Fall/winter items that you get compliments on

Dizzy · Marc Jacobs

My tall black boots, of course, and, this is weird, but an actual short, plaid school girl skirt that I bought for a costume party and then started wearing for real.

Kelly · Hermes

My best coat - it's a gray calvin klein coat, it's so beautiful, goes to my knees, and looks like it was tailored for me

And all of my snuggly sweaters...everything I wear looks really soft, so everyone always says I look cozy

atlgirl · Gucci

- my green suede heels

- my orange (and my emerald green) v-neck cashmere sweaters

- my plaid a-line wool skirt

jacks435 · Kenneth Cole

My ivory wrap sweater, my metallic snakeskin Mary Janes (I used to fear that they were a little too crazy, but I get compliments every time I wear them!), and my coats -- especially my camel toggle coat and my violet double-breasted coat.

kittenheels · Coach

A wool jersey dress by theory. It's a surplice bodice with an empire waist in black. I love it - not only is it chic and a little different from the traditional black dress, but it is ridiculously comfortable. It's in my latest TS post.

sephorablue · Marc Jacobs

This coat. I seriously call it my Compliment Coat, because unfailingly I get several compliments on it every time I wear it. Even straight men often compliment me on it!

I absolutely love it.

zeitgeist4 · Gucci

I have gotten more compliments on these $17 patent Payless shoes than I have on all other items in my closet combined! Even the manly-men (construction manager) guys at work are fascinated by them.

These boots are pretty popular too. They were $36. Go figure.

ladysi78250 · Dooney & Bourke

I don't have any pics right now but when I wear my scarves and also my winter coats. I have this beautiful blue and purple wool BCBG coat and a green Express peacoat. I will take pics and later post.

lynnie · Chanel

gosh, compliments can be so weird! i always get complimented on:

dark plaid fitted $20 H & M shirtdress

red hermes hand charm bracelet

black turtleneck sweater- usually from straight guys maybe they really do prefer subtlety (sp?)

black leather vintage riding boots

TheLovelyLady71 · Hermes

My red leather jacket from JCP last year, and my boot collection.

jrhampt · Kenneth Cole

My boot collection, especially my Dr. Scholl "Illusion" boots. Also a pair of red Seychelles wedges.

berryahou35 · Dooney & Bourke

It's weird, I got complimented on the most unexpected things:

gray and red Argyle turtleneck sweater.. speaking of which, I need to dig that out of my closet

jacks435 · Kenneth Cole

Not to hijack, but z4, where did you get those boots? The color is gorgeous!

KBomb · BCBG

Knee high boots of all kinds - I got a new pair pf Franco Sarto flat heel back leather boots - and EVERY time I wear them I get so many comliments from guys. They look like riding boots with the zipper up the back - must be the "kink" factor of the riding thing - I need a crop now! Giddyup!

Lilykind · Hermes

The crew members on my show are endlessly fascinated with my Grail hoodie. The same hoodie was used in the show in a different color. Everyone loves that the bird is not prissy, but slightly badass.

Also, the C&C boatneck sweater is a hit with everyone.

halleybird · Hermes

hands down, these boots:

madita buckle boot

and these shoes:

sfclinevandy · Coach

I wore this jacket yesterday and 2 strangers told me it was a great color on me... made my day!

Farrah · Marc Jacobs

Halleybird - Does anyone ever ask how your horse is when you wear them? Every time that I wear them my boss asks how Trigger handled the commute into work.

As for my complimented items - my Nanette Lepore coat from the BF (I swear I have never not gotten a compliment while wearing it), my little charcoal bow bolero by Me and You (from Urban)sorry - the dumb sold out sign is blocking the jacket
