So that was the stare for, I'm sure:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/enough-already#post-1248492 Sun, 11 May 2014 12:12:28 +0000 krishnidoux 1248492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You did very well despite your limited footwear choices!

Wow, I am humbled. Thank you! Sharon, it was one of those stares where it wasn't obvious but I could "feel" her eyes on my. This was the first time I met her so of course we were talking a lot - I found out&nbsp;she's a fashion major and she loves water sports, so…lots to chat about. When she told me she was a fashion major, that's when I REALLY felt self-conscious!<br />Ladyone and Joy, when I bought the blazer I said, "I really have no place to wear this!" and now I'm wearing it anywhere and everywhere! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/enough-already#post-1248444 Sun, 11 May 2014 06:36:18 +0000 Gigi 1248444@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a very funky outfit! The tennis shoe looks intentional and really adds a fun flair to the outfit. VERY fashionable, imo. And the blazer looks so great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/enough-already#post-1248427 Sun, 11 May 2014 05:58:42 +0000 Ledonna N. 1248427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are rocking that blazer, loving that top also. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/enough-already#post-1248404 Sun, 11 May 2014 05:13:06 +0000 Deborah 1248404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you did brilliantly Karie. Personally I find your styling here quite inspired. You look fabulous. And I must tell you that you look amazing in white! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/enough-already#post-1248377 Sun, 11 May 2014 03:59:16 +0000 Sharon 1248377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great. I love the way the shoe(s) echo the T-shirt.&nbsp;I think younger folk can sometimes be surprised when us oldies manage to dress ourselves in a contemporary, fashionable way and I bet that was what was behind the staring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/enough-already#post-1248367 Sun, 11 May 2014 03:43:29 +0000 Suz 1248367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>SO </b>2014!!!!!

Love the graphic tee- so funky!<br /> I suspect your 'other nephews girlfriend' was probably wondering 'how does this woman look so gosh-darn good in a boyfriend-style blazer, and where can I get one.....?' </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/enough-already#post-1248347 Sun, 11 May 2014 03:16:08 +0000 columbine(erin) 1248347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that blazer, wear away!

I think you did a great job putting your outfit together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/enough-already#post-1248339 Sun, 11 May 2014 03:10:39 +0000 Karie 1248339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're probably thinking, "Is that all she ever wears anymore, that white BDBG blazer?" I wasn't going to wear it tonight, but it just sort of jumped out of the closet at me. Tonight's event was a casual dinner at a local restaurant for my nephew who is home from Marine Reserve basic training and leaving Monday for 9 months.&nbsp;Here's how this outfit came about:</p> <p>I am very limited in my choice of footwear. The only shoe I can stand to wear is my Converse Hi-Ness wedge because it has about the same heel height as my surgery shoe. Anything else gives me a terrible back ache. I have no other shoe with the same heel height, except for a winter boot&nbsp;(too warm out for that) and a summer sandal (too cool out for that).</p> <p>With my shoe dilemma in mind, I tried to make this outfit a bit funky. I added the graphic tee, then couldn't choose between two blazers, asked DH, and he chose the BCBG. It looked too dressy with the sleeves down, so scrunched was the way to go.</p> <p>I'm still not sure if the outfit worked, but for better or worse, it's what I wore. All evening long I kept feeling like&nbsp;my other nephew's girlfriend was&nbsp;staring at me, which made me feel like my outfit must look completely wack-a-doo, but then she piped up and said, "I really like your blazer!" so that made me feel better! </p>
