I Must admit it felt really great to wear a dress for a change and making an effort to wear some other pieces that don't get much action was a reminder to WEAR MY CLOTHES. I think it's time for a little closet purge so that some of my gems don't get lost in all the volume.

And #3 is just WOW! That tweed moto is fantastic and I love the soft grey tones. Like your flares, too!

Wow! What an amazing jacket! That wrap dress is beautiful on you - between you and Thistle and Ingunn you are all making me envious that I can't wear a wrap dress! I'll have to live vicariously through you stylish ladies I guess. carolbee on "It's a wrap for VDay and a couple other WIW's" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-a-wrap-for-vday-and-a-couple-other-wiws#post-851125 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 23:50:34 +0000 carolbee 851125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Carole, all of these outfits look lovely.

A lucky man, your DH, who had a date with you. I particularly love the booties with the dress, prefer that to pumps x 1000. Your flared jean looks very chic, too - I really like the new looser trends, and they are really comfy, don't you agree? The last outfit is modern, crisp and looks so effortlessly pulled together! sarah on "It's a wrap for VDay and a couple other WIW's" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-a-wrap-for-vday-and-a-couple-other-wiws#post-851050 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 22:25:54 +0000 sarah 851050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wow, Carole - you're hittin' 'em out of the park.

What is your secret? These are each beautiful looks, so it's hard to choose a favorite. Seeing #1, I want those Pettys in black.

I love your style. The flares looks all fixed up and ready to rock, just like you. That tweed moto is really a nice iteration of a moto jacket. Very cool!

Yes it is nice to wear flares for a change, I plan to pull mine out soon. I noticed that flares still made it on Shopbop's list of top 10 denim trends for Spring. <a href="http://www.shopbop.com/ci/4/lb/denimtrends/spring-2013-denim-edit-021313.html#page=3" rel="nofollow">http://www.shopbop.com/ci/4/lb.....tml#page=3</a> Anonymous on "It's a wrap for VDay and a couple other WIW's" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-a-wrap-for-vday-and-a-couple-other-wiws#post-850865 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 18:47:36 +0000 Anonymous 850865@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Agreed,#1 is fantastic! #2 is great with the splashes of red and I just love the 70's vibe in #3.

I forget how much fun it is to wear dresses, must do it more often! Angie, Thanks for the boost today! I really did feel great wearing all these outfits, even the 70's look was fun. Mixing red and purple was a little brave but I loved the happy colors together. Angie on "It's a wrap for VDay and a couple other WIW's" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-a-wrap-for-vday-and-a-couple-other-wiws#post-850852 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 18:39:17 +0000 Angie 850852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ #3 steals the show. Wow! KILLER And #1 is just gorgeous too! Perfect for Valentine's Day. #2 has a great relaxed '70s feel to it jenanded on "It's a wrap for VDay and a couple other WIW's" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-a-wrap-for-vday-and-a-couple-other-wiws#post-850848 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 18:35:22 +0000 jenanded 850848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yes that wrap dress look is just beautiful... the others are so cool... feeling a much more feminine vibe coming through with all this lust for frocks inspired by Ingunn Carole on "It's a wrap for VDay and a couple other WIW's" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-a-wrap-for-vday-and-a-couple-other-wiws#post-850847 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 18:34:24 +0000 Carole 850847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Why, thank you, Tanya. I am so happy to have an alternative to my skinnies. Looking for more variations this spring and summer, anxious to try the Gap skimmers! Tanya on "It's a wrap for VDay and a couple other WIW's" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-a-wrap-for-vday-and-a-couple-other-wiws#post-850845 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 18:31:32 +0000 Tanya 850845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Carole, that first outfit is absolutely stunning! What a perfect VDay outfit! Hope you got a lot of compliment from DH as you certainly deserved them The other to outfits are beautiful as well. The flares are a nice change, aren't' they? Carole on "It's a wrap for VDay and a couple other WIW's" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-a-wrap-for-vday-and-a-couple-other-wiws#post-850841 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 18:27:32 +0000 Carole 850841@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ 1) Had an excuse to dress up for Valentines Day as DH was taking me to a quaint french restaurant so I decided to wear my BR wrap dress after being inspired by Ingunns recent thread here: <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wrap-up-your-weekend---explore-your-wrap-dress" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....wrap-dress</a> I am sporting my "Angie recommended" clutch, SE Petty booties and some new textured tights that have sort of a linen look, black cardi and skinny black patent belt. 2) I just got these Fit and Flares (at least I think that's what these are) back from alterations. They were just a little too long and one leg was oddly longer than the other and dragging slightly on the ground. All fixed up and a nice change from the 24/7 skinny routine. 3) Meeting a friend for coffee and shopping and wearing: Tweed Moto-Nordies Animal print tie blouse-Loft Always Skinnies=Gap Zac Posen Bag SE Petty Booties. Thanks for looking and any and all suggestions for improvement appreciated.
