I am getting lighter and lighter as I age (gray hair dyed blonde equals light), pale skin from obssessive sunscreen usage. I just realized the black was aging me and was just as "loud" as wearing a bright color! You're doing really good! I love your velvet pants from Inc. I love the Inc. stuff! I ordereed two<BR/>GREAT sweaters from the men's dept at J.Crew, they came today...One was only 19.99 and is cotton and cashmere. It's my "boyfriend" cardigan in a soft robin's egg blue with dark brown buttons. I feel like a champ! You're really good at shopping on a budget, and I like what you do with your pieces!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640489454405982637.post-56312198045713820762008-12-28T17:32:00.000-08:002008-12-28T17:32:00.000-08:00Thanks Karen, and I don't mind you saying that at ...Thanks Karen, and I don't mind you saying that at all :) I actually rarely wear just black because I am so very fair I think it does wash me out. But every once in a while I just sort of go for it anyway, lol. <BR/><BR/>I think another way I could wear the black dress is either with a colored scarf or even a bold necklace in better colors for me -- what do you think?Kayleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15347199277007746114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640489454405982637.post-20059947541318224482008-12-28T15:02:00.000-08:002008-12-28T15:02:00.000-08:00Kayleigh, I like the two printed dresses on you ve...Kayleigh, I like the two printed dresses on you very much! The colors are right for your coloring. Can I just say though, that I don't really like black on you. I hope you don't mind my saying that. Maybe you could wear a softer color up by your face when you wear black on top?

Thanks so much :)<BR/><BR/>Aside from these dresses the only other thing I've ordered from Chadwicks is a denim jacket -- which I really LOVE...it's cut nicely yet still looks enough like a traditional jean jacket, you know? (here's a link to a post where you can see me wearing the jacket: http://fashionably-later.blogspot.com/2008/11/testing_10.html )<BR/><BR/>Anyway, the dresses seem decent quality too, I mean, they are a polyester blend so not quite a "fancy" material as fabrics go, lol, but they don't appear badly made. At the price point I think they are totally worth it, IMO.<BR/><BR/>HTH & thanks again! :)Kayleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15347199277007746114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640489454405982637.post-17545358371657987842008-12-24T12:11:00.000-08:002008-12-24T12:11:00.000-08:00That dress, in every color, looks terrific on you....That dress, in every color, looks terrific on you.

I'm going to experiment with it as a neck piece first but I suspect based on the original pix that look just doesn't work on me so I think your idea might just be the ticket. Never would have thought of that, you are so clever :)<BR/><BR/>Thanks again you two!Kayleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15347199277007746114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640489454405982637.post-67312117051108839752008-12-23T18:09:00.000-08:002008-12-23T18:09:00.000-08:00I clicked on the picture and spotted the purple ti...I clicked on the picture and spotted the purple tights right away - great outfit! That plum is a super color on you. <BR/><BR/>What about re-using the fur trim as fur cuffs on an old sweater? I have a pair of black faux fur detatchable wrist cuffs - they look great with a long-sleeved turtleneck.Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07735339885677950350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640489454405982637.post-56914528780593932952008-12-23T16:52:00.000-08:002008-12-23T16:52:00.000-08:00My fav is the green print too and I LOVE it with t...My fav is the green print too and I LOVE it with the purple cardi!

I'd been wearing an outfit w/plum tights & decided to have DH take the photo of the green dress. I'd forgotten the dress was short enough for my knees to show. When I saw the color combo I added the necklace...then the cardi. Voila! An outfit was born :D<BR/><BR/>Don't ya just love it when that happens?Kayleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15347199277007746114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640489454405982637.post-65339766987229133822008-12-23T12:41:00.000-08:002008-12-23T12:41:00.000-08:00I also love the green and plum!
