It’s been very useful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-and-not-black#post-2379007 Thu, 23 Jan 2025 00:46:12 +0000 Suz 2379007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Angie said!

The blue and black together are excellent.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-and-not-black#post-2379004 Thu, 23 Jan 2025 00:33:29 +0000 kkards 2379004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh, I’m just so impressed thst ypu wore a dress in that temperature!&nbsp;<div>Love the blue and black together. &nbsp;Now tell me about the belt…is it an elastic/ stretchy fabric, it works so well with this outfit.&nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-and-not-black#post-2378991 Wed, 22 Jan 2025 19:43:52 +0000 Cookie 2378991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Forgot to say, that sounds terribly cold for Seattle! It probably feels much colder than the sunny day we have here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-and-not-black#post-2378986 Wed, 22 Jan 2025 18:48:38 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 2378986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this looks great!&nbsp; And the necklace + brooch pair beautifully, to my eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-and-not-black#post-2378985 Wed, 22 Jan 2025 18:43:44 +0000 Cookie 2378985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aww thank you, Angie! And Nancy! I know the name John Lewis of course as a Bostonian but somehow never really knew who he was. Now that I look him up, I am kind of obsessed. What an interesting character! I will be on the lookout for his work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-and-not-black#post-2378981 Wed, 22 Jan 2025 17:51:21 +0000 Angie 2378981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A signature <b>Cookie-outfit,</b> and rocking it :)&nbsp;</p> <p>Fab to see the sentimental brooch in action! Works well with the outfit.</p> <p>Glad you're keeping warm. It's -2C here is Seattle. Damp cold by the coast. It is COLD.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-and-not-black#post-2378980 Wed, 22 Jan 2025 17:35:39 +0000 NancyW 2378980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those pieces look good together. If I had a Jensen brooch I would wear it as much as possible. My most loved pieces are by John Lewis in Boston and I am pretty sure he was influenced by Jensen! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-and-not-black#post-2378975 Wed, 22 Jan 2025 16:49:41 +0000 Cookie 2378975@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This dress is 10+ years old but useful because it has long sleeves yet is easy to layer under even a close-fitting cardigan. With a hoodie over this plus the JCrew coat, I was quite cozy walking to the office even though it was 10 F/minus 12 C.<br /> But the main point of this outfit to me is the Georg Jensen brooch from my mom’s past! Would it be better without wearing a necklace at the same time? Maybe? </p>
