This is gorgeous on you. I love the combo of soft with sharp, texture with smooth. You look wonderful in those skinnies. One of my faves on you ever!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772601 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 18:54:44 +0000 celia 772601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't watched a single episode of Firefly so I have the feeling I am missing something here , but...</p> <p>I love those skinnies on you, I am sure IRL the fact that they are coated must make this outfit extrafab. Pairing them with those boots was genius.<br /> Also the scarf takes away all the soulsuckiness that the shirt might have.</p> <p>And, of course, being the jacket-a-holic that I am I love the jacket :)</p> <p>Be careful with your back and neck and don't despair with the content of the essays </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772576 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 18:29:38 +0000 Anonymous 772576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much for commenting, everyone. I am about half-way through my quota for today, so the end is in sight!</p> <p>PreppyPear - Thanks! I just cut them again yesterday, they were getting really long.</p> <p>JuneBud -- I will try it with a skirt, thanks for the suggestion.</p> <p>Una - it doesn't show well in photos but the scarf is actually black, chocolate brown, and fuschia woven with a cream beige colour. In person it looks more intense because you see the individual colours.</p> <p>Thanks Ingunn -- don't worry, I learned my lesson a couple weeks ago with a week-long neck spasm and migraine/tension headaches. I just have to survive until the end of term, when my load drops from 100 students to a max of 20. Next term is going to feel like a vacation by comparison! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772559 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 18:14:07 +0000 Ingunn 772559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The outfit is just fab, especially with scarf &amp; unbuttoned jacket. You chose well today:) I love the blending of jeans and boots. </p> <p>Take care during marking - remember to stretch out your neck regularly (look who's talking). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772551 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 18:09:19 +0000 catgirl 772551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally Firefly! I'm not sure of the pink and grey in the scarf with this - maybe too pastel for my eye? But I love the jacket and boots look - you are ready to take on the universe, or at least grading. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772504 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 17:37:03 +0000 Mona 772504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ciet, these skinnies are becoming wardrobe workhorse for you, aren't they? I love this outfit. The colours complement one another so well and the jacket gives it a little bit uniform vibe. It definitely looks better unbuttoned. You are on the fence about this blouse but I think it is good for layering under jackets and blazers and as long as SSB is not around your face, it is okay. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772473 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 17:10:38 +0000 JR 772473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SSB = soul-sucking beige </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772446 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 16:43:06 +0000 N-Marie 772446@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the combo of the similar colored boot + coated skinnies- it gives you a very long leg line.</p> <p>I'm too new to know what SSB means, but I was a big firefly fan and so sad when they canceled that show! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772388 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 16:02:09 +0000 rae 772388@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You know I love it! I also like it best with the jacket open, and I think the scarf is the perfect way to keep the SSB away from your face. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772371 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 15:36:29 +0000 JR 772371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! And I like the extra colour the scarf is adding to brighten up a November day. The colours go well with you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772340 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 15:02:36 +0000 JuneBug 772340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the way you've worn your scarf! Also prefer the look with the jacket open, but I was thinking, if you had a skirt on instead and your blouse tucked in, then this exact jacket might look very nice buttoned up with the scarf inside! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772334 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 14:52:13 +0000 Preppy Pear 772334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit! I really like the rounded hem of the top with the sharper angles of the jacket! And I'm really digging your bangs! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772327 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 14:47:33 +0000 Atlantia 772327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shiny! I feel the Firefly vibe, and I like it with the jacket open. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772322 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 14:42:00 +0000 Asingh 772322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772306 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 14:17:27 +0000 Kristin L 772306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it better with the open jacket as well.

It's a win if puts you in a good mood, so there's a hope for your students you'll mark those essays, generously:-)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772291 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 14:01:36 +0000 Rabbit Heart 772291@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The colours are wonderful and they are very flattering on you! I don't know Firefly, but for me, this outfit has a slight uniform-like vibe (jacket+boots), which I really like! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772288 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 13:55:49 +0000 Janet 772288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>BTW, I somehow never watched Firefly until after it ended (even though I was a big Buffy fan). I saw Serenity in the theater and *then* proceeded to go on a viewing spree of all the FF episodes. So sad it didn't last longer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772283 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 13:47:19 +0000 pil 772283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do I not know what Firefly is because I'm a geezer?</p> <p>Like Janet I like it with the jacket open, but the interesting peplum detail of the jacket shows up better in the photos with the jacket closed. And those boots look so comfy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772281 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 13:45:51 +0000 Jaime 772281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the blouse looks good with the scarf. I like the jacket unbuttoned and the whole thing looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772280 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 13:37:36 +0000 Janet 772280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this a lot, especially with the jacket open. I'm taking notes for the coated skinnies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-you-cant-take-the-sky-from-me#post-772279 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 13:35:21 +0000 Anonymous 772279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(Firefly reference in the title)</p> <p>Here's another go at the coated skinnies. Actually, now that I think about it, this is almost an exact repeat of an outfit from a month or two ago. I think just the skinnies and the jacket are different. This has my Firefly vibe, I love the soft colours with the saturated burgundy. The boots look more space-age and add that FF element into things.</p> <p>I was going to wear my brown boots, but these ones felt comfier this morning so I went with it. In person, the boots and jeans match much more closely.</p> <p>This blouse I am always on the fence about. It is silky, I love the collar and RATE pleating detail, but the colour is close to SSB. I wish it was another colour, but I think with a scarf it does ok. I also tried this buttoned up, it looks like the jacket is pulling but it isn't, I think it just doesn't work with the scarf underneath. So unbuttoned wins the day today.</p> <p>Blouse: Gap<br /> Scarf: Old Navy<br /> Wool Western style Jacket: Rickis<br /> Coated Skinnies: Suzy Shier<br /> Boots: Camper</p> <p>I am chained to my desk marking essays all day (and likely all week)...meh. At least my happiness level in clothing is 100% today. </p>
