I think the tops are keepers, some variety that should fit my weather well. I'll have to see about the poncho come November...really hard to know right now.</p> <p>Angie, Susie, Suz, Thistle...yes, I'm happy about the shoes. If they work for me like I think that is a major HEWI. I love it that Angie says the black ones look like Chanel!</p> <p>Jenni, I live in the US mid-South. The past two winters we've only had short detours out of the dismal mid-50s. I have about 6 cashmere sweaters from past NAS that have barely gotten any play time the last two years, so I made the no cashmere sweater rule this year to keep myself on track. I dream of cold winters so it's easy to be tempted.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeping-so-far#post-1829571 Wed, 26 Jul 2017 07:05:08 +0000 Jenni NZ 1829571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Why do you have a no cashmere sweaters rule? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeping-so-far#post-1829519 Wed, 26 Jul 2017 02:50:01 +0000 Susie 1829519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Waving at my shoe twin! I got the black too.</p> <p>I think the tops all look pretty; I see Boho lite more than cute in the blue. And a bit of a stretch with the other sounds fun!</p> <p>I hear you on the warm winter. I have to remind myself that I don't need many heavy sweaters! But a cashmere poncho IS a good choice for outerwear so enjoy it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeping-so-far#post-1829513 Wed, 26 Jul 2017 02:44:56 +0000 Thistle 1829513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried the lounge pants, too, but not thick enough for my winters.</p> <p>Those gold quilted shoes are super fun!</p> <p>Sounds like you're a little on the fence about some of the shirts, and have solid keepers in the others. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeping-so-far#post-1829481 Wed, 26 Jul 2017 01:07:29 +0000 Angie 1829481@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>LOVE </b>seeing those sneakers in the mix.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeping-so-far#post-1829479 Wed, 26 Jul 2017 01:06:26 +0000 Suz 1829479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic!! So happy you found some great items. I LOVE the Ecco shoes. I have the non quilted version in white and adore them and think I will probably go for a black pair like this as well. You might also experiment with insoles in them for longer comfort -- I have some Superfeet soles that extend the wearability for me since I otherwise don't do well in flats over long periods.</p> <p>The tops look wonderful and the pants comfy! As for the poncho/ wrap, well, everyone deserves at least a <i>touch</i> of cashmere in her life!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeping-so-far#post-1829424 Tue, 25 Jul 2017 23:07:09 +0000 Gigi 1829424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice pieces! I personally don't think that the Caslon is too cute. I would call it feminine but not necessarily girly.</p> <p>I love the poncho! It looks really cozy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeping-so-far#post-1829420 Tue, 25 Jul 2017 22:47:01 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1829420@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The blouses are really pretty. It's fun to branch out into a little print here and there, isn't it? I like your justification of the poncho--sounds good to me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keeping-so-far#post-1829392 Tue, 25 Jul 2017 21:38:07 +0000 Peri 1829392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I still have a few more things on the way, but these are what I'm pretty sure I'm keeping. </p> <p>I managed to stay true to my no cashmere sweaters rule, but cheated a little on the poncho. I'm thinking of it as outdoors wear, maybe as a coat substitute for most of Fall. I sort of wish I had ordered the dark grey, and may stalk it for awhile.</p> <p>The 3 blouse/tops will be a good Fall/warm winter refresher for me. The last two winters have been too hot to wear many of my sweaters, so I'm thinking these might be good to wear through mid-November at least. I'm a little on the fence about the blue Caslon...cute but maybe too cute? And the shoulder ruffle maybe adds definition where I don't need it. It makes me smile though. The Pleione busy print is a little outside my comfort zone...not sure if that's really a bad thing. The Lush merlot top is a no-brainer. I have it in olive and love it.</p> <p>The Ecco shoes I got in black and think they will be good for me unless major walking is involved. At least they are the closest I've ever found to nice looking shoes that I can tolerate, so I have high hopes.&nbsp;</p> <p>The lazy morning pants I also got in black and seem really nice...warm enough for all winter for me. I would consider them home wear-PJs only but others may disagree. </p>
