The jacket was sold as is- no pants. And even if there were - they would not be coming home with me ....let's just leave it at that &nbsp;I am NOT a suit wearer. &nbsp;As for work, I am a manufacturers' sales agent/rep based in Canada, and I work primarily in home decor, small &nbsp;furniture, giftware and fashion/fashion accessories. &nbsp;I'm in my mid-50's &nbsp;- thank you for the compliment &nbsp;Retirement ? No such thing for me. &nbsp;My husband will likely retire in a few years and move to something part time, but I'll likely die selling something to someone . &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126/page/2#post-1866119 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 18:22:56 +0000 Violettt 1866119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi LisaP</p> <p>Love love everything in your outfit! And wow your pics are so nice and organized, and your post was so great! &nbsp;Love the blazer, did you buy matching pants? &nbsp;It sounds divine! Thx for showing everything! &nbsp;You are so cute, how old are you? And may I ask what do you do for work? I'm retired now, so I just dress for miscellaneous stuff nowadays.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126/page/2#post-1866096 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 17:09:46 +0000 Anonymous 1866096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It was the jacket's website that touted the company as being for millenials. &nbsp;I know this is not a millennial outfit &nbsp;Thanks every one for your positive comments - I think I may wear another version of this outfit today with a different top and pearls this time - ha!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126/page/2#post-1866075 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 16:13:30 +0000 LaPed 1866075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, the star motif here? I love it. Also the lips and nails.&nbsp;</p> <p>This doesn't read as "millennial" to me at all. Of course, I'm 31 and I don't wear slashed jeans, oversized aviators, leggings-as-pants, etc. I also don't live in a metro area anymore, and mostly I interact with people quite a bit older or quite a bit younger than myself, so my perceptions may be completely off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126/page/2#post-1866063 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 15:51:53 +0000 JuniperGreen 1866063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chiming in again to say that powder/dip nails are my new love!!! I find them to be hardier than gels alone, and removing them is easier on my nails! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126/page/2#post-1866046 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 15:20:27 +0000 Sara L. 1866046@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great!&nbsp; Also, nothing like the millennials that I work with.&nbsp; They all want to wear jeans and flat sandals every day.&nbsp; It's a struggle to get them to understand that skinny jeans are not work appropriate except on casual days.&nbsp; Oh, and that leggings are not pants.</p> <p>I love the star necklace and earrings with the t-shirt.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126/page/2#post-1866034 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 14:28:59 +0000 RobinF 1866034@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this whole look! I have been adding a few jackets to my wardrobe and struggling a little bit with how to make them look not-too-conservative, if you know what I mean. They remind me a bit too much of my old days at the CPA firm, with suits and panty hose which just isn't me any more. I am going to study this for hints. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126/page/2#post-1866022 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 13:42:47 +0000 Bijou 1866022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There is no way you should be changing your style, this is perfection! I love a red lip and have no intention of changing that as I get older. I did for a while experiment with a nude lip colour, but it really was not me. Your make up is always beautiful and this lip colour looks great. I am adoring the new bag, very chic indeed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126/page/2#post-1866015 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 12:27:19 +0000 bella 1866015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What? A denim suit jacket? What a great idea! And it looks 100 times better on you than on the model </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126/page/2#post-1865998 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 07:26:03 +0000 Gigi 1865998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have hit perfection with this outfit!

