You have amazing style and an equally amazing visual memory. I love #5/7.  But like Beth Ann, I'm also quite taken by the one with light cropped jeans.  You have enviable long legs.  Anonymous on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1681483 Sun, 19 Jun 2016 17:33:06 +0000 Anonymous 1681483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You're spoiling us lately with all these outfit posts Isabelle I think you can really rock a pussy bow blouse and you really have the best posture. Clothes just love your frame.  Of the stand alone blouse and bottoms looks, I think that I prefer 3 and 4 because the lower vamped shoes appeal to me more with the cropped pants. With the jacket, #7 just blows me away! So cool! Elizabeth P on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1681342 Sun, 19 Jun 2016 11:32:13 +0000 Elizabeth P 1681342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love #7, but I'm thinking a jacket slung over the shoulders isn't the most practical way to wear it all day.  I also really like #3 for a more wearable look.  The horizontal line doesn't bother me with the jeans for some reason.  Summer on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1681328 Sun, 19 Jun 2016 09:12:35 +0000 Summer 1681328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Bob's your uncle, indeed, Skylurker! 7 is an absolute knockout. skylurker on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1681306 Sun, 19 Jun 2016 06:59:52 +0000 skylurker 1681306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Actually, no, Jaime, I didn't know these images, song titles...would jump out of my brains when I set up a post. Now I realize they must be in the back of my mind when I shop or dress. Jaime on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1681247 Sun, 19 Jun 2016 01:38:17 +0000 Jaime 1681247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Going from #6 to #7 was a sublime experience. You have an amazing way of associating images and apparently a photogenic memory. But I guess you knew that .  skylurker on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1681107 Sat, 18 Jun 2016 18:09:09 +0000 skylurker 1681107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Sally : you see my hair after it's been blown dry by the hairdresser here. It never looks like that when I dry it myself. Beth Ann : yes, I think the first outfits have potential. The post helped me see the blouse much more clearly. I've taken it to the taylor for alterations this morning. I hope it will be more versatile once it fits better, and become a stand alone, as well as a layering, blouse. Beth Ann on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1681085 Sat, 18 Jun 2016 16:38:12 +0000 Beth Ann 1681085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love the 60's hipster androgyny  of the last look, of course, but I also think the 3rd photo is a great look.  the lighter, shorter pant and bold, but feminine shoe takes the blouse in a new direction.

I love the Bob Dylan inspired outfit. I have the same hairstyle as you but it hardly ever looks as sleek as that. rachylou on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1680997 Sat, 18 Jun 2016 11:16:16 +0000 rachylou 1680997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ #3 and #7 are top of the line for me. And the Bob connection is amazing. I had to laugh.

Maneera : thank you, I think it's better to be as flat-chested as Bob to rock a pussy bow blouse Maneera on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1680884 Sat, 18 Jun 2016 02:24:47 +0000 Maneera 1680884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oooh....Isabelle with sleek hair! Looks sharp....but I don't think the secret to your "always chic" look is your hair...it's your attitude. You exude self confidence like no one woman I've ever seen. #7 is just plain awesome. I seriously love these 'poses' you do I've never been able to pull off a pussybow blouse, but I think you do it great Justice. #5 is a seriously drool-worthy outfit. Simple but such perfect proportions! I do like the color combo in #4. I think you wear the top well, so you don't always have to wear it inside a jacket.

Yes, I think #5 (with the jacket) is best to break up the horizontal line. I also really like your shiny pointy boots.

And I guess you figured out I meant "collar," not "color." It's fun to see your posts. I'm enjoying your style, your musings, and your tryouts of different looks.

I think #3 would be super with the top tucked for some shifted-upwards proportions. #7 feels lighter than #5 because of the shoulder draping ^^ Lyn D. on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1680746 Fri, 17 Jun 2016 22:34:46 +0000 Lyn D. 1680746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ YLF! skylurker on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1680745 Fri, 17 Jun 2016 22:31:57 +0000 skylurker 1680745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks Tanya, yes #5 is the same outfit as #7, minus the Wayfarers and 1966 attitude and I agree to keep that blouse under jacket. Tanya on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1680737 Fri, 17 Jun 2016 22:18:51 +0000 Tanya 1680737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ #7 looks like a shot for a fashion magazine, it is that good. #5, which looks like the same outfit, is gorgeous.  The blouse looks great under jackets. skylurker on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1680732 Fri, 17 Jun 2016 22:13:34 +0000 skylurker 1680732@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks. I think #7 looks good because it's b&w, I'll turn all my pics into b&w from now on ;) Firecracker : I always wear that shirt tucked, I wanted to try untucked looks but I don't like them. Loosening the tie looks worse because it makes the shirt even more unstructured and bigger. So I put a blazer over it all : that old trick always works for me :) Angie : yeah, went to the hairdresser yesterday for an overdue haircut, that's why hair is weirdly smooth and well behaved Bonnie on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1680695 Fri, 17 Jun 2016 20:55:11 +0000 Bonnie 1680695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ #7 looks fabulous!! goldenpig on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1680681 Fri, 17 Jun 2016 20:04:35 +0000 goldenpig 1680681@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look smashing in #7! Like a rock star! Love how you took Angie's inspiration and turned it into your own distinctive look.

Angie on "Bob's My Uncle" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobs-my-uncle#post-1680671 Fri, 17 Jun 2016 19:50:52 +0000 Angie 1680671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'm humbled to have your inspired your outfit, Isabelle. I say you whacked it out the ballpark in #7. Killer. Love your cream jeans, and welcome to Team Long Neck.

(Until the last photos, I thought Angie was "Uncle Bob," though you are clearly alluding to her as well. . . . multiple allusions here, huh?) I like the blouse best with the faded jeans in 3 and the white jeans and little flats in 3. I guess I'm seeing the oversized look as more congruent with dressing down rather than dressing up. I kind of want to semi-tuck it. Do you wear that look? What about loosening the color and tie just a little bit, for a little bit of rakishness?
