Great minds... Can’t wait to see your new pieces in action!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077930 Sun, 17 Nov 2019 02:48:14 +0000 Jaime 2077930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is so timely for me! I just thrifted a pair of boots with a similar look to the ones you are wearing in #3, just become obsessed with the color that I think of as cornflower in your middle sweater in #2, also pulled out a yellow top to try and just tried out my version of a chore jacket for the first time. Am examing closely for all sorts of inspiration! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077837 Sat, 16 Nov 2019 16:30:48 +0000 kellygirl 2077837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the outfit love! I guess playing dress up really never gets old! </p> <p>@Cee and Rachy: Haha! So apropos--carpentry is in my blood!</p> <p>@Notsaf: Thank you. I’ve really only worn them as an adult--after discovering YLF. </p> <p>@Laura: Thanks! Yes, the sweater is Leith--the cocoon style. It was a work horse last fall/winter. Super cozy and surprisingly warm.</p> <p>@Kkards: Isn’t that funny? I call it marinating. Some things require it more than others. Glad I’m not the only one that does this. Thanks!</p> <p>@nemosmom: Thank you! It’s a fun color and I would like to get something in that color (besides my high vis work stuff) at some point. </p> <p>@torontogirl: Thank you. I think it’s the bull dog in me. I don’t like to give up--haha! </p> <p>@unfrumped and Robin: Thanks!</p> <p>@Aqua: Thanks. Glad to provide some inspiration. I hope you can get yours into rotation too. They’re too cool to let sit in the closet!</p> <p>@ChristelJ and Juniper: Thank you! I’m not adept at re-mixing but I’m hoping to get better.</p> <p>@sara, christina and fathenry: Thank you!</p> <p>@sterling: haha. Cee always makes me laugh!</p> <p>@Angie: Thank you! You have a deal!</p> <p>@Karen: Thank you. That is the ultimate compliment! Your soft brown hair suits your complexion and I think you wear the soft earth tones beautifully! &nbsp;</p> <p>@Jenn: Thank you. You have an astute eye with my very purposeful underlayer peeking out from beneath the sweater. It’s my secret weapon to break up my sweater and jean combination--it makes it look less conservative and preppy, don’t you think? </p> <p>@lisa: Thank you! The long cardigan over the dress is my default work look. It’s so easy and modest. Perfect when I’m not feeling jeans. Totally agreeing with your fitted sweater assessment. I feel the same way--in fact the only reason I tried it was because it was an Angie pick. I normally steer away from anything ribbed. It generally makes me feel like my arms are in a sausage casing. </p> <p>@AJ, Katerina and suntiger: Thank you!</p> <p>@Kathie: Thank you. Glad that you found a better sweater! Haha--I have no plans on giving up on the weights either.</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077760 Sat, 16 Nov 2019 02:53:16 +0000 Anonymous 2077760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More love for the cinnamon cardi and knit dresses! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077698 Fri, 15 Nov 2019 21:53:13 +0000 Kathie 2077698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous layered looks! The BR top didn't work for me either, but I'm not giving up lifting:). Plus, I had picked up this turtleneck at J Crew last week, and it was instant love, so it was easy to leave the BR one behind. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077697 Fri, 15 Nov 2019 21:51:09 +0000 Katerina 2077697@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These outfits are FABULOUS! I love them all. The chore jacket looks amazing on you - both the style and the color are perfect. I also love the knitted dresses on you and the mustard cardigan looks great with the dress indeed. So does the brown/red one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077684 Fri, 15 Nov 2019 21:09:31 +0000 AJ 2077684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always enjoy looking at your outfits.&nbsp; You have mastered your FFB looks and make it seem so easy.&nbsp; The jackets and cardigans are great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077667 Fri, 15 Nov 2019 19:19:59 +0000 Anonymous 2077667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the bl/wh striped dress with the red cardigan - nice work look. &nbsp;And this is what happens to me with fitted-ish sweaters like that. &nbsp;If I size up to an L, the shoulders are too wide, but the upper arms finally feel comfortable. The body is too loose, but the waist/hip band is better. &nbsp;On and on. I give up on those sweaters. That colour is pretty cool on you though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077664 Fri, 15 Nov 2019 18:38:27 +0000 Jenn 2077664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE your cardigan-over-knit-dress formula. &nbsp;And your perfect, nonchalant styling with a bit of shirt peeking out under your sweaters. &nbsp;You're the FFBO formula queen. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077663 Fri, 15 Nov 2019 18:33:54 +0000 karen13 2077663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just gorgeous in everything. As always! I want to be you! These outfits and Angie’s blog post today on dark monochrome make me want to dye my hair black.

Love the way you style your dresses. Its helpful to see the BR merino sweater on. I'm considering it because I always need more warm sweaters and it would go with so many different outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077600 Fri, 15 Nov 2019 15:11:36 +0000 Christina F. 2077600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>You look great in all these (shame about the ribbed sweater though).

Very impressed by your jackets, knit dresses and the lovely cardigans. It sounds like you were enjoying the remixes... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077585 Fri, 15 Nov 2019 14:35:08 +0000 Aquamarine 2077585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great looks! The dresses especially look fab. But you really wear it all well and you know what works for you. Taking notes on how you wore the moto. I have 2 leather ones in my closet that aren’t getting much use in my suburban, work-at-home life. I like how you’ve dressed yours down and softened it. I’ll have to play around with mine and stop “saving” them for the right occasions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077566 Fri, 15 Nov 2019 13:06:15 +0000 RobinF 2077566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits as usual! Love the sweater over the dress - works great to my eye. And love the Cons with your jeans. Too bad about the BR sweater, I think it looks great on you but see what you mean about the shoulders being a little snug.</p> <p>I well know the feeling of "have I made an expensive mistake?" and so happy that the answer is NO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077561 Fri, 15 Nov 2019 12:58:41 +0000 unfrumped 2077561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit creations!<br /> I love that cinnamon cardigan outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077558 Fri, 15 Nov 2019 12:46:53 +0000 Helena 2077558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So good, and I love your attitude about variety and not giving up on things so easily. Taking lots of inspiration from you Kelly! The chore jacket looks so good, and I actually love the yellow on you; it doesn't look right to me but of course if it's not a heck yes, then it's a no! You've also inspired me not to completely give up on my last year Merino sweaters from BR, although the fit on mine is not as nice as yours (I should've sized up). Anyways YLF as always Kelly! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077557 Fri, 15 Nov 2019 12:35:21 +0000 nemosmom 2077557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the yellow is fab on you!

The warm yellow and brown are my favorite fall colors. It's such a departure for me since I've avoided earth tones for years. I think it has to do with my hair color changing--it seems more flattering than it used to. I am going to try the moto with a dress--maybe my eye has adjusted to the hard edge vibe and it won't look so odd to me. Might try this tomorrow if the weather cooperates. I'm in the office all day again. Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cooler-weather-wiw-and-br-fail#post-2077514 Fri, 15 Nov 2019 06:42:33 +0000 slim cat 2077514@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely collection of outfits! I like your dresses - especially patterned ones. The &nbsp;warm yellow cardigan ( almost soft coat ) and cinnamon brown one are great on you - maybe your favorite colors for fall?<br />The jacket in #1-2 - &nbsp;perfect layering option in sunny California.&nbsp;<br />You should wear your moto jacket more - it's great on you ( may be over some dresses?..). </p>
