I love the variety here, which all look so authentic and you. #1 is the outfit that I would be borrowing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-wiws-8/page/2#post-2236419 Fri, 05 Nov 2021 02:31:57 +0000 Jaime 2236419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Jonesy! The sweater vest is pretty oversized - I think it is men's, but I could wear it with a tank underneath. Interesting idea! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-wiws-8/page/2#post-2236255 Thu, 04 Nov 2021 15:06:26 +0000 Jonesy 2236255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love everything! Of course #2 jumps out at me because of the story behind it and the stripes on that Balenciaga top! I also love the look of the longer sleeved top layered underneath the vest/top. Could you wear the vest in warmer weather with nothing underneath? #1 is classic (for you, I mean, not in a general sense :), and #3 is really fab--I love those black jeans, and pairing them with navy is very elegant. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-wiws-8/page/2#post-2236170 Thu, 04 Nov 2021 02:54:47 +0000 Jaime 2236170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all again!<br /><b>Carla</b> - That is the ultimate compliment!<br /><b>Sal</b> and <b>Brooklyn</b> - Thank you!<br /><b>Helena</b>- Yes, they already own us so their compliments are especially sweet .<br /><b>avicennia</b> - Always a pleasure to hear from you whenever! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-wiws-8/page/2#post-2236050 Wed, 03 Nov 2021 13:29:30 +0000 avicennia 2236050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m also late to this — so only thing to add is how much I enjoy a Shevia WIW. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-wiws-8/page/2#post-2236028 Wed, 03 Nov 2021 12:02:16 +0000 Helena 2236028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So fresh and fun!

It's always great to see your finds, and this is no exception. #1 is gorgeous -- elegantly easy with the high contrast and mules. You look like a 17 th&nbsp; century courtier in half dress at a masked ball (I mean half dress for those times, not ours!)</p> <p>Love the sweater vest, too, and no kidding your daughters want to steal it!&nbsp;</p> <p>Last outfit is equally great.

I felt drawn to wear this now that sweater vests are all the rage, but could have I worn it two years ago? Not sure. But it is excellent quality.<br /><b>CarolS</b> - Wow, thank you! Yes, the museum concept was very good and enjoyable. Mules were so me, I couldn't resist!<br /><b>Sharan</b> - Thanks! I like the pieces in the last outfit a lot too.<br /><b>Katerina</b> - I am so flattered! I did like matching the red in the shoes to the red in the sweater .<br /><b>Rachylou</b> - Just sayin' Aeyde Jess mules - I got them for less than half their retail price and I have seen other sales around.<br /><b>Rio</b> - Thank you! Indeed is it&nbsp;Ghesquiere era Balenciaga? I thrifted it (likely from the donation of unsold items by a consignment shop) at least 5 years ago and I don't know enough to know. And yes, lines and curves - the lasting lesson from Kibbe et. al.<br /><b>Stag</b> - Thank you! Yes, one sleeve up and the other down is my signature style .<br /><b>Star</b> - Thanks! I really like #3 too, even though I tend to go for more contrast most of the time.<br /><b>suntiger</b> - The shape of those pants is amazing. They really deserve a better photo .<br /><b>kkards</b> - Thank you! Interesting association but sounds good to me!<br /><b>lyn67</b> - You ask a good question. The general crowd was a mix of the skirts only set and a more pants oriented crowd. I chose to put myself somewhere in between .<br /><b>Janet</b> - Yes I also admire those shoulder tanks and was delighted to find this tee to play with, even though it is pretty cheaply made. Hope to see your shoulder pad experiments!<br /><b>Mirjana</b> - Thank you, and right back at you Mirjana.<br /><b>catherine</b> - Thank you. I have the expertise at thrifting that comes from years of consistent practice .<br /><b>Angie</b> - I certainly did think of my foot twin when I chose these mules, and am waiting for you to come borrow them .</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-wiws-8#post-2235707 Tue, 02 Nov 2021 13:44:42 +0000 catherine 2235707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for posting these, Shevia. I really like your style. Your skill at thrifting amazes me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-wiws-8#post-2235696 Tue, 02 Nov 2021 13:28:13 +0000 Mirjana 2235696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all three outfits, you look sooo beautiful . But I love the first outfit especially, the white blouse and the white mules are lovely and so crispy and elegant. You have a great style Shevia. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-wiws-8#post-2235695 Tue, 02 Nov 2021 13:26:50 +0000 Angie 2235695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE the white! KILLER FAB look in #1! Excellent pairing of voluminous silhouettes that you wear with your usual quiet verve. And one of your best "colours" - Those white mules need to be shared with your foot twin in Seattle.</p> <p>#2 is a fun fashion forward experiment!&nbsp;</p> <p>#3 is ready for the NYFW sweatshirt fashion shoot! Very YOU in every detail. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-wiws-8#post-2235690 Tue, 02 Nov 2021 12:51:21 +0000 Janet 2235690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it all. Especially #1 which looks so fantastic! </p> <p>And you have me thinking about shoulder pads. I got one of those trendy sleeveless shoulder pad tees this summer (super cheap at the Rack for a little experiment), and ended up really liking it. I wore shoulder pads well back in the 80s — they help even out my uneven shoulders and balance my hips. I may need to try some subtle removable ones. Thanks for the inspiration! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-wiws-8#post-2235685 Tue, 02 Nov 2021 12:03:19 +0000 lyn67 2235685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nr 1 is the biggest hit for the Bat Mizvah in the museum, how the other parents were dressed there-loved that you looked so edgy/artsy -not only the white mules (but which certainly&nbsp; add a big amount of fabness) but the baggy pants with the gathered on waist white shirt-volume on volume-&nbsp; K2K !!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-wiws-8#post-2235673 Tue, 02 Nov 2021 10:47:38 +0000 kkards 2235673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&nbsp;#2, for some reason its taking me back to my early fashion days of layering Danskins with tee shirts…which i know this so isn’t. But its giving me a 70s vibe which I’m loving&nbsp;<br />and i love the vibe of #1, just the right level of dressy/casual. and as Rachy says, the white mules, those are so good looking.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-recent-wiws-8#post-2235671 Tue, 02 Nov 2021 10:45:13 +0000 Anonymous 2235671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the first outfit especially!
