What an honor to have an outfit copied!<br />Mary, I knew you'd pick a colorful outfit as your fav :)<br />Thank you JAileen, dapperme, Windchime, and Diane.<br />Runcarla, thank you for the comment on the 'do.<br />Firecracker, I also have a soft spot for all home sewn items. It's the first thing I look for in your and Diane G's posts!<br />Viva, I think I love just about everything JCrew sells! It's nice to go into a store where most things just fit right off the rack. The striped and polka dot shirt in their new catalog has me thinking I might need to go there today... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1704289 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 14:09:14 +0000 Anonymous 1704289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely to see you Karie...and looking great too! All are fab looks with nice variety. I think I'm going with 1,5, 8 and 10 as my faves. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1704103 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 03:31:07 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1704103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a treat--a great collection of fun, colorful outfits! I really like 5--and that gorgeous necklace completes it perfectly! And it's probably no surprise, I have a soft spot for "self made floral denim skirt"--it fits beautifully, of course, and I like the idea of floral denim. It looks like a piece you'll have a lot of fun pairing with other pieces in your wardrobe. Kayaking on the lake looks beautiful and serene. Summer vacation at its best! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1704052 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 02:23:15 +0000 Windchime 1704052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really nice to see you again! You've kept up your chic, fun style, and this set of WIW's is the proof! I bet your students love the gecko (frog?) necklace and all of the bright colors you wear so well. And your kayaking photos are gorgeous! I especially love your patchwork jeans and how you've styled them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1704030 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 02:00:02 +0000 Carla 1704030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Missed you, Karie. Glad to see tourmWIW post. Like the closer to head 'do and outfits #3 and #10. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1704020 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 01:49:42 +0000 dapperme 1704020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>5 and 9 looks good on you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1703661 Wed, 27 Jul 2016 17:09:47 +0000 viva 1703661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Karie! How nice to see you, your pup, and your kayak! :)</p> <p>I love 3 and 10 especially. 3 made my laugh when I saw where the gorgeous top was from: JCrew! Of course I loved it!!!! And that froggy necklace is fantastic. 10 is also really wonderful. It has a certain flair about it that really sets it apart -- sort of an artistic sensibility that I really love. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1703600 Wed, 27 Jul 2016 15:41:52 +0000 JAileen 1703600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kayaking looks wonderful! All of your outfits are stylish, but my favorite is #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1703351 Wed, 27 Jul 2016 03:40:16 +0000 MsMary 1703351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my gosh! These are all just stellar! My fave is no. 13 with the fun colors! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702963 Tue, 26 Jul 2016 20:03:45 +0000 catherine 1702963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them all, but am certainly going to copy #5. You make all of these clothes look so put together, effortless, and stylish. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702637 Tue, 26 Jul 2016 12:21:47 +0000 Karie 1702637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Bella, you are allowed to say that (all day and loudly too!)!&nbsp;</p> <p>Sky, I couldn't decide - open or closed - so I did what I usually do, half the time I wore it open, half the time I wore it closed.</p> <p>CZ1, thanks for your input on white sweater vs. gray. Interestingly enough, I thought I was going to like the gray better (I wore it first), but after wearing both, I much preferred the white.</p> <p>UmmLila, that lavender top gets compliments every time I wear it. They had a dress in that same pattern and I almost bought it instead, but I'm glad I chose the top.</p> <p>Alexandra, thank you, the necklace is multicolored pearls from JTV.</p> <p>Thank you Sarah and Tammy. That chambray tunic is a just right weight "soft vs. stiff" fabric, and will work for spring-summer-fall.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702636 Tue, 26 Jul 2016 12:19:56 +0000 RobinF 1702636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are great! I think you do the casual looks especially well. My favorites are #2, #5 and #10. Love the patchwork jeans and silky joggers. Agree about summer - we have to get out there while we can! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702605 Tue, 26 Jul 2016 11:35:13 +0000 bella 1702605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>wow, you look so fab in #5!!! Am I allowed to say that this outfit makes you look young? In a very good, fashionable way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702586 Tue, 26 Jul 2016 10:51:18 +0000 skylurker 1702586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My faves are #2 and #10 - the most pleasing proportions, to my eyes.<br /> I prefer the jacket #5 open. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702559 Tue, 26 Jul 2016 08:47:41 +0000 lyn67 1702559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great to see your wiw's, Karie, and they are all well done, but wow, 5,8,10,13 are my faves, and agree, patchwork jeans are amazing especially with &nbsp;the conventional white tux-super fab!