I wish my first one was so nice. Sigh. Well, I can speak from experience that YLF is a great resource and posting your pictures is ever so helpful. That's a great sweater. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828453 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 14:28:40 +0000 cinnamon fern 828453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fab - welcome!

Cute outfit! </p> <p>Even if you don't post pics here at YLF, taking them for your own record is amazingly helpful! It's always surprising to me what I notice on my pics that I couldn't see in the mirror. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828433 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 14:09:33 +0000 moira 828433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks great. It think this sweater would be a perfect candidate for pattern mixing with a scarf, animal print or floral, maybe? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828429 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 14:05:00 +0000 Anonymous 828429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute look, and welcome to YLF WIWs! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828423 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 14:02:38 +0000 Anonymous 828423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome.

Love the stripes, and what great boots. I think you look fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828367 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 12:50:00 +0000 Glory 828367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome - you are looking very fab. Love those boots and can see (in your other post) why you need that style in your wardrobe as the colour and length is perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828307 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 08:41:20 +0000 lyn67 828307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome to WIW! You did a really good job with that longer length sweatter and long necklace- most flatering combo for styling some leggings, and stripes are allways trendy:-). Next time, necklace can be replaced with a long scarf, adding some color next to your face, maybe in a coral? That will also elongate the lines, AND (here is the trick!:-)) it can also hide a bit of tummy (note for your pretty self, don't worry about that too much, you have full rights to have some, with such a small baby:-)). YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828304 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 08:23:15 +0000 rae 828304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super cute!

I have only been here a few weeks myself, but I am LOVING the objective feedback on my WIW's and the insights I get on my own outfits by relooking at the photos I have been taking! </p> <p>I think your outfit is lovely. I think the proportions are good, and the boots and tunic look great together. </p> <p>Look forward to seeing lots more from you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828294 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 07:36:58 +0000 deb 828294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations on your first WIW. It does get easier the more you post. You look great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828290 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 07:29:54 +0000 jayne 828290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats on the first post! It is quite the hurdle, but now watch out, we expect more! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828255 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 05:29:50 +0000 Amy 828255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome! That sweater and those boots look amazing together. Well done! It's hard to get out of a black wardrobe rut, isn't it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828244 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 05:03:03 +0000 Nadya 828244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute outfit! I just discovered Eloquii last year. It never occurred to me to window shop at The Limited - so smart! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828237 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 04:49:06 +0000 abc 828237@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Joy, you make a good point. Bookending is something I learned about on YLF, maybe that is why I like those boots so much! Now if I could just find the perfect replacement pair!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828232 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 04:40:40 +0000 Anonymous 828232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations on your first post! I can see why you want something like those booties. From what we can see of your hair, they are close to the same color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828226 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 04:27:15 +0000 abc 828226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone, for all of the hellos and feedback. </p> <p>Anna, I will try the outfit with a white button-up underneath, you have a point about the skin color near the face.</p> <p>Beth Ann, YES! I have had great luck with Eloquii. Their sizing can vary widely from item to item, so I find that sometimes I need to order various sizes and try on/return later, but I have been happy with everything I have gotten there. Good quality fabrics and on-trend looks, but not over the top (if that makes sense). I just realized that they carry regular sizes of many of the styles in The Limited so now I can just go to the B&amp;M store for a preview of items then order the plus size online. They are also opening some "boutiques" in B&amp;M The Limited stores but I think there are only a few.</p> <p>Thanks again and I will try to post more WIWs...being a WFH new mother I am lucky to get out of my loungewear most days, but I am working on it thanks to YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828211 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 04:12:00 +0000 Beth Ann 828211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice to see you, ABC, and congrats on your first WIW. I encourage you to keep posting regularly, at least for awhile. I found that the more the forum got to see of my current style, the more helpful their suggestions became.</p> <p>Love your sweater, here! Classic, but on trend. The leggings are a beautiful color, too! Do you have good luck with Eloquii? </p> <p>This is the year to find new boots! Lots of great deals out there! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828200 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 03:53:08 +0000 Anna 828200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute outfit overall. My only suggestion might be to wear some other color at the neckline, under the tunic. It's just a personal preference, but I don't like to see clothes that are skin-toned so close to the face. Maybe try a blouse under the tunic? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828199 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 03:50:55 +0000 kellygirl 828199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome, abc! So nice to *see* you and congrats on your first post. I agree that YLF is a great place to get ideas about accessible fashion. Your outfit looks great. I love the striped tunic and the cognac booties. So stylish! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hi-and-my-first-wiw-190113#post-828196 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 03:44:04 +0000 sarah 828196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations on your first WIW! You look very stylish and put together. I can see why you need to keep those boots or something like them in your life. </p>
