You look like a model, seriously. I also love the litle bit of make-up you're wearing which helps bring out your lovely face against some of these bright colors. </p> <p>Tres bien, ma cherie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws/page/2#post-597530 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 01:18:59 +0000 Kyle 597530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, I am so glad you were able to shop with Angie for pants, and that you are back posting again. I don't think I've seen those booties before, and they elevate every outfit. KILLER. You wear vibrant colors so beautifully. The teal and red are my favorites. It's obvious how much care and thought you put into your outfits, and the details make them so special. I swear, you look more gorgeous and model-like every time you post. I am consistently impressed and inspired by your creativity and clear understanding of what works and what works for you. Trust me when I say that there are a lot of us taking notes and learning from you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws/page/2#post-596888 Mon, 16 Apr 2012 03:32:10 +0000 Ana 596888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoa. Gorgeous outfits, Sveta! I LOVE #4 and the red coat is amazing! All your looks are super chic. I'm so glad you're posting your weekly WIWs again. I have missed them.

Honestly I would not mind to ad some colorful options!<br /> Zap - you are a godmother of those Express trousers!<br /> Jonesy, this is really funny what you are saying about my hair in pic.5. I hated so much how it turned out in the picture I was ready not to post it at all. It was windy and it fell all over my face! It just confirms that we see ourselves differently than others see us.<br /> Vix, thanks for the comments on my Paris thread. As for the haircut I have it for 4 weeks now and before that I was growing this front part through 3 other haircuts as well. I really like it now and going to stick with it for a while until I got bored again :-)<br /> Parsley, you may be right about the planes being germ incubators although I cam home to find my both sons visiting for Easter and they both were sick...Thanks for loving my new lipstick from Paris!<br /> Shannon, PPL trousers indeed! This is such a rare occurrence for me to find long enough trousers and these have another 2 inches which could;d be let out. am indebted to Angie and Zap! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws/page/2#post-596230 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 19:28:11 +0000 Transcona Shannon 596230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For someone who isn't feeling well, your outfits are amazing! You look like a model in #5 - it is beyond gorgeous on you and your hair looks fantabulous! I love the red cape over a dress - beautiful. I also love your pants in the last outfit. The drape on them is lovely and talk about PPL! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws/page/2#post-596218 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 19:03:28 +0000 Parsley 596218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Sveta, Glad to see you back posting!<br /> You do look so Parisian chic- I'm sure part of it is that gorgeous new lipstick.<br /> Sorry to hear that you've been sick. I swear airplanes on those trans-atlantic flights are nothing but flying germ-mobiles.</p> <p>I am just loving your outfit in #2 and the beautiful jacket your mom made you.<br /> And #4 and 5 are just jaw-droppingly stunning.<br /> YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws/page/2#post-596173 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 18:04:58 +0000 Mander 596173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all great, but I really like the mod vibe of #4. Very cool! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-596102 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 16:11:07 +0000 Jem 596102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wecome back Sveta! I'm glad you had a great trip. I love all of your outfits! I'll bet it was fun to get back to your great closet full of clothes. I'm really loving your animal print booties, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-596071 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 15:38:17 +0000 Vix 596071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back, Sveta!</p> <p>I read your Paris trip thread at some point and so glad you and your mom had a great time. [And that your suitcase choices worked well, of course!] The photos looked very sharp.</p> <p>Favorites from this bunch are 2, 4,and 5 -- so strong and graphic but you are wearing the items not the other way around.</p> <p>ps New haircut or out-of-the-loop me? Looks extra-amazing on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-596058 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 15:26:21 +0000 Jonesy 596058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, so sorry to hear that you have been sick! What a bummer...I usually get sick after a trip, so I can empathize :).</p> <p>But! You really do look so fab in these looks! I love the new jacket your mom made (can't believe her skillz!) and that outfit is awesome. Also love the new color-blocked blue and black dress--it looks perfect, especially as you've styled it here. Love all of the outerwear! Love your new Express pants! And the black dress with the new leopard blouse is gorgeous! There is something very edgy and almost punk about this look somehow--I think it has something to do with your hair, the way it's falling over your forehead. It looks fantastic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-596056 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 15:22:13 +0000 Meredith1953 596056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta you look gorgeous in every single photo. I love all the strong shapes and you just wear every color so well. You truly have a Parisian elegance that I am in awe of and I love your masterful pattern mixing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-596053 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 15:20:36 +0000 Irene 596053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#5!!!!! JUST GREAT </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-596030 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 15:03:33 +0000 Anonymous 596030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great week pant twin:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595977 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 13:31:40 +0000 Diana 595977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, this is an amazing set of outfits! My favorite is 4/5 - I love love love the new leopard blouse with the black accents and it looks fantastic paired with the sheath dress. The cape over it all is just the perfect finishing touch, gives it a very mod feeling that I love. I also love the emerald jacket in #2... I would totally steal it from you, except that it's probably like a foot too long for me! Hmm... maybe i could convince MY mom to sew me one too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595973 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 13:24:12 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 595973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have really missed your WIW posts Sveta. You have a real knack for adding detail to outfits. </p> <p>My favorites from the week are:</p> <p>#2, the color of the jacket is probably the best color I've seen on you, the pattern mixing is great and those lean black pants accentuate your long lean legs. Gorgeous.