  I like both these outfits and think you look great. I go through phases where I'm not that interesting in color too.  I think it's just part of where you are right now.

  These are both beautiful and rich outfits! I think you are succeeding brilliantly in your mission.

  I dunno, that green dress you just wore the other day was bright and colorful and spectacular! 
  
  This looks great too. Now I want a map bag. :-D

  Both of these look good to me!

  Hey, are you really allowed to wear huaraches to work?

  I like the richness of the teal and rust together.  Photo 4 is interesting:  you're coming at us right through the screen!  Nails look nice!  : )

  I'm stuck on the bag. LOVE it.

  All of this hurache love - I was a hurache girl once upon a time!
  
  I think you look fabulous Rae. I'm glad you're figuring out a "blended" style that works for you and work.

  Love the map bag! The rest of your outfit looks fab too.

  Well, I also swing between color and neutrals on a regular basic (it was a black and white day today) so I can understand this really well.
  I like the both outfits but the first one with trousers has my heart: I really must be off skinnies at the moment and prefer trousers every time. I think these trousers look very elegant on you together with the rough denim jacket.

  I swing between colour and neutrals all the time! Daily :)
  
  I LOVE the first outfit more because I am digging the new sophisticated Rae!

  great outfits Rae, and great color (or lack of) combinations.  Love the map bag!

  So fab! I like both outfits a lot, but I think the bag wins out over all!

  If this is classic - then I'm all for it! Quite honestly, I am really enjoying the new direction your style has taken. You are looking amazing these days, and while I realize it's a bit of a condundrum to re-configure your style for the new workplace - you have come up with something that's ten times better than "the usual" if that makes sense. Better than classic, and better than UWP/casual-ish. There is something very special and fab going on here, and I really like it.
  
  I can't quite put my finger on it (in terms of describing your new style), but I can say that I definitely think it's something requiring special YLF crash helmets, smelling salts and the like. For the past several weeks (maybe months now), every time I look at one of your outfits posts, I am *wowed*.
  
  While it's true that your style might be moving in a bit of a different direction - it's *also* true that you are looking like a million bucks these days. The new 'polished' UWP/classic you is better than ever.
  
  Jaw-droppingly fabulous.

  I think outfit #1 fits the bill for your mix of rugged/classic for work perfectly. Outfit #2 is nice too but I prefer 1. That bag is fantastic.

  FWIW I love your muted  colour palette and I think you have forged great looks for work which still show your personality. That bag is fab also :)

  I'm so impressed with how you are figuring out how to work your current items into your new job and dressing requirements. These both look fabulous Rae.
• Freckles replied 10 years ago
  I know these aren't examples of the way you would really like to dress but you look absolutely stunning Rae!  Even though your UWP style is the complete opposite of me I find that I often really admire som the items in your outfits and could see them in mine.  That map bag has always been a favourite.
