I hope "Cherish" will translate in better connection with my family and friends. Best wishes for your journey as well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021/page/2#post-2165717 Fri, 15 Jan 2021 16:06:35 +0000 Barbara Diane 2165717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like you’ve found your style. Yay!<br /> I love the word “cherish” and I‘m mulling it over for my life. Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021/page/2#post-2165686 Fri, 15 Jan 2021 08:25:53 +0000 slim cat 2165686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you @UmmLila - I'm enjoying my blue puffer since SoCa is mild in winter. The icy blue color looks great on blond ladies - I'm sure you look beautiful in it! Sorry about your graphic tee shirt - it's a difficult association ( Revolution and the eagle ) , maybe some time away in a holding zone will change that. P.S. I put photo back on - hope to see your blue puffer as well!<br />Thank you @Jules - I'm happy with some of my outfits however I'm still hoping to add more variety ( and more color ) to my limited work wardrobe. YLF forum and blog are both responsible for my more successful pieces.&nbsp;The hair is now pale blue and need a bit of professional attention .</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021/page/2#post-2165587 Thu, 14 Jan 2021 20:24:10 +0000 Jules 2165587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your style! Rock n roll suits you very well. I think your hair style is key. The metallic shoes are very versatile. Great demonstration of how to make a small wardrobe and some budget purchases look amazing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021/page/2#post-2165553 Thu, 14 Jan 2021 17:56:27 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 2165553@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the looks with the graphic tees. They look authentically you. I always wants ones that speak to me in some way. Unfortunately a couple weeks ago I ordered one I liked, and then the day it arrived there was that attempted coup, and now I don't know if I can ever wrap my mind around a t shirt with "Revolution" and an eagle on it!</p> <p>Also, you removed the photo, but I wanted to say that I have the same light blue puffer, which I like but was only good for my climate until November. I think the color will be good for cold spring, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164944 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 18:20:35 +0000 slim cat 2164944@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you @ophelia - shoes buying on-line is a tough task, even familiar brands aren't consistent in their sizing or correct in their style descriptions ( ECCO, Earth, L'Amour Des Pieds... ). Nordstrom Rack shoe section looked very poor last time I tried to do in store shopping&nbsp;<br />( December 2020 ) - they maybe decided to downsize it and move all decent brands on-line.<br />Thank you @suntiger - I call my silver jacket a "disco dancer" jacket after an old Indian movie from 80s. It was a steal at $19.99 from Macy's final offers and proved to be invaluable in holiday times .&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164937 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 17:56:39 +0000 Anonymous 2164937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They all look great- but especially wow to the cobalt skirt and silver jacket!<br /> I'll have to buy shoes this year too- not looking forward to it. And jeans online- nope! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164935 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 17:51:37 +0000 ophelia 2164935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look spectacular. My faves are the skirts, but I'm a skirt fiend. You have proportions down perfectly &amp; your clothes don't wear you.<br /> I have massive online shoe buying failures &amp; have also decided to only buy in store or possibly online w/ brands I know.<br /> Jeans are a problem for me too. I get mine from ebay. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164929 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 16:59:36 +0000 slim cat 2164929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you @Kate and @lyn67 for the sweet comments! My metallic sneakers are for sure workhorses - easy combinable with any outfit ( I want another pair in pure silver ). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164914 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 14:28:47 +0000 lyn67 2164914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits, all, my fave is nr 2 for the use of the metallic slip on sneaker which am obsessed for the moment to apply for myself, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164885 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 06:40:40 +0000 Kate 2164885@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your graphic tees, silver moto, and metallic sneakers, slim cat. You look beautiful in blue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164876 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 05:02:30 +0000 slim cat 2164876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you @Greyscale - I feel similar way about jackets. My shoulders are wider than hips and jackets could potentially emphasize that. My All Saints black leather jacket is size 4 ( bigger than pants size ) - I could not move my arms freely in a smaller size. <br />I try to remind myself that people see us in motion and my body looks more harmonious that way. You have your beautiful hair to balance any extra bulk that jackets could bring into the total look ( I wish I had such nice accessory ). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164873 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 04:15:46 +0000 Greyscale 2164873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love these! Blazer or biker jacket plus rock n roll tee is one of my aspirational styles - you totally nailed this. Your jackets all fit you so well and don't overwhelm your frame (this is something I always struggle with). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164872 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 03:53:54 +0000 slim cat 2164872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you @shavia - I've only started taking pics in August 2020 and it've helped with visualization of the outfits. Hopefully 2021 will only get better . I'm going to wait on jeans and see what new shapes will emerge in the 2021. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164864 Mon, 11 Jan 2021 03:29:50 +0000 Jaime 2164864@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Elegant with an edge is already your style but I will be happy to see more of it in 2021. I find jeans the most difficult to buy online, even more so than shoes. But you are doing beautifully without them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164821 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 18:27:02 +0000 slim cat 2164821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you @kellygirl - I'm addicted to the graphic tees and can't stop myself from buying a new one every month or so . Thankfully my manager is ok with my interpretation of a dress code - it's still a bit relaxed compere to what it was before corona virus.<br />Thank you @Irina - I'll try for the "elegant with an edge" as my aspiring style persona in 2021! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164818 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 18:00:34 +0000 Irina 2164818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your t-shirts and moto jackets! Your style is so elegant and with an edge. Pale blue puffer looks fantastic on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164815 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 17:52:53 +0000 kellygirl 2164815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That blue coat makes you glow--I can see why it's a favorite. What a pretty color on you! You are right on with your "rock and roll" descriptor--I can really see it in these outfit photos. Fab style a la Janet! You have a fun graphic tee collection--glad that you are able to get those in rotation. Fits are perfect and look fab in all iterations--and what great layering pieces under jackets! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164814 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 17:28:20 +0000 slim cat 2164814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you @Minaminu, @Liesbeth, @Star, @unfrumpted, @Mirjana, @Nikki, @La Pedestrienne, @bonnie for the sweet and encouraging words!<br />Thank you @Runcarla - I would not have been able to figure out my type and style preferences without many helpful links you have posted in &nbsp;2020 and before! I decided to stick to Gamine guidelines and try to wear all the fun pieces in any given day .<br />Thank you @Angie for the sweet words - you are the perfect inspiration and amazing guru of YLF blog and forum! I do love INXS and recently was watching a bit of their "Live Baby Live" at Wembley Stadium - remastered in 2019 ( great performances ). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164809 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 16:50:12 +0000 Angie 2164809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*applause*</p> <p>What a fabulously stylish and SIMPAT style year you had, <b>slimcat</b>! I LOVE your signature graphic tee looks with the jackets. Meaningful, sentimental, authentic and hip! Excellent that you gave yourself permission to do just that. WELL DONE.&nbsp;</p> <p>Your midi skirts, sneakers, blue hair and sparkle are KILLER gorgeous too. Elegantly casual with a whole lot of spunk. We must be a similar age if you loved rocking hot INXS :)</p> <p>Let me know if we can help you find jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164805 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 16:34:36 +0000 Bonnie 2164805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm another fan of your graphic tees and rock and roll style.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164792 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 15:54:30 +0000 Carla 2164792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have a distinctive style that is quite eye catching. &nbsp;Rock’n Roll Gamine, I think! &nbsp;I love the silver, black, with various shades of blue, and the blue hair is magical. &nbsp;Very cohesive collection of outfits. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164788 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 15:34:46 +0000 LaPed 2164788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are gorgeous! The long topper in #1 is amazing, the graphic tee/skirt combo in #2 is spot-on and looks effortless, and motos really do suit you! Your pixie makes me want to go chop all my hair off right now. :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2020-review-and-a-bit-of-2021#post-2164787 Sun, 10 Jan 2021 15:26:09 +0000 Anonymous 2164787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome graphic tees!
