As I get older I think brights are even more important to give me some life .<br />My goodness <b>Kyle</b> you made my day with your comment. I don't know about a book, but you might have inspired a very long post , thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra/page/2#post-2324295 Thu, 25 May 2023 16:05:16 +0000 Kyle 2324295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love #4. The color near your face is so pretty, and the combination with the bottoms is nice. I like the idea of thrifting as a way to get designer or very high quality pieces for less, and to reduce environmental impact. I’ve just never had any luck. You have perfected the process and should write a book for the rest of us, Jaime! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324276 Thu, 25 May 2023 11:08:05 +0000 Staysfit 2324276@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jaime, all these outfits are amazing. &nbsp;My fave is outfit 4, which you identify as the least “extra” but your shoes, earrings, armband, and bag are perfect accessories and make the outfit. &nbsp;I love the color of the top, it makes your face glow. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324262 Thu, 25 May 2023 05:41:42 +0000 Sal 2324262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Look 4 is especially stunning on you but honestly the other looks are good as well.&nbsp; I like your elegant refined footwear with slouchy pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324257 Thu, 25 May 2023 01:21:48 +0000 Jaime 2324257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Angie</b> - and virtual hug in the meantime !<br /><b>RobinF</b> - #1 is definitely growing on me due to everyone's enthusiasm, thank you!<br /><b>The Cat </b>- I agree with you! I was actually trying to figure out what I have that might match that color.<br /><b>phoebe</b> - Thank you!<br /><b>Bonnie</b> - Definitely will be remixing that outfit, thank you!<br /><b>LJP</b> - Well your fab looks don't look miserable at all. But then again I am not nearly as smiley as you might assume from my pictures.<br /><b>Suz</b> - Oh thank you for your observant eye and kind comments. I have gotten my hand on a few Tibi pieces, mostly online second hand because they aren't distributed here, but this was a surprise find at a charity shop.

I can understand about the discomfort of carrying the bag in #1, but dang, does it ever look great! Love that top on you and I actually quite like the sandy pants with the bone-beige accents elsewhere. Plus, your hair is looking great, so...</p> <p>Love those R13 pants and the fisherman's sandals -- wow! I wish I could make out the details of the Tibi top more clearly. I can't even imagine finding such an item at thrift. I mean...wow.&nbsp;</p> <p>#3 is like my unexpected "match" -- so fun!&nbsp;</p> <p>And sure, #4 may be less "extra" but it's also extra great, so there is that!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324226 Wed, 24 May 2023 17:29:37 +0000 LJP 2324226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is fun !

Maybe try the cute sandals in #2 with outfit #3 and carry a lighter bag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324214 Wed, 24 May 2023 15:43:27 +0000 phoebe 2324214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1 and 4 lovely and elegant</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324207 Wed, 24 May 2023 15:20:34 +0000 The Cat 2324207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE the fun pants in #3. That blue colour is lovely on you. (Just an idea: These pants would also look great matched with peach somewhere else in the outfit--perhaps blouse, bag or scarf.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324185 Wed, 24 May 2023 14:14:35 +0000 Angie 2324185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*hoping over from Greece to hug you and borrow shoes*</p> <p>;) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324177 Wed, 24 May 2023 13:29:28 +0000 RobinF 2324177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits!