You look like a great version of yourself. A denim suit jacket ! Be still, my heart! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126/page/2#post-1865966 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 03:24:56 +0000 Jaime 1865966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like Suz, I am not seeing the Lisa dressed as millenial thing. You look like you (and you look fab) and there is nothing at all that seems like you stole it from your daughter and shouldn't have. My daughters (almost 13) steal from me all the time. So phooey on that. (I also like vintage words.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126/page/2#post-1865965 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 03:21:19 +0000 tulle 1865965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nobody does boyish-and-tailored-with-an-edge better.&nbsp; This is a great look, comfortable and assured. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126#post-1865961 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 03:03:47 +0000 Anonymous 1865961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz- the scarf is a lot different than what I expected and I likely would have returned it if it didn’t mean costing me so much to do so ( almost as much as th scarf itself I think ) It’s fuzzy and does shed little hairs and gets gripped by a cloth coat . It also has a lot of the pale blue-y gray - which I didn’t notice in the stock photo . I’m just glad I didn’t pay much for it . Sorry to be a downer about it .....I’m not quite sure why I ordered it to be honest . Caught up in a moment . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126#post-1865959 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 02:54:10 +0000 Suz 1865959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab outfit, Lisa! I'm in love with the scarf too and had debated ordering it...might see if it's available in TO when I am there on the weekend. The jacket looks great, and I want to hear more about the booties.&nbsp;</p> <p>IMO this is totally age-appropriate. But what do I know?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126#post-1865944 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 01:33:35 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1865944@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’d much rather dress like myself than like (people think) my age (should be dressed). You look great. I sometimes question whether I look like an oldster trying to be a teen, which I don’t think is attractive. If that’s what you’re worrying about, you can stop right now, because this outfit is nothing remotely close to that. </p> <p>Btw, you like Vans shoes; the current item motivating me to lose weight is a Vans dress I’ve visited the last couple times I was at the mall. When the M fits, I can get it. <a href="https://www.vans.com/shop/womens-clothes/shine-on-ribbed-dress-burgundy" rel="nofollow">https://www.vans.com/shop/wome.....s-burgundy</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126#post-1865943 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 01:29:04 +0000 anne 1865943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit Lisa, and I love that bag! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126#post-1865935 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 01:04:00 +0000 Aida 1865935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa you have such a great eye for finishing details; your hair, makeup, nails and jewelry are always soooo fab and on point (clothes too, of course, but these finishing elements take your outfits to the next level). Fantastic outfit. The burgundy printed scarf is a bit unexpected but works really well! I like the bits of lightness it adds. Hah to the jacket. Looks like a piece that can be worn at any age. Good find </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126#post-1865933 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 00:58:49 +0000 Chris987 1865933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>.....what everyone already said....and again.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126#post-1865932 Thu, 07 Dec 2017 00:52:59 +0000 Anonymous 1865932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie.

The Millenial jacket looks pretty cool. I love the silver nails. Of course I would, wouldn't I? I love all things silver.</p> <p>Please stop saying you're as far away from a Millenial as possible, because that means I must be dead or something. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126#post-1865879 Wed, 06 Dec 2017 21:41:24 +0000 Anonymous 1865879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You all make me laugh. I'm dead serious about the Juvederm. But it's so bloody expensive I rarely allow myself to do it. It lasts for quite awhile (5 months or so) and totally boosts up the outline of my lips so lipstick doesn't go all over the place, but I need to be feeling loaded with $ in order to do it. &nbsp;</p> <p><b>Janet </b>- chrome is a powder (looks like a shimmery loose powder eyeshadow) the aesthetician rubs on with a sponge over the gel manicure. It gets top-coated and cured again under the UV light, and comes in a bunch of colours (I stick to the basic silver- it works on every colour) &nbsp;I'm not sure it's a &nbsp;a do-it-yourself kinda thing. &nbsp;I get my nails done every 3 weeks - I did the chrome last time over grey polish and it was stunning ! &nbsp;Nails are a non-negotiable for me, right up there with hair. My hands are right in front of people all the time - pointing, showing, writing, etc etc - and I have crappy nails and cuticles. &nbsp;This solves the problem and keeps my cuticles tidy and nails always looking good.</p> <p><b>Jill </b>- yes, Pixie Mood have great non-leather bags. They are a Canadian company, and I'm working on adding them to my agency, hopefully this coming year;) &nbsp;(don't tell the current rep that though , ha). &nbsp;The prices are just right, and the styling is current and interesting. Quality is great for the price too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126#post-1865877 Wed, 06 Dec 2017 21:28:18 +0000 Style Fan 1865877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it all.&nbsp; Such a great jacket.&nbsp; I love denim everything.&nbsp; I have never tried gel nails.&nbsp; Or juvederm.&nbsp; Maybe there is hope for my dried up lips. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-dandy-goes-to-work-wiw-126#post-1865869 Wed, 06 Dec 2017 21:03:58 +0000 jill58 1865869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, I forgot to mention, I'm intrigued by Pixie Mood as a source of good looking vegan "cruelty free" handbags. Although I've been a vegetarian for nearly 30 years I've never been able to give up leather. How does the quality seem? I really like your red crossbody. So great with your current ensemble. </p>