</p> <p>#4, another great color for you. This outfit is so ladylike but then you have the pattern peaking out the sleeves and the booties to keep it current. That dress is a wow dress when the red jacket is off. It fits you perfectly.</p> <p>#3 has a lot of great elements too. I really like that the bright blue is near your face but the rest of your outfit is varying neutrals. It really brings the focus to your face and the darker hair adds to the mix so well. The proportion and lines on this outfit are excellent. You look fab.</p> <p>I notice that most of the footwear is neutral. I hadn't noticed this before but it really works for you.</p> <p>It is really nice to have you back!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595970 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 13:02:20 +0000 Mona 595970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, although all your outfits are great, I seriously love the fierce pattern mixing in first two. You are such an inspiration </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595968 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 12:51:43 +0000 Sveta 595968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beth Ann, Kelly, Christieanne, Deborah, Louise - thanks!<br /> Calire, my hair is the same, I guess even lighter because it faded a bit. I have not dyed it yet since my last accident of going jet black. It maybe just the light as I took pictures outside - and maybe red lipstick?<br /> Joy, red and leopard are going to be stunning on you - they both neutral, right? :-)<br /> Manidipa, that dress with leopard shirt was actually my FFBO too as i love layering shirts and blouses under sleeveless dresses.<br /> Rae, isn't it funny: I did not have any jet leg at all when we came to Paris but coming back home it lasted for several days plus I am sure this nasty virus struck me because of that jet leg too...<br /> AJ, my mom made this emerald jacket. After I decided to return two other green jackets which I posted about (colors were just not right) we went to the fabric store and I found this perfect shade of green for me and asked my mom to make a jacket. Unfortunately this fabric was difficult to work with (don't ask why, I am a complete ignorant when it comes to sewing). Also she made the sleeves a bit big for my liking (see pic. 1) but I don't want to ask her to take them in because she had such hard time working with this fabric.<br /> Denise, this is my new Lancome lipstick I bought in Galerie Lafayette in Paris (see pic.2). Both my mom and I had a lovely girl to help us select a new shade of lipstick - I would never selected this one on my own! Thank you for loving it - it was my first Lancome lipstick ever!<br /> Sarah, I am so happy that those Editors fit well - this is Angie's magic in action! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595964 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 12:47:09 +0000 Meghan R 595964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all amazing! You're making me want to expand my coat collection;) My favorite is #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595949 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 12:08:22 +0000 sarah 595949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, you look fantastic in every single one! I love the pattern mixing and the clean, bold lines. And how fabulous that those Editors fit you so well : ). You will get tons of use out of them. I hope you feel better soon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595921 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 08:04:56 +0000 CocoLion 595921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Taken as a whole, this is the best week I've seen you post! It's hard to believe you were feeling stylistically rusty after suitcase living. Every outfit is fashion blogger worthy and you look like a model in #3. You wear that shade of lipstick so well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595918 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 07:54:22 +0000 Louise 595918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow these are all amazing x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595908 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 07:25:50 +0000 Deborah 595908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So lovely to have you home:). All your outfits look amazing but my favourite has to be #5. That outfit is inspired, must stunning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595892 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 06:39:00 +0000 AJ 595892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's never fun to be sick...but you look FAB! A great week of outfits! That emerald jacket is beautiful. (Did your mom make it or buy it?)</p> <p>I also L-U-V the red cape looks gorgeous over the dress. Also the leopard blouse under the black sheath is killer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595882 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 06:23:56 +0000 rae 595882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isn't it interesting how all the choices can make it harder to get dressed? Well, even though you may have worked harder at it, I still think you made the grade. 5 and 6 are my favorites of the bunch - so effortless and funky! </p> <p>Sorry to hear you are not feeling well, though. Rest up; the travel takes a lot out of you! I am still not fully recovered from the jet lag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595877 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 06:07:45 +0000 ManidipaM 595877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Now that's the way to use your FFBO when you're a little under the weather! LOVE the colour-blocked tunic with the skinnies and owl pendant!</p> <p>Am just blown away by your dress day too --- that is some stunning layering going on!</p> <p>Also, that new riding jacket is so, so gorgeous on you! Your mom's amazing. And I also stand amazed by outfit #6 --- not only the fabulous fit, but the subtle colour blocking (black&amp;white above, all-grey below) and pattern mixing of the combination with that unexpected belt is too fab for words! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595855 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 05:42:18 +0000 Anonymous 595855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Sveta, it's so good to have you back posting your beautifully planned outfits! You have the best coat collection ever! It's hard to pick a favorite, but it's probably 6/7 with the leopard blouse and red cape. You've inspired me to try to find a way to wear my leopard blouse with red. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595849 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 05:32:22 +0000 Anonymous 595849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, welcome back and I'm so glad you posted even though you're not feeling great (we would never know). I love your pattern mixing, not crazy at all! Your red cape with skirts/dresses is fantastic! Please make note of this for next year. You look so dark and romantic in the sheath dress with leopard blouse. Is your hairdo different (wet, maybe?) your make-up? Very mysterious and beautiful! You had a super week Sveta. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-to-my-weekly-wiws#post-595818 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 04:24:15 +0000 christieanne 595818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can understand why you missed your coats! They are really good choices - the red cape is so stunning on you. Love it.<br /> Appreciating how you layered and mixed - the leopard belt with stripes, the blouse under the dress.<br /> Hope you feel better quickly too! </p>
