I have missed your outfits. The lilac coat is wonderful and your burgundy navy combo is pushing me to keeping a navy scarf I just got. Burgundy and navy has been my favorite for the past few weeks - your outfit is is a stellar example of why. Oh and we are earring twins - I love those and think it was you and Sterlings comments that got me to buy them during NAS.

I love the fringey scarf on you Suz and the butterfly scarf reminds me of an AllSaints pattern. You look fabulous all around! merwoman on "Colour, pattern, texture, shine" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colour-pattern-texture-shine#post-1867341 Tue, 12 Dec 2017 01:54:59 +0000 merwoman 1867341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wonderful to see you Suz!

What an unexpected and super fun color for winter. And how did I miss the denim shirt with mother of pearl buttons at J Crew? I love pearls, I love denim shirts, I love J Crew (well, not so much since Jenna left, but that shirt is a beauty).

I loved her WIWs and her wonderful insights. I knew "color, pattern, texture, shine" sounded familiar--now I'm not sure whether I heard it from Shannon or Angie! You look fantastic, Suz. This outfit is gorgeous on you. I love the cool mix of colors especially.

Weren't her daily outfit posts the best??   Shannon, I hope you are lurking here!!! See how we miss you???? Thank you everyone. I was so lucky to get this coat last year. It was on super sale -- I think I paid just over $100 for it, right before Christmas? Around then. It has been a real delight. It looks a bit snug in the photo but actually it was just bunching up because of static against my sweater, which is annoying but what can you do.  Funnily enough, on the subway I sat across from a woman wearing the same coat in olive. She didn't notice.  Barbara Diane, I wonder what it might be. These are what I'd call casual but polished looks, which is my typical for city dressing. (At home in Kingston I'm even more casual, alas...)  Elizabeth, good to see you, too! Lisa, the new pants are simpler. On me they are full length (they say cropped, but heck, they're not really cropped even on the model). Side zip, which I like. Pockets on the side might pose problems -- I have to test that out. So far, they're smooth, but will it last? But the fabric quality is really nice and so is the colour -- a sort of greyed navy.  Mary, I ADORE this scarf. It was the most inspired gift ever.

There is something about how you look that exemplifies something I want in my style. deb on "Colour, pattern, texture, shine" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colour-pattern-texture-shine#post-1867177 Mon, 11 Dec 2017 18:10:07 +0000 deb 1867177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love these outfits!!

It's so good to see you post again. Your coat looks so nice with your hair! Suz, I copied you with the boots, and I wore mine yesterday with a grey outfit. Suz on "Colour, pattern, texture, shine" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colour-pattern-texture-shine#post-1867091 Mon, 11 Dec 2017 15:23:29 +0000 Suz 1867091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Those are old Kit and Ace pants I'm wearing but I think I'm going to retire them because they have rose gold hardware and with my silver hair I am not feeling it. In other respects I like them -- they're great travel pants because they feel a bit dressier than jeans but are easy to wear. I can't remember the name of the style but it's the ones with the funny zippers on the bottom back and pleats on top -- you were supposed to wear them dropped crotch but I actually sized down and wear them at my waist and cropped.  I just bought a new pair of navy ones, simpler in style, and side zip -- we'll see how they do. I like the stretch wool. I think these will replace those, if you know what I am saying.  Anonymous on "Colour, pattern, texture, shine" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colour-pattern-texture-shine#post-1867079 Mon, 11 Dec 2017 14:50:27 +0000 Anonymous 1867079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love this!  A fun mix of things going on here - and the coat is stellar.
