I think my favorite outfit is the third one with the orange (red?) jacket. And I'm drooling over those black button boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/business-casual-week-2#post-125932 Mon, 15 Feb 2010 14:12:00 +0000 christie 125932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone for your comments.</p> <p>There were quite a few comments about the pants-length. For the record, I was pulling up my pants in that photo to show my shoes. My pants hit at the right length.</p> <p>Thanks Queenie! I've actually been a long time member of the forum, just not a frequent poster! I wish I were more involved, but I can only come on the weekends and (like today) holidays! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/business-casual-week-2#post-125846 Mon, 15 Feb 2010 02:38:22 +0000 Queen Mum 125846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hi Christie- welcome to the forum! </p> <p>I really liked the outfit in picture 5 (the red/pink cardi over the print blouse) that was such a fun and youthful outfit! </p> <p>I was wondering the same thing about the close up pic- your pants should almost touch the floor so those look to be too short for those shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/business-casual-week-2#post-125834 Mon, 15 Feb 2010 01:57:14 +0000 taylor 125834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Christie, You have a clear idea of what works for you and I admire how you are not afraid of color!!!! Turquoise and grey are just stunning on you. Nice week:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/business-casual-week-2#post-125758 Sun, 14 Feb 2010 19:39:01 +0000 AJ 125758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Christie,<br /> I luv how you add a pop of color into each or your outfits! You have a classic sense of style with fun mix of colors. I thought all the outfits were fabulous! Do you have a white/pearl necklace to wear with the outfit on 2/3? Angie had a post how that med blues look great with black and white. I really like those black boots!<br /> You're doing a great job. Is it possible to take the pics without the flash so you don't get the red eyes? Or maybe direct your eyes to the opposite end of the camera, away from the flash.<br /> Looking forward to more pics! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/business-casual-week-2#post-125755 Sun, 14 Feb 2010 18:59:11 +0000 janetinvirginia 125755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Christie,<br /> 1) I love the teal color shirt peeking out from the purple turtleneck. It's a wonderful color.</p> <p>2)The gray dress looks a little sacklike.The blue sweater is very nice. I think it's a nice dose of color for the winter.</p> <p>3)Another fantastic color combination! Great necklace, too.</p> <p>4)Very warm and comfortable-llooking. That jacket fits you well.</p> <p>5)The hot pink sweater and turquoise necklace add oomph to the black and white.</p> <p>I wish I had your color sense! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/business-casual-week-2#post-125754 Sun, 14 Feb 2010 18:58:47 +0000 Kristine 125754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know it's sometimes hard to see a photo of yourself, but to me you look thin and very pretty! In fact, I'm envious of your hourglass figure, you have perfect proportions. I really like your style too, classic, but the color combinations make it funky and fun! </p> <p>What is the close-up photo of the boots with the pants? My only suggestion is that the pants might be too short, but I didn't see that in the outfit photos so without seeing it in context I'm not sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/business-casual-week-2#post-125738 Sun, 14 Feb 2010 18:11:34 +0000 christie 125738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Last week I posted the previous week's work wardrobe. I enjoyed reading everyone's comments and suggestions. I really appreciated what you had to say. I didn't get the chance to respond to everything. Unfortunately, I can't spend time on the forum during the work day, and after 12 hours (or more) on the computer for work, the last thing I want to do is come home and play on the computer. But I do enjoy reading on the weekends! </p> <p>Here are some outfits from last week. This past week, we, like most of the country, were hit with snow and cold weather, so I wore pants all week, whereas I normally am a dress or skirt gal. Except, on Tuesday, I dressed in pretty casual, funky clothes (a dress over leggings) since the whole town was basically closed, and I knew most of the staff and no clients would be coming into work. </p> <p>Again, I hate each of these photos. Anyone have any tips on a) not looking so ugly and horrible in photographs (I am still reeling over how much weight I have gained, which I haven't noticed because of the dearth of photos I've had taken of me) or b) how not to have "red eye" which I seem to be plagued by?</p> <p>Thank you all so much for flagging any fashion no-nos on what works or what doesn't.<br /> <a href="http://s511.photobucket.com/albums/s358/christieYLF/YLF%20Outfits/?action=view&#038;current=DSCN1815.jpg&#038;newest=1" rel="nofollow">http://s511.photobucket.com/al.....8;newest=1</a></p> <p>Pass, if requested, is onlyforylf </p>
