The bright white belt is a great finishing touch. Your look is casual but put-together, just right for summer. Thanks for posting, I'll look forward to more. (Note to self, shop for belts) Ledonna N. on "Hello, Thank You and WIW" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-thank-you-and-wiw/page/2#post-1684554 Fri, 24 Jun 2016 07:04:37 +0000 Ledonna N. 1684554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hello Marya it is great to virtually meet you. We like when you are comfortable and fashionable ( ummm legs for days). I like the pop of white in the belt and the pretty shoes. Be careful on the tub shots. I love it and cannot wait for more.

I like your shorts outfit with a semi-tuck. The shorts fit so well--a nicely relaxed fit that remains neat looking. I think someone should get you a full-length mirror for your birthday, or whatever occasion you can dream up. It's such a great style tool! I'm bad at taking hand-held camera photos, too. For WIW photos, I set my camera on a stairwell railing that is about waist-high, aim it at the doorway in front of which I will pose, and I set the timer. I guess you can't do that with a phone, but if you have a regular camera, maybe it will work for you, too.

I love your hair and smile, and the clothes are a perfect daily casual I think. And wow, you do look like Suz! Glad you are joining in. MaryA on "Hello, Thank You and WIW" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-thank-you-and-wiw#post-1684340 Thu, 23 Jun 2016 20:53:53 +0000 MaryA 1684340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Bonnie -I just loved my Dorothy Hamill cut too. It was the first cut that made my masses of very straight and very thick hair look intentional. Rachylou - Thank you, I can't think of two better people to resemble.  BrieN - Thanks about the legs - no its not weird at all, I understand the intention behind the compliment :). I have always looked young for my age - I used to have people assume that I was my daughter's teenage sister and I was 30 years old! Suz - In that case you are my official big sister - I've never had one before. Parkinson's (or a variation) may run in my family too. My mother's half-sister died of complications from the disease. But I have had it for 12 years and am considered to be the "medical miracle" at the university neurology department where I am treated due to the fact that my symptoms have never worsened. Murph11 - Kohl's mens department is my go to place for inexpensive belts. This one is officially a golf belt and my DH, DD and I all have the same black leather dress belt! Maneera - Thank you. It's more a question of finally getting a picture where nothing is blurry and then when I do get a clear picture I usually have some odd look on my face because I'm concentrating so hard on not moving! Inge - I'm glad Angie's thread convinced me too. I've been meaning to for such a long time and this was just the push I needed to get started. RobinF, kkards, Sara L, delurked, Style Fan and kimlee - Thank you all for such a warm welcome. kimlee on "Hello, Thank You and WIW" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-thank-you-and-wiw#post-1684304 Thu, 23 Jun 2016 20:01:48 +0000 kimlee 1684304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You are simply beautiful.

Love it that you've paired the shorts with loafers, and the white belt is such a good finishing touch.

And, THANK YOU for the tip of shopping men's for a white belt! I've been looking and looking for a replacement without any luck, and now my options have doubled!

Suz on "Hello, Thank You and WIW" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-thank-you-and-wiw#post-1684205 Thu, 23 Jun 2016 17:20:29 +0000 Suz 1684205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ No...I still beat you!! :)  It's true!  Here's something spooky, too...when I was 18 months old my mother actually gave birth to a stillborn baby girl.  Gulp.  Very honoured and humbled to be a style icon to anyone. Sheesh. You have been here long enough to see my early posts. (Runs blushing to the corner).   Anyway, I can certainly see that we have some qualities in common. BTW, Parkinson's is also in my family! I have been very fortunate but two uncles have had this.  BrieN on "Hello, Thank You and WIW" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-thank-you-and-wiw#post-1684202 Thu, 23 Jun 2016 17:15:00 +0000 BrieN 1684202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This is a great outfit for summer weather and you look amazing in it. Full disclosure, I moved from my phone to my computer to see the photos better because I was doubting my eyes. Did you say 54? I had you much younger. I hope it's not weird to say but you have great legs and the proportion of those shorts is really good on you.  kkards on "Hello, Thank You and WIW" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-thank-you-and-wiw#post-1684194 Thu, 23 Jun 2016 17:02:33 +0000 kkards 1684194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ this is the perfect summer outfit!

You *do* look like Suz. And RoseandJoan to me. I love your hair and your casual outfit there works well. Totally button cute. Oh right, and Hello!

It's hard to get post-worthy pictures isn't it! For me it's the lighting and mirror in one spot.  Maneera on "Hello, Thank You and WIW" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-thank-you-and-wiw#post-1684162 Thu, 23 Jun 2016 16:18:44 +0000 Maneera 1684162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh my, you're super cute!!! Seriously.... I've never seen anyone look so casually fab in a simple tee & shorts! You have an adorable smile and fab hair. And I like the photo! I don't see 'blurry' at all. Thanks for posting, Mary. I hope to see you more often.

Tina - thank you for the warm welcome! Suz - I have always considered you my style icon on YLF, I am honored to be your long-lost sister but I think that at the ripe age of 54 I'm actually your big sister, not your little sister.  Shevia - thanks and may I say I have always loved your hair style! Colette - waving back from Geneva. BC - hi back at you! Diane - thank you. I am by default a gifted tub balancer :). Thanks for the hair compliment - I've been a pixie girl since my Dorothy Hamill stage in the seventies.

You look so good. Thanks for posting. Colette on "Hello, Thank You and WIW" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hello-thank-you-and-wiw#post-1684105 Thu, 23 Jun 2016 14:44:23 +0000 Colette 1684105@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Waving to you from the Northern Suburbs! You look casually fab! It took me a few years before I posted a picture too. My life is also very casual and even more so in the summer. I ditto what Suz said, 'it is easy to have great style when you get "dressed up" but harder to look put together in shorts and a tee. But you do.' Looking forward to more of your casual WIW's.
