Elegant came to mind immediately. Thank you for posting your photos. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-99192 Sun, 04 Oct 2009 18:44:16 +0000 Inge 99192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really apologize ladies, I completely forgot to respond to my own thread, duh!</p> <p>Thank you SO much for all the advice and opinions! I'm always walking on clouds after reading all that YLF praise-)</p> <p>I was a little surprised that so many of you loved the outfit with the floral cardigan and the wide-legged trouser jeans (I know they're not the most trendy option at the moment). But I'm not complaining;-)</p> <p>I'm already looking for a pair of fab skinnies or straight-legged jeans. I'm excited to see how they will change the feel of some of my outfits.</p> <p>Susan, Bella and Kristen: thank you for the camera suggestions. I will try this next time. I could do with a photography course, couldn't I...</p> <p>Dani, Marianne and Julie: thanks for the accessories suggestions. The one thing I haven't tried yet is a pin and a chunky bracelet, on to that asap!<br /> I've also realized that I can ignore the cowl neck if I want to, and just wear a fab scarf over it. Then the focus is not on the collar, but on the rest of the dress. Can work too.</p> <p>Shana: I did try the pearls with the dress, but something looked a bit off. I do wear earrings, but only small studs and very small hoops, not very noticeable really. A vest is a fab suggestion too. </p> <p>Angie: I will NEVER get sick of your KILLER rating;-)</p> <p>Jean and Danja: thank you for the compliment on the living room. It does represent my style and personality (although that wall looks a little bare now, I have some prints that still need to be framed;-)</p> <p>I'm also very pleased that many of you like the pencil skirt, and I'm always standing a little straighter when I read your compliments about my posture.</p> <p>Thank you again!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-98770 Fri, 02 Oct 2009 20:55:18 +0000 Danja 98770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A little late with my comment, but I think you look fantastic! I love the green scarf on outfit 2. Aside from outfits, which are awesome, I also love the space where you took the pictures: so open and light, with sparse modern furniture. It's my dream space. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97808 Tue, 29 Sep 2009 04:39:04 +0000 LoP 97808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLERx4!

I agree with all those praising your posture - that is what I was going to say too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97763 Tue, 29 Sep 2009 02:59:21 +0000 greenglove 97763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are so elegant, my favorite is the first outfit, you make everything look sop[sophisticated.<br /> Angie is so right about your posture. That pencil skirt is perfection! I also love your space, looks simple and elegant (so you!!!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97754 Tue, 29 Sep 2009 02:51:45 +0000 taylor 97754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your style, love your color combos, LOVE those pearls...you are killing me:) Love everything:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97750 Tue, 29 Sep 2009 02:36:37 +0000 Anonymous 97750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits every time. You are statuesque. I love your nice neat clean classy style.<br /> I would like to see you get some dark wash skinny or straight leg jeans. I think you are built for them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97743 Tue, 29 Sep 2009 02:28:38 +0000 Angie 97743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So great to see you post outfits again, Inge! </p> <p>#1 = KILLER. The pearls just do it for me. Good grief. </p> <p>#2 = KILLER. You have the best posture on YLF. I have never seen anything like it. Amazing! And I just adore that forest green scarf! My favourite outfit. </p> <p>#3 = KILLER. (Are you sick of these KILLERS yet?). Fab shoes :0)</p> <p>#4 = KILLER again. You are so, so, so statuesque! </p> <p>You score a big fat 10 for the week :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97735 Tue, 29 Sep 2009 02:22:45 +0000 Tanya 97735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woo-hoo Inge! You posted outfit photos! I am so happy, I missed seeing them on the forum!</p> <p>Every outfit is perfect and I would wear them all myself, I love the colors you are wearing You look so regal. I love that pencil skirt too! Please keep posting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97697 Tue, 29 Sep 2009 01:21:58 +0000 Kristen 97697@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>P.P.S. I miss seeing you around the forum! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97696 Tue, 29 Sep 2009 01:19:47 +0000 Kristen 97696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, these are fantastic! #1 is my favorite; the patterned sweater is so pretty! </p> <p>Susan and company already gave you great advice about the focus, but I do have a suggestion for the lighting. I can see such wonderful light coming into the room from the left side of the photo; is it possible to move the tripod so the light is behind it? That would let it then shine on you, and I think that would be the best light in the room. </p> <p>P.S. I accidentally focus on my arm all the time when I am lining up my second shot, and so my second shot generally comes out blurry. It happens to all of us! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97694 Tue, 29 Sep 2009 01:05:12 +0000 Misia 97694@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - you know how to do this - very well !Simple and stylish. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97683 Tue, 29 Sep 2009 00:23:40 +0000 shana 97683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Inge, every single outfit is amazing! I think the cowl neck dress with the bootcuts looks great but skinnies or straight-legs would make it very current. Have you tried the pearls from the first outfit with this dress? I like Dani's idea for a pin/brooch too. Do you not wear earrings? Otherwise some funky earrings would be cool too! Have you tried it with a vest? I see why you love the pencil skirt - you look hot in it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97644 Mon, 28 Sep 2009 21:10:22 +0000 RoseandJoan 97644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your style Inge and your home. The first outfit is so beautiful. </p> <p>Like Dani has said I would pair the cowl dress with a chunky bracelet or bangle. You may be able to wrap your pearls around your wrist for a chunky, layered effect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97639 Mon, 28 Sep 2009 20:58:01 +0000 marianne 97639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Inge, what a great set of pictures! I especially love #2- that green shade of scarf is beautiful! And I am still jealous about your dress. But everything looks amazing, and I can't help but feel awe at your posture.