Bae SuJi 배수지 (Suzy 수지)

   When the snow flies as it does in January, we need warmth and style. Here Suzy 수지 has done just that. Although I wouldn’t want to be caught in a storm with this outfit, it works well for everyday travel. It has a nice bright color with pockets for hand warming. The shoulder flares break up the line of the arm/shoulder area and blends well with the collar to give a pleasant look to the top of the coat. The front buttons probably secure an overlap with concealed zipper which closes the lower half without having an undue amount of buttons. The bag also works well with this outfit. The long shoulder strap allows her to keep her hands warm while giving the style that goes with the jacket. The darker shade of browns in the bag against the lighter tan of the jacket gives the set contrast but stays within a color scheme. Very well done, Suzy. 

  Next we have her wearing a very intriguing evening gown. Firstly, strapless can be a challenge. Either being too revealing for some and others would have difficulties holding it up. In this case it works just fine! I like the under-skirt with the full length lace, it is unusual. It gives both cover for her legs while at the same time revealing her legs. The simple bracelet and earrings finish the look while keeping in the realm elegant. Again, very well done.

   Now, for those long winter nights and the inevitable snuggling or whenever you want to pull your man from the television try this outfit. Speaking from a man's point of view, it’s not always about skin. Here we have plenty of skin with the string straps and sleeveless arms. The form fitting cut gives us the hour glass shape we love. The soft color whether it’s pink or any other as long as it isn’t gaudy or load gives us the sense of feminine. As the previous outfit, we have two layers of material which gives the piece texture. I would imagine it is silky to the touch which also gives us feminine. But what do I know, I like flannel pajamas too.

   In this picture by Bazaar, I really don’t know what they were thinking. Even Suzy looks happy to be wearing this outfit. She looks like she is about to cry. For one thing, there seems to be too much texture. Either have ruffles/pleating on the skirt or the blouse but not both. Secondly, the short skirt and long sleeve jacket don’t work for me. Is it summer or fall, make up my mind! Then full gloves, what's up with that?? Let see what else, the different shades of tan work but, what’s with the green?? Each item is nice by itself but not in combination. I’m about as happy to see Suzy in this as Suzy is wearing it. Not well done!