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702420 Tue, 26 Jul 2016 02:23:01 +0000 Tammyb 1702420@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#10 is my absolute favorite! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702407 Tue, 26 Jul 2016 01:55:39 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1702407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is so great to see you! You look fantastic in each of these! If I have to pick a favorite, I'd have to go with #10. It is really wonderful to see so many outfits all together! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702265 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 22:37:36 +0000 Alexandra 1702265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits, and OMG cool kayaking pics! I especially like the jeans and necklace in #5. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702261 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 22:30:46 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1702261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like that lavender top in 3 and the whole outfit in 5 -- glad to see you posting, but I agree that when summer is short you have to make the most of it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702231 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 21:56:30 +0000 crazyone 1702231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I especially love outfits #1 and #5! &nbsp;The patchwork jeans are amazing. &nbsp;I prefer the track pants with the lighter sweater. &nbsp;You wear white so well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702229 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 21:54:59 +0000 Karie 1702229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Laurie, Lake George is a fun place, isn't it? It gets a bit touristy in the summer months, but I don't mind that too much. Plus there are lots of outlets to shop at...</p> <p>Rachylou, I wasn't sure about #8, it's kind of dark for me. And yea for a &nbsp;summer of fun! I worked all last summer and decided not to do that this summer. Next up, roller coasters in NJ and then a trip to Adirondack Extreme to do a ropes course and some zip lining.</p> <p>Angie, no Cosmo or Callie this time. Callie hasn't been kayaking yet, but Cosmo loves it so I'm sure she will to, since she wants to do everything her big brother does!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702159 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 20:22:57 +0000 Laurie 1702159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That #5 really is a showstopper! &nbsp;I also like the track pants in #1, with the white top and pumps. &nbsp; &nbsp;Lake George! &nbsp;I was there many years ago. &nbsp;So pretty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702097 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 19:10:54 +0000 rachylou 1702097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>2, 5, &amp; 8 are my faves! Yay to a fun filled Summer </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702094 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 19:01:45 +0000 Angie 1702094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>THERE YOU ARE.&nbsp;</p> <p>You are a cutie, Karie. No Cosmo or Callie in the kayak this time?&nbsp;</p> <p>You look wonderful in all these outfits. #1, 5 and 10 are my faves.&nbsp;</p> <p>#5 is Killer. SO gorgeous on you. Nice lace and patch juxtaposition.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702035 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 17:40:31 +0000 Karie 1702035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Suz! The track pants gave me some pause, I'm not sure I like the proportions in the pics, but IRL I think they look better with a shorter top. Too much fabric around the mid-section otherwise.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1702025 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 17:16:41 +0000 Suz 1702025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kayaking pics are so beautiful!!&nbsp;</p> <p>I really like the grey track pants on you. Outfit #10 is just lovely on you -- simple and fresh. And #5 is fantastic!! What a great juxtaposition! You look amazing in the white.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1701987 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 16:42:40 +0000 Karie 1701987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, SF, KG, and Bonnie. The patchwork jeans and white blazer is one of my favorite outfits too. And bonnie, I am trying to get as much kayaking in as possible on these gorgeous summer days we're having!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1701938 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 15:17:42 +0000 Bonnie 1701938@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All great outfits and my favorites are #10 and the kayaking photos - what a fun way to spend the summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1701929 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 15:07:31 +0000 kellygirl 1701929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great to see you! I love that floral print with the black pants. I always think of black/white having the most impact but lavender is a great pairing too. The white blazer with the patched jeans is my fave of the lot. SO fun, crisp and playful. You wear white so well--the white jeans with the popover top is awesome on you too. I'm a little envious of your kayak--now that looks like fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-long-time-no-wiw#post-1701890 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 14:15:34 +0000 Style Fan 1701890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great looks Karie.&nbsp; I love your jewellery.&nbsp; So many interesting pieces.&nbsp; Great patchwork jeans.&nbsp; Enjoy the kayaking.&nbsp; It looks lovely. </p>
