Bravo! lyn67 on "A week in life at the gym. wiw T-F Jan/26" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-week-in-life-at-the-gym-wiw-t-f-jan26/page/2#post-2404896 Thu, 29 Jan 2026 22:26:31 +0000 lyn67 2404896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Looking great in all black Lisa!! Loved to see your work outfits. I find they are very sharp  not boring  and I can definitely see the variation not only in the silhouette but the selected pieces's style-you do really well wearing interresting outfits each day so for me it doesn't even feel like a uniform.  My fave is the scuba funel top-looks great with your short cut and feels so current and sporty. Your shoes are also fab! Wondering why did you get the side-eyes look from your CEO-but she already knows you are a rebel, isn't it?  Very clever to drape the track-jacket over the back of your chair:-)...

I thought from the title this would be an athleisure capsule. You do dressy but comfy black (and red) so well. And I love the buckle shoes! Do you wear one of those Canada toques too? I'm loving the Heated Rivalry show! bella on "A week in life at the gym. wiw T-F Jan/26" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-week-in-life-at-the-gym-wiw-t-f-jan26/page/2#post-2404643 Tue, 27 Jan 2026 10:49:41 +0000 bella 2404643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ It must be hard to get dressed everyday within such strict parameters, but you make it look easy! Honestly, this is the high level of excellence in neutral-dressing that I aim at, but fail miserably to reach.

I love all of these but special love for blazer and pants tucked into boots. I also love the red shoes! And what a great feeling to realize your working wardrobe truly works! I think variety of silhouette and texture is key to keeping it fresh when you are restricted to one. colour.

And I love your red, short hair. Also much appreciation for the shoes in black and red and the introduction of the green and red jacket. I only wish there was an easier way to see the details in black but I will take what I can see. The public would drive me up the wall. When I worked behind the counter at the thrift store I almost lost it. It is stunning to an introvert like me how very pushy people can be and how much they can ask.

A lot of the daily interaction is “ good morning “ etc as members file into the gym . But the business end of it where I am can be really draining but sometimes incredibly rewarding . It’s a lot of long conversations . Knowing you made someone’s day better or gave them hope for a healthier future is the best feeling. People here are very proud and feel fortunate to be Canadian . Although I’m so sickened and upset by what happened today in Minnesota . It’s so close to home .

I LOVE the loose pants tucked into the sharp boots, and the blazer does indeed convey authority and don't %$#@ with me energy :). Everything looks so well-considered--it must feel so good to know you can mix and match every morning and still come up with inventive, sharp looks, despite your constraints. I cannot imagine interacting with that many people in one day! And those Canada hats are fab! I can see why they are selling out so quickly, especially given this particular moment...  Aquamarine on "A week in life at the gym. wiw T-F Jan/26" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-week-in-life-at-the-gym-wiw-t-f-jan26#post-2404418 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 19:15:53 +0000 Aquamarine 2404418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Very sharp outfits!

And sometimes I shouldn’t be allowed to talk to people either . I’ve developed replies that confuse them enough to shut them up .

I don’t go bare armed at work : this is what I wear under my work jacket . Layering a sleeved top under a track jacket is something I can’t do - reminds me of panty lines showing under pants , lol. Too bulky and lumpy . And Brooklyn I actually thought of you and the other Southern Hemisphere members - I actually prefer -38 to +38 if I had to choose …….that kind of heat is unimaginable to me . It’s not like we’re hanging around outside in this weather  - it’s straight from home to car to work . I worry about animals and unhoused people in this climate though . I suppose the issues are the same for +38 weather.   And to Janet's comment - I wear proper heavy winter boots to work and change into the shoe/boot of the day when I get there.   Janet on "A week in life at the gym. wiw T-F Jan/26" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-week-in-life-at-the-gym-wiw-t-f-jan26#post-2404377 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 13:47:20 +0000 Janet 2404377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ These are so good! I’m marveling at the sleeveless idea in winter. My brain cannot wrap itself around that, LOL. But my arms are not worth showing off even when it’s hot (but IDGAF and wear sleeveless in summer anyway). And I guess you’re wearing boots and carrying those adorable shoes with you to work. I LOVE an edgy pointed or narrow-toed flat and you have great ones. But I just live in boots in the winter, unless it’s a warmer spell and I break out the loafers (with socks of course). You clearly bring a lot of style to your work “uniform” and you wear a column of black so well. Fab hair too! kkards on "A week in life at the gym. wiw T-F Jan/26" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-week-in-life-at-the-gym-wiw-t-f-jan26#post-2404374 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 13:30:13 +0000 kkards 2404374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Omg sleeveless?  A reminder that each of us has our own internal and individual temperature comfort  but wow, you make “basic” black any thing but.  These are an excellent example of how a uniform does not need to define you and/or be boring. Wednesday is just so current and now without being trendy or over the top.  So fab.  And if I ran into Friday you, I  wouldn’t talk back or argue with you either, totally giving I’m in charge here, but in a good way, vibes.   Dee on "A week in life at the gym. wiw T-F Jan/26" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-week-in-life-at-the-gym-wiw-t-f-jan26#post-2404373 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 11:36:16 +0000 Dee 2404373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ These styles are terrific, very polished. I too, thought you’d being wearing more of an athletic style. Your shoe collection is cool and a little edgy. Pin striped blazer says I’m in charge. Fun changing up your outfits when confined to just one colour, I’d do the same. The polar vortex has arrived here too. Darn cold especially with the wind. Love the Canada toques and scarves, glad they’re hot sellers.

I love the pointy toes, the high necks and the pinstripes. I cannot imagine wearing anything sleeveless when it’s -32 outside. Actually, I cannot imagine -32 at all. It’s beyond my comprehension.
