I agree that the colour is not quite bright enough for your hair and skin but your accessories punch it up. Have you checked out Dressing Your Truth to find out the perfect styles and colours for your "type"? <br />Because you look amazing in black and white you might be a type 4. <br />I dyed two coats last week. One came out great but the other was destroyed. <br />I wouldn't risk it with something you just made out of gorgeous fabric but <br />you could consider it for some other clothes you no longer like. Thanks for sharing. I'm off to find this pattern.

The dropped shoulder goes out at least 6 inches beyond my real shoulder edge, so it may just weigh down any padding.Ann Brodskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08893522256894299340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2990612353550273255.post-50588257623607452812012-11-21T20:17:27.242-06:002012-11-21T20:17:27.242-06:00The luscious feel of this wool coat comes through ...The luscious feel of this wool coat comes through in the pictures. It does look like fabulous fabric. I'm wondering about the shoulder pads used. I struggle with shoulder pads in a lot of my sewing so maybe that's just where my eye goes now. But I'm wondering if you would like it more with a more aggressive shoulder.<br /><br />I do think the color is lovely, and will work with lots of different *pop* colors. The blue is a good pop.Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09815988914005580044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2990612353550273255.post-75719078026243097582012-11-21T08:41:38.591-06:002012-11-21T08:41:38.591-06:00I think your kind words are having an effect on me...I think your kind words are having an effect on me because I am liking it more and more this morning!
