WIW : New Metalicus;) - YouLookFab Forum

Hi Lovely Ladies!

I am heading to Melbourne today (I should be packing my overnight bag) to have lunch with one girlfriend and stay overnight with another. My overnight hostess is a very dear friend and we have not seen one another for nearly 6 months which is not good. I am anticipating a lovely dinner at home (she is a great cook) and a lazy evening together followed by some good catch up time in the morning.

Today I am wearing:

Cropped Ruched Pants : Rockmans
Draped Asymetric Tunic: Metalicus
Block Heeled Sandals : Rubi

I bought the Tunic over the summer holidays and this is only its second outing. It is very sheer so I do have to wear something under it. It's is beautifully soft and like most of their garments, it is one size fits all.
Previously I have worn it over a midi length black tube skirt to create a nice long column and I am expecting to do lots of layering with it over the cooler months.

Thanks for looking, and your thoughts, suggestions, critiques all much appreciated.

Happy Friday everyone!
xxx Deborah

Just a quick note. You are looking like a smaller version of yourself. Congrats to you! And this really shows off your elongated self!

Just love this outfit.

Elizabeth P

LOVE! Both the outfit, and the reason for your trip. I hope you have a wonderful time!

Deborah

Thanks Am... you made my day. I have dropped 7kg so far but while I see it in the mirror, I am not seeing it so much in my photos:( I am greatly encouraged. 3kg to go:)

Elizabeth, thank you! Time with good friends is definitely good medicine. I am looking forward to a really good catch up.

You are the Queen of Jersey Knits. You are looking very well. I hope you have a lovely time!

Happy to make your day. You are an inspiration. I'm battling with extra pounds and need to turn up the heat on my efforts. And seeing these images is truly motivating.

Have a wonderful time! How could you not when you look that fabulous...

That is a beautiful outfit, and you are looking great. Have a wonderful time with your friends.

Wow - you are looking mighty fine Ms Deborah! I love, love this outfit - that ruched top is fantastic . Enjoy your holiday/visit with your old friend - and Happy Friday (not quite yet here but still...) to you!

Love this, and agree with others on how fantastic you look. You have an incredible way with drape (the draw the eye upward touches in this look are amazing). You have such a strong signature look. Enjoy a well-deserved fun weekend.

Very chic.

I love those shoes! Can't believe they are Rubi... I just ordered them off the website - $10 on sale (well, $20 including shipping).

I don't know how you do it Deb but you make me LOVE all black outfits - something I find very hard to do. Love the ruched top, love the rucked pants and the black sandals - but it is YOU who really make this outfit sing!
Enjoy your weekend away!

Lucy

You really shine in this outfit. Fab all over.

carolbee

Love this oufit Deborah. And ditto what AM said, this outfit really shows off your hard work.

anne

Breathtaking! You make me want to wear drape and ruche!. And I agree with everyone (and thought it before I read their comments) that your hard work on the weight loss is really showing. 7kg in about 2-3 months right? That's amazing!

Thanks so much for the encouragement ladies and glad you like this combo.
Had a lovely lunch with friend 1 and now tucked in bed at friend 2's. We had a lovely evening and a night of deep and meaningful conversation. She has just been told her contract with her employer is not being renewed, so between us we had lots of philosophical thoughts about our futures:)

Suz

You look absolutely stunning! Gorgeous outfit on you and also very practical for travel. (I am all about the practicality when travelling, LOL.) This is very elegant, though.

So interesting that both you and your friend are undergoing transitions now at work. Must be something in the air. I am sure she benefitted from your wise counsel and I am so glad you are treating yourself well by visiting with loved ones as you go through your own transition.

Enjoy!

You look absolutely FANTASTIC Deb - love the silhouette. So glad you are having a wonderful time with good friends. That's really what it's all about isn't it?

Thumbs up. Jumpsuit-lite.

Beautiful Deborah - and your effort is showing in your pics very obviously to me. Good for you! It does look a bit like a jumpsuit but with more practicality. Have a wonderful time.

Fantastic! Totally caught my eye on The Wall.

Oh those deep talks with the closest girlfriends are always a real soul spa, isn't it? Love the new tunic with the pants! Looking gorgeous Debs!

Beth Ann

I get that whole "philosophical talks about the future" thing -- it seems to happen to a lot of us. There are very few straight lines in life, but much mercy and grace in the trials!

Love the artful drape here -- you look elegant and relaxed simultaneously.

I'm wearing black today too -- but I'm also covered in paint!

Hi Deborah- this must be the tunic I bought but returned later?
It is much better in the black and layered this way- looks just right on you.
Happy Weekend

Windchime

It sounds like a restorative weekend rich in friendships. Your new ruched tunic looks amazing, as do you in this outfit. I'll be interested to see other outfits with the tunic!

Eliza

You look so elegant and yet effortless in this. Just beautiful all the way around and so you! Bravo!

Lyn, yes, this is the Mana Drape tunic;). I wasn't convinced it would work for me given just how sheer and body con it is, but once I tried it on, I could see so many possibilities:)

And yes friendship is so valuable! I am very blessed to have the friends I do. We have all known each other for quite a long time now and it's a wonderful experience doing life together. The ups and the downs have only served to deepen our connections.

Neel

I am totally crushing on this outfit!! So drapey and edgy and cool! I really wish I had the pieces to replicate this look Hope you have a wonderful time with your friend.

Had to pop in and say Metalicus should be paying you commissions! Every time you post something, I wish they had stores here.
