It has an essential function, and goes with everything, but looks like a statement. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2019-essentials-i-think#post-1997276 Wed, 30 Jan 2019 14:54:33 +0000 Angie 1997276@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*APPLAUSE*</p> <p><b>Suntiger,</b> you NAILED it. Very nicely done.&nbsp;</p> <p><b><i></i></b><i></i><u>About red:&nbsp;</u><i></i><i></i><b><i></i></b></p> <p>Red is tricky. The way I see it, if it's really quiet like<b> FashIntern's</b>&nbsp;muted berry tones - it can work as an essential. As the red gets brighter - even when it's still a shade of burgundy like<b> Gretchen's </b>brighter burgundy cardigan - it starts to make a statement (especially against the neutrals). My tomato and watermelon reds are very bright and bold = statement.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2019-essentials-i-think#post-1997214 Wed, 30 Jan 2019 11:42:58 +0000 Mainelady 1997214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your list. It has me thinking that I need to add a handbag and a work tote to my essentials. I can’t leave the house without them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2019-essentials-i-think#post-1997204 Wed, 30 Jan 2019 11:23:33 +0000 kkards 1997204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>interesting...i never thought about my glasses or my watch as essentials...of course they are...but they are so essential that i just sort of take them for granted.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2019-essentials-i-think#post-1997202 Wed, 30 Jan 2019 11:07:31 +0000 Anonymous 1997202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thinking of the common theme that makes the black tops essential/interchangable. Though the sleeve treatments, hemlines, fabrics, and necklines vary, the body is always uncluttered. They're all pullovers (except a halter that buttons in the back), with no ruffles or pockets on the body. I think of them as my version of the black t shirt or white button up shirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2019-essentials-i-think#post-1997133 Wed, 30 Jan 2019 04:20:12 +0000 Suz 1997133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This sounds like a really good list to me!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2019-essentials-i-think#post-1997122 Wed, 30 Jan 2019 03:29:03 +0000 taylor 1997122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the idea of a cognac crossbody and cognac booties .
