You look fabulous!</p> <p>No 1-2 are absolutely superb. Love the coat with the fun statement bag and also the version with the fabulous pink scarf. I seriously want this outfit! And no 7 - WOW! Love the blue&nbsp;jacket on you and the fantastic scarf! &nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897814 Mon, 12 Mar 2018 12:53:00 +0000 Angie 1897814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FABULOUS as always, <b>Janet</b>. You wear long jackets, coats and vests to perfection. I LOVE the pops of colour, and &nbsp;fun concert memorabilia too.&nbsp;</p> <p>KILLER sentimental skirt combo. I have to go with that one as my favourite because of your Mama.</p> <p>Like <b>Brooklyn</b>, <b>Mainelady</b> and <b>Lisa p</b>, you are always adorned with statement jewellery - sometimes a few pieces at a time. It's signature - especially your big rings. With the patterns, brights and rainbow hair, they create a maximal look<i> your</i> way. Nicely done.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897812 Mon, 12 Mar 2018 12:39:29 +0000 lyn67 1897812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A jacket lover here, too! You always dress so stylish, Janet, but here I especially love outfit with the long one, wow! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897803 Mon, 12 Mar 2018 12:03:04 +0000 Janet 1897803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the kind words!</p> <p>Krishnidoux, it’s a combination of things — button front shirts are not an easy fit for me in the first place. They tend to be cut too straight and I get gaping at the bust, and/or they get hung up on my hips. I can’t do any full tuck anymore since I’ve gained weight, so the hip fit has to be right. And then there is the matter of how deep the neckline is when you leave a couple of buttons unbuttoned (buttoned up feels too dressy for me these days) — many shirts seem to have awkwardly spaced buttons, so the opening either feels too high or too low without a cami or tank underneath. </p> <p>Plus, collared shirts are often hard to combine with jackets in a way that doesn’t become fussy or fidgety — the collars often compete. I’ve actually cut the collars off of a couple of unworn shirts to see if that helps make them more casual and easier to style, but so far I still don’t seem to be reaching for them, so I’m not sure whether that’s been a successful experiment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897787 Mon, 12 Mar 2018 10:43:26 +0000 krishnidoux 1897787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These looks are all winners! I like how you ply up your hair colour with wither black or bright, electric colors like that scarf and the blue jacket. In outfit 5-6, it's your eyes. Very weel played!<br />Also, you are the master of the leather moto! You mention you struggle with button down shirts and I'm curious why. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897785 Mon, 12 Mar 2018 10:37:10 +0000 jussie 1897785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really good outfits thank you for sharing. I love you in the bright blue jacket, and the boister sweatshirt. And I also really like your use of statement earrings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897750 Mon, 12 Mar 2018 02:54:34 +0000 Brooklyn 1897750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stellar! My fave is 5/6. Love the scarf and the earrings. Great to see you in a skirt too. Love the knot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897747 Mon, 12 Mar 2018 02:46:01 +0000 Jaime 1897747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic outfits. I really love the scarves in 6 and 7. And the bag in the first one. One statement pattern really works magically on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897743 Mon, 12 Mar 2018 02:07:00 +0000 Anonymous 1897743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are very striking in black and I really like the black and orange band tshirt on you.<br /> I really like your teal and tan scarf—reminds me of hot weather (we’re almost there!).<br /> Also like the subtle burgundy check shirt.<br /> I always enjoy sneaking peeks at your jewelry. A real treat! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897736 Mon, 12 Mar 2018 01:11:13 +0000 Aquamarine 1897736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, your formula works! LOVE all your jackets and it’s always a treat when you share those outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897726 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 23:38:32 +0000 Carla 1897726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for sharing your WIW's! I'm hankering after a floral bag, and love the one you're using in #1-+2. My fave outfit is #7 - love the pop of blue provided by the jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897704 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 22:38:30 +0000 Mainelady 1897704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really enjoy seeing these pics. I like your style. Love seeing you in scarves, so #2,5,7 are my faves. That blue jacket is amazing on you!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897691 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 20:42:07 +0000 Dianna 1897691@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all great outfits,&nbsp;&nbsp;My favorites are&nbsp;1-2 and 7-8, I love that blue jacket on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897658 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 17:58:50 +0000 Janet 1897658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nadya, good eye! You’re right about the bag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897657 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 17:57:49 +0000 Janet 1897657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Barbara D! </p> <p>I’ve definitely got a formula in these, don’t I? Statement jackets, footwear, scarves and ring. The other pieces tend to be pretty basic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897656 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 17:56:50 +0000 Nadya 1897656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet, these are all fab, as usual! I love your signature statement rings and I’m drooling over that purse in 5 and 6. Is it a Brahmin? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897655 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 17:49:02 +0000 Barbara Diane 1897655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gear is practical and useful but each of these are engaging and have a special something that catches my eye. There is something for me to learn from this/you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897630 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 14:38:34 +0000 Colette 1897630@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't realize it was a popover! I share the hip struggle with button fronts and end up either leaving buttons undone or semi-tucking. Brilliant that you had the side vents extended. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897628 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 14:22:28 +0000 Janet 1897628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Colette, I have trouble with button front shirts too. This one is a popover style so the buttons don’t go all the way down — I actually had the side vents extended up the seams a bit so it would fit over my hips more easily, which made this shirt much more wearable. But I’ve learned to think very carefully before I buy any more collared button-front shirts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897627 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 14:12:45 +0000 Colette 1897627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet, all your looks are really fab. You really know YOU! That floral bag with the scarf is making me swoon right now! And I may be copying 3-4. My poor button up shirts are just not getting any wears. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897624 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 14:06:42 +0000 Janet 1897624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachy, I know, right? LOL I barely own any skirts anymore. They’re pretty much exclusively summer items for me, but I decided to winterize this yesterday by wearing it over my running leggings (made for a quick change to go running after studio time). It was a little staticky by the end of the day but otherwise really comfortable. Definitely channels the more boho side of my style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897623 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 13:55:13 +0000 Cardiff girl 1897623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice and I particularly like the bright blue jacket on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897619 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 13:48:02 +0000 rachylou 1897619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just love all these looks to death. That little bit of rock n’ roll you do, does the trick. Ok. But gosh. Have I ever seen you in a skirt?! Dress, ok; but skirt? Lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-few-wiw-6#post-1897616 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 13:33:21 +0000 Janet 1897616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>On the days when I actually bother to wear more than gear, I’ve been trying to keep track of what I’m wearing to help me evaluate my closet. Clearly I have a formula that involves my jackets! Which explains why I struggle so much more with warm weather dressing, when jackets are too hot to bother with. Nonetheless, I thought I’d share some recent outfits. </p> <p>#1-2 are the same outfit, just remembered that I had the perfect scarf to match and threw it on at the last minute. </p> <p>#7-8 are the same outfit — 8 just shows the concert tee I was wearing under the blue jacket. This band is led by a friend, so I took a pic and posted on IG to share with her. </p> <p>#9 is an outlier — a skirt! My mom bought me this skirt a decade ago so it’s always sentimental for me. </p> <p>#10 is my alter-ego who only leaves the house to go running or hiking in the woods on a cold day. The hat is from a St Vincent concert — I loved that I could buy a concert piece of merch to wear other than the usual tee, since I have a million concert tees. </p>
