Although maybe not in leading lady size. My son told me the other day that I could stand in for Mrs Claus.</p> <p>I have 7 or 8 coats, and the climate to justify them. My favourite is a red princess style.</p> <p>I have discovered non-North American Christmas movies on streaming services they are less cooke-cutter predictable.</p> <p>Although I did watch the one with Lindsay Lohan. In one scene she wore a bubble braids hairstyle that I recognized. I then wore it to my colleague's ugly Christmas sweater party, since I refused to get an actual ugly Christmas sweater. (Pic taken at end of night so hair is extra dishevelled.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297754 Thu, 22 Dec 2022 06:09:48 +0000 JP 2297754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting read, thanks Carla!<br /> I am happy that I recently ordered the "pointed-toe, block-heeled black bootie" haha, I don't have a lot of coats because I don't really need them in Los Angeles. So, I can hardly make one of those outfits without the right coat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297733 Thu, 22 Dec 2022 03:06:39 +0000 Irina 2297733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What is a Hallmark Christmas movie?

They’re perfect for wrapping presents and baking cookies by (you don’t have to pay too much attention, lol). I always notice how classic they dress. I could do the look from my closet, but I wouldn’t find true love if I did. Haha! I look like the grumpy teacher who reads their same notes from 20 years ago to her classes year after year! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297644 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 16:29:41 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2297644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun little read. I agree with Sloper—10 goats?? I’m moving &amp; only taking 2 (the rest to come eventually). </p> <p>The outfits described found a lot like mine—winters classics with lots of attention to color—except I can’t know what scenery to match. Good that I look the part because I’m practically thrusting myself into a hallmark movie, going back where I used to live and looking for the guy to sweep me off my feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297642 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 16:15:58 +0000 Suz 2297642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have never watched a Hallmark Christmas movie, either! So I have no idea what they are talking about. But <b>Bijou's </b>outfit is killer amazing!&nbsp;</p> <p>Based on my reading of the article, here are a couple of ways I might go...</p> <p><b>Outfit 1</b>. J Crew stadium coat, fluffy infinity scarf, pop pom toque, navy straight legs, red plaid combat boots, red sweater peeking out (maybe I'd have the coat artfully open or something, LOL).&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Outfit 2:</b>&nbsp; Cranberry Hilary Radley coat (knee length), J Crew Fair Isle sweater, white jeans, white boots. (I have to figure out the hat situation here...)&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Outfit 3:</b> Open Edit pea coat, J. Crew plaid pants, J. Crew red sweater, block heel navy booties, J. crew plaid scarf.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Outfit 4 </b>is only a beginning....don't you think for the fantasy finale, the Snow Queen coat should come out? My problem is, I have nothing to wear it with!&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297639 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 16:04:51 +0000 Christina F. 2297639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Tanya</b>, I used to have one of those Lady Day coats in red, back when I was poor grad student. I wanted it so much, and stalked it on eBay... but it's not forgiving in the sizing and it stopped fitting once I gained weight soon after. Now I could afford it but it's no longer my style... alas. They are gorgeous though, and I always admire them when I see them.</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297638 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 15:52:41 +0000 LJP 2297638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am proud to say I have never watched a Hallmark Christmas movie, and never will . Unless I'm in a care home and have no control over what we all watch while parked in our wheelchairs with afghans on our laps &nbsp; &nbsp;A few have been filmed here in Wpg and the outdoor sets look so cute and over-the-top . Bijou - you have the perfect wardrobe to be the star of the show! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297635 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 15:16:35 +0000 Tanya 2297635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for posting, Carla, another fun read this morning!&nbsp; &nbsp;I have several wool coats from J. Crew (in Finds) as well as block-heel booties, so could probably put a couple of such outfits together.</p> <p>Could anyone recommend some recent Hallmark movies that were especially good fashion-wise?&nbsp; I could use some eye candy over the holidays. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297621 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 13:14:32 +0000 kkards 2297621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha, Dee and I posted about the same thing at the same time </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297620 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 13:12:19 +0000 kkards 2297620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And they never ever have a puffer or ski jacket , even when they are outside making snow people or angels. Lol.<br /> And let’s not talk about the footwear. Block heels are better than stilettos but still in the actual snow what about snow boots.<br /> All that to say, I love me a hallmark Xmas movie. And part of what I love is just how unreal the whole thing is. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297619 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 13:06:32 +0000 Dee 2297619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting read, lots of fantasy fashion going on, but they don’t seem mention puffers being used in this article lol. I’d freeze in one of these movies without one. <br />My only cloth coat is a tweedy dark grey, I’d have to punch it up with my berry beret and scarf. Most of my other accessories are black, so I doubt they’d be rushing to use my wardrobe in a movie. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297617 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 12:38:36 +0000 Christina F. 2297617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always love how all the women in these movies have multiple coats, even if they are just visiting whatever small town the movie is set in.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297615 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 12:16:55 +0000 Anonymous 2297615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Where I live could easily be one of those Hallmark towns (except the usual lack of snow) :)<br /> I picture a chunky white sweater, jeans, snowboots, a knit cap/scarf/mittens (probably print), a red puffer, and holding a coffee. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297601 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 06:05:03 +0000 Bijou 2297601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Carla - challenge accepted!</p> <p>To style a Hallmark outfit, I will start with my one and only JCrew coat. To make it appropriate for the weather, I will wear it with a cashmere knit dress and a faux fur scarf and boots and gloves. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297600 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 05:58:13 +0000 Sloper 2297600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting! &nbsp;Sometimes I do wonder how the characters pack so many outfits for what starts at as only a flying trip to the old home town (but turns out to be a lifelong commitment). ;-)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-hallmark-movie-holiday-outfit-in-your-closet#post-2297598 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 05:42:17 +0000 Carla 2297598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><i></i>Here’s a fun article about dressing characters in Hallmark holiday movies. &nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.instyle.com/hallmark-holiday-movie-outfits-costume-designer-interview-6944675">https://www.instyle.com/hallma.....view-69446</a></p> <p>I&nbsp;was surprised that J. Crew, Banana Republic, and Talbots were ‘go to’ sources for outfits. &nbsp;There’s a good point about tailoring at the end.</p>
