I almost bought the pink and red tartan jacket, but they sold out of my size. Hopefully this jacket fits because returns to the US are tedious. At least I know the shirt and scarf will fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157217 Wed, 02 Dec 2020 05:05:12 +0000 Jessikams 2157217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good lord, that dog is cute. Squeeeee!</p> <p>I love the J crew bright pink and red tartans. But the fit has been way off on my last few orders with them, so I maybe to hold off on j crew for awhile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157200 Wed, 02 Dec 2020 02:37:41 +0000 Bijou 2157200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tartan is in the air - so great to see what everyone is buying!</p> <p>Minaminu - lucky Margot cannot answer back because I think she probably would (most correctly) blame me for my purchases.</p> <p>Fashintern - when you live in Australia and have our hot summers, a bit of cold weather is a nice change and opportunity to pull out the jumpers, scarves and coats.</p> <p>Jenna - I am looking forward to wearing the three pieces together but see each item individually as being useful.</p> <p>Nemosmom - that green is beautiful - but I don't need any more jackets and will enjoy seeing it on Brooklyn instead.</p> <p>Delurked - I know what you mean about certain patterns - it is similar with buffalo plaid for me, a bit too casual and masculine for my style.</p> <p>Angie - I love that shirt on you (and Jane) - so I knew that the shirt would be a winner. LOVE your tartan trousers.</p> <p>KKards - that jacket was the alternative I was debating - I love that one too and so glad that I will get to enjoy seeing you wear that.</p> <p>Suz - You and Angie are going to ROCK those tartan trousers.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157115 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 18:03:29 +0000 Suz 2157115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are adorable and so is Margot! I love a good Tartan! And the same pants as Angie's are on the way to me, ha ha....plus a tartan scarf.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157114 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 17:31:30 +0000 kkards 2157114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My cyber week purchase was also Jcrew plain! Must be in the air. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157108 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 17:20:22 +0000 Angie 2157108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You and Margot are SO STINKING CUTE! I love how you stylish lasses influence each other Excited to see you style your new loot.&nbsp;</p> <p>I love tartan too! I have the same tartan shirt, and the red tartan pants are on the way. My new navy Hobbs jumper is a hit too.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157066 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 14:39:29 +0000 delurked 2157066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love a good tartan. You are both looking good. For some reason, I seem to like this better on others than myself, but love the pattern and how it mixes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157065 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 14:37:30 +0000 nemosmom 2157065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Both you and Margot will rock tartan! I can't wait to see how you style it!</div><div><br /></div><div>(Apologies to Brooklyn for the sweatshirt intro!!) ;). That jacket is SO pretty!&nbsp; It would go nicely with tartan! Hey, Bijou, do you need a jacket?! :D<br /></div><div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157043 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 12:39:48 +0000 Anonymous 2157043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful pieces. I think they’ll look amazing together or separately.</p> <p>I, too, love Tartan &amp; have Scottish heritage. :)</p> <p>I’m with y’all regarding no heat on.<br /> I run very dry and heat is problematic, so no matter how cold it gets (28f last night), I just adapt my clothing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157041 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 12:15:08 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2157041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p> <div>Go, Margo!</div><div><br /></div><div>Those look like fun pieces to wear together or separately. Looking forward to seeing them. And I'm impressed at your fortitude not to heat the house at those temps--that's what it is in Germany now, and we've had ours on for weeks! It helps me keep up with the laundry, as I hang it to dry to help with the humidity. <br /></div></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157040 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 12:11:34 +0000 Minaminu 2157040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Margot, you temptress!!! Love the tartan jacket, it's a classic pattern that works all the time and can easily be dressed up or down!</p> <p>Fab outfit, as always!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157027 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 10:01:16 +0000 Bijou 2157027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachy, Lilypup would rock tartan. My Great Aunt used to wear her family tartan, however it was an obscure tartan and not particularly attractive so I am happy to go with this one.</p> <p>Liesbeth, that is one of the perils of YLF.</p> <p>Brooklyn, your jacket is a wonderful score, such a gorgeous colour for you and Nemosmom. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157024 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 09:28:29 +0000 Brooklyn 2157024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also did some shopping @J Crew over the weekend! I got the Regent jacket in green (I already have it in black) and a green sweatshirt.</p> <p>I blame Nemosmom! I saw the sweatshirt because of her. I went to look at the sweatshirt again then saw the jacket. I was toast. </p> <p>The jacket was only 80AUD. Great quality for the price (assuming it’s similar to my other Regent jacket).</p> <p>I love your tartan jacket so much! Lucky I did not spot it at the time. I am a bit tempted :)</p> <p>Today’s outfit is stunning too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157021 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 08:46:43 +0000 Liesbeth 2157021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done, making tartan work for your climate! Now I have to pry myself away from that dress Bonnie shared... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157009 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 03:37:15 +0000 rachylou 2157009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Spiffing! Lilypup prefers a tartan herself. We have some Scots too. We thought we were McFarlanes. A cousin checked and we’re not Can’t trust those front porch genealogists. Lol! I miss being a McFarlane, hahaha. Good motto. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157005 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 03:24:05 +0000 Bijou 2157005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shevia - yes it can be cold when there is no heating in our houses. I always feel that it is too extravagant to put on the reverse cycle air con when I am the only one in the house in winter, so I just wear warm layers.</p> <p>Bonnie - that is a pretty dress and you can't argue with the 40% off discount at the moment.</p> <p>Sal - Margot is a sweetie and only really cares about being fed, getting cuddles and walks. Margot is a typical terrier, taking her good looks for granted.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157002 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 03:13:26 +0000 Sal 2157002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha fun!!&nbsp; Margot is such an influencer isn't she.....</p> <p>Your today outfit is great too.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2157001 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 03:10:09 +0000 Bonnie 2157001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These tartan items look great and I hope they work for you. I checked JCrew after seeing your post and found this tartan dress that I'm tempted to buy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2156999 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 03:07:48 +0000 Jaime 2156999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am glad we aren't the only ones that face chilly interiors during our mild winters, and for the same reason. Love your jacket and skirt combination in your picture and have high hopes for your new tartan pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2156998 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 02:54:23 +0000 Bijou 2156998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nuancedream - it is fun to co-ordinate with Margot and she was made to wear tartan.</p> <p>Slim Cat - this JCrew jacket is about 5 years old and I wear it often. It has worn like iron and is beautifully made - one of my best purchases. I have high hopes that this jacket will be similar.</p> <p>UmmLila - so glad you bought Reed the safety vest to keep him safe. Your matching hat and gloves are a great addition. My skirt is by an Australian designer Kit Willow - her brand is Kitx.</p> <p>JAileen - your boys have the best collars. I am hoping to wear my tartan jacket with the Westie shirt you recommended too, it is one of my favourites and gets worn often with Margot in tow.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2156996 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 02:28:03 +0000 JAileen 2156996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay for tartan! &nbsp;I love your choices, and think buying out of season is smart because sometimes it’s hard to find. &nbsp;Both of the boys here have Tartan collars - Stewart plaid for Mr Skunky, and Black Watch for Bob Barker. (not their real names). &nbsp;Bob is a Jack Russell, and even though he’s not Scottish, his brother is, and they are brothers of different mothers. &nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2156994 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 02:22:18 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 2156994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that skirt. I think you could have filed this one under Accessories Complement. I bought Reed a highlighter pink safety vest for hunting season as we’ve been in the woods a lot. And I have a matching beanie and gloves. I just haven’t managed a proper photo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2156990 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 01:59:20 +0000 slim cat 2156990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look wonderful in your J Crew jacket - love metallic accents on the bag as well! Can't wait to see your matching outfits - Margot will be so cute in tartan ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2156989 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 01:53:19 +0000 nuancedream 2156989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&nbsp;I can't wait to see you sporting your tartan plaid purchases, Bijou. With Margot in tow with her matching harness, you two will be too cute to be legal. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-blame-margot#post-2156987 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 01:44:09 +0000 Bijou 2156987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm blaming Margot for my Black Friday tartan purchases which will be put away for next Autumn and Winter. I plan on buying Margot a co-ordinating harness because there is nothing cuter than a West Highland White Terrier wearing tartan.</p> <p>I have always loved tartan and have some Scottish heritage from my Mother's side of the family. In my younger years I had a number of tartan clothing - a red kilt at university, a black watch tartan suit that was a work horse in the 90's when I started my professional career.</p> <p>The J Crew tartan collection seems to tick the right boxes for me. Smart enough to wear on work conference calls and fun and casual enough to wear walking Margot.</p> <p>I will be working from home over the winter months and in Australia, we don't heat our houses much, which are designed to stay cool in summer and not deal with cooler conditions. My house is chilly when outside temperatures range from 2 - 15C in our cooler months, so wearing a jacket inside is required. Having a matching scarf is likely to be a useful third piece.</p> <p>Hopefully the fit is good - I have placed my order, sizing up one size on the blazer because it was a 'shrunken fit'. One of my favourite 'wear with anything' jackets is by J Crew, so I am hoping that this piece will be a workhorse.</p> <p>By the time the package arrives, we are likely to be in Summer weather and I will think I was mad. However at the moment we are experiencing cooler weather and so I am wearing my blazers and jackets.</p> <p>Finds - the three tartan purchases and my old very useful  J Crew jacket that I am wearing today. </p>