<br /> The dress would absolutely work with slouchy boots. what about a brooch?<br /> Hope work is going well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97622 Mon, 28 Sep 2009 20:08:59 +0000 bella 97622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great. </p> <p>re:focus, what susan said. make sure to stand behind the camera, half click to focus on the spot where you will be standing, and then click and run to your spot!:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97613 Mon, 28 Sep 2009 19:29:15 +0000 Dani 97613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Inge, glad to see you posting outfits...they are always so inspiring. I love your outfit with the red shoes I really like all your outfits and can't select a favorite, you look so sharp! About accessorizing the dress, have you tried pins/broaches? I find that a chunky bracelet also works well when I can't wear a necklace due to the neckline. Thanks so much for sharing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97610 Mon, 28 Sep 2009 19:26:11 +0000 susand 97610@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All your outfits look fantastic! I especially love the first one!</p> <p>Re: Camera Focus: I wonder if you camera isn't sure where to focus - if you are hitting the shutter button to activate the self timer and there isn't anything where you are going to stand for the photo - the camera might not be focusing. No idea if this is indeed the issue, but it is my guess.</p> <p>Susan D </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97609 Mon, 28 Sep 2009 19:26:05 +0000 Oneirix 97609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow so fabulous!! You look amazing! The only look I'm not in love with is the dress over jeans, but that's my personal taste. :p It would probably look better with leggings? </p> <p>I hope I can learn from your dressing prowess! ^_^ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97582 Mon, 28 Sep 2009 18:32:04 +0000 medusa 97582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Inge, wow!!! I love them all, I can't even pick a favorite. Beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97580 Mon, 28 Sep 2009 18:28:53 +0000 rute 97580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely! My favorite is no.1.</p> <p>I agree the dress will look even better with skinnies or leggings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97579 Mon, 28 Sep 2009 18:23:20 +0000 Patience 97579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Inge, you are killer! I'm loving everything. Yes, you could wear the dress with leggings and slouch boots. The bootcuts look fine with it but you still need a pair of skinnies/straight legs. And the pencil skirt is my favorite. All I can say about it is !!!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97568 Mon, 28 Sep 2009 17:32:21 +0000 Ellen 97568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Inge, your looks are fantastic and so flattering. I'd love to take every one of them straight inot my wardrobe! I especially love the coloiur mixing in the first one - polished and interesting.</p> <p>I think the dress would look great with skinnies, but it is good with those jeans as well. I wear dresses with bootcuts and flats and find it a nicely balanced look that is comfortable and easy to wear. I'm thinking that if you added dark skinnies and some heels you could take this up a notch and make it even more versatile for a variety of situations. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/four-work-outfits#post-97563 Mon, 28 Sep 2009 17:22:40 +0000 Inge 97563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi everyone</p> <p>I'm sorry I have been so quiet lately. I started a new temp job three weeks ago and hardly have any time to read all the threads, let alone reply. I miss YLF!!-(</p> <p>Anyway, I thought I'd post a few of my work outfits. As per your request I took the pictures in a different spot, the colours are a little better, but most pics are still very blurry (could there be something wrong with the self-timer function??).</p> <p>1. Mexx floral cardigan, kelly green cami, Ralph Lauren trouser jeans, red Camper loafers, new long pearl necklace.<br /> <a href="http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk120/Maundering/Keesing%20outfits%201/DSCF3788.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i278.photobucket.com/al.....CF3788.jpg</a></p> <p>2. COH Amber jeans, VS bright blue button-down, Mexx grey blazer with tiny white dots, green Matta scarf, brown wedge slides.<br /> <a href="http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk120/Maundering/Keesing%20outfits%201/DSCF3796.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i278.photobucket.com/al.....CF3796.jpg</a></p> <p>3. New blue-grey dress (I posted pics before with leggings), COH Amber jeans, yellow pendant, grey Fly London pumps.<br /> I'm thinking I urgently need a pair of skinnies or straight-legged jeans for this look?<br /> I'm also having trouble with accessorizing this dress. The small cowl neck collar is proven to be difficult. I've tried different scarves and necklaces but nothing really works.<br /> <a href="http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk120/Maundering/Keesing%20outfits%201/DSCF3798.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i278.photobucket.com/al.....CF3798.jpg</a></p> <p>Angie: do you think I could wear this dress with leggings and slouchy calf-length boots?</p> <p>4. VS bright blue button-down, Mexx plaid waistcoat, new DKNY grey pencil skirt, white wedge slides.<br /> I am loving this pencil skirt!!<br /> <a href="http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk120/Maundering/Keesing%20outfits%201/DSCF3766.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i278.photobucket.com/al.....CF3766.jpg</a></p> <p>Thanks for looking!</p> <p>If you need a password: fabfactor </p>