It is so nice to be able to discuss my little experiments .<br /><b>To everyone who mentioned the first bag</b> - The bag is not horribly uncomfortable perfectly fine for carrying to a restaurant or even an office where it mostly just sits there. But my days are usually a combination of things and when I am walking around I prefer a bag that leaves my hands free.&nbsp;<br /><b>kellygirl</b> - Thanks! I see everyone is divided on those shoes, glad you are a fan!<br /><b>Jenni NZ</b> I hear you about the shoes - I happen to like both delicate and stompy shoes, but understand that most people have a preference.<br />Thank you <b>Bijou</b> - I almost always default to jeans so this was a fun way to remind myself I have other options.<br />Thank you <b>Debbie</b>, <b>Slim Cat</b>, <b>Brooklyn</b>, <b>suntiger</b> and <b>Dee</b> - your comments are very appreciated!<br /><b>Sharan</b> - Glad you like my chunky shoe choice!<br /><b>lyn67</b> - You are right I did have a practical reason - actually two. The pants are a bit long on me and the shoes gave me the extra height and the shoes are new to me and I wanted to test them out!&nbsp;<br />What a nice thing to say <b>Sisi</b>, thank you!<br /><b>kkards</b> - thank you and yes, the floral pants are really outside of my usual wheelhouse, you are right!&nbsp;<br /><b>Runcarla</b> - the neckline is what sold it for me too<br /><b>Olive Green </b>- Thank you - yes, I agree about color near my face.<br />Oh <b>Janet</b>, you have no idea .</p> <p><b>Angie</b> - I think my next extra might need to be bag focused. I was hoping to tempt you to jump over from Greece to steal my shoes !</p> <p>ETA Wow, thank you <b>Helena</b>!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324165 Wed, 24 May 2023 12:44:49 +0000 Helena 2324165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jaime, you look fantastic in all of these!

Your bag collection is truly amazing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324156 Wed, 24 May 2023 11:31:22 +0000 Olive Green 2324156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yup, said Wow when got to the coral top. Also like that lavender blue colour on you in number three, maybe with a more delicate supporting act?&nbsp;<br />Voting for colour for you near the face, it really is lovely.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324153 Wed, 24 May 2023 11:16:45 +0000 Carla 2324153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bag love for #1, so sorry to learn it’s uncomfortable to use. &nbsp;The top in #4 captures my eye. &nbsp;The neckline is intriguing. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324152 Wed, 24 May 2023 11:11:21 +0000 Dee 2324152@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice extra extras, my fav's would be oufits # 1 and # 4 although I do like those plaid pants and sandals in # 3. Shame about the bag being too heavy in first outfit because it does look great with it all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324149 Wed, 24 May 2023 10:59:09 +0000 kkards 2324149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>4 great outfit—-you get EXTRA credit</p> <p>that bag in #1, omg fab. Too bad it’s not comfortable to carryv and the white fisherman, so fab. &nbsp; Have I ever seen you in light florals before? And on bottoms? So extra! And the color combo in #4, no black or navy…that counts as a big extra in my book. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324144 Wed, 24 May 2023 10:24:52 +0000 Sisi 2324144@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I cannot choose a favourite! All these outfits are so interesting, the colour combinations and the silhouettes are beautiful - you look fab!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324141 Wed, 24 May 2023 10:14:36 +0000 Anonymous 2324141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another fan of 1 and 4! Not too extra at all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324140 Wed, 24 May 2023 10:07:31 +0000 Brooklyn 2324140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous! My faves are 1 and 4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324136 Wed, 24 May 2023 09:02:31 +0000 lyn67 2324136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them all, wow, so many great "no jeans" outfits with pants here! Love the shoe choices as well, but feel they are heavy in nr 3 for the floral and lighter colors---but you know better, why you choose them,-it surely was a reason behind that (rain, edgyness, or comfort factor, etc...just curious?). nr 1 is my fave, there the mix of neutrals is unexpected (browns with blacks, but I also do this on occasion, and love) so great looking with your hair- but really all very inspiring!! Top in nr 4 is charming, too!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324131 Wed, 24 May 2023 06:24:15 +0000 slim cat 2324131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun summer "no jeans" looks! Love pic#4 - gorgeous on you ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324126 Wed, 24 May 2023 03:31:38 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2324126@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all great looks. I can see your points, but wouldn't have come up with them myself! I think those chunky slides are really cool-looking, and I would wear them with that outfit, which may be my favorite here. That blue on you is stunning, and I love the flowy blouse and super fun patterned pants. Party pants! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324125 Wed, 24 May 2023 03:27:39 +0000 Debbie 2324125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it all! Especially the top in 4. All the bags are amazing and the shoes in 4 are great.</p> <p>Your hair is gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/extra-extra#post-2324117 Wed, 24 May 2023 02:58:13 +0000 Bijou 2324117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - these all look great to me and I LOVE the bag in #1 too, such a shame it is uncomfortable to carry. The top in #4 is stunning on you and #4 is my favourite look too. A no jeans challenge can be tricky, you have succeeded in great style. </p>
