third piece like a denim jacket or vest and possibly changing to ankle boots so the horizontal lines of the waist, hem, and top of boots are not too close to each other.

You always put together such great outfits, Sara. I really love the grey sweater, scarf and white booties look . I don't think there is anything wrong with the top tucked into the skirt, but I do agree that a shorter bootie would give you a little more "leg". Maybe a lower-contrast top would be a more comfortable way to ease yourself into the look ?

All fab! The skirt with red top looks especially nice, for February Valentines month. I think the fit and tuck is perfect and your eye may be skewed just because of the way the print meets at the waistband seam. I suspect in motion not one person would even take notice. Put it out of your mind! ❤️

Nothing wrong with #5. Proportions work just fine.

Love the dolman sweater and scarf combo. The total look is great.

Grey sweater, white boots is my favorite. Not sure why but maybe shorter or scrunched sleeves would look more balanced in the last outfit - although it looks good as is to my eye.

Thanks everyone for the advice on the last outfit. It seems like it probably is just that my eye is not used to the look. I also like the idea of a lower contrast top (I'm pretty sure I have a navy blue top that will work) and trying different boots. Something to play with this winter as I get more and more bored of my usual outfit combinations.

It all looks good to me! Your assessment of the last one just above my comment is a good one - the outfit looks good to my eye and I think you might get used to those proportions. Those white booties really work for you, too.
