It was an early f/w purchase and has turned out be be great - very versatile but WAH friendly.<br />Cin Fern -&nbsp;I have the buffalo check on but kind of cheated - I wore something else for client meetings and then changed into it. I will see about snapping a photo<br />Jewell - the olive pants were very much outside my comfort zone. I purchased them about 4 weeks ago and have worn them at least 4 times. Given I have no bottoms it is kind of a must. But they have been much more versatile than I would have thought.</p> <p>thanks for all the kind words. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fallwinter-purchases#post-1090188 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 14:38:51 +0000 Lisa 1090188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It sounds like you purchased a great new capsule for yourself!&nbsp; I always own more tops than bottoms. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fallwinter-purchases#post-1089719 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 00:57:12 +0000 E 1089719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sorry you're feeling down Glory. But good for you buying new trousers that fit you properly instead of suffering in the old ones! Your list looks a wonderful mix and match wardrobe, and I love the dog sweater! Maybe adding a scarf to the buffalo check sweater will make you like it more? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fallwinter-purchases#post-1089603 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 23:48:11 +0000 Jewell 1089603@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You did a fair amount of replenishing- your list looks good. So are you all done for fall/winter? I see olive skinnies on your list. I have a pair in my online shopping cart right now. I need to follow your lead and buy some more sweaters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fallwinter-purchases#post-1089600 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 23:46:55 +0000 Peri 1089600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have done so well! I'm nowhere on mine.</p> <p>I'd love to see a picture of the grey lace sweatshirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fallwinter-purchases#post-1089586 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 23:34:09 +0000 cinnamon fern 1089586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're going to post a pic of the buffalo check sweater tomorrow, right? &nbsp;Right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fallwinter-purchases#post-1089481 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 21:49:58 +0000 Thistle 1089481@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like a terrific refresher.</p> <p>I hear ya on pants. Unforgiving beasties!&nbsp; They were designed to torture us, you know. Or increase trouser sales!! </p> <p>"Oh, put on 5 pounds have you (insert evil laugh here). Well, my pretty, now you have to buy all new pants!!"&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fallwinter-purchases#post-1089467 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 21:39:27 +0000 Makrame 1089467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I love the doggy sweater! &nbsp;Great color, too! &nbsp;I always buy some new sweaters and knit tops every fall. &nbsp;I used to think I should restrict my knit top purchases but then I realized that fall is actually a good time to discard some tired-looking knits from the previous season. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fallwinter-purchases#post-1089412 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 20:53:31 +0000 Glory 1089412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the positive words. When I am feeling a wee bit down I always feel better when I post here. The extra weight has me pretty unhappy - it is really why I feel I cannot post any pics.<br />I also forgot I added a cream cable knit sweater.<br />The buffalo check &nbsp;- the checks make me feel larger. I don't know. Tomorrow I will wear it with my jeans and combat boots - pinkie swear :).&nbsp;<br />Here is a stock photo&nbsp;of the doggy sweater. I love it and have worn in a couple of times already since buying it 2 weeks ago. I think it is a bonus that&nbsp;my son thinks the dogs look angry &nbsp;lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fallwinter-purchases#post-1089396 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 20:44:02 +0000 cheryl 1089396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like some great purchases. How come you haven't worn the Buffalo Check sweater? I want to see a pic of the doggy sweater </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fallwinter-purchases#post-1089334 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 20:04:38 +0000 Suz 1089334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This sounds like a great wardrobe refresher. It seems that you and I both went heavy on the knit tops this year. I felt as if I really needed cozy knits for cold days.&nbsp;</p> <p>It's pretty enlightening to do this sort of inventory, isn't it. I think it may come in handy next year for comparison.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fallwinter-purchases#post-1089326 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 19:58:32 +0000 LACeleste 1089326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Glory! &nbsp;Your sweaters sound super cool and up to date and I bet the combat boots are great too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fallwinter-purchases#post-1089324 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 19:55:50 +0000 Glory 1089324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did a fair amount of shopping especially in tops because I purged almost everything. I did try&nbsp;to interpret Angie's recommendations for the most part. I have only included what I kept and sadly I made tons of returns.
