Send some of that surplus winter out west. We could really use it!

The colors are just beautiful with you hair. I like it with the scarf and also with out . I think with the clutch no scarf though. rabbit on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464465 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 20:41:54 +0000 rabbit 1464465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ It's a great look!  (like all of yours ) I really like the indoor version and the outdoor version with the clutch and w/o the scarf is smashing.  (Although I think the scarf works too, maybe with a low contrast bag to make it more the focal point). merwoman on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464464 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 20:36:18 +0000 merwoman 1464464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'm holding you to that promise Staysfit!

I Tomorrow will bring warm weather, sunshine and my Crocus flowers! :-). merwoman on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464454 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 20:11:37 +0000 merwoman 1464454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Carla - you deserve your moment in the sun. Soak it up 'cause you know what's waiting for you ;-)  Shoes are booties from Aldo from a few season ago. AM and FC  - appreciate your kind comments. Even with the cold I ended up leaving off the scarf. Funny how you can change your mind about accessories. Have to give credit to CBC radio for the Marchuary moniker though :-) Oh dear Cheryle - hopefully the problem is easily solved! I'm thinking we will need a gov't sponsored program on how to deal with the heat...if it ever warms up! Count your blessings Amy!! Above freezing would be balmy indeed! hehe Deborah! I need to remind myself that once the heat of the summer arrives, I'll be wishing for a little coolness...especially for sleeping. And thanks for the 'security' warning :-) I think that's it Diane - there's enough going on already with the coat, nice to simplify everything else.

I love it! Such a chic, classy outfit, with a touch of edge. I have a minor preference for the look without the scarf and I think it's because of the pattern on your coat and the cleaner lines. Ooh, Donna...lucky you! Deborah on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464289 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 06:47:13 +0000 Deborah 1464289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ What a fab outfit!  And here I am willing Winter to arrive in Aus!  That coat is so stunning.  You better keep it close because I am willing to be Gryffin might just fancy that for herself amiable on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464277 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 05:19:38 +0000 amiable 1464277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look terrific Sue!  I'm sorry it's so cold up there - it's chilly here, 37F, but at least above freezing! cheryle (Dianthus) on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464259 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 03:43:23 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1464259@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love the whole outfit but that coat is truly fab.   I woke up at 3:00 and realized the sump pump had been going for some time.  It seems that the pipe that was reconnected when it was spring a few weeks ago, had frozen solid.  Perhaps we will go straight from Marchuary to summer.

I like the outfit with the scarf. I like how it echoes the colors in the coat. I know I wouldn't be wearing it without the scarf indoors, either, in Marchuary! (Fun month name you coined there.) AM on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464238 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 02:36:11 +0000 AM 1464238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love it all. And yes, I prefer it without the scarf. You look beautiful in that icy blue/gray sweater. And that coat with that sweater is such a wonderful and unexpected pairing. Nicely done. Carla on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464230 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 02:17:02 +0000 Carla 1464230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ LOL! Sitting on the balcony (awesome Wifi) listening to the show at the resort next door. I'm bushed from an active day, but the music is just a bit too loud to allow for zzz's. Don't hate me...because it is 28degC in the Carribean! Your boots are? merwoman on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464225 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 02:04:52 +0000 merwoman 1464225@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Please post photos!!! And keep it under lock and key...or better yet, 'wear' it permanently...easy enough to do with that handy strap!

Perhaps a limo that is going to take you to the airport where you will board a plane for a warmer climate?? MTBGirl on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464219 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 01:42:14 +0000 MTBGirl 1464219@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think it looks great with or without the scarf. Feeling your cold weather pain, but on the bright side........... my package delivery is supposed to happen tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!! merwoman on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464213 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 01:25:44 +0000 merwoman 1464213@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thank you Tulle and I feel your pain! I'm hoping that  by 'pretending' to enjoy this arctic blast, Mother Nature will be tricked into restoring spring. merwoman on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464211 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 01:19:42 +0000 merwoman 1464211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ ha Deb - I am dreaming of warmer weather!  I've got the heated mattress pad warmer turned up to max...I think that's the only way we'll see 85! Are you back Suz? You must be regretting the efficiency of the Canadian embassy in getting your passport replaced Light blue pjs sounds positively risqué!  Keep warm!!! Thanks AJ! You are so right - I'm lucky the clutch goes with everything since I can't risk leaving it home alone ;-) tulle on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464206 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 01:13:41 +0000 tulle 1464206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hmm . . . I just washed my overworked ivory parka, preparing to put it away, only to find that I will be wearing it, resentfully, yet again tomorrow, so I am too consumed with envy of your stunning Max Mara coat to comment on the scarf issue!  Honestly, you do look fab. Both ways. AJ on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464204 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 01:08:45 +0000 AJ 1464204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Very nice!  I think I like it best without the scarf too.  Well you are forced to use that citron clutch daily because Angie and others are waiting to pounce on it!  :) Suz on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464199 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 01:05:16 +0000 Suz 1464199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I am SOOOOOO with you!  Except you look 500% better than I do tonight. I gave up and put my PJs on.  (They ARE light blue...does that make them ensemble worthy???)  Seriously, this is a fab combination. The coat is killer gorgeous and I am jealous. The clutch adds a bit of hope for spring. I like it without the scarf, but in this weather you are justified in wearing the darn thing...and it looks good with it, too.  deb on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464191 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 00:57:14 +0000 deb 1464191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ 'Marchuary"..., lol, glad I am not there. We are at 85F today and I am loving it. You look lovely. merwoman on "If you can't beat it..." https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-you-cant-beat-it#post-1464190 Sat, 28 Mar 2015 00:55:47 +0000 merwoman 1464190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Welcome to 'Marchuary"...-11 degrees celsius  this evening! I could whine and be justified in doing so, but decided tonight that I would look at this as an opportunity to wear one of my favourite 'winter' outifts. How many more chances will I get ...she said through gritted/chattering teeth? Cashmere sweater from Jcrew, GAP True skinny pants, Max Mara coat...and for a touch of spring - citron clutch :-) Typically I have worn this outfit with a scarf...but I think I'm preferring the clean lines without  a scarf? Do you ladies have a preference?  And what are you wearing during this prolonged winter?
