I like the symmetry of that challenge with the cardi one. Looking forward to the checked shirt too—it is do easy to let things fall into a rut and only be worn with certain partners. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/june-challenge---my-10-pieces#post-2199391 Tue, 01 Jun 2021 04:24:08 +0000 Anonymous 2199391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, I love all the pieces you picked! Super excited to see how they pair. I would gladly raid your wardrobe The red dress doesn’t strike me as too boho, though I suspect the model’s super trendy heels and pixie haircut help give it the non-boho edge. Anything to make it look less precious! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/june-challenge---my-10-pieces#post-2199378 Tue, 01 Jun 2021 02:38:03 +0000 Bijou 2199378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So much love for the velvet suit. I bought it online sight unseen and was so happy it fit me. It is a label that I know and love, but still, a risk.</p> <p>Started day 1 with the pleated skirt - thought it was good to start with one of my tougher items and YAY - I like wearing it. Which just goes to prove that this is going to be a worthwhile exercise for me as I most likely would have just popped on my jeans again today. I will post each Saturday the week's outfits and it will be great to get feedback. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/june-challenge---my-10-pieces#post-2199364 Tue, 01 Jun 2021 01:47:58 +0000 Jaime 2199364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Watching you style these fabulous pieces will be a treat!

Also, I am hoping that you can help me with styling suggestions. </p> <p><b>My 10 pieces</b></p> <p>Top of the list - <b>pink velvet jacket and pants </b>- this was my wildcard purchase for winter. Now I work from home, I can buy fun suits. However, I LOVE this so much, I am a bit fearful of it getting dirty or stained...not the right attitude. Must start wearing this ASAP and the pieces separately - looking forward to wearing this out to dinner with a close girlfriend on Thursday. The challenge will be finding occasions worthy of this suit's Austin Powers Fabness, it will be easier to style each piece separately.</p> <p>Knits - my new to me&nbsp;<b>cardigan </b>bought second hand<b></b>. I am not really a cardigan type of person, but found this cardigan and thought it would be useful for my work from home lifestyle. I expect that it will be reasonably easy to wear and style. This piece is the reality of my life, the pink suit is my desired life.</p> <p><b>Red and black snakeskin boots.</b> New - I have a very old pair of red boots but whilst they are beautiful, rarely worn because the heel is higher than what I wear for all day shoes, this height is perfect. Don't expect this one to be tricky.</p> <p><b>Red dress</b> - this was almost edited out of my wardrobe because I fear it is too boho for my style. I want the forum's feedback on this dress. I don't think this will be hard to style but I may not feel fab wearing it.</p> <p><b>Red cape</b> - reversible - checked one side and so happy that I picked this item because I get variety from it and LOVE this cape - too easy!</p> <p><b>Long cream skirt</b> - purchased and still unworn - but expect that this will not be too much of a challenge.</p> <p><b>Checked shirt </b>- LOVE wearing this with its matching blazer, but may need to think about how to style it differently.</p> <p><b>Heart scarf</b> - that needs to be worn more. I am just not wearing this bigger scarf much. It is perfect for winter as it is a silk cashmere mix and the colours are fab. Don't think this will be difficult, I just need to get it out and wear it.</p> <p><b>Pleated skirt </b>- I love the fabric and colours especially the tiger stripes at the bottom of the skirt, but feel that the pleats are not doing me any favours and visually add bulk.&nbsp; A challenging piece that was bought on sale - so the terrible case of 'sales goggles' applied. Tricky! Will need the forum's help with this one.</p> </p>
