Thank you for mentioning me. I adore the color scheme in your outfit, so seasonless and classic. The fabrics make the pieces very seasonally appropriate. Your experiment is very interesting, and I'm looking forward to the roundup.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/getting-dressed-project-day-5#post-1383150 Sat, 25 Oct 2014 08:22:08 +0000 Anonymous 1383150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cross posted Neel.

It's been a great exercise for me. </p> <p>Good question Denise. I find I can usually get 2 wears from a pair of white jeans unless disaster strikes. I'm not particularly careful and tend to forget they're white. I did however take one precaution yesterday at lunch when I had beetroot in my chicken salad so I wore an apron to eat my lunch! I could really do with another pair of white jeans which I'll start looking for in the new year.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/getting-dressed-project-day-5#post-1383148 Sat, 25 Oct 2014 08:19:14 +0000 Neel 1383148@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That peacoat is seriously the best color and cut on you!

That teal is your color (I have similar coloring...one of my favorites too) and I adore it with white.&nbsp; Wearing white virtually year-round is opening up SO many more outfit options, and it seems to kick up a work-from-home outfit just a notch too, I'm finding!&nbsp; And that handmade peacoat? Absolutely stunning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/getting-dressed-project-day-5#post-1382875 Fri, 24 Oct 2014 22:16:47 +0000 Anonymous 1382875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Astrid!</p> <p>Aww, thanks Angie!

So, on to day 5 and I've been having a blast this week!</p> <p>I was inspired by Ingunn post yesterday :&nbsp;<a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-when-in-doubt-add-white" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....-add-white</a>&nbsp;for my outfit today, thanks Ingunn! I knew I wanted a darker tone top and white with black boots on the bottom, so I started with my teal drape neck sweater then added white jeans. I&nbsp;introduced a little interest with the studded belt, a silver necklace and a chunky-ish ring with teal on it. First thing this morning I needed a quick whizz by the grocery store and to get fuel and I also had to pop out to a client so my topper of choice was the grey peacoat that I made earlier this year and I used my spotty bag again and I put my Fidji booties on my feet.</p> <p>For the first time this week I won't actually be keeping this outfit on all day long, as this evening DS and I are going to a very early Halloween party which my friend does every year, so I'll be donning some suitably dark, sinister colours and my devil horns! DS will be a zombie!</p> <p>I'll be doing a round up post over the weekend and may include a weekend outfit too and I'll share my musings and conclusions&nbsp;for this project. Thanks for following along with me :)</p> <p>Have a great day thanks for looking and comments and suggestions welcome.</p>
